I finally managed to get my injured spouse form filled out. This will allow me to stake my claim on MY part of the tax return. I've learned my lesson. From this year forward I'll file alone and grab my own deductions, including daycare and business deductions and child tax credit AND earned income credit .. screw ex wives that have no common sense, and people that fail to disclose stuff they 'd like to think has magically disappeared. I mean, you know.. you just don't *forget* about thousands!
Tomorrow is my birthday. I'll be 43. I know it's a number, but geez.. where did all the time go. Hubby decided that he was going to bake me a cake, and he's been working on it all afternoon. I thought that was really sweet of him, especially since he never cooks! Of course, he's doing a good bit of kissing up over the tax stuff still too. I was telling my boss about what happened with the taxes.. He said.. "oh wow!! I bet ya'll had a huge fight over that," My reply to him was.. " uh.. nope. *WE* didn't have anything to fight about, but *I* brought down the house!! He knew better than to say anything. I better get my freakin money!
We're in the middle of a Thunderstorm, the weather has been pretty rough this afternoon, but nothing like the damage that I saw in some places on CNN news tonight.
