Do you all do intros on this board? I've been around since forever but somehow never noticed this board before.

Anyway, I am 44, married with one 6yo daughter in first grade. The husband and I both work full time. I'd love to join you all.

Welcome!

For anyone unfamiliar, the offical backstory on this board was The Bump impoloded, and we migrated to Then Comes Family, which subsequently imploded as well. Most of TCF went somewhere else, but this board decided to attempt to avoid the drama we were mostly insultated from and come here instead, and hopefully avoid a susbequent impolosion. So far so good.

Hi! H and I both work FT outside of the house (he commutes 1.5 hours one way, once you factor in travel to the train, the train ride, and a 20 minute walk), I teach, and we have 2 dogs, a 2.5 year old DD, and twin 6 month old boys.

Some WP specific acronyms we came up with randomly for fun:

DDOT- Doesn’t deserve own thread

TWERK- Things Working Parents Need to Know (Enquiring Minds Want to Know). With some poetic license on the acronym.

SOS- Significant Other Sound off AKA vents about your significant other. Not a dump them/ they are terrible thread more of a get it off my chest thread.

Thank you. I’m sorry for your loss as well.

We are in San Diego, too! We both grew up in east county and moved up north a little bit this summer to shorten our commutes.
