Annoying!

I called our payroll accountant last week to get them to draft us up the letter stating how long we had been in business. Read the saga down below if you don't know what I am talking about. *grin*.

Anyway, today (a week later) they called and said they were faxing me something. I said, "Is it my adoption letter?" and she said, Yes. Great!

The fax came in and I was fuming! The fax *actually* said that the accountant wanted the income tax notices of assessment, as far back as I had them!!! I called her and barely held myself. WHY didn't I get a call on Wednesday when the accountant came back from holidays. Now, IF the letter gets worded correctly (and doesn't need revisions), by the time it gets to the agency it will have been two weeks since I asked for it! WOW! Good thing I am not on a deadline yet! This fits into our homestudy and that is going on for another two months.

Speaking of that. We haven't heard from our agency yet, regarding the social worker booking our first meeting. So we lost a week there. God's timing...

Anyway. So here we are in the first week of school and I do *not* want to leave the house because I am on a roll, working out the bumps in the road and fine tuning having four students again this year. But it was either dash to the accountant or wait til Monday and put this off even further. So, into the car we went, schoolbooks in hand. Nope! They did not get a 45 minute break as we drove there and back! *grin* So hopefully, on Monday, it will be ready and say EXACTLY what we need it to say, or I will be starting all over again with another accountant! ICK!

BTW - When I was trying to hold my cool (remember I sent them about 20 documents showing how long we had been in business) I told her that I had 45 million things to pull together for different agencies etc, but I had thought *they* would be the simple ones!! I don't think she was very sympathetic. LOL!

UGH!!! There's always one fly in the ointment isn't there? For us it was the doctor and the medical forms! Hopefully they'll get their acts together and get you what you need soon.
