I was greeted at the door by @SwarthyDaisy. Even though she and I have attended several of the same events, we had never met face to face. Its always fun meeting people that i have chatted with online. She is just as friendly and outgoing as i thought she'd be. I was the 1st one there so I helped her and her husband set up the giftbags that she'd prepared for us.
The bags were filled with various items that I cant wait to try!!
I especially loved my pick!! |
As the guests arrived one by one we were all introduced and began to mingle. I met some AMAZING people from various online arenas. The area of Women & Finance was represented by @AndreaAmir founder of Smart Money Chicks a site that helps to create financially savvy women through education, webinars, discussions and events. Health & Wellness was represented by Dalia Kinsey (@EatingBeautiful) She is the creator of EatingBeautiful.com a site that explains how we can escape the diet trap by making certain lifestyle changes. In the area of Technology we were introduced to Reggie Levine. Reggie has a website and a YouTube channel dedicated to giving advice, demonstrations and tutorials on all of the latest gadgets from phones to keyboards to gaming system controllers. You can find him on Twitter @LeReg on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/user/LeReg and on the net http://www.reggielevine.net/. Art, Photography & Jewelry was represented by Wilma Jean aka @MsLeJean. Her "She" art series is outstanding and I am hoping to grace my walls with one of her pieces soon. Do yourself a favor and check out her work http://wilmajean.com/. Other folk in the house were @WritesALot, @HelloLT, @Lucy_Pearl, @hicksgirl93, @WatchTheShoes, @JavonStyles. @uncleshecky and @LadyLovelyPeace <~~ A SUPER Positive chick that I was already following on Twitter...
Long Story Short
