Solution

I think that I've decided what I'm going to do with respect to the whole blogging thing. I don't really belong in the IF sphere anymore and I'm a little uncomfortable posting pictures of my kids in the public domain.

Therefore, when I have some time (hopefully within the next week or two) I will create a new blog that will be viewable only to people with permission (people will have to log in so I expect there will not be many people who will follow me).

I'm not simply going to password protect this blog as I *MAY* invite my parents and possibly a couple of friends to look at the new site and I don't really want them to read through all my posts from the past couple of years. I may be deulsional even thinking that they might want to read all of my drivel but whatever.

So that leads me to the proviso for obtaining the password for the new blog (whenever it is created). You will have to call me by my real name and you will have to ensure that you make no mention whatsoever of my alter ego - DinoD.

You may also not want to follow me to my new site as there will be little if any mention of SIF and recurrent miscarriage. There will be (most likely) more pictures of my family even possibly a picture of two of myself. I will likely whine about my lack of sleep and my job (which I'll be returning to in just over a year). There will be a lot of talk of the mundane such as the landscaping work we are currently having done (ref. below picture).

So, what do you think?
