I think I'm going to try to get a google reader together. Or something. It's time to step out of the old school age of having a box of "favorites" and help me organize a little better.
If you could so me a favor and leave a "I do!" comment to this post, I can start setting them up in one place.
I know I can go through all my old comments and then go through Mel's list and yada yada yada, but I need to start small.
So pretty please, with sugar on top, if you're a blogger, can you comment to this post so I can set up my feeds?
... Once (and still) Infertile, but still Schnarky as hell. This blog is dedicated to the daily ramblings from the mind of Nancy. It isn't about anything profound in the grand scheme of things, but it ~is~ about things in my life, schnarkiness always included. I have a second blog, listed in my profile, but the blogs will continue to remain separate.
"I'm aiming for heaven, but I'll probably wind up down in hell"
About Me
- nancy
- I am a 39 year old woman. I am the mother of two beautiful daughters and a handsome son. I am a career woman. As for my TTC world, it certainly doesn't seem like I am "infertile", but I fought for my pregnancies and my TTC/IF history is on the sidebar. I have two blogs, which are both listed in my profile. One focuses on my daily life - including IF, TTC, pregnancy, delivery and even some "children mentioned" posts. The second blog is ~soley~ posts directly about being the mother to my three children.

Yo yo yo! :)
I do!
I'm a new blogger, but i've been reading yours for some time.
I tried setting up Google reader and I also set us RSS feeds in my email. I liked the set up of google reader better but there was a delay that drove me nutz. My RSS feeds are instant. Either way it really is nice to get notified only when something new is posted.
I do!
I do ;-)
MEMEME! I'm a Blogger :)
Hi.
I'm a blogger -- but you know that :)
Thanks for peeking your head in to say hello -- I keep passing by the last post of your other blog "carebears are the devil" -- and it makes me laugh every time.
And you're right, you know, at day nine I'm not quite as calm about the tww. :)
xo
Pam
I am! :) ...and I'm a Braces Buncher.

I set up google reader recently. It's pretty great. You can also go to igoogle.com and set up a shortcut so the posts show there. Especially useful if the company you work for keeps track of websites you visit because it just comes up as google.com.
I have no idea what you just said.
I do! :)
I'm a blogger.
I'm a blogger!!
I actually have two blogs...the one this links to and the IF blog..but this one is the one I use more.

Yes Maam...
oops, I mean "I Do" believe I dont know what your talking about.
I do! I love Google Reader but bleu is right, it's a little slow updating, but 10 minutes slow, not 2 hours slow. And thank you for the pretty card you sent. There is something tremendously wonderful about something as small as a note in the mail.
i do...are we married now?
I'm warning you - Google reader is evil. I love it, but it is.
I've got two blogs under my profile, one for me and one for Lex.

You know I am.
Right here!
