Why this in’t a home ed blog.
Despite the ballet reprieve I’m in a shitty mood; very, very irritated. (BTW where is my period??? I feel like I’ve had PMS for the last 6 weeks).
This blog has bits of my life, things that I want to remember or feel like saying at a given moment in time. Home edding isn’t my life.
There are many people who I like (adore 
) & respect who HE but I don’t (have never) buy into the HE community idea and may I be struck down if I ever say I HE because I cosleep, breastfeed & use cloth nappies (WTF does that have to do with my children’s education?), or whatever else seems to ‘naturally’ (blerch) lead to HE. I’m not interested in whether people do those things or not - as Claudia gets older it becomes ever more apparent that most things don’t make that much difference.
As far as the educating bit goes - P1’s disclaimer sums it up:
“I am putting stuff in this blog that I think you will be interested in, from an HE POV, and things of which it’s useful for me to keep track. It is not supposed to be everything ‘educational’ that my children do, it’s certainly not going to contain every question they ask or conversation we have, and it does not in any way imply that I value the aspects of their learning which I blog any more highly than those I don’t. ”
Of course I don’t write things that will be of any interest to anyone except me & sometimes Si
Nuff said now where’s my knitting? (Which I don’t blog about either in a probably futile attempt at maintaining some anonymity, the interweb is full of nutters you see).
ETA: I’ve just been thinking about why I’m so annoyed & I sense a blog move coming. I get bored of things too quickly.
