  1. One of my favorite science fiction trilogies is the Tamir trilogy by Lynn Flewelling. Much to my pleasure, I found that book 2, The Hidden Warrior and book 3 Oracle’s Queen  have been recently Kindleized. Unfortunately, Book 1, The Bone-Doll’s Twin is not.
  2. I started on Season 4 of  "House, MD"  a few days ago and was annoyed to find the last disk badly scratched and skipping. However, Amazon’s customer service is EXCELLENT. I have the set packed up and waiting to be taken to the post office {hopefully on Monday} and another set is already on its way to me. Not only does the Amazon site print out a free shipping label for me, but also a copy of the original paperwork . This was a relief because I tend not to keep that stuff and it has to be put in the box with the DVDs I am returning.
  3. I was booked to have a massage today. Unfortunately, it snowed, a LOT and our landlord has gone skiing. {I am assuming this since he is a skier and he left early.} Anyway, there is no way I would feel comfortable about getting out of the drive with a couple of feet of snow there, and driving to Burlington. So, I called Beth and rescheduled.
  4. If the landlord doesn’t clear away the snow this evening, I have already decided that I will walk to the post office on Monday with the DVDs. I have boots and I have Yak Trax! Going there is all downhill. Which, of course, means coming back isn’t!  Anyway, walking is what is in my mind right now but I reserve the right to change my mind…
  5. Time to get on the treadmill for a bit…

I wish I had kept the receipt for the movie DVD I ordered Joe from Amazon…. because it won’t play! But I did not keep the receipt so I guess it wouldn’t do me much good to ask to return it???? Do you think? I’m going to go out for a walk. I’ve been lazy today, for no good reason at all, since we have no snow! (Well I’ve not been too lazy, but I certainly haven’t stepped out of the house evenonce!) hugs, Weesprite

Can you send some of the snow our way? All we’re getting are these terribly cold temps and rain. I WANT SNOW!!!! LOL Hugs,M

Just curious, does your landlord plow himself? We have a local guy who plows if we’re here or not. He’s pretty good and we pay him in cash 😉

i shoveled today… don’t have to walk on the treadmill! take care,

Snow? What’s snow LOL Seriously it’s been ages since it snowed here in east texas!

The U.S. Postal Service will pick your package up for you, for free. They say you can call to arrange this, I had to return a DVD and since the package was so small I put it in my mailbox. The mail carrier picked it up, no problem.

Yak Trax seem like a great idea, much better than using my golf shoes! Glad things are going well. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could watch DVD’s on Kindle? I am waiting til these technologies merge into a single unit-maybe I can wait. You are a great salesperson for them. You make me drool. hahaha be well and have fun…dan

I think Amazon has probably the best customer service ever! I think that’s why I shop there before practically anywhere else. Stay warm! (((Hugs)))
