Roll call

Where the bejeeeezus is everyone? Has everyone migrated to the board that shall not be named?

I propose a roll call because I MISS YOU LADIES!

Lurkers, this would be a fine time to introduce yourselves. We don't bite. Smile

    "Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer have even a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing

  • I wasn't around today because I had the day off - kid free!!! :) I did errands this morning, went to lunch with my wife, watched some tv, picked up the kids from camp, and have been doing our nightly routine. I should be around tomorrow if I am not too swamped from being out! :)

  • I'm (mostly) a lurker but definitely here and at the Lord Voldemort of boards. Mostly I read and every once in a while post or reply - mainly, we haven't actually started TTC quite yet so I feel a little out of place participating so much.

  • I'm here. I've just been MIA because I've had a kidney stone and infection and have been doped up on pain meds for almost a week. Our trip to hospital and C's care of me all week has been very affirming in her ability to care for me through ttc/pg. I hope to be posting more frequently from now on. Call me out if I don't!

  • I'm late, as usual, but I'm here.  Can I just say, keeping up with 2 boards, of the same people is annoying?  I wish we could all just pick one, like the good old days.  I have a post, in my head, from this weekend, actually, I have many, but I don't post them because I don't know where to post.  To post is to decide which audience I want and double posting is too much work.  So I don't post anywhere.

    I have a feeling 2 boards = the end of online Jean.  Since the split, I rarely check. The old people are over there, the new people are over here and now there is little action anywhere.  I'm on my month board much more often and I don't really know any of them.  It's sad.

  • I'm here but obviously mostly on the other board.  It's just so much easier. Plus my other boards migrated over there.  I do read all the post daily though (as a good Mod should Wink ), I just don't reply as often.

    I'm here and still pretty new, but glad to have this board.  I have NO idea what other board people are talking about, I'm happy here.

    Little bit about me - Wife and I live in Minneapolis, and are expecting in March after about a year of trying.  Currently going through a home remodel (with her Dad and Uncle staying with us and doing the work) which is pretty stressful.  We both work a lot, and I'm limited in how much time I can spend posting/replying from work.  But I can get better!

    Glad you posted this.  Thank you!
