Kind of tough today
 
and bittersweet......all last night and all day today my dad who is in hospice at home with us was hallucinating and trying to get up and walk by himself - got away with it once and fell, bumping his head :( This all the result of a new med they had put him on..well that stopped immediately this morning and after drinking TONS of water forced on him today - tonight he is sleeping peacefully (at least at the moment - crossing fingers). BUT we also had a successful sale on our house in CA which has been listed since May 1st - WOOHOO!!! Sooooo, with both things going on my AV was saying after a night like last night and a day like today you could really use a drink - BUT I didn't - hubby had one and I had my cranberry/ginger ale. I did break up with TV viewing/sitting around time a little early though and came up to play my fave video game and my mind instantly cleared of any thoughts of a drink. WHEW!!!:herewego
