My dream if I ever win the lottery has a few different stages to it. Some would be quick, others would take time to setup. We all have to have dreams and these are a few of mine -
1. The first thing I would do is buy property, build my home and kennel.
My Home won't be a huge thing, just enough for me and maybe a few friends when they visit but will definitely be geared to have furkids LOL The kennel will have rooms for my furkids and a play area with an outside area for them to come and go as they please. Their rooms would have the ability to be separate from the rest in case of sickness or just so they each can get away from each other :-)
2. Buy the business I work for and franchise it to other places in Canada & the USA. Its an awesome premise but I ain't gonna talk about it LOL
3. Set up a trust fund for the fan community Land of Dreamers (grin) .. I think it is an awesome group of people that are supporting and promoting some really awesome musicians in their journeys to share their musical talents! The fund would be available to members of the fan community to help pay for advertising and venues so that the musicians could play to people that they may not otherwise have access to.
4. I would love to setup a refuge with a recording studio. A place where musicians associated with The Land of Dreamers could go to in order to write and record music. Tthe refuge would be there for them so they could get away from the craziness with family and friends and be able to just relax. And for the Land of Dreamers community to have get togethers whenever the musicians aren't using it.
5. A couple of recording studios where unknown artists could record their first CD without having to come up with seed money upfront. Perhaps a nominal fee would be agreed upon to be paid once their career gets going or maybe they could pass the favour on .. something to think on :-)
6. A canine rescue refuge - this would have a caretakers house but the main builidng would be a HUGE kennel type building to house many rescued canines. In - house vetting, training etc would be available. The goal of this refuge would be to rescue abused and abandoned dogs and help them become a member of society again. The refuge would be such that if it ended up that the animal was too far past being able to deal with humans in a family situation again, it would live out its live at the refuge. I have tons of ideas for this because it has been a lifetime dream to help animals, especially dogs and wolfdogs.
While the long term dreams were being done ..
1. Visit my best friend Risa in Arkansas who I met online over 10 years ago but have yet to meet in person
2. Donate some money to the Malamute Help League in Canada (love mals!)
3. Pay $38,000 to Robert Pattinson for a Kiss .. OMG .. he will never live that one down ROFLOL (couldn't resist putting that in)
4. find a good tayberry farm and make more tayberry wine .. OH GODs this is absolutely YUMMY wine!
5. buy a new car
6. travel to a few places that I have always wanted to go. Rome, Italy, London, New York City, Disney World (yeah, still a kid at heart)
7. buy a horse. have wanted one since I was a kid .. and the riding lessons too LOL
