Lina | 5563 comments So, this isn't goodbye, really.

It's me letting you know that I'll be stepping down as moderator after the 1,000 Members in 10 Days celebrations, in the middle of April.

As I'm sure a lot of you know, I started a full time job in late January, which was supposed to go to part-time in March. That hasn't happened, it's stayed as a full-time role, luckily I love what I'm doing. This is my first full-time role since the birth of my daughter 9 years ago, so it's been a bit of a shock to the system for my family. Add to that the fact that I'm still on the P&F committee at the kids' school, I play netball one night a week, take the kids to their extra-curricular activities and I'm part of a real-life book club, and I'm spreading myself thinner than my family deserves.

Gisela, Lisa Kay and Susan have stepped in stupendously and haven't once made me feel bad when I've dropped the ball on my mod duties and for that they have my everlasting gratitude. It has been such a blast being a moderator for this amazing group. You ladies are the most supportive, cheeky and enabling group of people I've found on the Internet, and I'm glad I'll still be around as much as I can, to join in the fun. My hope is that stepping down might even give me a bit more reading time!

So, consider this my two week's notice, lol, and in the meantime I'll be involved in the group celebrations happening over the next few days.

In a while, crocodiles!! :-)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Aw, CaroB! You are breaking my heart, you know. However, I completely understand. You have been the best co-mod and I will miss my Virgo sister in crime. I'm already...
