This weekend is one of the two blogging events I've wanted to attend ever since last year. Blissdom is held in Nashville, TN. I said (last year) that I was definitely going in 2011. Guess what? Blissdom coincides with my wonderful husband's birthday. So it was a "no brainer". I would definitely not be going to Blissdom this year. (sigh). There is a blog hop going on, though, for those not in attendance this year and it's called No Go Blissdom sponsored by Mom with A Minivan and the Blizzard Blog Hop sponsored by Household 6 Diva! I am participating because... well, I hate being left out. Three questions were suggested... simple enough. I can't wait to see the other's posts and mingle, network and just have some of our own "girl time" with those not there. So let's get started, ok?
1. When did you start blogging and Why?
Good question. I "opened" my blog in 2009, but it just sat there for months, because I didn't have a clue what to do with it. Why did I start blogging? Hmmm... well, to broaden my scope of friends. Virtual as they may be, they're still friends.
2. What is one thing you are going to do this week that is WAY cooler than going to Blissdom?
I mentioned it's my wonderful husband's birthday. Need I say more?
3. Share a post that you think says a lot about you or is your favorite. (share the link in YOUR post so we all can see)
Ok, that one's easy. Last year, the day before my birthday, I was the featured blogger on SITS (Secret is in the Sauce) and I'm going to link to that post, DO check it out , it's called: I'm the Featured Blogger at SITS ( catchy title, right?)
Ok, now, I've answered my required 3 questions,and introduced myself in a short and sweet order...now I'm off to visit, mingle and interface with the other bloggers. Come and join me!
Ah...virtual bliss! Love it! I love reading your answers. I would have loved to have attended Bliss but it wasn't happening...not this year! Thanks for sharing this great idea!!!

ReplyDeleteYou sound like a lot of fun! I can just tell! I'm glad you didn't get to Blissdom this year because now I'm your newest follower! : ) Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry you didn't get to go this year but it looks like you are having fun anyway by joining in with the rest of the no-goers :) I guess I didn't even hear about it so that is why I didn't go.
