Ah yes. As always, where to start? So many things to say, so hard to get them all said.
I suppose I can start with THANK YOU, everyone, for giving me these wonderful years together with you all. It's almost impossible to explain how much I've learned, how many wonderful people I've met, and the both fun and not-so-fun things I've experienced.
But all in all it's been a great, and interesting journey! And I'm really, truly grateful.
The last two years have been my "bad-luck" years - I was seriously injured, at work in 2015, and then when I got better, physically, my dad was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer 2016. It's why I was away for so long without any word, I spent most time by his side when he was in the hospital.
He's lucky to still be alive, fighting this, but it's still hard to say how it'll go. But, as a nurse, I know that as long as there's life there's hope, and my dad has always been a fighter.
Anyway, everything in these two years has made it hard for me to be 100% involved in the FH community. It feels like I've been away more then not, and it doesn't really feel fully fair to my fellow staff members, nor the community, to stay in the staff position.
Because, even though there is many discussions about this, the staff is always at hard work - there's things to do almost everyday! I've always loved this, but now when I can't really keep up, it turns into stress for me. Please do not stare yourselves blind on the number of current staff members - these guys are amazing, hardworking people, and I really enjoyed working with them all.
I've been a staff member since 2013, and I've loved it, and it's always hard to leave after so many years. But, I know there are alot of potential staff members out there, who will take over after me, and other retired staff! <3
Thank you to my fellow staff members - some I've worked with from the start, some a shorter time, but you're all hardworking, kind, good and genuine persons. It's truly been a honor, and I know you'll continue to take care of this community as you always have.
I'll most likely come visit now and then, and I'll still be running the Feral-Heart DeviantArt Group! c:
I'm not sure if I can say thank you too many times, but...THANK YOU. Each and everyone of you, new and old members of this community.
Shally out! <3
