April Is The Cruelest Month 😏

I was reminded of this poem when I was doing the bills today. So many yearly bills come due in April and it is like this every year, but for some reason it always sort of surprises me. I was looking at various subscriptions thinking I could cut some out, but I don't want to, so it's time to suck it up, pay the bills , and move on. This isn't a rant , just an observation that life is expensive and some months are " Cruel." LOL. Happy spring !🪻🌷🪻

Those property tax bills are cruel 😀. And me, I guess that I am not very bright because I always seem to be surprised when they arrive in the mail.  Already??? So soon??? Didn't I just pay this dang bill?  They always catch me off guard but I should know very well when they are coming due.

@PhilaLady1  I think it's just because the years go by so fast, it seems that we just paid the bills.

I do not find this month of April to be cruel. I was born this month. There are five in my family, four of us were born within two weeks in this beautiful Spring month of APRIL (19th, 24th, 26th and 29th).

No-- most the months are the same for me, nothing awful ---- Dec is one month I dislike,  mostly because I married an idiot 47+ years ago----huge mistakeWoman Sad and  Feb--when said idiot was born. March is my fave----my divorce from the former described idiot--was grantedWoman Very Happy No outrageous bills are due anymore as I am free of a house and a car.
