Bundling! And I Lost My Mouse!!!

Okay, first, after being interrupted several times during my lunch break yesterday at work, I ended up going back to work without putting my laptop away, and when I finally had a moment to do so, I forgot my mouse! So I'm home without a mouse and I HATE trying to write or do anything without it. How do you copy and paste something on a laptop?

I haven't a clue.

So despite being off from work today and NO WAY do I want to drive into work, I've got to. I can't be mouseless all weekend.

Onward and upward! Have you ever heard of bundling? I wrote about this in A Ghost of a Chance at Love. In the good old days, men and women were not supposed to get too frisky before they were married. But hormones being what they are, couples will find a way. Although, sometimes parental consent was given to allow a man and woman to see if they were even sexually compatible as long as the sexual acts excluded penetrative sex. Since divorce was just not done, it was a way to see if the couple could find intimacy with one another before marriage.

Let's take another instance--often there were not enough guestrooms in a house for everyone so when a gentleman who was betrothed to a lady stayed with her family, they might share the same bed--to keep the chill out. They would be clothed in myriads of clothing to keep them from going too far.

Now, if the two couldn't resist temptation and they went too far and she got pregnant, the wedding date was moved up. :)

Isn't that fascinating? Who would have ever have thought!

But bundling can mean something else today. Bundling up in warm clothes for the weather. Sure.

But something even newer! Ebooks bundled together at one price! And some of MY wolf books are going to be bundled in a special deal!! Always something new and exciting going on in the publishing world!

Since I'm mouseless and feel totally handicapped, I'm going to say--have a terrific Saturday!!! I'm having my Thanksgiving feast with my daughter and her boyfriend today, and will be bringing the German chocolate cake. Yumm!!!

Oh, and what do you think of bundling?? Sound like fun to you?
