Looking for a Tax Break!
a year ago
So it's been a while since I've uploaded a journal here, so I wanted to give an update.
I've been doing alright. I'm getting relationships sorted out, learning a lot about myself and my interests. Realized that I'm a bit too much of a people pleaser at times. I'm getting older at 43, life doesn't make things easier.
I lost some teeth, likely related to a combination of long-term exposure to Carbon Monoxide at a previous job, genetic gum recession and stress. I'm not proud about it, but about two years ago, I ended up going to the emergency room. I also had some teeth pulled and removed, and still have a broken wisdom tooth that I'll need surgery for. Something I can't afford right now.
I tried streaming, and realized that I simply don't have the mental capacity to handle it, but I made some money on that.
Between both of these things, moving expenses and just.. life.. I've ended up owing quite a bit last year in taxes -- and quite a bit in back taxes. The streaming in addition to a wage increase to something almost livable has left me owing $2k from last year alone.
So between that and owing for years where I didn't have health insurance, I racked up at $5k tax bill. I've set up a payment plan to pay it off, but it's going to take 3 years from the start, and that means no savings, no emergency funds, no moving around money. No flexibility. I've cut back what I can, but I'd really love some help. I'm going to keep this going long term, and I've already received $1k from folks, so I paid off what's left of medical and have put the rest towards taxes. If you'd like to help, share or donate below. I'd really appreciate it.
From the Big Bad Skunk Dad to you. Thank you.
