Blissdom 2010


I am tired...in a good way. I quickly jumped back into my life. There should be some sort of a re-entry period after Blissdom...you know...like the astronauts when they come back from space. I couldn't wait to see my girlies. They made cute little "Welcome Home Mom" signs for me. I took a shower, made artichoke dip and went to a Super Bowl Party. I'm thankful that Harry Connick Jr. didn't cancel on us...a true southern gentleman with true southern integrity! Thanks Harry! I had great roomies, met lots of my blog crushes ate alot of food and was on information overload...all in a very good way! Needless to say I'm still processing. I'm so behind, I just figured out how to put a twitter app on my black berry.

The most important thing I learned was to be yourself, be genuine...let YOUR voice be heard! That's the reason I started this blog anyway. I wanted a place to express myself, my creative sewing endeavors and DIY house projects. I wanted to share with people what I had and how they could also do it. I learned it's not about getting, but giving! It's about encouraging and supporting one another with the gifts you've been given. I love this community. I look forward to next year.

  13. I would so love to go to Blissdom! Except I'm super shy in real life, and I'd be afraid that no one would care if they met me or not!
