Headaches, anxiety and heart attacks, had nothing to do with Covid but everything to do with Trump’s constant attacking of everyone who looked at him cross-eyed. The cancer is still spreading.
I’ve almost stuck to my word. I did make a brief entry on my blog, but I’ve stayed off substack and other social media, with the notable exception of sms and IM. I’m feeling well, and I’m ready for another good night of sleep
Personally, the idea of distancing myself from any type of media, especially news about the whole Trump circus with MAGA sideshow for a couple of days sounds great. My mind gives a big sigh and pleads Yes!, but for some reason makes me a tad anxious and I'm not sure why. Has the news feed become my steroid, my juice ? because it DOES get my blood boiling and my heart rate up. Will I go through horrible bouts of withdrawals? Possibly, but I'm willing to suffer through it if I can just get my hand to loosen up its grip on the cell phone.
You hit the nail on the head. At my age blood pressure can't take the constant lies anymore...from all the MAGA traitors and election deniers. I can't stand the sound of Trump's voice. Someone joked that one bullet would be cheap. Unfortunately, get rid of him and more will follow. Just voting isn't going to finish it. We need to wake up to the fact that we are in a real war. I like Macca's hot fudge sundaes. Tonight it was a Tums.
This does not surprise me. I, my son and his wife, and my sister all recognize our chronic stress 😩 is due to 45. Reading trustworthy news sources is the only way to survive. TV news stays OFF in our homes.
I’m already rationing my intake. Feeling pretty good with the way things are moving especially after idiotic fake impeachment hearing backfired so wonderfully. Definitely keeping the focus on myself and loved ones. Good post, Diane.

Great!

Well-said!
I never answer the phone or text while I’m walking!

You know it’s bad when someone does, and their family says “At least he won’t have to go through November.”

True here, Jan, as well. The local news is a disaster time-waster.
Thanks for the inspiration! I will try this starting now.
