July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
If you had to spend one million dollars in one day, what would you spend it on? *Dollar*   Quote from The Overstory: by Patricia Westerford. "The Secret of Life: Plants eat light and air and water, and the stored energy goes on to make and do all things." $1,000,000,000  Aha! The Millionaire one of my favorite shows at the time. First a new automobile. Probably a Jeep of some sort and a trailer to haul stuff. Pay off my mortgage and school loans, Give to some charities, Hire some work done on the house. I could do a lot of that on about 200,000. Make the dog run bigger and get another dog. This may be an under estimation. Then invest in something and see who in the family needed more cash for their own problems. If I absolutely had to spend it all in one day I bet I could find away. It's actually fun to think of ways to spend or even give away cash. I'd be penniless at the end of a day. Some ways to spend lots of cash: 1. Buy kindles and put them in food boxes to the hungry at Thanksgiving. 2. Build a cottage on some land and give it to a needy family. 3. Pay electric or cell phone bills for people who could not pay their own. 4.. Buy some solar panels and hire someone to install them for people who don't have a lot of cash to spend. Buy infrared heaters to run with the solar energy. 5. Put up a tower and rent out space for cell phones or TV channels. Put up a windmill. 6. Open a factory to turn bamboo into lumber for sale at a reasonable price. 7. Build a factory to turn recycled plastic into insulation for homes. 8. Fix my driveway. 9. Trade in my tractor for a newer one. 10. buy a snowblower with a cab on it. 11. If I started early in the morning I bet I could spend a lot of money in one day and sleep well at the end of the day. 12. Buy land and put up one room cottages and camp space for the homeless. Lots of thought will have to go into this one. 12. Start a school specifically for homeless people. Put them to work in my factories. Only if they want a job of course. {BYE FOR NOW)  |
