I just want to take a moment and tell all of you who are struggling and off work and the family stress from this Calm down.

And why do i say this? Simple As a medium size business owner who pushed himself so hard and stressed out 8 years back! So what happened to me?

I ended up in Naples Community Hospital Cardio Ward laying on a table and wondering if i would ever see my kids again, who would take care of my parents, who would get the kdis thru college. You get the point

I am telling you all this as a survivor of stress! Stress Kills and during these times do what i am doing! Focus on your health - Its free. Help those who are having problems cooping with these times - Its free! Look around the house and finish a project that you started and have not finished. Turn off the dang TV!

I played Monopoly last night with my two teanagers, Was a blast. No Tv No PHones -

I currently am losing about 8-15k a week in my business, I will survive this - But one thing for sure I will not let the stress of it Kill me! Been there got a break once, No reason to chance it again

These are the facts

Waking a sleeping Giant.....
The reports are that the truckers are getting supplies to the stores.
People are stocking the shelves all night and letting old people shop first.
Carnival Cruise line told Trump “We can match those big Navy Hospital ships with some fully staffed cruise ships”
GM said hold our cars and watch this; we can make those ventilators where we were making cars starting next week.
Women and children are making homemade masks and handing out Snacks to truckers.
Restaurants and schools said, We’ve got kitchens and staff; we can feed kids.”
Churches are holding on-line services and taking care of their members and community.
NBA basketball players said, “Hold our basketballs while we write checks to pay the arena staff.”
Construction companies said, “Here are some masks for the medical staff and doctors”.
Breweries are making sanitizer out of the left-over ingredients.
We thought we couldn’t live without Baseball, NASCAR, NBA or going to the beach, restaurants or a bar. Instead, we’re trying to keep those businesses open by ordering take-out.

What communist China didn't count on was America saying "Hey, hold my beer and watch this."

I think a Japanese Admiral in the middle of the Pacific said it best in 1941, "I think we have awakened a sleeping giant."

Give us a few more weeks (maybe months) and we will be doing much better! Look at your community and the activities going on!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
