[Nfbf-l] question about I.D. Mate

[Patricia A. Lipovsky]

Sheryl,

I have the older version of the ID mate, and have been using it for about 
three years now.  .  I have found that most directions are not accessible 
through the gar code.  Some are, but most are not.  I think it depends on 
the company brand, and how information is printed on the label of the 
product.

I would also like to wish all the moms out here a Happy Mothers' Day.  I 
hope you all had a great day.  My kids came for a visit, and my son sprayed 
my yard and put a picnic bench together for me.  Then we went out to eat. 
It was a very nice day, and I got some things done around the house that 
needed to be done.
