Default Ticked off, but should I be? (OT)

That's why I'm planning to stay here. I have to work out the
logistics, but that's what's going to happen. She's turned over all
the financial stuff to me; I make sure her bills are paid. I make
sure she eats. I make sure she takes her prescriptions. I cook, I
clean, I do the laundry and the shopping and keep her company. I'm
her caregiver and I have no problem with that.

What I'm going to do with this particular situation is (1) photocopy
and mail the 2006 return with the cancelled check and (2) find a
reputable, qualified tax firm to deal with the 2007 stuff. So far,
the IRS hasn't mentioned 2007 so maybe this woman did file for an
extension. But it's been my experience, even if she didn't, the IRS
is generally a year behind anyway. LOL

To add insult to injury, a big storm blew through last evening and
the power flashed off and on, briefly, twice. The circuit breaker
for part of the master bathroom blew and I can't get it to reset; it
keeps tripping. Now I have to find an electrician. sigh When it
rains, it pours!

Make sure the 2006 return you mail is signed.

I suspect there will be few or no problems with the 2007 return. I
believe you mentioned they paid estimates. If she doesn't owe
anything there is nothing to base a penalty on. Make sure somewhere
on the 2007 return it says deceased for your father. That can take
care of penalty problems as well.

Are there any outlets in the master bath with little red buttons in
the middle? Don't know what they are called but sometimes you have to
press them before you reset the breaker.

I'm glad you and Persia are settling in. And hope the summer isn't
terrible hot.
