A Story and an Introduction

by Terri


I have some exciting news to share with you but before I do, I want to tell you a little story. 

I know we have talked many times about how amazing the internet is in bringing people with like interests together.  Over the years, I have become “friends” with so many people who I have met in various classes and groups online.  In fact, this blog was started by women who only knew each other online.  Although I have since had the pleasure of meeting some of my online friends and FOL sisters in person, it all started with “meeting” on the internet.

The person I want to introduce you to is someone I met in a Kim Klassen class.  Once the class was over, several of our classmates continued to meet in a Facebook group called “Groupies of Kim Klassen”. The class itself was very large and it was hard to really get to know anyone but in the smaller Facebook group, we became friends.  I began to read her blog and enjoyed getting to know her.  Then last October we both attended Shutter Sisters Oasis in Palm Springs.  The first night I recognized her from across the room and introduced myself to her.  She was exactly the way I thought she would be, friendly, warm and funny.

So, without further ado, for those of you who haven’t met her yet, I want to introduce Carol Hart, our newest FOL contributor.


We are so pleased to have her join our FOL family. Her first post is tomorrow so I hope you will be able to stop in and get to know her.  Before long, I know you’ll be friends. The internet is great that way.

Having been lucky enough to be at Oasis and meet Carol, I want to second all of Terri's comments. I look forward to getting to know Carol better and I think you'll soon join with me to celebrate what a neat gal she is.
