Subscribe to the Pit!

You may have noticed that im not like other bloggers who are able to write something daily.

I promised myself when i started this site that id only blog when a mildly interesting thought popped into my brain.

But here is a confession… im not actually an interesting person at all! Not in the slightest! Ive learnt to disguise it brilliantly – I have dreadlocks, I hang around an interesting partner & kids and I move house alot.

Im working on looking even more interesting in 2008 by buying a motor bike helmet and a guitar case as well as inexplcably breaking off in mid conversation, staring at the sky before silently nodding to myself much, much more than i did in 2007. Now if that’s not interesting I dont know what is!

Anyway my point is that im doing well to get an even slightly interesting thought or observation once every week or so. Then for that to turn into a post to this blog is even more unlikely.

So if you want to stay in touch with things when i do get it together and post something new, I’VE FINALLY SET UP A NEW OPTION WHERE YOU CAN SUBSCRIBE TO THE PARENTING PIT! Simply fill in your name and email address in the following fields:

When you subscribe you will get a short email when there is a new post or page to this site.

Not sure whether to take the plunge? Here’s a quote from a satisfied customer:

Five stars! Ive found posts to the parenting pit invaluable, inspirational and amazingly helpful. I would highly recommend everyone to subscribe now to keep in touch with this amazing resource… much better than visiting once and never finding it again which is what most of you probably do…
– Arun’s Mum

Actually i lie! My mum is not a subscriber. But I’d imagine that’s what she would say if she did subscribe… and approved of us unschooling our children… well even approved of us homeschooling… and was not extremely concerned by our parenting approach… and for that matter if i ever got the guts enough to tell her about this web site in the first place… hmmmm.

Well subscribe anyway :)

Anyway i better keep packing boxing… Im moving house again in two weeks (seriously).

    2) Do the kids want dreads?
    3) Do you have any phobias?
    4) If you could invite one person in the while world to have dinner with you, who would it be?
    5) Have you ever had a supernatural experience that went beyond explanation?
    6) What was the most interesting job you’ve had?
    7) If you could make the perfect school for your kids, what would it look like?
    8) Have you ever had a all-out food fight?
    9) Have you ever been on TV, in a magazine or in the paper?
    10) Have you seen Carl Sagan’s Cosmos?

    I’m a subscriber! :)

    I made the mistake of sending my mother-in-law a link to my blog when I first started it! What was I thinking!? She hasn’t mentioned it lately so hopefully she’s forgotten it by now…

    Hey guys,

    Glad to see you still have *dag* value Arun - I love the comment left by your Mum (well what you think she would have left IF she approved!).

    Your ability to have a laugh with yourself makes your writing so much more enjoyable to read. Good luck with the move, I keep up with your latest via the grapevine. - Karen D (Brisb)

    Arp… im hiding that question from anne otherwise we might have to move again.

    thanks for the comments shawna, colleen & karen and the others who have subscribed as well :)

    and Tammy… i just couldnt bring myself to answer your questions out loud, it just seemed too egotistical & self indulgent even for me.

    BUT i had to refer to your number 10 when you asked about Carl Sagan’s Cosmos. Ive never seen the tv version, but it is one of my favourite books of all time!! So funny you should mention it…
