Not to mention once you are home things need to be done there as well. Having a quilting corp where it's all non profit and works around your schedule doesn't mean one can work a full time or part time job. That is the type of job that can work around your schedule if need be and from home. Some day's one may be able to get up and go to work and other times they can't, not to mention if you are in the process of trying to get SSDI. For those who can still work, congrats and keep on trucking man. But for those of us who stay at home we aren't just sitting around all day. We still have houses and things to keep up just like before. Only now, the time is more flexible. JMHO

Wow! Where did that come from? If you really think that is what I was saying, then you have completely and totally missed the point of my posts.
I am not even going to try to explain all of the points that you missed but I will elaborate on the quilt corp for Vonn's benefit, which was the reason behind the effort to help.
I am sure you already know this since you have been filled in on the fine intricasies of Social Security Disability Benefits law but an ALJ might just look at an ability to start up a corporation (profit or otherwise) as an ability to engage in
substantial gainful activity.
Do I think it? No. But I am not the one sitting on the bench either. And just in case you have missed previous posts, there have been others who have warned her to keep mum on the corporation.
At no time did I say ANYTHING about people who do not work outside of the home. Furthermore, the only time I addressed anything to your attention was to try to clarify your misinformation about Social Security procedures.
You know, this happened to me before when I was trying to help. So, that's it, I'm done. I will keep my nineteen years of experience of trying to secure disability benefits for people to myself. I will then try to force myself to sleep knowing that I let someone believe incorrect information because "someone else" told them otherwise.
I will stick to the Pollyanna posts where I laugh at all the jokes, never have an opinion and wish everyone a nice day as I keep on truckin'. It's worked pretty well for the past year or so. I should have known better. JMHO. LOL.
