I slept late today. I was up early and went back to bed. Guess I needed the sleep.

It's very cloudy and humid here today. Looks like it could rain any second but it's still dry out. We definitely don't need anymore rain!

Wiz, I hope you can get the ball rolling on your SSDI. Fatigue is one of my major sx so I can sympathize with what you're feeling. There is no way I could keep the pace I used to when I worked. I wish I could....even if just for a day or two....but I know that's a distant memory for me. There is a plus side to not working, though. I've reduced my stress and slowed waaaay down for the first time in many years and I like it. Once you get all the red tape that accompanies applying for disability out of the way it's actually a relief to be able to just take a breath and not worry about having to be anywhere at any certain time.

I'm not doing much today. Maybe some laundry.

Well, I spoke too soon.....it's pouring rain here now.

Everyone have a nice weekend!

hey Wiz ... would you do me a super favor??? get a journal from the Dollar Store and keep track on your SSDI process ... when you call someone, when you fill out the paperwork, when you get a response ... etc etc etc ...

I pray that you have better luck than I have ... I didn't expect this to rip a hole in my heart on waiting ...

best to you!! HUGS!!

Good advice from Vonn. I kept a folder and put everything I got from SS in it. I also kept an online journal in a Word document. Everytime I'd call them or they'd call me I'd log it in. Turns out I never needed it but it's nice to know it's there. I was approved immediately.....guess I should have sent my Neuro a thank-you card because the lady I dealt with at SS said my records were very thorough. I did everything online and by phone. Good luck!
