that I am not going to conference! I really want to go and have no excuse not to except that my hubby is sooooooo NOT on board with it. Even if a miracle occurred and $500 fell in my lap, I don't know if I can make it work on such short notice (little ones, hotel room, etc). My director even offered to advance me the money for my plane ticket and I could pay her back in payments and my hubby vetoed it. Can somebody give me some words of comfort to ease my aching heart? :cry:
