Property taxes

I just sat down to pay my summer property taxes. The amount rang a bell, but I couldn't place it. Then it hit me - it's close to my pension check. I grabbed the calculator and discovered that my summer taxes are $4.11 more than my monthy income.

Maybe I should get more serious about moving out of Tara.

I'm sure there's a numerical significance her that I'm supposed to get and just don't.  Maybe it's my dyslexia with numbers?  You do know you can always file an appeal to have the taxes reappraised.. tell them Tara's last cotton crop failed, hoop skirts went up 12% this year and the weight of all that Spanish moss has broken all Twelve of your Oaks!  ¤Holly
