I'm with everyone else here. I think 2009 was the end of a very bad few years. I know, deep in my bones, that this year will be the beginning of a new, better time. Don't know how I know, but I do. It will really start getting better by spring. I'm getting the pain pump on Monday, the know the next 5-6 wks will be hard, painful, and frustrating. But after that I see things getting better. I pretty sure my pcp dr. is going to hire me on for front desk, so financially, it will get better. I'm only allowed to earn a little as I'm on SSD, and I know I will never be well enough to work full time again. That and the fact that I am 60 years old. Not that that is old, but on paper it looks it. lol
daughter and her DH moved in with us in Dec with their 2 cats. Our house is only 1500 sq feet. not big at all. Come spring I know they will be moving into a place of their own..and I'll get my house back in order. so...everyone, just hang in there for a few more months. It is looking better.

Hugs
Mary
