Red's Thread - come in and read a bit, post a bit, and lick a bit... okay... alot!!!

I've done it a couple times for myself, in the past, and last year for the eldest, she had to go in and make changes this year when she changed schools. I know what you mean about it NOT being FUN! It is NOT!

It shouldn't be difficult to do. They base everything on your income and what school you're going to attend. So you'd think you could give them all your tax information and tell them the school code and everything could be pulled from that. But nope, it's not that simple, though again it all comes down to that basic information on how much they are willing to give you.

Daughter #2 will be different this year than what I have done in the past, she's been awarded a $32,000 scholarship (payable over 4 years) so I have to make sure I add that in there.

I'm waiting until I get the email that my Fed. return was accepted before filing FAFSA. I've already got the girls'. Theirs came almost immediately after I finished submitting it online. I guess it doesn't take to long to check a refund for $8 or $28 compared to one over $1000.

We're paying out of our pocket. It's actually cheaper to send the Progeny to community college than it was to the prep school LOL And, we get to take the tuition OFF both Federal and State. The scholarship didn't harm us, since it was used for books and food.

Daughter #1 got a mix of loans and scholarships/grants, but all that is already in there from last year's paperwork, so for her it shouldn't be to much of anything new being thrown at me.

Having her in school though did make us money with our refund, which is nice. So next year, with two in college that'll help to. Her out-of-pocket cost didn't save us much because she didn't spend enough to deal with itemization. So to get a break, she needs to spend more of what she doesn't have. lol

Since we paid the entire tuition out of pocket, we claimed it. The other expenses - gas, pens, papers, lunches, car insurance, etc - wasn't worth itemizing over.

Had she not switched schools, we'd have had to come up with $3000 or more for this Spring Semester, but switching schools gave her more money and she was able to get everything covered and a refund too, which she's used to buy supplies for her art class. She's brought home so many sculptures and such, she can open her own mini-museum.

They were less than a day away from the city and Samuel had not yet taken Mercy as his. He knew she was whole again. He knew she desired him and he definitely desired her, but he was not sure what needs he could meet for the rare gift he knew that Mercy was. He had spent hours thinking about what Tatewater had shared, as well as what he knew of James Blackwaters' perversion. He was not like either man.

He knew how to handle a whip, flogger, cat o'Nines, a cane and had incorporated knife play into his bedroom, but none of these things did he enjoy – not nearly as much as the men and women he surrounded himself with. Having Mercy in his bed should excite him, not frighten him. He did not want to admit his inability to please her, nor did he want to appear weak in his slave's eyes. It would not take much for another man to swoop in and capture the tantalizing creature's devotion. It had happened before and it would most likely happen again, if he could not tend to all of Mercy.

“Master?”

Samuel looked up and gazed at the woman who had slipped from the carriage bench and now rested on her knees in front of him. His cock jerked forward, stiffening instantly. “Yes?” he said, clearing his throat.

“I wish to ask you a question,” she lowered her gaze, “or two – maybe three.”

He chuckled softly. “You may ask them.”

“Have I displeased you?”

Samuel sighed. “No.”

“Do you find me unappealing?”

This time he answered with a low and throaty chuckle. “No.”

“May I draw your cock into my throat and taste your cum?”

Samuel choked and coughed on the air that had become lodged in his throat. He closed his eyes after seeing and hearing the longing in her eyes and voice. “Yes, my slut. Yes, you may have my cock.” He moved to release the stays of his trousers and stopped when she whispered, “Please Master, let me.”

His hands fell to his side and Mercy smiled warmly. Her fingers worked to free his throbbing member and when it bounced out, her mouth was there to catch it.

Sounds like she's enjoying it, which is great.

*chuckles* Thanks. I like Mercy - a lot. Hopefully the teasers aren't too much of a spoiler.

She is. The only regret is all her classes are two days a week and she spends all day in the city during that time.

She has admitted that by moving back home, she's realized she misses the freedom of not having to go by my rules. lol

Wishing all a good day. See the Valentine's winners are up.

Nice to see you.

Yes, they are and Earth Day is next.

If I vanish suddenly, don't be suprised. My head, neck and shoulder are all starting to ache. Which means Celebrex / Oxy is needed which might mean I'm zonked in about 30.

I like that. Thank-you and Happy Valentine's Day to you as well.

 

[BrettJ]

Thanks RED although it isn't "get better"-able. It is connected to the injury on my shoulder from back in (gasp!) 1998! My neck is so stiff right now it's not fun and it goes to my head and that all came from the shoulder.

Bugger!

Then I do hope the meds work quickly for you.

I'm in the in-between stage right now - pain is lessened (headache mostly gone) but can still concentrate a bit. Just found a story I'd written for work and either I didn't spell check it (rare for me) or I didn't save the changes. I just now re-sent it. Wouldn't have caught it but it's the newest I am submitting to LIT later tonight.

I'm just getting Mercy's chapters done and then I'll gather them up, and edit them, then edit number 4 and submit all to Lit.

LOL when I got out of the Navy and decided to go back to school my dad offered for me to move back in. I reminded him about the clashes before I left to boot and it was very quickly agreed that perhaps me moving back in would have been a very bad idea indeed.

 

[BrettJ]

Good luck with that RED. I just had to submit the newest twice - it wouldn't let me go back and change it and insisted I had submitted it.

~sigh~

Back later
