Hard to believe but it is snowing! I've noticed that we have developed a new phobia and it is very evident whenever our electricity blinks and we lose power for a few moments as we did last night. When it happens we immediately think "it is happening again and how long will we be without power this time?" as we feel around in the dark for our flashlights and candles. Let's see what could we name this most recently indentified phobia? Powerlossaphobia, or candlelightersphobia, or batterylifephobia, or generatorenvyphobia, or....

We had another building committee meeting last night and accomplished quite a bit and will meet again Wednesday prior to the service then. Nick and I went to Elk City yesterday and took care of several errands that needed doing. I actually found the connections that I need for the new faucet. I just need to put it all together now but it does look like it will not be easy. Visited Charles Fourier at the hospital who last Wednesday fell up at the store on the ice and broke his hip. He will not be able to put any weight on his legs for four weeks. Charles has been through a lot healthwise over the last several years.

Today the devotional has been written and is almost ready to be sent. Jeanie is working at Sayre today and may come home early if the snow continues. I may spend some time trying to learn how to use the Microsoft FrontPage demo that I received yesterday. Need to be able to improve the webpage but will have to invest the time to learn new skills. I've been having a problem with yahoo for some time trying to change my website from the old geoplus to the new webmaster program but for several months have been at an impasse. So yesterday I think I may have made a break through by contacting some of the executives at yahoo. For website owners one of the most frustrating things is that we have little way of communicating immediately with these people and we seem to be at their mercy as to when they get around to responding to us. However, after a little thought I was able to identify the email addresses of several yahoo executives based on their domain name of yahoo-inc.com. So here they are for all of you who have been having the same kind of problems I have been having:

Jerry Yang - Yang@yahoo-inc.com
He is the co-founder and chief yahoo and director.

David Filo - Filo@yahoo-inc.com
He is a co-found and chief Yahoo too.

Terry Semel - Semel@yahoo-inc.com
Chairman and chief executive officer and director

Jeff Mallett - Mallett@yahoo-inc.com
President and chief operating officer and director

Gregory Coleman - GColeman@yahoo-inc.com
Executive vice president, North American operation

Farzad Nazem - FNazem@yahoo-inc.com
Chief technical officer and senior vice president of communication services.

Susan Decker - SDecker@yahoo-inc.com
Chief financial officer and senior vice President of Finance and Administration

Susan Decker is the only one that actually responded. She kindly forwarded my email to Carolyn Patterson whom Sue says runs customer services and Sue apologized for the problems I had been having. It was a little thing but it did make me feel better. Last night I actually received a response from customer service (of course there was no human name listed in the email) but it was the first response I had received in over a month. Hopefully they will now take action to correct the problem I have been having of transferring from Geoplus to webmaster and I can be rid of the irritating ads on my website once again.

May you be blessed Sue Decker!!!!
