Greetings Fellow Bloggers!

 

I blog regularly on the subject of accessible travel (travel for people with mobiity disabilities, from wheelchair-users to slow walkers) on my Barrier Free Trvels blog at www.BarrierFreeTravels.com. I've been blogging for about 4 years and am looking forward to meeting other bloggers and learning from you all at the BlogHer Conference in San Francisco.

What to do? Willing to learn...

By: JackieSue Posted: 3:50pm, Wed 14 May 2008 Topics: Mommy & Family FUNDRAISING BlogHer Conference 2008

LEARN ON-THE-JOB
I'm almost 4 years into this mommy thing and i feel like I'm finally getting into it. Balancing it all. Taking care of me, the house, the hubby and then kids, and not all in that order. I was just wondering what ideas do other mommies, new & experienced have to share?

"Are you still having bleeding?" He asks. I nod my head...my throat
is, once again, too tight to speak. I feel like an idiot. It's
medicine. Science. There's no room for emotion in science.

"Better or worse than yesterday?"

"Worse," I whisper, desperately looking to the ceiling, praying that
the tears won't spill over. Why do I care now? Why with a doctor, who
deals with this, and worse, on a daily basis. I guess hormones and
emotion know no logic.

BlogHer '08: Reserve Your Hotel Rooms ASAP!

By: Kristy Sammis Posted: 2:18pm, Thu 8 May 2008 Topics: BlogHer Conferences BlogHer Conference 2008 BlogHer Conference 2008 Updates

We have some very important information regarding making hotel reservations for the BlogHer '08 Conference in San Francisco!

As of this morning, we are at about 80% capacity on our room block. This means that there ARE still rooms available (really!), but our room block will sell out.

BlogHer 2008: Accessibility of Westin St. Francis

By: Liz Henry Posted: 6:19pm, Wed 7 May 2008 Topics: BlogHer Conferences Travel BlogHer Conference 2008 BlogHer Conference 2008 Updates

For over a year now, I have been traveling and going to professional conferences as a person with a disability, a wheelchair and crutches user. Abilities and disabilities vary wildly. My own issues are most often bathrooms, distances, exhaustion, and stairs. I am less aware of issues and solutions for people with visual impairments and for the deaf or hearing impaired community; I apologize for not addressing those issues here.

If you have mobility issues and wonder about the accessible geography of the conference, I have a ton of information!

A Letter to my Body

By: WonderSpot Posted: 7:28pm, Mon 5 May 2008 Topics: BlogHer Conference 2008 Letter To My Body

Dear body,

I know it’s not your fault, what happened this weekend. Not entirely, anyway. But still. It’s hard for me. It’s hard not to be angry with you. It’s hard not to feel betrayed. It’s hard not to rage against you for getting rid of what I so desperately wanted.

Calling All Artists: Let's Talk about Swap Meet Magic for BlogHer '08

By: jen lemen Posted: 2:57pm, Mon 5 May 2008 Topics: Art & Design BlogHer Conference 2008

Maybe you were there the summer of 2006 in San Jose, chatting up t-shirts with Mrs. Kennedy, trying on SuperHero necklaces with Andrea, wondering where you could get the oh-so-brand new design from Baby Brewing.

Well, I was there, sisters, and I want that Swap Meet back. How about you?

President Uses High Gas Prices to Bushwhack Arctic Refuge

President Uses High Gas Prices to Bushwhack Arctic Refuge

Gas prices are sending everyone into a state of hysteria. But the fact that the cost of gasoline is skyrocketing should come as no surprise to anyone: the planet has a limited amount of petroleum, and people have been using it up as fast as it gets sucked out of the ground, processed in a refinery, and trucked to the nearest pump. That prices are finally approaching $4.00 a gallon is actually a welcome development from an environmental point of view.

Israelis Put Family First

By: Renee Lynn Posted: 4:27pm, Thu 24 Apr 2008 Topics: Mommy & Family Race, Ethnicity & Culture Sex & Relationships Middle East Single Motherhood Racial & Cultural Issues BlogHer Conference 2008

I am invited to go clubbing in Tel Aviv by two Israeli women
in their mid-thirties. They tell me they’re not ‘heading out’ until 11 pm or
so. Before then, one has an errand to run and a friend to see, another who is a
blogger, has work to do and then may grab drinks with friends before we meet at
the club.

BlogHer '08 Buttons: I'm Going! I'm Speaking! I'm...

By: Kristy Sammis Posted: 7:57pm, Tue 22 Apr 2008 Topics: BlogHer Conferences BlogHer Conference 2008 BlogHer Conference 2008 Updates

What would the BlogHer annual conference be without some proper blog bling?

Sure, the first order of business is actually registering. And then it'd be awesome if you'd like to add yourself to our ever-growing roster of attendees.

But even if you haven't gotten around to these first steps (ahem, tick tock), it's never too early to add BlogHer '08 badge beauty to your blog. We've worked up our Official "I'm Going!" and "I'm Speaking" buttons for you again this year. But we've also added a few more "personal" buttons to the mix. (You're doing what at BlogHer?)

Check 'em out:
