Tiff

As people will have read in the post below and possibly on Tiff's blog we are sadly farewelling her from this blog as co-author.

Earlier this year she decided that she no longer wanted to be a part of the E2C committee and that this would come into effect after our retreat in March. This took us all by surprise and we were quite shell shocked for some time wondering how we could carry on without her.

After we realized that possibly the E2C retreats could continue we had more descisions to make.

The rest of us debated long and hard regarding this blog, knowing her passion is a driving force behind the blog's success. After much, much thought we all decided that the blog and the retreat were one, that they go hand in hand and to be involved in one side of things and not the other wouldn't make sense.

And so we have reached this point where we say goodbye..........as Tiff as an author BUT not hopefully as a contributor. We certainly hope she is our number one fan on here......and continues to encourage and inspire. There is also the hope that there will be a set challenge from her very regularly so she is definately NOT dropping of the E2C planet!

As a team we all appreciate the enormous amount of work that Tiff has done both towards the past retreats and this blog. Her passion and drive is amazing, and she is definately someone you want to have on a committee. I know without a doubt that without her the dream of having a retreat would never have gotten off the ground. I also know that she took on much of the workload organizing the retreat - one of the reasons we were doubtful we could continue without her. As a friend she has been there during good times and bad. She has been a shoulder to cry on, someone to have a wine with and we have shared many laughs. Tiff you will certainly be missed both on the committee and on here.

Thank you so much Tiff. Things certainly will be different without you being directly involved but i still hope you can be around on the blog and be elbowing in for first position on E2C 2010.

What a lovely tribute to a very special and enthusiastic scrapper. We know you won't be far away Tiff and I reckon Sandra could use some company in her tragics' club!! I really appreciate all the effort that you along with the other girls put into making the dream of our very own local scrapping retreat into a reality. It's a sanity saver for a lot of us, so thanks for your part in it all. Good luck to you remaining members of the committee - you are all amazing and no doubt you'll go forth and conquer as you have done up to now. Keep on keeping on!
