You Are All in for A Treat!

Man...I feel like all I have done is leave you guys for the last two weeks. Probably because I have, I've been gone a lot this month. Don't worry after this trip I will be back home until the end of August when I go back to Youngstown again.

I leave early tomorrow morning for Chicago. One of my best friends Megan lives there. I'm so excited to see her and her family. It sounds really odd to say but we have been friends for eight years and I have never met her husband. I was supposed to be in her wedding, but Shawn and I were unable to go at the very last minute. I will be spending an entire weekend with her, her husband and little boy. I can hardly wait!! I'm so excited to be visiting her and spending some real quality time with Meg. Meg came to visit me shortly after I had my D&C. We talk on the phone nearly every day, but a visit in person is going to be wonderful.

I know we have lots of shopping planned. We are also going to be spending some time with her family as well. Then on Saturday we are having a girls night. We are going to a club that has a Teekii lounge outside (no idea how to spell Teekii) This should be a great night. We also plan on just hanging out and spending time at her house. I will be taking my camera so be ready for lots of pictures when I get home.

Are you all ready for a big surprise I have for you all...?

While I'm gone I have decided to have eight different guest blogger's post for me. So you will all be able to ready my blog everyday even while I'm gone. How cool is that?! Some of you may know my guest posters from blog you already read and some of the guests maybe new to you. I hope this will be fun for everybody. For me to read what other people post about. For you to read and get to know a new blogger and for the guests to be able to blog on A Tale of Two Coins. I have left it open to each guest as to what they blog about. Should be interesting to see the 'style' everyone will go with. At first I was going to keep you all in suspense everyday as to who the guest for that day was going to be. Then I thought about it and figured I would just go a head and share the schedule with you.

Tomorrow - my friend Nicole will be my guest. I have known Nicole for about a year and a half. We met on the WebMD trying to conceive boards. Nicole has already posted for me two different times. However, it wasn't a happy post. Nicole was the one to write and tell you all that Shawn had just died. Nicole doesn't have a blog of her own...yet. Maybe this will make her decide to start her own blog. (Come on Nicole you know you want to!) Oh...Nicole is kinda nervous to post for me so will you all be extra nice to her! Thanks.

Wednesday-Jodi from http://ourcrazylife81.blogspot.com/ will be my guest. Neither one of us can really remember how we met. We think it was from a blog that we both read, but can't remember. Anyways come to find out we only live about 20 minutes from each other and have met once for lunch. I'm sure more meetings will be in our future.

Thursday-One of my best friends in the entire world Jennie from http://happymayhem.blogspot.com/ will be posting. You all have heard me talk about Jennie in my posts. She is a great great friend and I really don't know how I would have gotten through this last almost 11 months without her support. Who knows what Jennie will write about, so be prepared for anything!

Friday-Kristin from http://toddandkristin.blogspot.com/ will posting. Kristin and I met through the big world of blogging. Now we are Facebook buddies as well. Kristin is so funny and I love reading her comments and status updates on Facebook.

Saturday belongs to Nancy at http://thenewlifeofnancy.blogspot.com/. I'm about 100% sure most of you have read Nancy's blog. We too met at the WebMD trying to conceive boards and have known her for a year and a half. I love Nancy because she tells it to you straight up. Every now and again she will throw a little attitude into her blog and it is great to read. She has also been a wonderful blogging friend since Shawn has passed away.

Sunday's guest will be Amy from http://keepingupwiththeschultzfamily.blogspot.com/. I don't really remember how Amy and I met. I think it may have been through the great thing we call blogging. Maybe Amy will know exactly how. Anyways Amy's blog is great and she is always doing really fun things on her blog. You should all go and check it out.

Monday will be Jayme from http://thewonderfulworldofjayme.blogspot.com/. Again, Jayme and I met on the WebMd trying to conceive boards. I have known Jayme for about a year and a half as well. Jayme is possibly one of the sweetest people I have met through blogging. She always leaves me the sweetest comments, even when she is having a hard day herself. Jayme, you make me smile.

Tuesday belongs all to Dot from http://hopesanddreamsforus.blogspot.com/. Once again, you guessed it. We met on the WebMd trying to conceive board. Dot is the glue that holds everyone together on the trying to conceive for over 12 months board. She is always there to lend support and encouragement to everyone on that board. Thanks Dot!! Dot and I are planning on meeting up sometime this summer, as we only live about two hours from each other.

Ok, there you have it...the line up of guest blogger's for the week while I'm in Chicago. I hope you all have fun with this. I know I will...I can't wait to read each and every post. Thank you so much to each guest...it means a lot to me!

I don't know if I will be on the computer a whole lot while I'm gone. We have lots of stuff planned, however if I do have some down time I will for sure be checking on everyone. Please forgive me if I don't post any comments while I'm gone. It usually takes me a little over an hour a day to read each and every blog and leave a comment and I'm just not sure I will be able to do that during this trip. Sorry all!! However, I will be thinking about each and every one of you and I will be back to my commenting self once I get back next Tuesday!!

I don't get back into town until next Tuesday night, so sometime Wednesday I will be posting about my trip.

Oh one more thing...both times I fly I have to switch planes in a pretty big airport. I've been told I just have to find the right gate and it should be easy. But you all know me...I'm horrible with directions. I would appreciate it if you would all keep your fingers crossed that I don't get lost and make both of my connecting flights. Fingers crossed and a prayer or two would be wonderful!

Until next week...have fun...enjoy my guests...and be safe!!
