Somehow she thinks I cannot boil a couple of eggs without very detailed instructions. Okay, I will give it to you that once I did try to boil eggs without putting water first. But still…
“Pls. switch it on”??? What was she thinking? I was going to just stare at the eggs and hope they merrily boil away?
Man, “I don’t get no respect” around this house 🙂
The good news is that she acknowledges that she is forgetful … and therefore writes down lists.
The bad news is that she is too forgetful to even remember to take the list with her.
When I called her up, she reassured me that she remembered the four items. So far so good. The tactical mistake on her part was to try and prove it by trying to rattle off the items from memory…
Like I was saying …. 🙂
This morning, I woke up early to start doing the taxes. Duly downloaded Turbo Tax which I have been using for over 15 years to prepare my taxes. It is undoubtedly one of the most user friendly software I have ever seen. In any case, Turbo Tax imported all the necessary information from last year’s file so that I do not have to re-enter all the mundane details like name, social, dependents etc.
And then, it came up with this screen! I owe $9 of taxes!!
You can imagine how flummoxed I was – “Wait a minute – I have not entered anything about 2015 yet!!! And you yourself prepared last year’s taxes. How can I start with a tax liability already?”
As you can imagine, things only got worse from there!! 🙂
