Maybe I'll actually get some sewing & embroidery done instead of reading emails & collecting designs. I also decided I won't join any new yahoo groups just to get designs. Everyone advertises on multiple lists anyway so I can keep up with new designs on their sites

Hi fellow Alaskan--I agree with you about the yahoo groups, I've scaled mine down too. Kenai

I came to that same conclusion some time ago, and I'm sure glad I did!

Did that a while back and felt the choice was well worth getting the same old same old stuff every day.

WAY TO GO! There was a time that I had 92 yahoo groups - the digested email got really bad - so I stopped them all but a couple - the ones I have now - I don't get digested, because only the owner sends out specials - so I like that - I can still get updates on them and not feel like I am a slave to my email account - I want to send email out to friends and family - that is why I have an account - I love this group - have for years - it is interesting and you get to know the CUTE members, too.

I need to do the same thing....I have an aol mail account for groups and other stuff and a yahoo account for family and friends....I don't have time to read all the stuff and some groups require you to receive a bunch of ads, I could drop over half the groups and not miss them....I have dial-up and it's so slow (will go back to satellite when the house it paid off in two and a half years)I have to really pick wisely and feel like my time spent here is well worth it.....thanks maybe I will make time and try to do this, this week.

Good for you, some of those groups send out so much junk that you get bogged down.

congrats!!! I have thought about doing the same thing. Some of the groups are just mainly ad's I am on digest and they still take time to open just to delete them.
