With $200 and a day off I would take my three sisters out for lunch and something fun... maybe pedicures. 😀

On my day off I would take my older friend with significant arthritis on a slow shopping trip going to used/antique stores and help her reminisce about various unique treasures.  We would enjoy a late lunch and take her for a car ride to her 'old haunts' and listen to her stories about 'back in the day'.

I would watch a movie, get a massage, and go to a nature center.  I'd give the $200 to my grandsons in a trust.

Seeing that my birthday is a couple days away, if I won it would be a nice birthday surprise, my daughter would take me to a lovely dinner, and I would like to go to Vegas with the remainder.

I would go to Whole Foods ( my happy place) and get something really good to feed my body. I would buy some flowers and candles to feed my spirit. And spend some time outside to feed my soul. There would also be good wine and a delicious romantic movie to finish off the day!

I would probably donate the winnings to a local charity, like Second Harvest Food Bank. They have been SO GOOD to our family, since the pandemic began and I got laid off from my job last July. I have been looking for work, but we have had several members of our family get sick - and I have used my time off to spend time with each one of them, doing what I can to help them in their time of need.

Of I had a day off with $200 I would spend the money on perennials and soil to plant a shade to part sun flower 🌹 🌺 garden with a fairy theme. The children in the neighborhood are always inquiring about "what I'm planting today" and they are pleased when I allow them to help.
