What will you do?

Poll: (This one is for you to write down formally or on the back of the Comcast bill envelope),

You just lost your job. The company is going out of business and they laid you off. Lucky for you, the severance package was healthy and the house, car and insurance is handled for a year. So...what will you do?
This is an opportunity to do something you've always thought of. Okay, maybe it's not starting a cafe. It doesn't have to be so grand. Maybe it's finally a chance to take your camper across the country while stopping at every tourist attraction/scenic view along the way. Maybe you'll visit all those long lost relatives on your family tree? Or paint all of Colorado's 14'ers. I want you to put some thought into it while having fun. What would you do if you didn't have to work for the next year? Make a list, write down details, maybe you have a laundry list so how long would you do each item? If this is a trip, who would you take? If this is a business, write a short business plan.

Here's a snipit of what I might do:
We would buy a used pop up camper to tow behind the truck. We would load up the truck with provisions, pups, generator and laptops. We would drive down to the keys and camp out. In the evenings and early mornings, we will explore the local area and parks. During the day I will write stories and the husband will do the work for which he is paid to do. (he currently works at home so we'll make him a moving office thanks to his mobile hotspot). After the Keys, we will explore the whole state of Florida. We will explore the whole state taking in towns, sanctuaries, state parks and fish shack. It'll take 2 month before we're ready to divorce so I'll come up a new idea for my remaining 10 months.

Take 10 - 15 minutes and have fun with this but put your heart and hopes in there too. It's good to explore your dreams.

You have to dream before your dreams can come true.
