Today was AWFUL!!!

Today was just plain AWFUL!! I own a electrical company for the past 5 years and I just don't think I can do it any longer. It is too stressful!! Too make a long story short...the past 3 months were so slow so of course things get behind and now I am struggling to find money and just stay a float and wondering if it is all worth it. The thing about it is this is a family business, so my day, my husband, my brother and cousin we all work together and I feel like I am failing everyone!! It always seems that you get one part of your life going in the right direction and another screws up. We have worked so hard and now it seems for what... I was so upset today that I didn't eat but about 1 ounce of chicken, 1/2 protein bar and 8 oz of fluid...if I ate anything else I knew I would What to do-What to do!!!

***Big Hugs*** Sorry to hear you are having difficulties with your business. I wish I knew how to advise you, but I am not much of a business person beyond our family finances. I hope you are able to find a solution soon. I can't even imagine the stress you are under. Susan

Hey Angela, I am so sorry about the things you have had to go through. I think it will get though.. Just hang in there. Make sure you drink and eat.. Maybe go take a nice long that always helps me.. Remember we are all here for you! Luvs and Hugs Tiff

WOW I have just no advice to give at all. But wanted to send **BIG HUGS** to you. I cant imagine the stress you are under. Don't let it effect you and your intakes though. Don't want to be sick on top of being stressed ok!! *huggles* Felicia

Wow hun, that does sound like an awful day! But tomorrow is a new day, strive to get your eating back on track tomorrow. You cant control whats going on with the business right now but you can control what you put in your mouth. Having that control on that part of your life will keep you balanced and make things come into focus a little. The last thing you need is to wind up back in the hospital from dehydration or super malnutrition. Hang in there it will get better. :wub:

i hope things are brighter for you tomorrow. don't let the stress effect your accomplishments... you know you need the protein and the fluids. (easier said then done, i know). anyway, try to take care of you, and then you can take care of the business. it's sort of like on an airplane when they tell you that if you are traveling with children to put your oxygen mask on first so that you will be able to help the child. take care of you, patricia

Hey Patricia, That was a great analogy! It is so important to take care of yourself first or what good are you to anyone else. I hope everyone takes this to heart!! Tiff

Aw, Angela...I wish that I had some advice to give to you. It does sound like an aweful day. Tomorrow is a new day and I hope you feel better. Huge Hugs.... Tabby

It is 1:53 am on Wednesday morning and of course I can't sleep. Wonder why? Still trying to think of different things to do and it is driving me Like you said today is another day and I have my checkup today so things should look up some. Thank you guys for all the support and it is great to have people just to vent to. It helps trust me. I will concentrate on getting more in today and that will be goal for today. Of course I can't eat until after the appointment but I will afterwards. I will keep you updated. Lots of hugs to you!!

Why are you sholdering all of the responsibility for the company alone? I think you need to pull your resources together so that you can work together. Since this is a family business, encourage the family to participate actively in in the decision making process of the business. You can't do this alone. Aime
