Well, I am a firm believer in celebrating ourselves from time to time. It is so easy to focus on the mistakes we make and say 'we could have done better', but what about all the things we have done right? Yes, ladies and men, remember to reward yourselves because you do deserve it.<br /><br />Have a blessed weekend!<br />LJIJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02946255354410667582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-61667116490424932942010-04-29T19:58:50.446-06:002010-04-29T19:58:50.446-06:00You mean what would I do AFTER paying off my mom&#...You mean what would I do AFTER paying off my mom's mortgage?<br /><br />I'd give half of it to charity, then maybe splurge on myself.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00031330729309997361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018235841365360426.post-52576527338206461662010-04-29T15:46:59.689-06:002010-04-29T15:46:59.689-06:00Oo that is a neat idea!

I usually just celebrate with my writer friends, eat something with a lot of sugar, and then relax for the night. <br /><br />It's kind of long story what I'd do if I had a million dollars.
