Argh!
Last night we received a phone call from the dear MIL. Since we recently moved, we forgot to get a change of address for one ONE measly bill. In our defense it doesnt come in neither of our name but, we did, kind of, not really, agree to repay this loan. Long story short, It's a parent student loan so though my partner received the education the parent should be paying it. Now this bill hasnt been paid in 3 months so it needs to be paid and we dont have the money!!!! Aye Caramba! So, this morning we scrambled to transfer money from one bank acct to another to get these people off our back. This is one bill I hate to pay so I made my better half responsible for it even tho Ipay all the bills. She isnt very good at keeping track of these sort of things hence the non payment.
There was actually a time she didnt pay the bills for almost a year. That is until I got my hands on them. What a mess! I almost fell apart when I found this out. No wonder we were living the high life. Dinner out, shopping galore. Geez! Thank goodness we dug ourselves out of that mess. Took almost 3 years before we could see the light..
