On the other hand, I've left some parties quickly because they seemed
dangerous or stupid, and more often than that I've stayed and regretted it.

All mailing lists are changeable, and few are idiot-proof.

I quit another list after staying on only a few days just last week. It's
okay to stick your toe in water and pull it back out. Life's short and some
posts are long. (Often mine. Sheesh!)

Sandra...I was so bummed when you quit that other list!!! I bitched
about it...The other poster said she was going to quit...She told
everyone "toodles"...But guess who's posting again, perky as ever?
UGH. Don't know how long I can make it on that one, either...but I
keep hangin in there for any new insight.

Well between people whose kids were in school and defending ADHD and talking
about politics, I wasn't having fun.

I'm on three other lists. That's way PLENTY for unschooling, isnt' it? <g>

It's getting hard to keep up with the lists that I am on. The
messages pile up and my computer is slow as a snail...it takes
forever to read everyones post. That's why I end up staying up till
3 or 4 am. Regardless, I get a lot of info from everyone on the
lists. As long as it isn't interfering with my kids time with me,
(which sometimes, i think it might be ) I guess there is no harm in
it. Sometimes, though, I find myself sitting here..."just a quick
check", I think...and then the baby comes and wants me. Sometimes I
push the envelope just trying to get through all of the
messages...checking them while she's eating, coloring, watching
Elmo... I'm seriously thinking about cutting myself back,
listwise...but it's hard to choose!!! It isn't hard to choose
between my children and my computer though. As long as that is true,
I think I'll be fine ;)
