And, by the way, it’s not a “pity me” type of story.  It’s just telling like it is.  My aim was and is to give a glimpse of what it’s like… to spread a little understanding for people who are noticeably different.  And to have something to relate to for those who were born like me.

Anyway, I decided to use WordPress 2.7 for it (very nice upgrade!).  It won’t be a blog though, it’ll just be a static site.  I’ll blog about cleft related things here with cleft tags (cleft lip & cleft palate) and add a link from the new BtbC site to here, and also talk about them on my Cleft Club Radio podcast… whenever I get time to get that up and going again.

When I originally wrote that story, it was over 10 years ago.  I think I was still a newlywed.  And… well, it was time for me to update it… having another kid and getting divorced and such .

I also needed to move it from my Tripod site.  I’ve been using a webhost for a while now, but with everything that was going on, I never got around to focusing on re-writing my story.  So now I am, and I feel pretty good about it.

Not much really needs to be redone. My outlook on life remains, I think, the same.  But I feel like I should re-write the whole thing.    But instead of it being from a 20-something it’s now from a 30-something.

And maybe one day I will finish other posts that I have started for this blog .
