Hi everyone!!
 

Sorry I havent been around, been enjoying a new way of life. I know that sounds crazy, but after 5 years with zero income, and just getting by. This is a whole new life LOL.

I havent received the entire backpay yet, as they are still figuring all the ways they can deduct from it. There are many different ways to look at income for them, and they are very good at deducting. It is too bad they arent as good at getting things done on a timely basis hahahaha!

There are 2 grandbabies living with me, and man am I havin fun spoiling them. They are helping me to increase my endurance, so when the backpay does arrive I will be able to kinda enjoy it.

I find I can go a few minutes longer every week, but still find that there is repercussions. Pain is a real limiting factor to fun.

One thing that happened this week that kinda scared me, and made me think of Vic happened on a trip to wal-nuts. There wasnt a mobility scooter available, so I was hoofin it. Im slow as a snail. Even when im hurrying, anyone could crawl faster :p

Anyways, after about 20 minutes of walkin around the store I noticed that my right arm was deep dark purple. It ached real bad, and the shoulder was extremely painful. That ended my sightseeing tour of wal-nuts, and shows im not crazy. The RSD has moved into my right shoulder and arm, but it wont stop me from trying to enjoy myself as much as I possibly can.
That was the first time the color was that intense. Kinda looked like my arm was dead, and even freaked my wife out :eek:

Since then it has done it twice more, and swells real bad too. Hope this stuff doesnt get any further. I noticed since the weather has changed everything hurts a lot more. So come on summer!! LOL

I hope everything is well with everyone, and the cold isnt hurting too bad. :winky:

You all are the best, and I will try to get over here and post and read more. Have a very Merry Christmas and a less painful new YEAR!

:grouphug:

Hey Allen,
Nice to hear from you. Hope all is going well. The purple arm is something I went thru, neurontin helps me with the discoloration. Kinda unnerving tho. Life goes on for a couple of old farts like us. I just keep getting up and trying to make it thru the day. I'm glad the funds are starting to come in. Have a great holiday.

Hi Allen,
Sorry To Hear About The Shoulder, But Happy To Hear About The Money, And The Grandbabies, And Especially About Your Wonderful Attitude! Wow, You Inspired Me.
Also What A Great Picture Of Santa You Sent. Loved It.
I Am Expected Grandsons #7 And # 8 Twins! By Monday At The Latest (c-section Scheduled) So I Am Very Excited And Have Been Working To Strengthen Myself So I Can Be As Big A Part Of Their Lives As Possible.
So, A Blessed Chistmas To You Ho Ho Ho!!! Joan

Hi Allen,
 

Great picture. Reminds me of the olden days.

You'd better watch at spoiling those Grandkids. It might come back and bite you in the butt. If they move near you then they will be able to use those spoils on you. LOL

I am very glad you got your SS and that you are enjoying your income. I know how that is, to live with no income for years. I did the same. Now you can buy all of those new gadgets out there to play with.

Hope you have a Merry Christmas. I know you will.
