It's warming up! Yea!!!!!! Not that being able to change up the wardrobe isn't interesting. I dug way in the back of some boxes and found hats I haven't worn since high school. Needs must. There is one other thing that comes with the New Year. If you have not yet applied for your homestead exemption, you have until April 1 to apply. You can apply in person at the Camden County Court House building in Woodbine or here is a link: https://www.camdencountyga.gov/1034/Homestead-Exemptions
This exemption can lower your taxes on only your primary residence. Anything that helps you pay less tax is worth looking into. I've been working on my taxes so I have tax on the brain at the moment. It is always a joyful moment when I can get my packet off to the tax preparer. I'm hoping to do that by next weekend. We're just waiting for one more document for John. Then, it is time to find some FUN THINGS GOING ON:
