Blissed Out About Blissdom

It’s a blogging conference for women – and thanks to Mom Masterminds, I’m going!

I’m excited. Totally excited.

This will be the first conference of its kind that I’ve ever attended. While I’ve been to large business conferences before (the last time, I was wearing an 8 month old Ilana in the sling. It was so much fun and she was a huge hit!), this is the first blogging conference I’ve been to.

In the past the price was a bit steep, or the venue so far that I would have to fly, or I couldn’t get childcare, but with this everything dovetailed nicely.

Blissdom is in Nashville this year, which is a comfortable 4 hour drive, all highway, from my home here in Atlanta. The kids will be with their Father that weekend (and it’s a short one and a half day conference). The price was affordable (the swag beckoning… lol!), and mostly the idea of meeting some of my favorite and much admired bloggers (like Stephanie of Adventures in Babywearing and SimpleMom) just pickles me tink.

Not to mention the opportunity to learn some awesome stuff about improving my blogging strills!

But I don’t want to be selfish and keep it all to myself.

That wouldn’t be very bloggy of me, would it?

So I want to know what YOU want to know.

I’ll be blogging live and Tweeting live and taking lots of pictures (and hopefully borrowing a video camera from someone – Mom are you reading this? LOL! I didn’t get the video camera in the divorce agreement!) and tons of notes.

I’m an avid note taker, but instead of just typing and jotting down what is interesting to ME, I want to give my note taking some purpose and try to answer questions from YOU.

If you were going to be there, what would you ask, and of whom?

Take a look at the line up of speakers and sessions.

And let me know below what your top questions are. I’ll listen hard and do my absolute best to find the answers, ok?

And be checking back here and here on Friday and Saturday, February 6 and 7 for my answers.

:-)

Mom Masterminds is sponsoring me.

Anyone interested in sponsoring my wardrobe? ;)
