No haven't slipped

Hi everyone, I got an email today asking if I had slipped up and encouraging me to not give up if I had slipped up. Thank you for caring enough to send the email I appreciated it.

I have been extremely busy and very stressed the last couple of days. I have my 90 year old Dad living with us and he has been having some health problems that I have had to deal with. His BP really dropped over the weekend so have been trying to keep him out of the hospital and caring for him at home. He is doing some better this evening. It is probably a change in medication that has caused the BP problem so we are adjusting and trying different things. So we will see how it goes. As with most people that don't feel well you aren't seeing the best side of them plus with the aged illness' and changes also affect them mentally with confusion, agitation etc.

My husband has a business that is operated out of our home. He does airport transportation and this is the start of his season. People coming to AZ from colder areas for the winter. I answer the phones and schedule the arrivals/departures for him occassionally I will also take someone to the airport or pick them up from the airport. Today the phone rang 35 times for scheduling. Which would not be a big deal except for the problems going on with my Dad.

Well didn't mean to rant on here about my problems. Just wanted to say that I survived it and it was helpful that I had read so many posting here at the ex community that helped me even though I haven't been able to log on.

Take care everyone and remember it is one day at a time and often one minute at a time. It is getting easier with time and every hard day makes the next time easier.
