Rats!! Mood
Friday, April 4, 2008

Rats, rats, rats...my disability was denied, I knew it would be though. I've heard you always have to appeal but I just hate going through all this. So in the meantime I'm going to increase my hours at work and just try to get by.

Mother has some kinda interview today, everyone pray she gets it (AND KEEPS IT!!!)

I am having a horrible time with my knee today, very sharp pain deep inside every so often that make me wanna scream. Anybody else get this? I never know if it's RA, Fibro or just bad luck anymore.

Michael is applying for a different position at work, he said if he gets it I'll have to quit because it's 9-5 (right now he's graveyard so there's always someone to watch the baby, of course we don't see each other much!) In any case, the raise would basically be what I'm making now so that's fine, but I'm kinda enjoying working again when I'm not in too much pain. I stayed home for 2 years with Ian and I'm not sure I want to fuill time again. So we'll see...

 Love you guys, hope you're relatively pain free today! Undecided

    That's a bummer!!!! I hope that Michael gets the job. At least that would help financially and give you an option. I also hope that your mom is able to find a job and keep it. Try to take it easy. This weather has been playing havic on my joints too. Hugs, Dawn

    Hope Michael gets that other position - that way you have the option to work or not and maybe could just do something part time. Are you going to appeal the disability thing?

    Oh sweet girl I am so sorry you hurt so badly! Bad bad bad government on denying your disability. That is probably why I have never bothered to apply. Luckily we get by on Jack's salary or I probably would. I am hoping you feel better tomorrow ( today). I also pray that Michael gets that different job so you can quit yous and be home with Ian. Also I hope your mom gets hers that she interviewed for. Feel better sweetie. I love ya, marcia
