Today is Friday, October 22nd, 2004; Karen's Korner #400

Today is a day I have been looking forward to. It is Karen's Korner issue #400!  Thanks for sticking with me!!

And I have some good news I want to share. Remember awhile back when I said that I had asked our two computer son-in-laws about building me a web site for my Karen's Korners? Well, today I am giving all of you my new address for it:  www.karens-korner.com  Remember karens (no apostrophe), dash, and korner with a 'k'.

The thought for a web site was theirs, not mine. They have talked about it since last Christmas, and then I started to get interested in the possibility. Jamie's husband, Tim Champion, stepped up to the plate and started playing with it. Since I am no computer guru, I had no idea how many hours it would take.....and it has taken lots of hours! Thanks, Tim!! 

While we was working on it, I had problems with two modems.......and we had a couple of glitches. (Who can forget the 107 Karen's Korner emails in one day!). Now I sending my daily thoughts through my web site; all my addresses are there.

When you go to the site you will find:  the most current copy at the top of the page; every other copy I have ever written (some of the most recent ones list below it; all the others are archived); you will be able to look back at past copies by dates if you remember, or by topic if you want to 'search' (i.e. our dog, Lady; grandson, Luke); people can subscribe or unsubscribe from the site; you have the ability to email me from the web site, and Tim has two links to other web sites.....Google and Luke's (remember that is a 'dad' thing and not a 'grandma' thing).

It isn't done yet either. Some things Tim would like to see on the page:  a photo page where people can get to know the Weld family better........me, Jim, our farm, our dog, other family members; additional links which people might enjoy taking advantage of, and a place where people can become aware of the devotional booklets I have written and how they can get copies. Yesterday Tim wrote me a note saying, "If you have readers who might have their owm web pages and it would be compatible to have your web page linked to theirs, have them let you know. That is how it 'gets out there' and it is picked up by search engines like Google". So if that triggers anyone's thinking, let me know.

Anyway, enjoy!

Dear Father in Heaven,  Thank you for this new opportunity that Tim has given me to share with even more people. You are so wonderful and fun and funny, as you use people like me and like Tim to do Your work. I can't begin to comprehend how you use 'normal' people like us to carry out your plans! Bless everyone who reads these messages and for those who have shared either their original writings or  their favorite pass-alongs since this adventure began. Take good care of each of us over the weekend and bring us safely back together on Monday! In Jesus' name. Amen
