BLOGHER!!!!!
I’ve been seeing all the ads for BlogHer and She Speaks… and I was bummed. Just to make me feel better, I looked at the airfare because I knew that it would be the deal breaker. Come on… gas is high, airfares are high and I knew that seeing a $600 plane ticket from here to San Fran was going to make me realize that it wasn’t going to happen.
So I looked.
$313.
Uh oh….
That makes it affordable.
But there was still the cost of the hotel…
But when I told my friend Sally, who happens to live in San Francisco, that I was thinking about going, she asked if I wanted to stay with her.
Uh oh…
it’s affordable again.
Oh… but what about the kids?
Checking the calendar, they will be with their grandparents.
We’re back to thinking about it again.
I called the BFF. I gave her 5 minutes to talk me out of it.
She said go.
So, I did it.
I purchased the registration and my airfare.
That’s when I realized that it’s 30 days away! Like a month!
And then?
and unexpected financial blessing was bestowed upon me that almost covered the cost of the trip.
And so, I’m going.
Are you?
Until next time….
