CBS Sunday morning- The announcement this week the "Great Recession" is officially over came as quite a surprise to the millions of Americans who are either out of work or just struggling to make ends meet. While the recession may technically be over, the after-shocks of high unemployment, depressed home values and debt are likely to reverberate through the economy for years to come. Times have changed, possibly forever, and we're living with a new economic reality many economists are starting to refer to as "The New Normal."

1. I have walked away from Sunday morning political shows.

NBC's ''Meet the Press''- Mike Pence is a deal breaker - won't watch him.

CBS' ''Face the Nation'' - Marco Rubio, Sal Russo, Chief Strategist, Tea Party Express - They MUST be kidding!

ABC's ''This Week'' With Christiane Amanpour" - Sen. Mitch McConnell - I've seen my fill of this clown.

CNN's ''State of the Union''- Sen. Joe Lieberman, Rep. Marsha Blackburn - There's just nothing left to say.

There was a time not so long ago, when I watched and/or recorded every one of these programs. I don't turn them on anymore unless there's a compelling reason to do so. This Sunday is another one without any compelling reason. YAY I can sleep late again!

If political junkies like me stop watching MTP and FTN, their ratings must be seriously sagging. Personally, I don't think I can watch MTP ever again with David Gregory on there. He insults my intelligence every time he opens his mouth.
