we have ideas like buy some furniture and I'm buying my friend/upstairs neighbor an LCD TV because he's our pro-bono handyman/helper I'd also like to get some indulgence items like a nice watch and some model kits and a nice desk with which to work on the models on. I'm also going to be setting aside about $1,500 for Olivia's college fund.

How did you get $8,000 in a few days? I want some! Tell me how! Actually I want a million dollars. Or better yet (now I am Dr.Evil from Austin Powers) I will hold the world ransom for $100 billion!
have your mother become injured on the job, sue the company and be rewarded oodles of money in installments and then die 10 years later. This will be the final payment.

sounds like you have it under control. Surely some of that would go to your Mom. If you're young enough, some higher education would be a good investment; or you could invest in some short and long-term securities.
