Taking Care of the Espousa

The Espousa was quite under the weather this morning, so I was the dutiful hubby and remained home to care for her. The care involved letting her sleep while I did the taxes for both of us and the Progeny and e-filing both returns, state and Fed. Also, included was making cups of hot tea and keeping the fireplace stoked with a roaring fire while it went from rain to freezing rain to sleet to now snow.

I was surprised in filing the Progeny's taxes that the State of Wisconsin provided on line tax prep software and e-filing for free for simple returns, which I used for the Progeny. I then thought to look at the IRS site and they have links to free prep and filing software online. Did the Progeny's there too. Sure beats paying $40 bucks or so for Intuit services or shipping the hard copies off to him to sign and mail in for a 100% refund.
