I have mentioned before that a steady diet of homeschooling blogs gives me indigestion.
I don’t mean “bloggers who homeschool,” of course — I enjoy plenty of those, because homeschooling parents and their kids are interesting people with interesting things to say. But I try to limit my exposure to blogs whose raison d’être is homeschooling, unless I am actually searching for new ideas and inspiration. Too many virtual new ideas and inspiration all the time —> a feeling that the real house, schoolroom, and maybe even the children around me are scruffy, worn, old, beat-up, uninspiring, and in need of replacement.
I got a link to Steady Mom some time ago, though, and I have found her posts to be a nice counterpoint: the “inspirational” homeschool blog that doesn’t make me feel uninspired by comparison. Today’s post seems like a nice introduction to her, so I am sending you over.
