It is important to know what's happening, especially if there is help needed that we can give; but there is enough intake of that at a certain point for anyone's health.Dave Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11417833347179495042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661741523263753420.post-10855253216705026422011-03-14T16:56:27.099-07:002011-03-14T16:56:27.099-07:00Bobbie Jo -- I watch a fair amount of TV.

As for the dark, well, one of the first things I did when I got into this house was take down the blinds! I have to have a lot of light coming in and in this place there isn't enough. Where I used to live, I had a prow that was 21' up to the top beam and 14 large windows that let in a lot of light. I should not have sold that house. (I will not go there.) <br /><br />I have been a morning person and I used to get up at 5:00am, but since that dang PE, I have been getting up later; 7 or so. With the time change it is almost 8.<br /><br />As for the news and all that, I get mine from the internet and the Eruptions blog. That has been enough for me and at least I know what is going on. The nice thing about the internet is you can read the stories you want and leave the rest. When I do watch TV, it is on some kind of scientific stuff.<br /><br />Have a lot of fun tonight!Bobbie Jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661741523263753420.post-78384648369641926492011-03-14T15:26:12.351-07:002011-03-14T15:26:12.351-07:00Raven -- for reasons unknown, your comment went in...Raven -- for reasons unknown, your comment went into the spam folder... so sorry! :-( Glad I discovered that.

But that was it - a daily update of about 2-3 minutes for me is enough. <br /><br />Tragedies like these are reminders for me to value what I do have, right now, be appreciative of family and friends but on the other hand, the stark reality is that for everyone else not affected, normal life carries on, with its own set of problems.<br /><br />And to be very honest, I am adament in wanting to avoid the period that will come in the news footage, when the actual event has become old news, and to keep viewers glued, the media starts using the doom prophets, the "hidden" meanings etc. <br /><br />I have seen it happen in the 9/11 tragedy, the tsunami in Thailand etc - and it angers me beyond words, for it cheapens and degrades the memories of those who did die, and shows no respect for those who are left behind with the aftermath of personal loss.<br /><br />Eh..I think I am ranting a bit here, but you are right Erica, I will rather put on some music, maybe not clean out closets (GRIN), but use my time constructively. If anything, tragedies like this, shows how precious time is.Raven Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12845667798600423591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661741523263753420.post-13889443868509594892011-03-13T23:36:42.702-07:002011-03-13T23:36:42.702-07:00Hi Erica,

I don't like Daylight Savings Time either for many of the reasons you have already cited. <br /><br />As for Japan, I morn for the dead and for those who suffered losses, but I have watched very little news footage. There's really very little I can do for Japan and its people. I've already seen enough disaster video over the years to last me a life time.

Yes, we should at least have a basic idea of what's going on, but immersing yourself, suddenly remembering a friend of a friend of a distant enemy that *might* live where this thing occurred, freaking yourself out about it all? I have enough anxiety without taking all of that in!

When it gets dark at 5, that leaves a lot of hours unproductive. I like summer, when it gets dark by nine, you're outside in shorts and running errands, hanging out, doing stuff.
