Yep...that is right! Tax time! We got our taxes done tonight. Thankfully, things went well! :o) I attribute that to the fact that "we got people." He he he! It is funny how many people ask us why we pay someone to do our taxes. Honestly, there are multiple reasons. #1 If something goes wrong, someone else has to deal with it for me
#2 I like not having to buy a program and get updates for it every year to make sure I am not claiming something I should not be
#3 The advice. We have been going to the same tax lady since we got married and she is amazing. She gives us advice on how to get the most out of our money and what we should be doing to save on the taxes, what kind of accounts we can open for Alaina's college, etc. Does a computer program give you that?? ;o) I think I will keep "my people." He he he!
The highlight of the whole thing was all the attention Alaina got. I didn't think the receptionist was ever going to go back to her desk. She sat with us until our tax lady came to get us and I think she would have gladly watched Alaina the whole time had we allowed her to! She said her grandkids lived out of state and she missed them so much. I told her there were a couple grandmothers in Iowa who missed little miss Lainey a lot of the time as well! (Right Grammy NiNi??) Alaina ended up falling asleep near the end after a short spurt of crankiness. Overall she was very good, I have no complaints. Teddy and I picked up Chinese for dinner on the way home and we spent the evening getting the house cleaned up. A man is coming to our house tomorrow night to interview Teddy about one of his friends that is trying to get a job with the government. Apparently they take these things quite seriously?? Ha ha... So anyway...we had to get everything all picked up. Yae...
I guess that is about all for tonight. I hope everyone had a nice start to the work week!
