What would you do if you won the lottery?

If I won something like this, I believe I would take care of the people in my life and there are random people I would help as well…the little old woman who’s yard is never mown on Woodrow ave. she needs some repairs on her house new windows and doors and whatnot and the landscaping done. The lady I see driving in Prattville who had practically duct taped her car back together, we’d get her a new car, or this one fixed (If she’s attached for sentimental reasons)

I’d fix my house all the repairs that get put off, build a wraparound porch and build up my little garden area into something special.

I’d give a generous donation to my church before I spent another dime on my own, firstfruits as they are.

Mostly I’d try to use it to better the world around me.

Amanda

Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc.

My first name…Amanda…is a Latin name which means lovable, worthy of love. Ironically I am not sure I’ve ever solidly been loved for most of my life. It was a popular name in the years I was born and there were numerous Amanda’s around me throughout my school years. I have been called Mandy-manders- and manda much of my life.

I’ve always liked my name and its meaning. Just never felt it truly embodied how the world treats me. Then I guess it treats much of us the same.
