Hey, everybody........

[CaliforniaPeggy]

I know it's weird having me be a mod.........

It's all very new and strange for me too....

Please cut me some slack, will you?

There's a lot to learn, being a mod, and I'm feeling just a tiny bit stressed.......

I know I'll catch on, and all of us will relax.......

Remember, I love you all........and I won't always be a mod, either...

I am very busy right now, so I won't be able to respond the way I normally do.......

Perhaps I will, later..........

1. Sure, but that's kinda the point, having fun while you're otherwise

occupied! :) You'll do great.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. Thanks!

:hug:

[Haole Girl]

2. You know the old expression...it's so true...

we tease the ones we love!

We all love you Peggy!! :loveya: :hug: :grouphug: :hug:

:patriot: :yourock: :loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. My dear KC2!

Thanks, sweetie...you know I love you too!

:loveya: :hug:

[huskerlaw]

3. I think we're all

hazing you a little. ;)

Don't worry though, we still love you!

We're just trying to get used to your new role.

But I for one am proud of you and glad that you got it.

I just hope you keep posting like you always have!

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

23. My dear huskerlaw!

Yeah, a little hazing!

I think you're right....it is something new to get used to, all right!

I appreciate your remarks!

I most likely will not be able to post as much as before....but I'll still post!

:hug:

[Kutjara]

4. You're doing a great job, Peggy!

Don't let the boisterous antics of the playgroup here get you down. Once the kids have had their grapejuice and cookies, it will be their naptime and you can get a much-needed breather.

Just think of it like being a preschool teacher. Or a cat-herder. :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

7. And by that you mean my sake and sushi.

Followed by wine & brownie.

[Kutjara]

8. Indeed.

I must say, you attend a very civilized playschool. All I got was Welch's and stale Mrs. Fields'.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

13. Yes, it's the best.

I must admit the toro was exceptionally fresh tonight.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. My dear Kutjara!

Thanks for the very kind words!

I do think it will get easier.....at least, I hope it will!

:hug: :hug:

[bigwillq]

5. You'll do fine Peggy!

Congrats on being named a MOD.

It's a tough job I would imagine esp. since you are very close with a lot of Lizards.

Don't know if I could do or even want that responsibility. :hi: hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. My dear bigwillq!

Thanks!

It is tougher than I expected...........though, to tell you the truth, I didn't know what to expect!

:hug:

[Deja Q]

6. No problem.

But we do love you, ya know! :hug:

:yourock:


(but Matcom doesn't. :P :rofl: Just kidding, he loves you too.)

[matcom]

9. don't get me in TROUBLE!!!!!11

:hide:

[Deja Q]

14. Just ribbin' ya...

(well, not in the naughty way... I'm a good boy. :D )

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. My dear Hypno!

I'm glad you love me!

All will be well, eventually.......:hug:

[greatauntoftriplets]

10. Awwwww...Peggy. Congratulations on being a moderator.

We were all waiting with baited breath to see your first lock. You did good.

:hi:

[qnr]

11. self-delete n/t

[Sugar Smack]

12. *References to Chicken will NOT be Tolerated*

If you have any questions on this matter, please notify the Mods.

Respectfully submitted,
Sugar Smack

[qnr]

15. Why do you think I deleted it so fast?

:scared:

[Deja Q]

16. How about chicken soup?

:loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. My dear greatauntoftriplets!

Thanks!

Locking by itself isn't difficult....it's all the steps leading up to that lock that make the job challenging......

But I'm learning!

Glad you approved of that first lock!

:hug:

[MissB]

17. Cut YOU slack?

Aren't we supposed to be, er, begging you for some?

Thanks for volunteering. :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. My dear missb!

All I mean is to not go out of your way to tease or taunt me......

That's all...........

Of course I am supposed to cut you some! Believe me, there is much discussion in the Moderator's Forum about this!

:hi:

[mad-mommy]

18. CP is a mod...cool n/t

[CaliforniaPeggy]

30. That I am, my dear mad-mommy!

:hi:

[mvd]

19. Hi, Peggy!

Congrats, and I bet you'll get the hang of things soon. I'm glad you are a mod. :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. My dear mvd..........

Thanks for your support!

How's it look, being on the other side of the fence?

Thank you for your service to us!

It is getting easier, every time I lock......

:hi:

[mvd]

36. It takes getting used to from this side, also

Retired mods feel weird seeing all the mod functions and the mod forum gone. Maybe we will mod together sometime! That would be great.

Modding takes time and effort, but I think you'll find it fun like I did. :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. I would love to mod with you sometime!

I'm sure the effort will decrease as I figure things out!

Everyone in the Mod forum has been extraordinarily kind and helpful!

:hug:

[redwitch]

20. You're a better man than I, Gunga Din

:P:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. My dear redwitch!

I'm not so sure about that, sweetie!

Time will tell, though! :hug:

[Whoa_Nelly]

25. Dear Peggy!

Am 100% behind you no matter what!

You are a good friend and a wonderful person. :hug:

Am sure you will do well as Mod. You always give your best.

:loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

35. My dear Whoa_Nelly!

Awww.....thank you, sweetie!

I'm working on being the best Mod I know how to be.......

I appreciate your very kind remarks!

:loveya: :hug:

[Arkham House]

31. You'll do great...just relax, take your time...

...fit into the role...it's incredibly cool, having you as a Mod...:-)...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

37. My dear Arkham House.......

Easier said than done....relaxing! I know I will, over time......

Thank you for such high praise......it means a lot to me....:hug:

[wildhorses]

33. WOW--I thought mods couldn't start threads--law #69

having to do with hot tubs or sumpin:P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

38. My dear wildhorses!

Well, heck.....nobody said anything about our not being able to start threads......

If this was a mistake, and I doubt it was, I will certainly hear about it!

Good to see you tonight, sweetie! :loveya: :hug:
