One of my sisters told me that she never writes my address in her book in pen.
She always does it in pencil, because she knows it'll change again soon.

That's exactly what's happening here at Standing By - we just got
settled into our new home, only to move again.

And just like in real life, I'm a little late in spreading the word.

Standing By has moved to the Manhattan Mercury's new interactive site. Click here to be redirected to our new home.

I'd like to thank our regular readers for patiently following us through
the changes, and I'd like to welcome our new readers to join the
conversation.

I appreciate you all.

And remember, you don't have to erase anything - just change your bookmark
so you'll know where we are. You can also set up RSS feeds so you'll
know when new posts are up and ready to read.

Thanks and I'll see you at the new site!

Ok. I don't like the new site. I can't figure out which one is the newest, and I have to surf through other blogs. However, I'm still glad you're around! :-)

Hmmm, I'm not sure I like it either Theresa... I can't find the new stuff from Jan either. Oh well, I'll keep working on figuring it out because I'd be lost without Standing By.

I feel your pain, ladies. It's not really up to me how the site works, but I can tell you that the administrator does read the comments and is working hard to make it more user friendly. He has some good ideas that I think will address some of the problems, but it might take awhile to get it all sorted out. In the meantime, thanks for your support and patience. You guys are awesome! And if you want, you can friend me on facebook and I'll keep you posted on any more changes.

Also ... If you follow this very long link ............ http://affiliate.kickapps.com/service/searchEverything.kickAction?as=47305&mediaType=blog&sortType=recent&includeBlog=on&d-7095067-p=1 ........... it should take you to a page with lists of all the paper's blog posts. The first one you see up there with my picture on it is the latest from Standing By.

OK, i've just gotten an update from the site administrator with a new link that will take you directly to Standing By posts and Standing By posts only. I will update the link in the above post, too. Here it is: http://affiliate.kickapps.com/service/searchEverything.kickAction?keywords=%22standing+by+-+jan+wesner%22&as=47305

I am officially bummed. I read your blog all the time (seldom ever comment) and it is one of my highlights everyday. I get to work in the afternoon and always check your blog. Well, the new blog is blocked on my work computer so I cannot access it. I work at a school so things like facebook and myspace are also blocked. There goes my afternoon excitement! I guess I will have to start checking it from home....... right there w/ my facebook page!

atcmom - sorry for the inconvenience but I hope you'll keep reading! It's odd that the new site would be blocked. I don't know much about tech stuff so can't say why. But we're still working on it and eventually the url might change. Maybe the new one won't be blocked. Thanks again for sticking with us, though!
