TLC
Can you all believe its August already??? For the Midwest (and probably alot of the country in the US) that means back to school!!
What a month for TLC and WOSIB in July! Busy month for us TLC'ers and with the hacking of the WOSIB site, its nice to know things are back to normal.
We have made a few changes (again!) in TLC. Since Pamster and Becca have stepped down from WOSIB and turned the reins over to Idgie and I, we have decided to delegate some duties in TLC, since neither of us want to leave you.
Idgie has taken over as Spoiling Head for me. To keep our spoiling teams going, she has selected two assistants; Megan, who will be sending out assignments every week, and Akaysha, who will be handling all the spoiling reports. We are very lucky to have two willing and able ladies like this who can help us keep you all spoiled!!
In Support, Lady Sessiie has gotten another assistant! Along with Mandy, Kimber has stepped up to assist, and with both of these wonderful ladies, and LS on the helm, I know that our support team is stronger than before.
In Graphics, Tina has also gotten herself a very able assistant; Aletha has agreed to step up and give Tina a hand with our Graphics Shop.
Thank you all, dearest assistants! for giving us the hand we need as this transitition goes into place!!! And thanks to all of you, our dear WOSIB sisters, for allowing us to continue to give you the extra TLC you need.
Hugs,
Jeri

Dearest Members -
Believe it or not, Idgie does not have a lot to say this month in regards to the TLC Spoiling Garden. I am going to give the spotlight to my Incredible Assistants, Megan and Akaysha! These Wonderful Ladies have stepped into their new staff positions like a comfortable pair of shoes and I am so very grateful that they both agreed to accept leadership roles. They are doing a fantastic job and I Love Them Oodles!!! Without such a strong and united staff, I would not have been able to remain in a staff position at TLC Spoiling while trying to learn my duties as a new Co-Leader. This Garden is Very Near and Dear to My Heart and I Am Blessed to Know it is in Such Loving, Capable Hands!
Love & Hugs from Idgie

Hiya WOSIB, Akaysha here! I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountians, and share my abode with several ferret furkids, a species-confused dog (poor Molly THINKS she's a ferret), a couple of hermit crabs, and a boomerang 24 year old son who left home once and... came back! I work in the electronics department of a large toy company (the one with the backwards "R" lol) and being a kid and gamer at heart, this suits me just fine! I'm a self-admitted XBox360 addict, and between my son and I we have 5 different systems and hand-helds in the house! I joined WOSIB to meet new people and the TLC Garden in particular to give a little smile where and when I can! My motto is "my inner child is alive, well and in control; its my outer adult that needs work", and firmly believe that age is JUST a number! I look forward to helping Jeri, Idgie and Megan, and hopefully will do the best I can to do my part to help keep WOSIB the best on the net!! Hugs to all!

Hi! I'm Megan and I live in Brisbane, in beautiful subtropical Queensland Australia. I am a SAHM of 4.. three are currently at home with my husband and myself. I have three sons aged 22, 19 and 14 and a little fairy daughter who is 5. I have a wide range of hobbies including bellydance, drumming, digital artwork, learning PSP, photography, crocheting, weaving and reading. I am a trained counsellor and advocate and have worked in that role in women's crisis centres. I joined TLC quite simply so I could spoil other women. I feel that people need to be valued, validated and loved unconditionally, and this is an outlet for me to do that for those who need it most. To be honest I ummed and ahhed about becoming Assistant Head in the garden, but ultimately it was my love of the work and the vision of the good that is done by the TLC members that encouraged me to accept. Oh and the fun of working with Idgie!
Love and Blessings
Megan
