Boy what a question! I try not to let my mind go there. Its hard to work these days (I'm fortunate that I'm in the type of business where I've planted seeds for 20 years and reaping them comes rather easy for me). I still can only last 4-5 hours before I have to bail out and go home for my ice bath. I sit on ice packs behind my thighs after about the first hour at my desk.

If I had to go get another job for some reason - i couldn't. I can't wear shoes and that is a BIG problem in the working world.

I always assumed I couldn't get SSI, but I really don't know anything about the rules and requirements.

This post reminds me how mad I get when I hear politicians complain about the 'takers'. Hell, give me a day without pain and I'll outwork every lazy, paid-off politician in the country.

Rant completed.
