I had no idea you were there! I look forward to meeting you some time in the future. Meanwhile we'll have to settle for keeping in touch on the web! Thank you for looking for me, and for your comment.

After all the hastily rearranged flight schedules, I finally got in late that Friday night. I looked for you on Saturday, to no avail. All the better to meet at #BAMC16 or on your turf, without the ice and snow!

K.

If you took my name out of what you just wrote and inserted yours, that would be the same comment I'd write to you. I love calling you "That" (wasn't I so cute? Not!) I'd love to chat with you and I wish there was more time. You are an amazing woman and I'm so glad I got to hug you!!! xoxo

You were in that group of women. My hope is that next time (and I love saying that!) that I can rectify missing out on getting a chance to spend some time with you. In the meantime, please accept this virtual hug!

Your infectious smile and warm personality were a delight, and I only wish there was more time to chat! Thanks you for leaving your comment, and can you feel the virtual hug I'm not sending to you? Big hugs and please stay in touch. Cathy

You are just as warm and bright in person as you are online. Actually, no. Can't beat the hugs and being able to see your bright smile right in front of me. Thank you for being so approachable! And yes, it was a great conference, a wonderful group!

And I hope I can see you soon. It's ridiculous that we don't get together more often. Ah, life. Perhaps the Philly Conference if we both decide to go! xo

And I was so glad to at least SEE you even if we didn't have a chance to chat. I hope our paths cross again soon someday!

I just wish I had more time to spend with you and all those other awesome women.

So glad we made it through the snow and icy weather to a beautiful event in Nashville.
