TAXING
OK. Yesterday was the dentist. That took a piece of the afternoon. A big piece. I had to wait some and then stop at the store on the way home for some extra milk. A misfire on the store visit on Friday.
My tooth is good though. I lost a filling and my man Dr. Bruno made me a new front tooth. It was a big filling.
What else took up so much time that I couldn't blog?
I can't remember.
But it was a busy, hectic day.
Oh. I know. I got a letter from the IRS about my return for 2006. My investment company told them that I received securities when I didn't. An obvious accounting error which took time and considerable mental and emotional energy until I got it sorted out. Or as sorted as it could be before my accountant and money manager take a look at it.
There is something that makes the blood run cold when I get something like this.
When I opened the letter, I figured it was the envelopes to mail my next year's quarterlies. No. It was a fucking rewrite of my return.
I am OK now though. Not too upset. I just want it resolved. But it will take t-i-m-e. What I don't like is the assumption of guilt. You have to prove innocence.
Fine when it is another tax cheating citizen but not OK when it happens to me who is innocent of any wrong doing and the mistake belongs to my investment company.
Today, I have time to spend with two friends and a guy to look at the tile in our bedroom. Still having small 'bubbles' show up. The tile rising up in a mound. I think it is because we had water in the room a couple of times.
Will we have to replace all the tile? Shit.
What else in bizzy today?
I have cut my own hair and taken a shower. The two definitely go together. Haircut first. Then wash off the little tiny fallout hairs.
I trimmed the roses. No post cutting shower here.
So here I am with a limited amount of blogging going on today.
In fact, none except this.
