It totally sucks that you're starting so soon after surgery though!

I really AM fecking perfect. :)<br /><br />I hope things get better. Do you have a process there where you can appeal the decision about disability? I know quite a few people here who got denied the first time around, but got the green light via appeal. Worth a shot, anyway. <br /><br />Psssst! You're not old. (If you're "old", I'm reeeeeeeally old!) <br /><br />Ever think about working as a book editor? You could do it from home... could go poop whenever you feel the urge... and might could even slip in an afternoon nap between shows on the Food channel. :)Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-79605952548512036442015-08-24T11:47:06.218-04:002015-08-24T11:47:06.218-04:00Oh jeez Cathy.....I just hope things pick up for y...Oh jeez Cathy.....I just hope things pick up for you.

I'm going back to work September 1st for the same reason. My small home business was doing well but I was struggling with people not wanting to pay.

I knew about the surgery and the job, but I didnt' realize Cold Lake's boom times were over so quickly. I would like not to have to go back to work either. Russell doesn't want me to, but sometimes being alone with my thoughts contributes to my horrible anxiety so I do think about it. Pity I'm not cut out to work with the public (retail, food service). I hope things turn around for you soon. Sorry about your son too.....:(JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-6527720662225616792015-08-24T10:17:17.962-04:002015-08-24T10:17:17.962-04:00Hang in there girl......things will get better (or...Hang in there girl......things will get better (or they won't).
