Today is Monday and I won 227 million dollars in the lottery! I began thinking of ways to disperse my good fortune and I want to share just a few of the places that will be benefiting. First the mortgage company will be happy to hear that I will be sending a check to pay off my home. My sister will also be happy to hear that I am sending enough to cover hers as well! Ashley and Tony just received that new home they have been dreaming of complete with a herd of cattle, goats and that horse that Ashley has long wanted. Lena has received the new Chevy Avalanche to drive on rainy days in Evansville and also the Corvette convertible for those sunny days! I have given enough to the church to cover most any need that will arise and know that they will use the money wisely to benefit many people. Along with the church, the White County Ag Association is receiving a check to build the "Ira Hedges Memorial" rabbit barn, something Byron has wanted to do for a very long time. Prairie State Christian Service Camp be endowed funds to refurbish the buildings on the grounds and purchase any additional land that they may need. Milligan College will also receive funds for a scholarship program as well as the University of Southern Indiana, which will be used to benefit someone that might not otherwise get the opportunity to attend college. I am not certain if the water wheel is still in buffalo creek but if it isn't I'd like to see it put back in! Monticello Youth Football will be able to fund several scholarships this year with money that will be provided to them.....This is just the beginning of my Make a Difference Monday!
Wait,, what? It was a dream....I didn't win the lottery? Well the list will have to grow longer until the day actually comes and I am able to do the above and so much more! This is what I would do given the opportunity! Hope you had a make a difference moment. Ashley and Lena did...they adopted 2 kittens from the shelter today! Welcome to our family, Tyler and Myron!
