It was a good post, Johny. It's good to hear how others are coping.
We rarely watch any TV, like maybe an hour or two every couple of months. One reason for that is due to location and topography, we're limited to 7 terrestrial direct stations. The only time we listen to the radio is when we're driving somewhere long distance.
I have noticed that my wife is listening to more religious music from her Iphone, usually Buddhist chants, so i don't understand the details, but I get the concept.
We haven't been particularly anxious, and we've been sleeping well. Our attitude is "Que sera, sera." I can't change things external to my immediate area, so I accept that. We do our daily chores and other projects, which keeps us occupied. Amateur radio is one of my diversions, and it's entertaining to listen to others around the world. Occasionally, I listen to the scanner, and that's been entertaining too, as there are locals who use a FRS channel as their intercom, while not realizing others can be overhearing their conversations. No PERSEC!
I've got a good friend that has become overwhelmed by recent events. He hasn't been getting much sleep as he obsesses over world events. The dude needs to get some hobbies and a woman.
Don't get stressed over the things you cannot change. It does seem that everything is politicized. However, we visited with neighbors yesterday and nothing political was mentioned, it was refreshing.
