Aint nothin' easy

 


Carol is working on getting our absentee ballots so we can vote. I accompanied her for part where we got the forms and shipping labels printed. The instructions said to use 8.5 X 11 inch paper for the forms. Funny thing, haha, 8.5 X 11 inch paper doesn't exist here. In fact, inches don't exist here. But we want our votes to count so we pulled out the phone and got to work on the math. We estimated that 21.6 by 27.9 centimeter paper would do the trick. This, of course, they did not have. It's going to work out. The patient young man reduced the print job to 96% and used a box cutter to make things fit. Carol and I will do a little more cutting and pasting after we get envelops. I asked Carol how we will ship the envelopes once we get them ready and what that will cost. She reminded me, dryly, that this is an on-going saga. Stay tuned...
