Morning Routine Out the Window: Proud to be Clueless

Here was my morning news round-up before even putting my feet on the floor. From bedside perch, I'd call out, "Hey, Google, play 'NPR News Update." (Could call out to Alexa, but she doesn't live here.) When I was finished, I went to "CNN 5 Things to Know," then "AP Radio News Update" and finally New York Times "The Daily." I wanted to be sure I was au courant with what was happening in the world, even if shallowly, in the know.

Now? I tune into NPR, and that's it

The news is all so disturbing. Every one of these words triggers anxiety: Gaza, Hezbollah, Israel, Lebanon, Iran, Strait of Hormuz, Trump and his lovely wife Melania, the Epstein files, and this is just top of the news. Too much!

I feel crazzzzzed even telling you this. (Breath deep, Bonni.)
