So my mom (who's trained to do taxes) told us that we're probably going to owe like $4,000 in federal taxes this year. These are the perils of working freelance for a company that doesn't take taxes out--and making lots of money from them. I get it. And we're apparently in a higher tax bracket this time because we made more money (H got a raise). But this sent H into a bit of a rage because we supposedly made x thousand more compared to the previous year, but we don't have the savings to show for it. He claims he's not blaming me, but clearly he thinks that I spend too much for the smaller amount I make (I'm also at home when our daughter gets home from pre-K and on her days off, saving money on daycare/sitters). Like he was slamming doors and throwing things around. So tomorrow should be a fun marriage counseling session...
