This morning I was listening to GMA radio in my car and they were discussing the presidential speech from Tuesday night. It was the “bite that bloated the cow for me”, the “straw that broke the camels back,” so to speak. Yes, it literally drove me over the edge. Maybe I was tired, stressed, and just fed up in general, but I had to ask myself a few questions:
Is anyone else getting sick of hearing about the countries dire situation, (reality actually)??? Well, I am sick of it. Yes, the country is screwed right now, but the media really needs to let up. I think there is a tactic behind all this fear they are instilling in the public. They are blowing this “recession” completely out of the water with their constant talk about the public needing to be fearful. No wonder people are killing their entire families in an attempt to “save” them from what the media has deemed their absolute and certain future…..I mean crap every time I turn on the TV or radio I want to chug a bottle of Jack and scarf ten boxes of Little Debbie’s. This situation we are in right now is minimal to say the least, in comparison to say the Depression. I am not saying we should ignore what is happening, but isn’t there something to be said about the power of positive thinking?? How can we the American people visualize this getting better when every time we set a conscious foot on the floor we want to rendezvous with Jack and Debbie because the TV is saying we are loosing our A_ _es? Yes, I said conscious because about the only time I feel good these days is when I am asleep… (This might be because I have small humans at my house, but I am using this as my excuse today).
This could one of the great times in our lives when we realize we needed to make a change and actually do it. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a huge change, as long as it helps you in your life….. (Hint, hint COUPONS!!) You know the saying or song, “Hindsight is 20/20, but I am nearly going blind….” Well American done went blind and is now hoping for a corneal transplant. The public however, needs to try and see the light for her………………………
