Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm glad they admitted your MiL, Burrell. Better there where they can keep an eye on her, for sure. I hope she starts feeling better soon. Pneumonia is no fun.

All of that. And happy anniversary, Amy!

very cute watching the two of them play the wii together.

Sweet!

I think I am going to have to gut it out here until 5. I'm afraid I've already read the whole internet!

Okay, this is bizarre. We got a gift from co-workers of Bob's. Totally unexpected. He is now having taxes on the value of the gift taken out of his payroll. Does that make any sense??

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Who is "he"? Bob or the giver. Is it a legal thing maybe?

Was it actually a gift from the company? If so that's not surprising. But if coworkers ponied up cash that's a little strange.

Sorry, "he" is Bob. The gift tag was signed by two co-workers not from his company name. But even if it was from the company why would we be taxed for it? That makes no sense. It wasn't something we asked for and had nothing to do with his work there. It seems super crazy to me.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Anniversary, Amy and S!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

If a company pays for a gift (or flowers) you are actually "supposed" to be taxed on it-- at least at my university. We actually had to stop giving things because we found this out after we sent a flower arrangement for a family member's funeral! At least here, we don't have to report it unless it is over $20.00.

But wouldn't the company be taxed on it, not the person to whom the gift is given? That doesn't make it much of a gift!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

was signed by two co-workers not from his company name. But even if it was from the company why would we be taxed for it? That makes no sense.

I don't specifically know, but it would prevent companies from giving nontaxed benefits/income by just classifying it as a gift.
