Five Years Gone...

Can you believe it's been FIVE years since I closed Savannah Scrapbooking???

That's just crazy!

Five years ago I closed up my baby and walked away from the most awesome job in the world. 

I had a super fun five year run with my little biz, and met people from all over the country. 

And through (or despite) the clogged toilets, backordered merchandise, hours and HOURS of inventory, economic woes, and the occasional crabby/crazy/stinky/psycho situations, I got to hang out with the coolest, most creative women a person could ever hope to meet. 

And I'm lucky to still call most of them friends.  So here's to you my beautiful scrappy friends... I still hold memories of you in my heart.

~Amy, Michelle, Sid, Roxie, Autumn, Stacy, Trish, Renee, Pam, Christy, Kristine, Renee, Eunice, April, Maggie, Alisa, Lynn, Sandy, Sherri, Jennifer, Beth, Debbie, Lori, Susan, Amber, Elizabeth, Kim, Melinda, Jennifer, Lisa, Sara, Robyn, Teresa, Cathy, Mandi, Carla, Deiha, Stephanie, Tanya, Tiffany, Jill, Gina, Barb, Rhonda, Natalie, Deborah, Larissa, Nicole, Lauren, Sandi, Cecile, Angie, Rachelle, Tracy, Joy, Jane,  Sheryl, Cheryl, Meghan, Summer, Heather, Gail, Nancy, Bonnie, Jonancy, Shawna, Faye, Becky, Robin, Sharon, Tamara, Betty, Lamuir, Janet, Sue, Toni, Beverly, and Brandi.

So let's raise a glass to the sisterhood... to the sharing of ultrasound, wedding, birthday and graduation photos... to indepth discussions about vaginas, vibrators, marriage and money... to laughing until we cried, peed in our pants, or spewed soda through nostrils... to good-natured gossip, rumors of underpantslessness, and torrid tales of sex after 40.  We welcomed each other into our families' stories, gave advice, and lent comforting ears/shoulders/cocktails. 

You all rock.  I'd do it again in a heartbeat (now that I've had five years to miss it.) 

Anybody got $100,000? I need to win the lottery!  :)
