I'm happy and sad at the same time. Lisa, you will be sadly missed. There goes the last bit of the humor out of a very humorless working environment! Full support for you, though. If you get bored, there's always more room in the blogosphere for one more blogger!! I missed this post yesterday!! I'm happy and sad at the same time. Lisa, you will be sadly missed.

If Tuned In actually becomes Tuned Out, then I will officially abandon blog reading. The heartbreak is too much. I'm sorry its come to this Lisa. Over the past year, I've come to depend regularly on your particular dose of workplace sanity. I have a feeling it will many a sad morning when I stumble into work, bleary eyed and uncaffeinated and try and navigate to WiP only to find that its no longer progressing. A Tip of the Hat to you and the family. Good luck and hopefully we see you again sooner rather than later. A big wag of the finger to the economy.
