Turning out the lite...

I wasn't really planning on posting this just yet, but I'm not sure when I would have another chance, so here it is.


Its been a great run gang. I have really enjoyed my last year and some months as one of your fearless CL's, but it is time to say goodbye (or adios if I felt like dragging my little bit of Spanish out of the closet). I will still be around some, just not as a CL, and not as often as I used to be.


Now that I am working a *real* job, I don't have a chance to get online during the day anymore. My nights and weekends are spent with Kim and Amanda, and I wouldn't have it any other way.


I love this board and the people on it. This place will always have a special place in my heart. But my life now is so happily full, that I just don't have enough hours in the day for everything anymore, and unfortunately it is the board that is getting the short end of the stick. This board, and all of you, deserve more than I can give, so it is time for me to step aside and let someone with enough time, energy and enthusiasm to devote to the board to step up and take a turn.


I'm keeping my CL hat until Wednesday, to give Caly time to get home and recover from her travels, and after that, I will be around still, just in a bit of a quieter capacity.


Big hugs!

Courtney,


I completely understand why you are making this decision. I am happy that your life is full and happy. I am glad you aren't leaving completely, your posts are always so upbeat and cheerful.


Make sure you check in so we know how you and Kim and Amanda and snickers and boo are.....


(hope I remembered the hamster's name right..and the cat's now that I am second guessing myself...

Wow!.. Okay.....Change is coming again.. Change is something that life is about..
You either fall and stop(letting it keep you down)...... Or roll with it (not liking it always but accepting it)..
Okay Hon, I can understand all you posted....I am glad we had you as long as we did.. You know what is best for you..What feels right..
I do hope you'll pop in often as we would miss you as we have missed Pam..
Wishing you the best ..

Courtney,
I understand how you must be feeling. You have been so busy for so long. You need time with your new family. Please don't be a stranger. It looks like a complete turnover for the board, but I am sure it will stay strong!
Enjoy family life. And I hope we see you around here or you will be sadly missed.
Take care,
Hugs,
Laurie

It sounds like your plate is really full right now. I'm sure you'll visit LL when you can.

I understand about having a full life. you have been a great CL! I am glad I got here when you and Pam were here. yall both gave really good advice and made something for me to look forward to each day (besides the obvious). I am glad you will still be around. MandiJewell

Alright, who gave out the Get Out of Jail Free cards so freely recently???? *Grin*

Thanks for being our CL. It's understandable to want to spend time with Kimmie. That cozy home, with the light dimmed all the time (watch out for the ottoman), Amanda at grandma's every weekends, the cold wind blowing outside and the comfy of the nice sofa. Who would want to miss out on an opportunity to play Tinga with that kind of atmosphire!

Don't be a stranger. You and Kim check in every week if you can't make it everyday. We have to make sure your blood pressure is normal every now an than.*SMILE*

Hi Sandra! Guess what? You were right on the names, both of them! I am impressed :)


I will still be posting, as often as I can, but I just need to clear a bit of the busyness out of my day.


Thanks so much!


Hugs!
