USA Tax preparation

Spring is here: blue skies, very nice temperatures. Every day.
In the USA I did do my tax filing every year with Tax preparation software that I bought, through Amazon, from HR Block: "TaxCut", an online download. Mid April is the deadline for filing.
This year was the first time I used a free online version of Intuit:"Turbo Tax". Available if your income is below a certain minimum.
It worked very well. 2 days ago I spend 45 minutes filing in questions and uploading the end result. The next day I got an email that both my Federal Tax and Arizona state tax filings were accepted!

It did not snow in Patras. At night rain and during the day cold wind from the North.

Today it looked like this

 Went to Downtown Patras this morning: paying the phone/internet bill at Cosmote. I got some more pictures of Carnaval (which, most likely, will be cancelled again like in 2020).

and 1 more picture of spring flowers, in the garden.

 Friday through Sunday was the best weather up to now. 25 degrees Celsius, no wind. 

Laundry day and dog siesta. 

I think this is a magnolia tree, starting to bloom.

At the same time severe snow in Holland and Germany......

After a couple of days with clouds, storm and colder weather,
back to cold early in the morning but nice during the day.
I know, I forgot to take my socks off...

Stupid dog..

In the past week it has been as cold as it gets in the winter, but apart from a sweater and, in in the evening, a down jacket I have not needed any extra heat. Which is good, because the olive tree branches do not want to burn on their own in the fireplace.
