My recruiter isn't going, plus if possible, I think it would be great to meet some consultants out of my region.

Are you flying out of LGA? If so what flight? Do you have the room booked yet? If so, I can contact some of the LI girls & let them know. I go to the LI meetings also. Are you going to the New Consultant meeting this coming Monday at Jills House?....ooops way too many ???? huh!!! :o

I'll be flying out from JFK, I've already been to Jill's new consultant meeting (about 2 months ago). The LI meetings are pretty far for me so I don't go every month, I'm sure you'll see me there once in a blue. I have a few leads on open rooms, thanks.

Good for you, so I guess I'll see you at the City Island meeting....

hope to see you then
 
I haven't decided for 100% that I am going to make it to conference this year but if I do I will be looking for a roommate myself for Wave 3. I emailed my director and let her know that I was trying to go to conference and have not heard a word back from her on the subject. Same thing happened with leadership and I didn't end up going. I really want to make it to conference this year, but with a big move coming up in September I just keep thinking about what else I could use the money for.

My biggest issue is leaving my 16 month baby behind. :(
His Daddy is awesome and is planning on taking off, but being a stay at home mom I've never been away from my little guy.

Mine was just 13 months when I left him for conference...w/ his daddy who is awesome. It was my first time leaving him too, and I was so worried!

Turns out, it was much harder on me than on him...in fact, they were having so much fun building a Jungle Gym in the back yard when I came home, that he barely even acknowledged me!

For sure, much harder on us than them
 
Oh, see mine is 2 1/2 and I've never left him either. I'm a stay at home mom, too, and actually we did leave him overnight, at our house, with my mom one time but I was with my husband. Now leaving him alone with his daddy is totally freaking me out.
