Unmotivated

Posted on Feb 04, 2009 under Blogging, Carter, Pictures, Skye | 1 Comment

Unmotivated to do any homeschooling. I think we are turning into unschoolers. It really feels like we are doing double when I plan something. Last week unplanned we did, science, math, phys ed, literature, and more. We truly are learning all the time. I guess I’m in a transition time. Trying to figure out just what we are doing….
Unmotivated to take pictures. I think my pictures look like crap. Seriously. I need a class or something.
Unmotivated to blog. Just feel like we are so busy, but nothing worth note worthy.
Plus, facebooks is eating my time and energy.

I put my flickr photos back public. I think my blog will be password free again soon.

Skye dresses herself one day. Leggings, dress and fluffly tutu ;)
She dresses herself!

Carter set the dollhouse up by himself. Love the family bed and the unique way he thought about the space.

To share or not to share…

well, that is the question.

I have gone back and forth a million times about if I should make my blog and flickr pictures private or just let them out there for anyone to see.
Well, you can guess that I decided. And here is why.

I can’t control what other people do. I want to be able to share our adventures with family and friends who are interested in learning about them. For a long time I only blogged and posted pictures on a site that was viewable by those using that site. Well, I moved on…

Plus, here is a major bonus. With the flickr pro account I can track how many times a picture is being viewed. I pretty much know who reads my blog and how often they are looking at it thanks to Google Analytics. I can do the same with flickr. So if a picture of Skye in a bathing suit is being viewed a few too many times I will delete the picture. I want to add that this has NEVER happened.

I’m also very conscience of not posting pictures of other peoples children unless they know I’m posting them or they post pictures of their kids themselves.

So, that is my thoughts. What do YOU think?
