The Audacity of Dope

thinkthrice's picture

The chickens have come home to roost. Mr. "I can get a job the next day" didn't.

Actually two and a half weeks went by before he got a new job. And guess what was due during that time? Yep, the dreaded CS. Chef is NEVER in arrears. It's quite a source of pride and ego for him. :puzzled:

So yesterday he gets a nastygram from CSEU stating even though he had a downward mod to $185, they are recapturing arrears to the tune of $278 a week till he makes up almost $700 of arrears.

He goes into a tantrum immediately and says to ME "I thought YOU were paying it."

The PAS Just Keeps On A Flowin'

On FB, one of the skids friends wrote a post about how "this man that was more than a father than my real father " has cancer and is dying.

Tragic to be sure, but guess who totally "liked" that post? You'd be right if you guessed Pumpkinhead (SS18) and Dominatrix (SD16). Who rarely chime in on this "friend's" posts.

EWWWW The Girhippo Starts Yet Another Home Business. . .

This time she is catering SOUPS! Yep she's planning on being a Soup Nazi!

I read her health inspection report. In plain site it said "discussed using bare hand contact."

Knowing the hygiene habits of that entire clan, i.e. the Gir incessantly bites her nails, Prince Hygiene NEVER wiped, flushed, washed, bathed, shampooed or showed up with properly groomed hair, nails, etc., I would NEVER think about patronizing ANYTHING out of her kitchen!!

For Those Doing a CO. . .

I know this has been blogged about before but I can't emphasize ENOUGH how claiming the skids on taxes HAS to be rotated regardless of even or odd number of skids!!

Why do I say this? Because as they start to age out, the deduction/credit for them gets less and less. Something I really didn't pay attention to--I'm no tax accountant, quite obviously.

For example:

2014 is the last year that Chef can claim Pumpkinhead as he'll turn 19 this year.

UPDATE: Furbaby is Ok--Wasn't What I Expected!

Younger furbaby (a bombay cat) had some fairly bad tooth decay that went systemic.

Which fooled me because his teeth are still very white. Guess I wasn't looking too hard at the gumline. He had to have two teeth extracted. I've always given him dry high end food. In fact he prefers it to soft food, or so it seems.

I've alway been vigilant about their water dish. It's one with a pump to keep the water fresh; I disinfect it and add "feline teeth" additive to it.

I don't brush their teeth as they can barely stand having their nails trimmed.

Twelve Business Days and Counting Since the Last Court Date. . .

And no sign of the two 8332 forms from the Girhippo. Odds are she has already done her taxes (married filing jointly with StepDaddyBigBucks) claiming Dominatrix (SD16) and Prince Hygiene (SS12) as usual.

This is despite the CO saying that Chef is to claim "at least one child" which she has interpreted over the last ten years as Chef claims the oldest and she claims the other two. Instead of doing the 2/1/2/1 alternation like everyone else in the free world does.

O/T Tightwads Unite--What do you Do to be FRUGAL?

I'll share some of mine:

I cut my automatic dishwasher tablets in half. Chef put in a water softener soon after we moved in so unless your water is soft, it might not work that well.

I use my foodsaver to seal dry goods packages. In fact I have a "broken" foodsaver (vacuum died after a month) and I have a high end sealer that won't seal crackers, chips, cereal, flour bags. But the Foodsaver will on "seal."

Ode to my Fakebook Account--SM Merit Badge for Self Preservation (Blog Hog Alert)

Who's got one? To keep on top of the next evil machination of the BM and/or skids when there is ZERO communication and just a governmental bill for matriarchy supp...errr I mean "child support?"

If I didn't have my fakebook acct, I would have never found out that Pumpkinhead (OSS18) emancipated himself by moving out of the Girhippo's.

Or all the times that Dominatrix (SD16) simply skipped school.

Or the many, many times that the Gir allows Dom to stay over at friend's houses during the school week (classroom attendance, homework, classwork OPTIONAL)
