The Days Ahead

I just wanted to send out a short note in advance letting you know that while I strive to send out a recap everyday, I have an inkling I’m going to have a few disruptions in the coming days.

As you all know May 31st I had to cut out early because we took my dad into the emergency room as he was having some complications from his chemo. Here we are June 23rd and he’s still in the hospital. While I am always an optimist, I am a realist and I know what’s going on with him is not good. We’ve been waiting and hoping for a turn for the better and honestly we had it for a little bit this week but then yesterday we took another bad turn. Aside from that my mother is just worn out being at the hospital everyday with him, she’s a little old lady herself, so I have recently begun to take turns spending the night there replacing her. I get up early as it is and drive home and get back to work here but I won’t lie, it’s been tough, but that’s life.

I’ve tried my hardest to not let you all down to this point, but in all seriousness I’m getting worn out. Aside from the countless emails and dm’s I answer daily related to this place, when I send out my recaps everyday, I rush over to see him at the hospital. When that is over, I have his entire business and employees to deal with in the afternoon. That’s all without mentioning a family and kids at home. Truly, I’ve never had so much on my plate at once, ever.

So, there may be a day or couple days here in the near future where you don’t get a recap from me. I may have to rush out and I won’t have my computer. I really don’t know what is coming but I can sense it. I just wanted to let you know that in advance. I know you’re all used to getting my email by 1:30 EST everyday and I hope to be able to deliver. Whatever happens, worst case you may not get a recap from me but I will send you a link to the database that will remain open should I not be around.

Thanks for all your emails and well wishes, it has been a tough few weeks for me and hopefully there is a happy ending at some point in the near future.
