Panic

I chose that title because I was just watching CNBC.  Sharon Epperson always gives her report from the oil trading pit and she yells and sounds breathless.  It gives the impression of panic.  Something else that they did on that channel was, when the Greeks were rioting, they kept showing the clips of the worst part over and over.  It just gives a false impression that they are continuously rioting.  With all of the "protests" in the Mid East and the USA, it can make you feel panicky.  A lot of this is real and important for us to be aware of but keep in mind it does no good to worry.

  I have to keep that in mind.  Yesterday I was feeling very good.  I had dropped the dog off at the Vet's and drove Brooke to work.  It was sunny and old Flint town looked good.  I don't know why but I felt calm and in control.  Icy roads erased a little of that, but I mailed my ebay package and things were good. 

 The dog is in rough shape but sleeping most of the time.  Emma and Gabe are coming to Fenton tonight and I need to prepare for them.  That's not a big problem yet for some reason I feel nervous.  I'm supposed to be care-free.  That was my resolution.  So I'm not going to watch the news on television.  I'm going to get everything done on my list today.  I'm going into self hypnosis for short periods with the suggestion, "I am Care Free when I do what I can." 

I feel better already as I knew I would.  Writing this blog puts me in a better mood.  If it helps you in any way I am glad for that, but even if no one read it, I would still get the benefit.  You might want to try blogging some time.  Use a pseudonym if you want. 

Well, I have a few things to do.  Have a nice stress-free day.  If you would like to be a guest blogger here, I can add you to the list.  No one is on it yet.
