We're famous...
but not in a good way! My mom called my wife who called me (you still with me?) to tell us that our name and address are in the paper for delinquent taxes! Woo hoo!
Turns out that our mortgage company, Countrywide, has yet to pay our 2005 taxes on the lot where we built our house. They have the bill (I've sent it to them twice and my wife has spoken with them on the phone); but, for some reason, they have yet to pay it.
The funniest part, to me, is that the original amount was only $161. A small price to pay for the ridicule and strange looks from your neighbors. Thanks, Countrywide!
