New Year, New Ideas

What are some things that you all would like to see for the board this year?

How can we get the board moving again and get people back from FB (aside from an app...yeah yeah...)?

Beth and I can't keep the board moving on our own and we feel just like everyone else when we come here and there haven't been new posts in days and if there have been there haven't been any replies...we don't want to post either. I know everyone tries to keep it alive here and we do really appreciate it! So what can we ALL do to keep it up?

daily QOTD, this or thats or things like Monday Moans, Tuesday Thoughts, etc. At least those could be posted daily and that would be 1 or 2 threads going.

More general talk. Not every post has to be related to our kids. I don't think anyone ever needs to feel like something is "OT" let's just chat!

I think the general chat is a good idea. That way we can just talk about whatever we want. I know a lot of times I don't post topics because it doesn't have anything to do with our little ones.

Beth and I were actually talking about that recently! Not everything has to be about our babies. I'd say most of the posts in my other PR are NOT about our LO's.

I was trying to do more of these before the holidays and will get them going again. I'm working on getting the balance of life worked out again now that I'm working nearly every evening.

I love the "OT" posts

I love you gals as much as I love your wee ones

I will say, and admit, I am horrid at fluff posts. I have very limited time online, and very limited use of my arms and I don't like spending it on fluff posts (QOTD, ect).

Yeah I agree that posts don't ALWAYS have to be about our LO's. So I say if anything is on your mind then post! I get on JM from my phone and it doesn't bother me going through the net, its basically the same.

I feel bad that I haven't been able to post the last two weeks. I can't always log into JM from my Blackberry and that is all I had while I was on vacation.

But I am back and promise to do better.
