Today we had a dramatic drop in the stock market. They said it's the worse since 2008.

They said it was due to Japan,and England adjusting there currency. The fear that the news is generating is one thing after another.

I hear fear,fear,fear,fear There is so much hype that it's really getting on my nerves.

Oh gosh. I just missed the 6:30 NBC News. I could have gotten the scoop in 10 minutes. BF

Just remember that when it drops it comes back at a later time.

Its okay, we will get it back.

They have to say they don't like what is going on.

This constant bad news is driving me nuts. They say that we have a lesser credit rating then we've had in over 70 years I think.

They keep saying things about social security,and this gravely concerns me.

I am loaded with anxiety. When I get a little relief, I hear things while changing channels on TV. BF

Dear Friend,

The programs on tv are not trying to convey information to you.
The point of their existence is to get you to keep watching so that they can sell more ads.

Try to keep their nonsense into perspective.

Take care of yourself.

It is said,according to the news,that we have a AA+ credit rating now,instead of a AAA credit rating on Friday.

I don't know what this is going to do to our economy. I keep hearing bad news. No one gives good news anymore.

This really depressed me over the weekend. I'm having a hard time. I'm worried about the future.

I wish that I could stop worrying about this subject. I live alone,so there's no one to bring me out of this dread that I feal. BF

Great places, bizi. Yeah, I'm staying away from the news, these days. Not a darn thing I can do about it. Hope to get back to work Wed & do my part to get us back on track! Thanks for the cheer-up!

Yes, Jude,
That is one way to look at it.
By working and spending and traveling, you are helping the economy move forward.
You have lots of positive energy.

Well, I'm spending as little as possible. Cancelled the travel plans. But when I feel up to it I volunteer at the SPCA & visit the oldest dogs & cats up for adoption. They get passed over a lot & get depressed, so I try to cheer them up. Doesn't help the economy but makes me feel worth something. Better than watching the news!
