What a relief, I was approved for ssd

By Nan Thursday, December 16, 2010

Hooray, I was approved to receive my social security disability benefits. I applied on-line on September 1 and got the call to come down and fill out the ending paperwork. What a relief, I have been through so much this year and this being at the head of all the stress. The hurry up and wait of it all. But I am so glad now and right here at Christmas too. What a great gift! My family had to give up some of their priviledges since I quit work in July and I have felt pretty bad about it, I have worked since I was 12. Its hard to stop or to be made to stop. My family has been so very supportive, I am so very proud of them and thankful. This is going to make the new year so much more enjoyable. I was ready for the new year and the possibility of getting on with a new life and this was a big part of being able to do it with alot less stress. Thank all of you for your support and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Exercise, why does it have to be so hard?

Thanks V, I am so ready to start getting some kind of life together. After reading Lene's 10 list for the year it made me more anxious to get my life on a path. I thrive on routine and of course its better for my overall health to stay on a routine. Not to say a little chaos isn't good for the soul here and there but I've had the lions share this year. My husbands laid up right now with a hurt foot and  he is having a hernia repaired today so It will be good to get those things healed this last month of the year and we'll both be able to start fresh in January. It just seemed every time I tried to get something going this year the chaos insued, very frustrating.

I agree w/you, Nan. I think we all find comfort in some degree of routine.  Not that a little spontaneity isn't good every now and then. Laughing

 

I think you have had your share of chaos for a while. Sometimes just keeping doctors appointments is a disruption when you have so many of them.

 

Maybe now you can concentrate on taking care of you.

 

Peace,

V
