My THOUSAND Dollar experiment....Day 18


My day, 18. $18,000. There is so much to do. First, tithe. I have been thinking about where the money would go today and I really have to stop and think.....but I have decided that today, the $1800 would go to a sweet Priest, Fr. Pat, who runs a daily morning prayer e-mail that I subscribe to. He is going through chemo right now, so keep him in your prayers. He is so humble about asking for donations. I hope he will be surprised.

As for the remaining $16,200, I would take that money and put $10,000 into a credit card for Gavin to have a college money. It would be so much fun to hand him the money and say, here is a loaded up credit card for school ONLY. Then I would take the other money and spend it on re-decorating my other sons' room. It is a long room, so there is lots to do. I also have a linen closet in there as well that I would re-do. Lots of paint, new beds, new curtains, black out blinds, pictures in frames, new furniture...all the trimmings. If there was enough money left over, (which I doubt) I would have Elizabeth come in to do their closet. If not, I would get those magic hanger things and put lots of them in the closet for more space.

All the Best!
Your Friend,
Alicia
