A couple of weeks ago, I said to Certain Man, “I went to the mailbox this morning and found pornography in there!”
He looked positively askance, and said “What in the world? Who would have sent such a thing to us?”
I said, “It came from Papaleo, Rosen, Chelf and Pinder’s office. It was our tax planner!”
He looked sort of bewildered and said, “Why would you call that pornography?”
“Because it is so offensive to me,” I wailed. “I almost cannot bear to look at it!”
. . . And, to be honest, I haven’t even broken the seal on that pornography. But today, I delve into its offensive contents and break out the ledgers and files and try to make some order of the past year and all its many financial trials.
This is a most repulsive exercise.
Good morning! Better to laugh than to cry over it, you’re going to be okay………..maybe.
I had to do the same thing last week. I’m now waiting to hear from our tax preparer to see when I can bring all that “pornography” into him. Hope it’s not too stressful for you today!
a trial in our lives!
I agree wholeheartedly!!! But the last time I went to the post office to mail a bulky envelope to the IRS I moaned about it to the guy at the window. We’ve known Norman for years from our involvement in Little League when the boys were growing up. He looked me in the eye and said, “You know, it’s a small price to pay to live in this great country.” He’s right and I was a little ashamed. Now, even though I still HATE working on tax stuff, I think about it just a little differently….
Can I EVER relate to that!?!?!
I’m glad we don’t have our own business and I can usually do our taxes. Last year we had someone else do them and it cost us more than it should have. I’m going to go back to doing them again. If you ever really did get porn in your mailbox you wouldn’t call tax papers that. (I know )
When I become presiden the ONE thing I intend to do is get rid of this rediculous circus that we all endure every year! There HAS to be an easier way.
Here’s how I handle the tax stuff: I don’t. That is strictly my husband’s territory! Best wishes.
You are tooo funny, hope you are enjoying the snow I sure am!
