Stressed

Hi everyone,  I have no new weight loss news unfortunately, in fact I believe the last time I weighed in I was up a pound - 160.  Boo!  This upcoming weeks looks to be a little stressful.  Two of my sons have birthdays this week.  My youngest will be 17 on Friday and my second oldest will be 21 on Sunday (legal at last!).  I'm not sure what we are doing for the birthdays yet because their schedules are crazier than mine.  Tomorrow my husband and three of my sons are traveling up to Lehigh University to where the Philadelphia Eagles have their training camp - it's fan appreciation day and they are hoping for great pictures and autographs!  I have dog duty while they are gone.  Unfortunately, today I got a call from my brother (the one I never hear from) who told me he talked to our mother this morning and she sounds like she is doing worse.  So now I am packing the dogs in my son's Subaru (they are taking my van) and heading to West Virginia tomorrow morning to see what is going on with my mother.  I emailed my father and finally got him to admit that something is seriously wrong and she has fallen down twice in the house.  He said he was glad I was coming to help him decided what to do.  What?!  This is my take charge Dad, who has always been in control and never felt the need to ask anyone what to do.  I believe I will be taking my mother to the hospital tomorrow.    Hopefully the dogs will be OK at her house.  So much to think about.  I packed up a few BFC friendly things to get me through a few days and think I'm ready to go.  Wish me luck, and hopefully this will all turn out to be something simple.
