Exciting Opportunity
Today I got invited to present at a work-related conference coming up this spring! I’m nervous but excited because I really love networking with others in my field, and I think that what my workplace is doing around data and information management is really unique and awesome so I love having the chance to talk about it. But ack, standing up in front of people! And talking!! Coherently!!!
The first obstacle, though, is figuring how I can go out of town for two days without my children. The conference is three days long and even if I only go for my presentation I’ll still need to be gone for two days as it’s a six to seven hour drive to get there.
Hopefully I can figure something out because I’d really rather not miss out on this opportunity!

What about bringing someone with you - hiring a nanny for those days or something like that? Worth at least looking into- it might be fun to take the kids on a trip (and of course it WOULD be fun to get some time off!) - but either way, you can make it work! Would Grandma come from Hawaii and stay with them and would you feel good about that?
