First Good Laugh


Tonight I actually had the first good laugh I've had in a long time. I was actually in tears.

Apparently, my aunt did my uncle's taxes. She thought he should be receiving $450 but when returned, it seemed that he owed $450.

Quite the pickle!

So she asked me to look at it and input it on TurboTax.

I can do mine on there, no problem. However, since he receives a pension, bought a house, has medical deductions, etc., it was a bit out of my league. Yes, they make it easy, but there was some paperwork she couldn't find and, when I thought she was off to go and look for it, she moved along to another project.

Well, I attempted to give it a go based on the information that I had.

At one point, I entered a number and in regard to federal taxes owed, the number had shot up well over a million dollars!

Sorry buddy...best I can do...better get that checkbook out, big guy!

Lol...I called the only person who would get a chuckle out of that...his son.

The jovial mood was dampened somewhat by the poor reception on my cell, but I'm still laughing.

And that's all that matters! :)

Postscript...the laughter continued with this...

Karen,

Yeah, but senators don't have to pay for years until they're caught!
