January 27, 2012 Mom Time

If I Had a Million Dollars…

The stay-at-home mom gig is great. Except for the lack of pay. Major bummer. Especially when I’m finding all of these amazing things for my wardrobe and home. Not to mention I wouldn’t mind placing my beater of a car…

So, if I had a million dollars, THIS is what I would want:

This house, which happens to be for sale. It’s a block from my kid’s preschool and has an amazing pool and guest quarters! A girl can dream. And, if she’s really lucky, win the lottery.

So now that I’ve bought my dream house, I have about $150K left for additional spending. Let’s spruce up my ride:

Yep, I’d like a Range Rover. In a light gold color. With a tan interior. Please.

Ok, down to 60K. Dude, I’m going through dollars pretty fast here. So let’s add:

Because I’m going to need to look cute while I’m lounging by new pool. Down another $260. Just a drop in the bucket.

So let’s get a cover up in case I need to run an errand:

Love this Holmes & Yang slip dress. Only $995. So now I can look pretty at home and out on the town.

Guess, I better get something for the kids.

This should keep them entertained. And at $52,000 it darn well better!!!

Hmmm… I’ve only got a couple grand left. So, here you go hon:

A mere $6,000 for a pimped-out bicycle.

Bummer. I’m all spent out. Probably shoulda put a little aside for college. Oh well. If all else fails the kids can move into their pirate ship when they turn 18.

What would you buy if you had a million dollars?
