Time to say good bye.

I've thought about engaging in a new and different volunteer opportunity for some time now.  It's finally progressed from mere contemplation to reality. My new volunteer gig is with a wildlife rehab facility, within a wetlands facility by the beach. 

I will be working with furry critters, as well as 2-legged ones with feathers and some 2-legged humans without feathers, .  I made a goal this year to spend less time online. Up until now, that goal was a failure.   This change will lead to new and exciting opportunities and adventure.

Best wishes to one and all!     I'm going to take a break from posting, but I'll likely stop back by at some point in the future and do a little posting.

Bye for now

Goodbye for now,  NN. You did a great thing reaching out to others on the C&H board (and popping around the others as well).

Animals by the beach,  no less,  sounds cool.

NN, your new opportunity sounds wonderful ! Thank you so much for all you have contributed here. I hope you'll come back when you can. I totally understand the desire to spend more time off line, and I feel that connecting with animals brings such great rewards. Very exciting!

I hope you'll soon come back and share your adventures

Your new adventure sounds blissful! I wish you all the best with it.

I can totally relate to the idea of wanting to step away from the all of the electrons that we forcefully inconvenience to do our bidding and carry our messages through cyberspace in favor of spending time with flesh and blood creatures in the real world. 

As the others have said, thank you so much for all of the time and energy that you have put in around here. Your departure will surely create a void and your absence will be noticeable.

When your out there, remember that frogs are people too!

Hey NN!

I'll miss you on C&H but know you'll be experiencing C&H there at your new opportunity too!

Blessings and pop back in when you can. You've done an amazing job!

Did you take your jar of jam with you? We may need some for the parrot still. He has that sweet tooth you know. Smiling (click to insert in post)

Bye Bye NN, this move sounds a wonderful opportunity.  Wetlands are much deprived across the world and you're doing your bit!  I'm envious and wish you all the best in this new venture.

Hugs and smiles to you

Hi NN.  It is good to see you moving on to reach your goal of less online time and to still volunteer your time and yourself ... .I'll still miss seeing you though.  Based of what I have seen and experienced of your work here, those wetland critters will be in very good and caring hands.

Be well!

Dear Naughty Nibbler,


I am so happy for you that you are moving on towards a new stage of your life. This sounds like a very healthy step you are taking. I so much understand it (remember when I told you something similar).

It's with tears in my eyes that I wanted to tell you that you have been a true inspiration for me here. THANK you so much for all of the wise advise. I will never forget that. You have been a comfort and an example to me.


If you want, pop by sometime to tell us how you are.
