I looked them up - I could remember the first 2 lines, but not the rest!

Even before stumps started this thread I had been thinking about how I closet myself too much - I saw a beautiful sunset from my own window the other night and realized I hadn't bothered to look out the window for weeks at that special time of day.

I've never been to an Atlantic Ocean beach - I'd like to see an ocean sunrise someday. I keep intending to visit, but you know about good intentions!

Cheers from the West Coast,

Reading this gave me as much pleasure as watching the foal and her mum, I have never seen dolphins live so it was tuly amazing to read this story.
so many of us possibly can't physically do much, I know that I can't but I try to remember that there are still so-called simple pleasures to enjoy, free as well.
Those roses, I love the smell and watching them grow, but have now found it hard to bend over to look after them from the wheelchair but ...the problem was overcome, minature standard roses in tubs on the patio, so I can still enjoy beauty and scent. and those horses well they supply the most wonderful manure LOL's
Sometimes I have found that just by sitting relaxing watching the birds or trees or horses my body can relax in a natural way, soothed by nature..

Hello, Stumps, I met you years ago on another forum and just wanted to say hello. Mike

My name is Teri I'm a 50yr old female. I applied for social security back in 2003 to present. After being turned down 3 times my attorney advised me to apply again which was in sept 2008. My first application I was found unfavorable. I was denied my second application only once then a yr later I had my second hearing and was found full favorable from 2008 in may 2011 , and 7 days later I received a letter fully favorable. At that time my first case was sitting around and no one could find it this file was now at the Federal level, but now that i was awarded last yr the appeal consult decided to step down, and have an ALJ to review my case since i was awarded with my second case. Today I went to court, and I just found out that the judge had an expert Dr. on the line phone interview. This Dr read my files and he didn't think at the time I was disabled and I was capable to work full-time. So now I have to wait 30-90 days. My attorney seem to think that the expert Dr ruined it for us. My attorney asked me today if i wanted to keep fighting for this case or just forget about it since I've already been found as disabled any suggestions ????
