It Makes a Difference to the Sheep

I have obviously been AWOL from the blogosphere for quite some time. Have been busy moving, teaching summer school, summering in Maine, and other assorted activities. It has been worthwhile to take a step back and ask whether the time and energy devoted to blogging is worth it. On the one hand, it has been a fascinating foray into a new information medium; I have learned much and enjoyed much. On the other hand, it does take a lot of time, time that could be spent playing with my kids, finishing my book, reading or sleeping. So, I'll continue to mull over whether to jump back in to the fray or stay away.
