Good morning everyone!

Well, it's finally cooled off here in GA. Going to be in the 50's today. Finally!!

Frank, be careful of any "work at home" deals you come across. Some of them are just out to take your money. I think you can make up to $900 or $950 a month before SS says anything to you. Something done from home would be ideal, though, 'cos you don't have to deal with getting up and dressed....you could work in your jammies!

Can you type? Now there's a stupid question....look at your post count!! What I was thinking was this....our county paper has all the Legal announcements published in it once a week (foreclosures, divorces, adoptions, name changes, etc.) and they have a team of people who do nothing but type and proof these listings. I know of a couple of them who work from home and email their work in. I'd love to do something like that but these jobs don't open up too often and when they do there is already a waiting list of people ready to take them. But, it's something you could look into.

Maybe contact your county's library. Maybe you could do some sort of work for them....it's quiet (or supposed to be) and there's probably something you could do sitting down.

I know how you feel, though. On the days that I feel somewhat "normal" I want to do something productive so badly. But that little voice in the back of my mind keeps telling me not to get used to it 'cos the fatigue will slap me down when I'm least expecting it to. Oh well, I'll take the good days as long as I can get them.

Good luck to you....I hope you can find something.

Frank, hope that things will work out for you and Deb. You've gotten a lot of cool advice.

~~~~~~~~

Morning all. Knew it last night when I got home, but yep - pushed just a little too hard when it came to the show. Survived, very worth it, but very tired and wobbly this morn. LOL, the "pay to play" program is still in effect.

So glad hubby drove me there and back yesterday, so that was one less thing that I had to do. I can still drive safely, but good grief it makes me so tired sometimes. That is probably one of the things that drives me nutty when I think about it. I know why it causes me to be so tired - constant movement and having to be aware at all times.

So today I'm just going to tackle some laundry and some dishes. With lots of breaks in between. And coffee.

Hope everyone has a great day.
