subj: We are parents to twins vol2.
+----------------------------------------------------------------
This gopher area is basically a log about my experience being a
parent with twins. Its the second volume "New parent--twins" as
reference in the may gopher menu.
Most people will find these logs very dull, but it helps me deal
with being a newish parent to our children, and its fun for me
to write a few things if I have time during the week.
I'm what I and others might call a computer person.
+--------------------------------
By day my profession is:
+--------------------------------
Husband
Father
Computer person
+--------------------------------
As a computer person it also gives me a chance to interact with
computing systems in the way I like using my editor of choice.
I'm not a "writer", as I said I'm a computer person. There are
far better writers out in gopher-space than myself. However for
me action of writing these documents helps keep be connected to
computers, and the possibility I'll have documented some parts
of my child's life, and how I felt about specific days at the
time.
After printing ~88 documents from "New parent--twins" comprising
about 8970 lines of text, I've decided to create a second
volume.
+----------------------------------------------------------------
I apologize if I've written the same thing in multiple files. I
don't remember everything I write, and writing things in
separate logs makes duplication easy since each day is almost a
repeat of the day before. Although I do realize different things
are happening as my focus moves from things I've become better
at to things I've discovered with our children.
