Has anyone been watching this new show? If so, what do you think? So far, I kinda like it, but I'm wondering if it's just because I'm so desparate to watch anything halfway decent on TV right about now!!!

Most financial advisors say when you receive a windfall...
After paying any necessary debts, etc., put the remainder in a CD or money market account and let it accumulate interest for a while so you can consider your options. You don't want to jump into (or out of) anything on the spur of the moment.
I guess the question is, is this a job you want to keep? If so, I think the advice the MTSO below gave is great - talk to your supervisor or lead, explain the situation, and ask if you can take some time off and still have a job waiting for you when you get back.
If it's not a job that you want to keep, then don't worry about it. Quit, spend some time with your daughter, then look for another job. You will certainly have enough money to tide you over!
P.S. For financial advice, check out one of Dave Ramsey's Endorsed Local Providers in your area. (link below) Look at the top right corner of the page under Trusted Services. Their goal is not to tell you what you should do with your money, but teach you how to make the right decision about your money and investments.
Good luck and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
