About Me
This is me:
I like: the way my husband smells, my dogs silky ears, knitting things with expensive yarn, music, reading books, watching movies, chocolate and peanut butter, making lists, Tina Fey, Wii, underdogs, Macs, taking pictures of random things, growing stuff, eating stuff and talking about eating stuff I’ve grown.
I dislike: unemployment, infertility, people who say “first” in comments, people who type in all caps, Sarah Palin, Lil Wayne’s pants, long hair on dudes, bad spelling, sparse facial hair, taxes and mayonnaise.
This is B:
He is totally a keeper. And he smells good.
This is Igby:
He likes: Kelly Clarkson, Chris Matthews, laundry fresh out of the dryer, short walks, collars with flair, and licking.
He dislikes: Bill O’Riley, Gypsy, death metal, and flies.
This is Gypsy:
She likes: Chapstick, lotion, running in circles, chewing, limes, and anyone with a pulse.
She dislikes: Being confined to a leash, the current situation in Iran, the unsolved mystery of Juarez, Mexico, and pooping in the front yard.
And finally, after a long, long wait, this is Fiona:
She likes: eating, sleeping, pooping, toys that crinkle, crackling fires and Gypsy.
She dislikes: the car seat, stopping at red lights, waiting more than 30 seconds from the first pang of hunger to have that hunger satiated and Igby’s breath.
You better not be knocking Titus’s hair! Although he is not a man YET, but still a “dude”. Ur funny! I look forward to keeping up on your blog! X O
Les, I was thinking something more like this. Titus is divine!
So, news just came in from Oregon: you knitted a sock. As in, one. That’s impressive.
A sock. As in one. It took forever, and now I have to knit the other one. So I have one cold foot.
Not sure how B smells. Can testify to the mayonnaise, Igby and the flies and anyone with a heartbeat with Gypsy. It is a beautiful sock too. Back in Nam, knew a guy once that needed just one. Maybe you can knit a one sleeved sweater to go with.
Hello!
My name is Elisabeth, and I am an infertility / repeated pregnancy loss “veteran”. You can read a little bit about me and my experiences in my (not very updated) blog: drhousewife.blogspot.com . I am completing a PhD in Counseling Psychology, and my dissertation is focused upon the impact of infertility on marriage. I believe strongly that there is a need for better support services for men and women who are undergoing IF diagnosis and treatment, and my hope is that this study will aid in the development of such services.
I am contacting you after stumbling across your blog. I am recruiting participants for my study, and wanted to invite you and your husband to take part. All that would be involved would be the completion of an online survey, that would take approximately 20 minutes. All couples who complete the surveys will receive a voucher good for a pair of free movie tickets at a Regal Cinemas.
Please let me know if you are interested! I have included the criteria for participation below.
Best of luck to you!
