Now this is the way I love to laugh, reminds me of the time ... no I can't remember what was so funny but I spent 15 minutes laughing ... anyway here 'tis.
Update 11/10/06: Cricket reminded me what I had been laughing about - and it still cracks me up. I asked Cricket to do something - he said 'in a minute, I've just got to...' and when I turn around to see what is so urgent to him - he is tapping at a keyboard (?entering data ?programming ?communicating ?setting off a program?)...
... - which is not actually hooked up to anything ...
... - the urgent matter was a part of some imagination - a game or role play
ROTFLMAO
It just tickled my funny bone. Still cracks me up.
"Everything Counts" is a motto about learning in unschooling families. Here is some of the everything for "Cricket", "Fish" and I ("Mum").

Unschooling workbook - getting to unschooling
There's a funny thing about my experience of Sandra's lists (recently summarised on AlwaysLearning that she might appreciate. I read them, think they're great, decide yeah I might do some of those, I save them, print them, link to them, try to memorise them, then I get off the computer, find the boys heavily engaged in whatever they're into that day, and the mood passes.
What I have learned is that whenever possible I share with the boys what I'm into, appreciate what the boys are into, appreciate what our friends and family are into, invest my attention into positive relationships, and enjoy life.
If I have to (or feel inclined to) seek out stimulating ideas, Sandra's lists are my first places to look:

WOW and Darkheart
Today I played WOW and I did a battleground where you have to capture a blacksmith, a farm, a lumber mill, a mine, and a stable, and by holding the bases to get resources the teams need to get resources up to 2000 to win.
My friend Darkheart is staying with me for 8 days
