The time had come for me to file an income tax return. You have to file it from Feb. 15 to Mar. 15 in Japan. I did my own taxes. My 2nd and 3rd daughters had a dental treatment for straightening their teeth last year and I paid a lot of money for it.
The tax return that I calculated was as much as I expected. I felt happy and I was keeping this calculation secret from my wife and the tax return was to become my pocket money.
However, the sad thing is, the calculation sheet was found by her today. It's my fault for leaving it on the tray of the printer. The bank account that the tax refund was dispatched to was changed from my private account to the household account. I'm in the doghouse!
(Vocabulary)
dispatch 〈手紙・荷物など〉 を送る, 発送する
be in the doghouse (informal) (へまをやって) まずい状況にある
