Its weird to find yourself being surrounded with death. My exiled neighbor that has banned the communications between my families ever since we moved into this house died recently. Suddenly their flowers are being delivered to our house, and we started to wonder. It's weird that we haven't spoken more than a paragraph to this family, but we are accepting these flowers for our neighbor that passed away. This was the neighbor who my dad has lawn competitions with, who can have the greenest,shortest grass. This is also the family that has battled with my family about property lines, we have lived with stakes marking off our property from theirs. This was the family never spoke to us, wouldn't wave to us when we waved. Maybe this family is just weird with communication or they are super paranoid about people believing that they are human. It's just odd to be signing for flowers for our dead neighbor who wouldn't speak to us. It hardly feels appropriate. But I did put a sympathy card in their mailbox along with a note saying that we had flowers delivered to our house while they were out of their house.
Taxes. I jokingly asked my dad the other day who invented taxes, because they should be shot. He jokingly retorted " Of course taxes were created by the democrats". A poke at me for sure, but I was actually interested in who to blame my frustrations at for creating sure a thing as taxes. Taxes actually go all the way back to Ancient Egypt. But i would much rather they not exist at all. At least I maintain my sense of humor and drudgingly filed my taxes last night. I leave you with some humor.
