I feel like I've lost a best friend...

I just got news this morning that my favorite kit club is shutting its doors after 3 years. It's the only sub I've had for the last 1.5 years since I joined. Shari, the owner is such an incredible, successful woman. Her business is booming, and yet she is closing her club. I am so sad... I really do feel like I've lost something special. I understand she needs to be there for her family, but can't help feeling bittersweet.
She created a goodbye for her club members, it touched me and here I am, tears streaming down my face. I haven't been very active there the last 3 months. One of the main reasons is being too dang busy, which is why I understand her (Shari's) need to say goodbye. *sniffle* She's leaving the message board up another two or three months. I've "met" a ton of great women there, and will miss chatting with them and sharing our camaraderie there. Hope I can shake the sadness soon.
My last kit from them MFM should be arriving today or tomorrow. *sniff* I seriously believe I learned how to scrap from the ladies on that board.. through that club, through the products and friendship there. I wish you all the best Shari!

  4. Boy do I agree with everything you said - I'm going to cry again. I have learned so much from the MFM scrappers and love receiving the monthly kit. I was looking for a new group and found Talley Scrappers yesterday!
