If I won the Lottery...

I bought a lottery ticket today. Mostly for super selfish reasons...like wanting to just move out of this dump we are currently living in and into a forever home.

Not a mansion--I'm not that materialistic. But I have always dreamed of living in one of those super cute sea cottages I have only seen in paintings or on puzzle boxes...

Queue dream sequence....



...Yep, that's the one.
So lovely.
(P.S. Magical Lottery Fairy, I would totally dig a new 2015 Honda Pilot as well.)

But reality is what is it is, and today has been another day of vigorous cleaning, going through personal items, and stuffing our lives into boxes--worrying slightly about where our fate is going to bring us in the coming weeks. See, we move out of here in less than a week now, and I still have no idea where we are going, or quite honestly how we are going to pay for the move.

But while I was packing, I found all the postcards I bought while I was on my "Kind Hart in America" Trip last year. It made me instantly think back to how exciting and rewarding the trip was, and how much I long for our next journey. 

I also found notes I made to myself about original plans I had for the trip---I guess I thought I was going to raise a million dollars or win the lottery because I had things listed like: pay someone's rent, pay for someone's bridal dress, or help someone fill up their gas tank.

So it made me think, if I won the lottery, how many nice things could I do for people? What kind of trip could I make it into? And to keep it a little on the selfish side, how exciting it would be to finally become the rv'ing hippie that I just know am destined to be...lol.

So for my next blog...just for fun, I am going to prepare the ultimate, "Lottery Winning Kindness Roadtrip." 

I would do it tonight, but I think I should probably make dinner right now, and finish all the cleaning I can for the night. I have to go to work at 5am tomorrow and my parents are also driving in from Louisiana tomorrow evening.

Hope you are all enjoying your evenings!

Be Kind,
Kelly Airhart

1,520 days: Overwhelm.

It is 8:49am. Everyone is still asleep... I have my "happy light" shining into my  peripheral  vision, and my vitamins and medic...
