Oh, yeah, the state takes a couple of bucks each time. XW and I would be perfectly content if I paid directly to her. But I can't risk that. In the state's eyes, anything that doesn't go through them might not count if there was ever an issue. If she got mad, or if for some reason someone else was in charge of my stuff for a while, they could say that I owed it all! So, I will do it their way!
