I have just heard from my friend that she will bring me to Flint on
Saturday. I had thought I wouldn't get to go, but am so glad I can now.
Can't wait to see all of you!
I hope Janice and Shirley will be there.
I do business size checks in my HP printer in the normal tray. Granted it isn't easy to get it all the way in there but it can be done.

Andy, Instead of Quicken-type checks which are pricy, there are two alternatives, one costing very little more than wallet checks. 1. Most banks sell a business-sized check in a check-book. This check is almost as big as a business envelope. It usually does not have a stub to tear off. Its fields are just farther apart. This check option allows you to keep track of check number yourself because remaining checks stay in the book.
2. A more costly, but neat, option is the large print, raised-line check. This is the same size as the business check above, but has raised lines and raised print. Money Talks supports this as well. These checks are in a book. Most banks have them, but they don't know it until you go through the bank's big book of check types and styles with them ? and then they are amazed to find it there. It is a more expensive option, though.
Personally, I don't like the 3-to-a-page checks because I have to keep track of partial pages of checks when I write only one. However, a number of people, some on this list, find such checks to work well.
