Staying in the Know

By now, I think we have established that I am a mom with limited time, right? Well, add to that the fact that we don't have live TV in our house (well not local channels anyway), and you can see how my exposure to current events is limited.

Sure I could listen to the radio (which I do), or follow news anchors and stations on social (again, I do) but there is also another way I keep up.

I am a Skimmer. What is The Skimm? It is a daily news email that gives you a look at the hottest topics from the day before. (You can sign up here.)

Honestly, it is about the only way I stay updated on real life events. Ask me about British PM May or what is going on in the Philippines and I could tell you. It is really nice to be able to stay updated on current events and contribute to conversations with others.

They also have a whole section dedicated to healthcare and being part of that conversation.

Now I have no excuse to not know what is going on in this big ol' world of ours. What about you? How do you stay up-to-date with the goings on around you?
