A Random Thought...sorta 3T Related

in Trouble TTC
After all of the discussions from the past several days in regards to bringing awareness to IF by random acts of kindness, this really got me thinking about how wonderful all of you women are. From my short time here, I have observed that all of you have such big hearts, kindness, and lil bit of snark! This is a wonderful, supportive group of women!!!

With that being said, have any of you ever considered attempting to meet up with each other? We all talk to each other from behind the keyboard and screen names and I think, it would be nice to eventually put screen names with faces.

Thoughts???

    For some reason I have conference on the brain, but maybe try to find a central location, for most, and make it a weekend trip or something like that. I know time and money would be an issue, but, on the other hand, it might make for a good mini vacay.

    Another thought: break everyone down my regions i.e. Southeast, Northeast, west coast, etc. I am in Alabama and would be willing to help find somewhere where we all can get together, talk, and have some fun.

    @lindy04aggie and @AnnaClaire256 Do I sense a hint of SEC football rivalry????
