Karen’s Opinion

Tomorrow, my son is graduating from college and receiving his masters in communication degree. I can hardly believe how time has flown. 64 days until he gets married and I become a mother in-law. So many great things are on the horizon.

My Son

My son, my son, I divinely love him so
May Your soft summer breazes upon him blow

My son, my son, I divinely love him so
Protect him, Lord, wherever he may go

My son, my son, I divinely love him so
Help him make right decisions to and fro

My son, my son, I divinely love him so
Let him help others wherever he may go

Every Time I See My Pansies

Every time I see my pansies
Vivid in the golden sun,
You are with me in my garden,
And I am once again a child.

Vivid in the golden sun,
Their beauty brings me close to tears,
And I am once again a child
Learning to assume your grace.

Their beauty brings me close to tears
As I join hands with you in love,
Learning to assume your grace,
Dancing to your inner music.

As I join hands with you in love,
You are with me in my garden,
Dancing to your inner music
Every time I see my pansies.

I don’t know what I would do if I did not have blogging friends who are willing to help me with the technical aspects of my websites. I have been helped when learning how to keep an ad on the front page. I didn’t even know that was possible but an advertiser wanted it that way so I had to figure it out. Thank you Val!

I have learned how to make my sidebar line up by using code. It looks so much nicer these days.

When it comes to choosing a webhost, it is anyone’s opinion as to which is best. I read a lot of bad things that people have had to go through with bad hosts and I don’t want to be in that position. First of all, I don’t know anything about the inside workings of a website so if something goes wrong, I am up the creek without a paddle. That is why I use Webhosting Geeks to guide me to the best host. Their website lists the top 10 web hosting providers by specific attributes. I am able to compare prices, qualities and sizes of specific hosting companies. That saves me from having to pick one and find that it didn’t fit my needs. Thank you Webhosting Geeks!

I have also found valuable information at their blog. It is full of information about how to avoid being scammed, how to keep unwanted malicious items to be uploaded to my website and other important items. It has helped me avoid some threats to my website. You should check it out. It could save you a few headaches.

Hurray for Fridays! We are leaving this Friday afternoon for our son’s college graduation on Saturday. He has earned his master’s degree in communications. I have no idea what the weather is supposed to be like on Saturday so I hope I have packed the right clothing. If the weather is nice, the ceremony will be outdoors.

Anyway, back to my favorite thing to do on Friday. Fridays mean it is time for Four Foods on Friday and here are this week’s questions:

#1. blueyes’ question. What’s your favorite seafood recipe?
I don’t really have a recipe but I do love crab. I have no idea how to cook it so when I get a chance to order it at a restaurant I am happy!

#2. Italian Ice. Like it, love it or leave it?
What is Italian Ice?

#3. What’s your favorite crunchy food? (anything – pickles, chips, fruit, etc.)
I love Doritos. If I open the bag, I can eat the whole thing. Yes, I am addicted to Doritos.

#4. Have you ever eaten so much of something that you felt or got sick?
I don’t think I have ever eaten that much of anything. If I have, I don’t remember doing it.

Anyone who knows me knows that I absolutely love shoes. I love to look at them the way guys look over the cars at a car lot. I go down every aisle and become overwhelmed at all the choices.

Lately, I have been drawn to the new gladiator style of shoes. Check out these at AMI Clubwear:

Are they not the most gorgeous shoes you have ever seen? The price is low enough that I can order a pair in each color!

AMI Clubwear makes shopping for shoes and clothes an experience! Because they are online, I can take my time and wander through all the styles before I hit the shopping cart button. I can even check out the shoes the stars are buying. They have them listed in the sidebar so I can see what Kate Hudson likes to wear. I am in love with the cute little pink canvas lace sneakers shown in her category of favorites.

You really ought to check out the shoes and clothes at AMI Clubwear. They offer free shipping on orders over $50.00. With all their cute things, it won’t be hard to reach that limit. AMI Clubwear has found a new fan. ME!
