A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com )
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to our sponsor, Carrington Carpets. Here we are in the middle
of the Holiday Season and just days away from the New Year and the
millenium. Seems a lot of folks are concerned and are looking at the
New Year as a scary thing. I prefer to look at it as a new beginning!
How lucky I feel to be able to say I am around in the year 2000! I am
sure it will take some getting used to writing the number but how exciting!
Now I am sure there may be some gliches here or there but taken in
stride this can be a be a very exciting time instead of scary. So take
some time to enjoy the Season and don't worry about the Y2K bug. With
some patience and common sense, it will be cured... Enjoy!
Remember if you know of any upcoming events, please email me so I can include them for
FREE.
We publish the 1st & 3rd Monday of each month. Don't forget you can sponsor an issue
too!
Just go to www.lonekeep.com/jscib and click on
sponsor.
Until January 3rd 2000!, peace and enjoy the Season!
