The awful truth of it.
Tax the land,
Tax the water
Tax the bed,
Tax the table
At which you’re taxed on food.
Tax your work,
Tax the pay,
You work for peanuts
Anyway!
Tax the cow,
Tax the sheep,
Tax the jeans,
Tax the coat.
Tax his tobacco,
Tax the beer
Tax you if you
try to think.
Tax the car,
Tax the petrol,
Find other ways
To tax our ass.
Then tax the coffin,
Tax the grave,
"Plus forgot to mention taxation by money printing, thus debasing the purchasing power of savings…"
When YOU’RE gone,
Do not relax,
The inheritance tax.

I was awake until 2.30am because the questionable neighbour across the road was receiving visitors all night.
Some cars left their engines running.
Some cars had three passengers, so four doors would open and close upon arrival and 20 minutes later, four doors would open and close to leave.
Some people had long conversations at the car - not clear enough for me to hear the gist of it, but loud enough to disturb my sleep or prevent it.
Sometimes they would speed off, revving the engine in the process.
Sometimes the resident would use the garage door to enter and exit the house, so he would use the remote control to open and close the door. Because the night breeze is coming from that direction, it carries the sound over our house.
This would not be so much of a problem except Harley woke me at 6am needing to go empty his bits - the last time he woke me for that was probably a year ago or more!
Running on 3.5 hours of sleep had me moving like a sloth.
I shelled 3 sand crabs and ate half for breakfast.
At midday, I came to bed for a nap but could only doze on and off for a couple of hours. I stayed in bed until 4pm and only got up to play with Harley.
Prior to that, I watched YouTube videos of people in other countries reacting to John Farnham singing “Help” accompanied by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
I must have watched that video of John Farnham 100 times and every time it takes my breath away, but when I see how others react to it, it moves me to tears. I can’t get enough of it.
Adoring Husband cooked chicken wings for dinner.
I watched the football and once again, am doing very poorly in the tipping, but so is everybody else. Once again I’m not bothered.
Now it’s time to sleep.
Nite all.
