Perfect Printer

In our house we have a couple printers. We have one printer that is on our living room and that is a type of laser printers. We use this for everyday printing because it is just a black and white printer and we never have to replace the ink. As a matter of fact we have had the printer for two years now and have never replaced the ink at all. You can tell that we really do not print that often. The laser printer uses a toner and does not use very much at a time plus it is really fast at printing multiple pages. The toner does cost a lot to replace but since we do not do it often it really pays to have one. The other printer we have is an all in one. We have that one in the kids room on their computer. It is color they like it when they print out their pages. I like the laser printer and when you buy your toner online you can save as well.

Always wrong

I have to say I am not sure what is wrong with the delivery men in our area, but for some strange reason I get something delivered to me once a week that is not mine. They always use the same line when I am chasing them down the street. They tell me that they looked at the street and it was the same as mine. I have the same house number as the street I live on. It seems like they do not really pay attention. If I was not an honest person they would be loosing a lot of packages because they are giving them to the wrong house. I was thinking about getting a home address signs that spell the street name rather than have the number. I wonder if that would have an impact on them reading the numbers right. It sure would be nice to get my packages once in a while.

Teachers Birthday

Last week was one of the teachers birthdays at Maddie's school. It happened to be her teacher. The kids were very excited because they all really love their teacher. They had a small birthday party for her in the classroom on her special day. The kids were all given small little goodie bags and we all chipped in to get the teacher a small gift as well as a floral arrangement in honor of her special day. I have to admit that I am always getting flowers. I do not need really expensive ones but Ken always sends them to me as a surprise. I have never had flowers that were so fresh before I had flowers from online. I would not think they would be as pretty but they are much better than the average florist. I was for sure impressed. As far as the teacher bouquet it was beautiful just as I suspected. She loved them very much and the kids were very excited to give them to her.

New Table

I remember when Ken and I used to have a table in the living room. It was a glass table and when the kids were learning to walk I was always afraid that they would bump their heads. I asked Ken to put it away when they were learning. To be honest it has been done ever since. We just kept having more kids and then they would also learn to walk and I was worried for them as well. No I would say I am ready for a new table. I would really like a rustic dining table to go with our new furniture. I would prefer it to be brown just like our furniture. I think it would make the living room look furnished. Maybe I will look around online to see if I see one that would fit our room.
