We are a poly couple in Idaho saying Hi to all..

Vicki asked, in another thread, whether people were away on the
weekend. I didn't want to answer in that thread, but it did motivate
me to go on a bit about our fun Colorado summer.

My partner and I just got back from a teaser backpack trip in the
Comanche Peak Wilderness. We hiked about 4 miles in to an area (that I
won't reveal publicly) that was so secluded that we didn't see a
single human soul the whole time we were there. Just inside a large
stand of lodgepole pines and just across a creek (complete with beaver
dam) from hundreds of acres of grassy meadow, all surrounded by dark
brown peaks with a decent amount of remaining snow cover. It was
nearly 100 F in Denver when we left and a flawless 75 F when we
arrived where we set up camp.

Talk about a way to decompress from the week.

HI
WE ARE POLY COUPLE AND GOING BACK FROM HOUSTON TO PHOENIX AZ AGAIN....
TRAVELING IN OUR BUS TOWING OUR AUTO.. ANYONE NEEDING A RIDE OR
WANTING TO TRAVEL LET US KNOW .. LEAVING 1ST WEEK IN AUGUST

We're having a pretty good time being new parents. The teenager is a
normal, annoying teenager, but in an utterly benign way. She gets along
really well with everyone in the family, helps out whenever we ask (and
often without being asked), and has been earning some money of her own
doing housework for friends and family.

We haven't hit the point yet where school starts and I have to start
making sure she wakes up and goes, but right now, things are good. She's
been here a month and a week, and it's going even better than expected.

Oh, and I talked to the landlady about her, and she (the landlady)
suggested that we might be able to rent a room from the folks upstairs.
They have a bedroom-sized room with a separate entrance that they've
been using as a storeroom, and it's steps from our front door, so that
would be *great* -- room for the teenager without anyone's having to move.

ObPoly: She likes both my partners, and teases them both mercilessly

lisa c and i are discussing whether or not alt.polyamory has thrown up
and stopped delivering messages. yes, i realize this is wildly
technically inaccurate. but we have different news hosts, so now i post
this and see if she sees it.

yes, i said you could skip this. i hope you didn't think i was kidding.

betsy.

somebody passed that around at least a week ago, though not here.)

Hi all!

So, after chairing APC16 and swearing that I was going to take a year
off of volunteering at an APC, and while I was full of happy APC16
disney chemicals, I decided to take on programming.

I'll be skimming the vast quantity of alt.poly topics to see if there
are any good launching points, but I'd love to hear from you.

A few topics that I'd gleaned from some conversations (titles to be
sparklified in time):

Levels of Contact
-what do you need from your partners
-how often, when, where?
-local vs. semi-local vs. LDRs

Personality Types (Myers-Briggs) and Poly
-interacting with other types
-ways to work around differences

Poly Households - How to make it a reality?
-we talked about our dream poly households a bit in Las Vegas,
now let's talk about the reality of poly households, issues - known or
perceived.

I was looking for an anniversary card today and I was struck, as I
always am, but how much of an alien that exercise always makes me feel.
I did eventually find a card that I liked, although I had to look under
"love" rather than "anniversary".

It seems like all of the "anniversary" cards are variants of:

Woman: Our relationship is an exercise in give and take.
Man: You give the orders and I take them!

...or something similarly curmudgeonly in which it's implied that the
people involved have a slightly or significantly adversarial position
with reference to each other.

One card (filed under "love" rather than "anniversary") was all white
with a black rectangle on it. In that rectangle was depicted a smaller
white card with a heart on it. It was drawn in a cute style, so I
picked it up to see what they text said, hoping to find something cute
but lighthearted and fun. Instead, in a very plain typeface (not
Helvetica or Arial, but some other simplified sans-serif) it said: "blah
blah blah" and when you opened it, inside it said in the same typeface,
"here's your card". That's it.
