\"\"<\/a>This post is a bit overdue – I was supposed to write it at least a week ago. With so much going on at SOSsitter each day it was pushed back. You know the feeling of\u00a0something\u00a0that needs to be done and it is not done? It is\u00a0getting\u00a0heavier and launder each day. So today, a gloomy Friday here in Montreal, I decided to finally share the event with you, or more preciously my highlights. It was an\u00a0exciting and fun\u00a0event, and I am very glad I went.<\/p>\n

Two weeks ago, I went for the very first time to Blissdom Canada<\/a>, a blogging conference in Toronto. And what a conference it was!\u00a0Packed\u00a0with information and\u00a0learnings with great workshop sessions (my Twitter technique should be much better now), providing incredible motivation boosts with smart speakers and PLENTY of opportunities to mingle and know other bloggers. I was able to put faces to quite a few known Twitter handles @mombizcoach, @bitofmomsense, @erinblaskie, and many more.\u00a0For connecting and knowing bloggers, this is a really good place to be. And so much fun.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

However, my highlight was the day after the event, where participants (me!!! \ud83d\ude42 ) were invited to an\u00a0excursion\u00a0of their choice. I chose to go to GM’s plant for the #chevybliss event. It was, as my 7 year old would say, AWESOME!<\/p>\n

The team at \u00a0GM<\/a> had put all the stops for us – a real VIP treatment. \u00a0We had the\u00a0opportunity\u00a0to test drive great cars: loved the all electric Volt, the Camero (by far the favorite with a lot of ladies), the newest Buick (quite impressed by the interior), and few others. Then we saw how cars are designed, bits by bits, with a highly specialized software that just puts all the pieces together, and then we had my favorite bit – the obstacle course – or “See how this car breaks on a wet surface”. \u00a0The pictures do not do\u00a0justice\u00a0to the feeling of being a race\u00a0car driver. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The #chevybliss visit was absolutely a Hoot. Lara Galloway<\/a>, from #mombizcoach, was great to summarize our the\u00a0excitement\u00a0with several life Tweets from the event<\/a>. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

See you next time at Blissdom 2013!<\/p>\n
