About 12 bottles of insulin from my insurance company.  :o  That will keep me supplied...oh...about...3 months or longer.  It was interesting how they sent it. A styrofoam cooler inside a cardboard shipping box.  Inside the cooler was a non-toxic "dry ice" type chiller pack and my 12 boxes of insulin.  It was overnight shipped from Georgia.  I have to find room for it in my fridge.  I'm not entirely sure why they sent me all the bottles at once, but that will work.

It's ok. In fact, I probably would have laughed at it if it wasn't for the fact that it did happen-and too close to home, too. The town was being invaded with news channels-and they even did a story about on Cold Case Files. Not really a thing that the town wanted to be known for. But the guy who sent the bomb was from out-of-state and they got him the next day.

I got a couple of coupons from Duraflame good for 2 cases of logs, 6 per case. I sent them an email to tell them we had some serious problems with the last logs we bought. Every time I lit one in the fireplace it would drip wax and became very unsafe as the fire got too hot. so they offered me restitution which was the right thing to do, and they offered me a fre fireplace grate and asked that I ship the bad logs back so they can inspect them, at no cost to me. that's good service. :)

I got a bill this morning.  >:(  I thought another day without any of my packages. And then the letter carrier came by with 5 of the 6 packages-including an autographed book from our very own Chucky.  ;D  I'm sure she hates me making her carry all those packages-and most of it were books.

A cheque and a postcard from the carphone warehouse telling me I have a free laptop waiting for me if I would only sign up to
one of their 'mega' deals.  ::)

I got the dreaded blue envelope from our national Tax Department.

Yes...it's time to fill in some forms again. Not a big deal, really...have to be done by April 1.
I don't mind doing this, since I always get a refund. :)

You mean: any day but April 1st?

I don't think this has ever lead to any misunderstandings - and anyway, the forms have to be in by March 31 (latest), not April 1. It is possible to ask for a delay, though (usually granted).

On Saturday, there was a magazine in our mailbox, but it was addressed to our next-door neighbors. I hate it when mail gets delivered to the wrong mailbox!

So we delivered it to our neighbors when they were home yesterday.
