It's April...that wonderful month when the soft-serve cones return from their winter hibernation.  

Wonderful time of the year!

April, bloody April.  April is always a busy month for me.  Because I was born in April, I must inspect and register my vehicles.  Because I drive cars until no one can, this is usually an adventure.  April is also the month Uncle Sam demands his pound of flesh.  This year was just a little bit worse because our regulator was on the premises last week and I had to deal with a recall on one of my vehicles that would necessarily delay its inspection by a week.

 

Assessment went well. recall was uneventful, and I finished my taxes this morning.  So, on April 5, I am done except for two inspections and a visit to the tax collector's office.  I rewarded myself for this with a bloody mary, two slices of reheated pizza, Top Gun, and a nap.

 

Having checked in here, I am unofficially off the clock.

 

Happy Shopping!

Hoping for some more April showers here.

It’s April and it’s been showering all day here. Taxes are done except the painful part of sending them even more money. 
 

Not looking forward to work tomorrow. Think I need a couple of weeks off with nothing to do.

We're having a rainy day today and tomorrow, with the potential for severe weather.   Again.

We had a tornado in our county a few miles from here on Monday, and scary weather a couple weeks before that.  I'm about over it!

Glad for the actual rain though.

 

This week is our spring break.  We have a list of things we want to do.  We bought 30 bags of mulch today, and will likely get at least 30 more.  Ugh.

Well, I just lived through destructive tornadoes and massive flash flooding the last 4 days here in TN.  The local meteorologists were on air for 18+ hours non-stop on Wednesday and Saturday covering the weather.  It was said that the NWS out of Memphis issued over 100 tornado warnings last week.  Unbelievable weather event that I don’t want to have endure again.  My small hometown was hit by a deadly tornado 2 years ago, almost to the day, and another tornado hit in the night Friday/Saturday.  There was damage but thankfully it was not massive and not deadly like 2 years ago.  I am weather weary for sure.   Otherwise Happy Spring to everyone!

Oh gracious how scary!  Glad you are okay.

 

We had another tornado hit our county this morning...  2 Mondays in a row now.
