meccahi | No Georgia...Just...No...

Today I got a letter from the Georgia Department of Revenue claiming that I owe them $217K in unpaid sales tax.

No... you read that correctly.

$217K

What is this.....I don't even..

I'm guessing that I'm going to be having a very interesting phone call with them tomorrow.

I'm painting to try and ease my stress. I know I have fucked up in the past... but this? No. I have my sales receipts..I have my banks statements...I can prove that I have only vended in Georgia for 20 days out of the year ( for this year), and for 4 days last year. But Holy Shit. Seeing numbers like that is fucking terrifying.

And of course now my folks are saying they don't want my uncle to move into the house...so I have no clue what to do about the cats and the house.

It's as if as soon as good things happen, the Universe decides to fling a truck full of poop my way.

There is some good... I got word today that I am now the proud renter and possibly soon to be owner of a ginormous booth at the Georgia show. It's the booth I lusted after all show there. Two stories.. full workshop downstairs, balcony, a nice open display front, a HUGE upstairs with a 4 poster bed, leather couch, ceiling fans, refrigerator, running water...everything. It's SUPER swank. And the price is something I couldn't say no to... AND the current owners are completely willing to make payments on a super flexible schedule.

So that is Good News.

We'll see what happens tomorrow. *sigh*
