The property tax notices are in the mail.  Will your value be up or down, and subsequently how much will your taxes have changed?  One can challenge the assessment, but there are certain rules to follow and who knows how much time and stress that could take.
Even heard once of someone challenging because they didn’t think it was high enough.  Hmmmm, I guess there could be some intelligent reasoning behind that, but frankly it escapes me at the moment!

Regardless, this is a sure sign of fall.  Proceeded by huge spider webs in the stores and talk of ‘Black Friday’ already.  You know, that day where everyone not in their right mind gets up right after going to bed on Thanksgiving Day, puts on as many clothes as they can layer, and waits in line meeting lots of new people.  Does have potential for replacing an online dating service perhaps?  It also requires a certain amount of ‘pre-training’ in the standing, shuffling, pushing, shoving and all day marathon departments.  Definitely endurance too.
If you should wish to ignore all that, grab a book, blanket, hot cup of something and retire to a comfy chair….  www.brainstormspublishing.com
