I Could Use Your Help

Welcome back!

skimbacoAs you have probably read I”m trying to get to Blissdom, a bloggers conference in Nashville next month. I went last year had a wonderful experience and want to repeat. There are various contests online and one is a writing contest. As I am a writer this one appealed me. Today, my post is up at Skimbaco. Can you do me a favor and go comment? Thanks!

Hoppin’ to It

I am hoppin‘ to it and getting my “I’m not at BlogHer post” up, though I’m not tearful about NOT being at BlogHer, because I am on vacation with my family and family comes first. We’re here in Chattanooga, TN the great hometown of the creator of this bloggy party, Robin from Pensieve. She’s hosting BlogHop09 for those of us NOT at BlogHer. So, let the party begin and my family and I will continue our vacationing.

I am excited to spend some time reading all of your blogs and getting to know you as my late night “net fix” since I’m too much of a nerd to get away and disconnect completely even on vacation. So, here’s a little about me to help you get to know me in 5 min. or less.

WHO IS ALYSSA:

  1. Hands down a total unashamed, Christian, which means I have a relationship with Jesus Christ.
  2. My occupation is three-fold, ok maybe four-fold, Christian writer and speaker, full-time wife and mom.
  3. Starting Monday, I am the new Inspired Bliss editor over at Blissfully Domestic.
  4. I attended my first blogging conference in February 09, Blissdom and plan to attend my second Type A Mom in September 09.
  5. I am addicted to Coca Cola Classic.  I am a red can gal.

But, that’s enough about me, what about you leave me your link in my comments and I’ll come visit you.  Let me know what we have in common, because if there is one thing I know about the world of blogging is we all seem to have at least one thing in common and that’s why I love being a blogger.

If you want to know more about me just click around my blog here I”m sure you’ll learn a thing or two.  So, get hoppin’ and I’ll see you around!  Be sure to follow me on Twitter.

Not Everybody

All the buzz around the blogosphere right now is over BlogHer, a massive bloggers conference in Chicago. I am not attending blog her and amazingly enough though 1500 bloggers are going to be in attendance there are plenty others of us who aren’t. In fact, I will be on vacation during BlogHer, which I am super excited about. I might even get to see one of my favorite bloggers, Robin, as I am visiting her hometown and she’s well, going to be there, as she isn’t attending BlogHer either.

She’s also going to be helping us bloggers who will still be home, blogging about normal, everyday life, or in my case, family vacation to have our own little party. Blog Hop 09′ and it is going to be a blast. I’m super excited about it, because it has some great prizes, including a $150 scholarship to Type A Mom Conference in September, which I’m already planning to attend, but boy would I love some help getting there.

So, you going to BlogHer? Or are you going Blog Hopping with me and Robin and some other gals? Let me know in the comments below.
