Ye gods! I was thinking just a minute go that I had a package from Drugstore.com that hadn’t arrived yet, so I checked UPS and it said it had been delivered about 45 minutes ago. Hmm. So I go look on the carport and there are two boxes, both of which look like they were used for practicing what not to do with packages. :angry: In fact, one had obviously been resealed! Thankfully, nothing was missing from that box. The other box was a replacement box of jewel cases from Staples because I’d had some that arrived broken two weeks ago! Sheesh.

Well, I just opened the box of jewel cases and amazingly none of them seem to be broken! Yay!!!

And other good news, I got my new wireless ergonomic keyboard this morning. Woohoo!!! :jumping: But annoyingly (you knew it wouldn’t be perfect, didn’t you? :lol: ) my laptop only has two USB ports. My Bluetooth adapter is plugged into one. Now the doohickey for the wireless keyboard and mouse (which I have yet to figure out how to put the batteries in :rofl: ) is in the other. The problem, you ask? Now I have to unplug something whenever I want to use the printer. :roll:

I wrote about two pages last night, I think, but I haven’t keyed it in yet since I’ve been trying to get the keyboard working. Ah well, tomorrow’s another day for that. :)

  1. Wow, you got lots of new things, Tori! And I know what you mean about the keyboard USB ports. That’s why I have hub to plug in all my extra techie stuff. :wink:

  4. My mail man throws my Amazon boxes across my porch so he doesn’t have to open my gate. Thank God I don’t order anything from the Franklin Mint :shock:

    Get a little hub like Kelly suggests. I have one that plugs in and has four outlets. Wireless mice & keyboards rock. How did I ever live without them?

  6. Kelly and Rene, I’ve got a hub around here somewhere… :rofl: When I wasn’t using it, I packed it up in a box. Now I just have to remember which box it’s in. Story of my life. :lol:

    Got the keyboard and mouse working. Yay!

  8. I love drugstore.com - it’s such a timesaver!

    Now you’ve reminded me that I was supposed to order a wireless mouse a few weeks ago…:mrgreen:
