OK, what are your last-minute Christmas gift ideas for your spouse “from” the kids? Mine are big enough to have their own ideas but also swamped with school work before the break and haven’t generated ideas or done anything, so I need to project manage the crap out of this last week.

I was looking at jewelry as your post pushed through to my phone. Just something small in the 150 range and will bring the kids in to make the final purchase decision.

Lool what’s the budget? I’ve always liked experiences - like Broadway, Sports, Mani- Pedi with kids, date night from the kids ha etc.

Coupons of good behaviour - sounds like they are in teenage so might actually be valued

Send the two of you on date/ staycation/holiday (budget dependent)

Beer/wine/gin/baking club of the month membership or subscription

Photo album and other such always delayed projects

Yep, just ordered one and if we like it, grandma’s birthday is in Feb so will be easy as pie. I figure we’ll create the albums in iCloud and then just port them over through the frame’s app.

I briefly considered just getting an iPad to save a couple steps but that seems silly to pay double for a device that can do a lot more, and just leave it permanently on a shelf.

Heartfelt card

My kids always get my wife skin care related stuff: eye masks, face masks, serums, etc.

She travels for work and loves to have the sheet masks and eye masks in her travel kit for the end of the day unwind in the hotel room.

When the IRS (e.g., a RO/AO/Examiner) calls or writes a letter… How do you verify that it’s really the IRS and not a scam?

I don’t think my worry is unfounded due to the tremendous amount of tax/IRS scam out there but it would be nice to hear from some of y’all so that I’m not so worried about it…
