Best of Luck to Shelley on her new journey...

I knew this time would come BUT I didn't want it to...today is NOT Shelley's last day here at Resinall BUT it's "our" last day with just she and I. The new hire will be here tomorrow and then I will be on vacation on Friday of this week and her entire last week which is next week. So I wanted to give her a little going away gift...she's dropped enough hints in the past that she wanted a personalized Tervis Tumbler like mine so that's what I got her. I was going to save it for her birthday in November but since she's leaving I thought that I would go ahead and give it to her. Needless to say she was VERY HAPPY about that:-) She already knows how I feel about her leaving (I explained all that in the going away card that brought tears to my eyes as I wrote it) but I'll say just a bit in this post AGAIN. Shelley and I started the same year here at Resinall in the same department (QC), she came in March of 2008 and I came a few months later in May of 2008. She and I have grown to be close friends over the years, particularly in our last 4 years. It is a friendship that I will cherish forever! I did tell her that she had to promise to email, text, call, and get together often so that our friendship won't drift! Oh...and we have to do SDV's together!!!! Shelley...I know you will read this and I told you that I was holding you to ALL of this! I wish you the best of luck in your future, I am so happey for you...I know you well enough to know that you will accomplish the goals that you have layed out to me! Thanks for everything girlie! I'll miss you bunches (our venting sessions, our lunches (gotta find some new place to go now!), our girl to girl talks and so much more)! It'll take some getting use to NOT seeing you everyday BUT I'll somehow make it thru our emails, phone calls, blog posts, and text messages (and heck...you might even be cleaning my teeth one day...LOL)! I luv ya like a sister girl!
