Warm days are teasing me

Yesterday was a nice warm spring day...wait it is not spring? I guess El Nino strikes again!
El Nino is teasing us with this warm temps every once in a while. When we think it is going to be so cold it gets warm. When we think it is going to be warm it gets cold. I don't know how to dress in the morning until I venture outside and see what the temps are.
I know there are places that you can bet on the temps to be one way or the other. Not here in North Texas. No we don't ever know what it is going to be so we have two sets of clothes we have to carry with us just in case it is one way or the other.
Today is Saturday and I plan on doing some painting. I had started a painting last week that I have yet to finish. I have several paintings back at the studio that I have not completed but then I just don't want to go back there so I guess I will have to retrieve them and bring them with me.
Yesterday we drove all the way to Canton Texas to pay our land taxes. When we got to the office of Tax Rip Off...we found the line to be in yards not feet. I do not like to stand in line! We decided to mail it in and do our homestead later next month. I should have known the line would be long this  time of the month.
We went ahead and drove by the post office and picked up our mail and mailed our taxes then went to visit Sherri's brother and his wife. Rodney is a diabetic and has had a lot of trouble with his legs. They have ordered him a lift chair so that he can stand up without having to have assistance. He has nurses several times a week show up to check on him and help him exercise his legs. We enjoyed our visit and then went on out to the lake property to check on things. 
Everything was good there. You know after I complained about them not fixing the roads out there...low and behold they had put some gravel on the road and smoothed it out!!! Shame on me for speaking out like that.
Not much more going on than that so I will fade to black...

Sometimes it seems like we wait forever for the local municipalities to fix things we feel they never will. Then we make a statement and so do others and Presto they finally fix the problem. That's why we also considered going Fulltime so if there is that big a problem we can easily move to a place that takes care of its problems before it becomes a major issue.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
