It seems these past few days have been a series of fortunate events for me.
Even this mini-blizzard has afforded me an extra hour this morning.
Of course I use it to write, not sleep.
Read one of my favorite Boston bloggers Yi-Chia’s take
on how we deal with this weather (hint: we don’t, deny deny deny!)
Having gone through a somewhat tough period it seems the clouds have parted
as they always do, reminding me how fortunate I truly am.
I was meant to attend an event last week but did not do so due to feeling
sick. I sent a message to someone who had RSVP’d as going and asked how it went.
It had been quite a while since we had previously chatted, but we know dozens of
the same people and after a bit of back and forth she said:
“How do you even know about my life for the last 5 years!?”
I was taken aback. This girl has achieved a somewhat kind of “local” fame but
had it really gone to her head that she felt I was stalking her every move?
Yikes. Let that never, ever be my attitude…
There are a few changes coming to this little blog.
As my readership is expanding I wish to provide more of the content you value
most, better photography, new features and a few surprises for good measure.
I am about to embark on a little trip down South with one of my blogger buddies
turned good friend, Jodi. Dallas and Blissdom here we come.
It will be in the 70’s when I land. I’ll take it.
None of the cast from Most Eligible Dallas will be there he’s just yummy.
Being a lifestyle blogger attending my first national conference, in packing I wonder
if I should stick to my easily identifiable New England preptastic fare.
Or should I bring the more fashionable pieces that are a bit less wearable around
Boston (where they must be toned down with neutrals) and risk someone
thinking I am a fashion blogger (who am I kidding, I do not have to worry about that.)
I know the answer, I will be bringing my leather shorts, eye-catching emerald, gorgeous
heels and anything else that strikes my fancy while packing, last minute no less.
My go-to dark skinnies will be added in there for good measure.
I know, I wrote a piece on Ways to Pack Like A Pro but my real life is more of a
How to Cram Every Piece You May Wear Into That Too Tiny Carry-On.
If I were an uber blogger I would have exciting guest-posts for you to read in
my absence. Maybe next year haha!
I have no idea if I will have the time or energy to blog at night,
but I will be uploading every sight via my Instagram
and tweetin‘ all the live long day.
Have you attended a blogging conference? Which?
And if not which would you like to attend?
Have a great Tuesday!

March 19, 2013Have a great time at the conference! (And yay for an extra hour of sleep … snow days are the one good thing about this year's extra long winter.)

March 19, 2013I don't like people like that. It's a wonder people feel it's ok to talk to another person that way. It actually makes me uneasy.
I''ve never been to a blog conference! Have the best time! I will have to follow you on Instagram! I'm so surprised I didn't even know you had one!

March 20, 2013Having read this I thought it was extremely enlightening.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to put this information together.
I once again find myself personally spending a lot of time both reading and commenting.
But so what, it was still worth it!
