Hi MaryAnn,
I unsubscribed from the list during the week I was away. When I got
home, I realized that I wa going to be SO busy with getting ready for
school that I did not have time for the list. I was unsubscribed for 3
weeks and had no problem resubscribing. It was scary to "cut the cord",
so to speak, but I would do it again, as I had no trouble getting back
in. You could ask for a few people to forward to you a few types of
juicy topic messages that you are interested in while you are away.
While I was away, I asked a few list friends to forward "back to school
ideas" and several other threads I was following while I was away. I'd
be happy to do the same for you!
