It already has...

I know. I keep getting the page "QVC Temporarily Unavailable. Making Updates."

Anyhow...I knew as soon as I saw her serious face at the top of the hour and then heard her serious voice what she was going to say. She said after much thought, she has decided to leave QVC in December and "We will talk again."

She's one smart cookie (where does that expression come from? lol) and I'm sure she will be successful in whatever she chooses to do.

Nooooooooooooooo....

via facebook and her blog:

Thank you for 20 years. I couldn't fit it all in a FB post, so I wrote a blog http://qvc.co/AMessageFromLisa

23 years ago I got my first job in television shopping. It wasn't something that I always knew I wanted to do, it was something I was lucky enough to fall into because I really needed a job! Ironically, it suits my skills very well. I love to shop and I love talking to people . Over my last 20 years at QVC I have had the most amazing opportunities met the most wonderful people and gone to the most beautiful places. I cannot tell you how lucky I feel. But there comes a time when you have done what you can do and it is time to see what else there is. And that is where I am. After a lot of soul-searching I have decided that I will be leaving QVC. It is time for a new challenge and a new adventure. Although it is a little scary to leave what you have always known, I am very excited about what lays ahead. My greatest hope is that the friends that I have made here will continue to be my friends in the future. There are many people that I work with that I care for deeply and will miss seeing on a regular basis, but I know that we will make time for each other in our lives. Although I will miss talking to you on a regular basis through your television, I do hope that you will find time for me in your life in the future as well. Luckily, we live in an age where it is easier to stay in touch. After all, that's what social media is for. In the next few months, before I leave on December 12, I will treasure every moment more because I know I will not have them much longer. But I will also treasure the opportunity to be excited about what is to come.

Thank you for your kindness, support and friendship throughout the years. It has meant more to me than I can say. You have brightened my darker times and been there when I needed a smile, and I hope that we can continue to do that for each other in the years to come.

See you soon,
Lisa

This sounds so much like Patty Riley's goodbye and we never saw her again. I know Lisa will do well in whatever her future hold but Lisa in my book is the face of QVC.

May I say ""amazing"".

She said she's leaving on December 12th. I wonder why she decided to announce it this far in advance. Good luck to her.

Now what will some do without Lisa to bash?
