CarrieF Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I can't wait to finally hear SWB and Jessie Wise in person. :001_smile: Not to mention, MCT!!! Oh, and getting away with my girlfriends to do some eating out, talking, shopping, etc. won't be bad either! LOL :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are out of town for 8 days the week before and I just haven't been able to justify the time away yet. . .but I'm still working on it. I'm dying to hear SWB and JW!!!

5LittleMonkeys Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I sooooo want to go! I'm going to talk to dh about it tonight. He HATES me being gone even overnight and then there is what to do with the kids while I'm gone. I would only go Fri and Sat though because I couldn't be away for 3 days and couldn't afford the hotel for 2 nights. I'm babbling...hopefully I might see some of you there. Is there a WTM pin or something we can wear to recognize each other?:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy loves Bud Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I'll be there. Anyone want to meet up? Maybe Saturday lunch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mother Superior Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I'll be there. It's a 3 hour drive for me from Southern Illinois, but my two best girlfriends and I are going. Who'd a thought three 40-somethings would be so excited about a ROAD TRIP?!?!?!?!? By the way, we have 21 children between us-- our husbands might get together with all the kids while we are gone. That should be interesting. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarrieF Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 I am going with two of my closest girlfriends, too, and we CANNOT WAIT!!! It is funny, but I just got back from a week in Hawaii with my husband - which was lovely! - but I was looking forward to the Memphis/convention trip at least as much as I was to Hawaii. :001_smile: Meeting up would be great! Saturday lunch works. Now we just need to pick a spot to meet - any suggestions?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn E Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Well, I'm assuming that most, if not all, of us will be in the 11:30 to 12:30 workshop on Saturday SWB is doing on writing :001_smile: maybe we should hang around after the end and meet each other there. I'm not sure about a good place to do lunch, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarrieF Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 We could all bring our copies of TWTM to carry around after her lecture - ooo, maybe she would SIGN them for us! :D That is a good idea to try to meet after the lecture. Should we swarm the stage?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarrieF Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Okay, the week of the Memphis convention is FINALLY here! WHO IS AS EXCITED AS I AM?!?!? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boscopup Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Very excited! So much curriculum in one place! Ahhhhh! I haven't been to a convention before. I need to make my big list of what I want to look through. I have my list of speakers. Can't wait to see JW and SWB live. So cool. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriedClams Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) I'm going!!! I think. My friend who's watching my kids has been sick so I am still on the wait-and-see list... but I am still super excited. I think I can still definitely make it for shopping Saturday - worst case - or take the kids with me on Friday. Is there a meet-up planned? Who else is finalizing their "must look at in person before leaving the convention" list this week?!? What's on your list??

Amy loves Bud Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Okay, y'all, I'll see you in Ballroom A after SWB's talk on Saturday is over at 12:30. I have very, very short hair and I'll be wearing black flip flops. I don't know what else I'll be wearing because I haven't packed yet. I'll probably be at most of the SWB and MCT talks.

Dawn E Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I'll have a red carnation tucked behind my right ear. Just kidding. :001_smile: I have short brownish-blonde hair. I have no idea what I'll be wearing.... Looking forward to meeting you guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boscopup Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 We're leaving in a couple hours (I haven't packed yet! Ack!). At least Dawn has her picture in her avatar, so maybe we can all find her. :D Will there be a secret code word or hand shake? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
