I know, it's been a long time since you've all seen me around here. I'm just not in the right place mentally right now. Some of you have gone through this yourselves and know what I mean. For those that haven't, it's tough to explain. Just know that I still love you all and this place and what it stands for, and that once I get myself sorted out I'll come back to you all. My absence has NOTHING to do with any of you or the TMF itself. It's me and only me. My life outside of here is good....Laz and I are still deliriously happy together (6 1/2 years....that's supposed to be the make it or break it point, right? LOL), we have our families, our home, our health....all is good. So if anyone has been worrying, please don't. I'm fine. Everything is fine. I just need more me time to get my head straight and when I do I'll be back with little toe bells ringing, okay? 
Now for what I came to share with you guys. I realize it may not seem like too big of a deal to anyone but me. If there's anyone on the forum who is familiar with Les Toil and his art, then you'll understand what a phenomenal event this is, at least on my part. For those who haven't yet been introduced to him (which is understandable as most people prefer traditional pinup art), Les Toil is the world's premier BBW pinup artist. To be a BBW and become a "Toil Girl" is like winning the honor of being Playboy Bunny of the year. It's just an unbelievable honor. You're immortalized forever as a BBW Pinup model in the art world. Now, I've actually had this portrait for over a year, so some of you may remember me using it last year for a bit as my signature image. But Les has been quite behind on showcasing new Toil Girls in the spotlight on his website, so as of yet I've not been an 'official' Toil Girl. Well, this month I finally made it to the spotlight on his website, and am now an official Toil Girl.
The reason I am sharing this with you guys is because you, my long standing friends here...the ones that were with me from the start, played a big role in the concept I chose for my portrait. When Les came to me and told me my time had come to be showcased in the spotlight, he asked me to write down some things about myself and my portrait to go into my page for the site. Since you all inspired the concept so much, I wanted to be sure I paid equal tribute to you in my write up. And thus I did so. And now I'd like to share that with you.

Thank you so much to those of you who got me to this point in my life. I know I'm in a weird place right now, but you've all done more for me than I can ever say, and just know that I appreciate it so very much, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there for me and helping to make me what I am. I love you guys, so much.
P.S. Please know that I'm still a bit shy about the exact nature of my fetish, so I do still beat around the bush about it and let people draw their own conclusions to what it just might be. I throw a hint or two in there, but I'll admit I'm still too much of a chicken to come right out and say it. So please don't think down of me for being so vague on the topic.
