Friday Five
You have just won one million dollars:

1. Who do you call first? Assuming that my immediate family would be hanging over my shoulder when this happened, I would have to say my sister.

2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself? Pay off debts! (Then maybe a more reliable used car.)

3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else? Something nice for Embot, reliable used cars for Fran and Bridget, orthodontia for Martha, a year’s supply of haircuts and a MacAddict renewal for Chuck and a LEGO spree for Eddie.

4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom? My parish and some good causes, such as The Women’s Center and Aid for Women. And nice surprises for friends.

5. Do you invest any? If so, how? Maybe. I don’t know. Never had enough money to make it worthwhile to investigate my options.
