Ahhhh............you're all so sweet! And even tho I feel the call to move on........hopefully it will not be for forever.
Now....let's see....what can I bring to the party? Um.....how about a life-size stand up cardboard Nic so everyone can say they danced the night away with him?
CLINK!

Just couldn´t possibly wait to next weekend to reply to this, Bonnie.
This is a sad day for CF, since you´re a legend on Nic sites... you´ve been there for Nic like from forever. But on the other hand, I´m so happy for you! Change is good, and life is about constantly evolving, so good for you! I wish you accomplish your goals, no,let me rephrase: I wish you enjoy the process, irrespective of the results. You deserve the very best in life, my dear friend.
Anway I hope to see you around this neck of the cyberwoods now and then... for the ocassional Nicfix but most importantly to keep in touch with the Nicsters!
And... the Bon Voyage party sounds great, I´m in! I´m blowing up the balloons already... I bet Randy is baking the cake... and the rest of Nicsters fixing the drinks! Margaritas, mojitos, daikiris, anyone?? Let´s wish our Bonnie best of luck! To life! CLINK!!

Hugs to all my dear friends!

LOSERS always whine about their best. Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
I have missed both of you ladies bigtime.... Randy & Mara..... and your great posts too. Both of you keep this place jumping, that is for sure! But.....I know how it goes in life and I fully understand both of your reasons and needs to be less active on the site.
In fact....Just like the two of you have had to take a step back from this place, I too will soon be on my way.
You see.......True confession time..............it's been about 10 years since I've become a cheerleader for Nic. God! I can't believe it myself! 10 YEARS! Holy Moly!!! Being that I was never ever even the teeny bopper groupie type....this blows my mind.....
And.....well......the thing is.......I have made a pact with myself. A very big bday is on its way to me in just a matter of a few weeks and well.......the approach of it has had me doing some very deep soul searching and what I have decided is that I need change in my life. I need to rattle it up! LOL!
Change of everything is needed really............and sadly I have concluded that this has to include my much loved Nic hobby. As everyone knows.....it's hard, very hard to let go of something that you've 'loved' for a long time and it won't be easy for me to make myself grow more and more distant from this place.
But I have decided that since I am getting older by the minute I shouldn't waste any more time changing my life. If I'm gonna do other things that I've always put off doing...then I'd better get a move on, right?
Time is of the essence and well........change is good and often necessary!
Anyhoo....so this is my formal declaration of intent to retire from my Nic duties as moderator come the day of my bday. I will probably be like both Mara and Randy.....an occassional visitor to the Cagefactor forum who will always keep my dear friends and comrades in my heart and thoughts as I move along in life.
Oh....and um.......if you check my profile you can jot down my email addy so if anybody needs me they can give me a yell.
I love ya guys and I love Nic. I will miss my daily fix of both!
Now......anybody want to come to a Bon Voyage party?
Hugz to all....B
