Health and frugality are my two favorite topics and I keep trying to figure out a way to make a living focusing on either of these.

I can fill in the blanks. Another car bombing in war-torn country X, no end in site, arguing about this, that and another bill.. . People were surprised when I didn't watch the earthquake coverage from Haiti--hello, people. I know about earthquakes, I know about Haiti, hence, I can see, it's a sad state of affairs, no need to see the bodies on TV after dinner (I think there are more bodies on TV here in France). The important thing is to do what you can to make things better. Watching depressing and morbid news only makes you depressed, tired and cynical. Good for you.

I can totally relate. We've been making a conscious effort to reduce our media consumption around here. The kids haven't watched any tv in months, which means the tv doesn't come on at 6:00 news time any more, and the 11:00 news is past my bed time. :) The funny thing is, I thought I'd miss it but I really don't! The world keeps on spinning, and things will happen whether I know about them or not. Like you, I feel like we make pretty conscious choices, and don't need media input for that. And if there's something specific I want to know about, there's always Google. :) On another topic, I'd love to know where you import your Canadian hemp from!! I didn't even know we had hemp up here. :) See, I really am living under a rock!!! Take care, Alissa Hey Frugal Babe!

I really feel sorry for the people affected, but I couldn't take it anymore! There was nothing that I could do to help it. I just stopped reading it. So, I get what you are saying. I just can't read sad depressing stuff! Happy, dreamy, positive stuff - can do all day! ;) There was one downright depressing blog I read – it was about a social tragedy.

Granted its usually at nap or bed time but hubby needs attention too. Thanks for the reminder.

I think it just creates depression. I used to check doomer blogs and after awhile I decided that it was driving me crazy, so I better stop! :) I am SO flattered you included me!! <3
