I did my taxes yesterday and filed them, not without some drama there---however--my printer decided to become posessed and would not do as I commaded----had figure out how to delete the printer job in the que then re-set it, then turn it off and on and then unplug the dang thing to re-set it. When plugged back in--the 2nd time--- it just shot out page after page in huge bold type -of documents from awhile ago---OMG--a printer Linda Blair started. So I am dumping the stupid thing and bought a new one----is coming tomorrow--wow---then my coffee table had a screw loose---I stood it up on its end--is a rectangle shape --took out the screws to rescrew it together and then watched as the whole thing literally fell apart and folded in on itself in front of me!! So am getting another one---and will smudge my place with a sage stick to rid it of evil spirits good thing I am getting a tax refund back--or am I????? that was my Monday!!

My NEW printer must have been made in he{{.    I don't believe "things" have a mind......but THIS ONE DOES (yes, evil.)

@wagirl  I just had to respond to your comment.  I had the same thing happen yesterday.  Got all,y tax documents ready to print to bring to my tax preparer abd all of a sudden my reliable printer decided to jam.   I could not find a paper jam.  Restarted it made sure I cleared the printer utility abd tried again, abd again until I finally gave up.   I had to send me docs to my neighbor to print for me.    I hate having to buy another printer but I guess it's inevitable

Get out the salt and walk around the outside of your house too! You need a protection circle STAT!

It must have been tax day. I also submitted mine on Sunday night.

Not to be mean, but this gave me a little chuckle.  I'm a fan of the show The Office and have been binging on it lately.  Just yesterday, I watched the episode where the cheap foreign made Sabre printers were defective.  

Have a better Tuesday, @wagirl.

I am ready to toss my printer off the deck, @wagirl 🤬

My shoulder is ready to be on loan to you @wagirl ! Years ago I had an issue with my portable printer, it was ongoing and I swear it was possessed. DH came home one night and it was sitting in the bottom of the pool, he came in and said "Let's go to Best Buy."

I use a Samsung tablet for all my online activity.  Have bought both a HP and a Canon printer and can't get either to work.   They pretend like they're printing but there's never a word on the paper.  Something on my tablet is preventing printing and I can't figure out what it is.  I could supply two people with brand new printers.
