When I filed for my Socvial Security, I hated it, but because I shake so bad, they filled out my paperwork then sent me to a doctor. My arthritis in my knees got me mine. But the arthritis is clear thru my body, in my bones. I think it is a shame that someone who gets Social Security because they can't read, and choose not to learn, and someone who is severly ill has to go thru all kinds of things to get it for their health.

The water is a very good idea. I am glad that you two are going to the movie. The distraction will do you good. Take a pocketful of veggies for crunching on.
Hang in there. It is a big drain, but you'll come out on top.
God bless you.

Take a minute or two for rest and nourishment. The movies sounds like a very relaxing activity. All that paper work can tire a brain out. I did that last fall and feel your pain.

Today was a big day. We went to the doctor and then I did all the leg work for the paperwork for social security and the real feel was about 113. I was hungry all day. Not sure if stress or just plain hunger. Just drinking water to take off the edge from the hunger. I am really tired, but will be up late tonight putting his package together for social security. He really isn't able to do this as he has multiple disabilities. Tomorrow we are going to the movies and back down to Newport News to lab and social security. Doesn't that sound like fun!!! Also, need to get some exercise in tonight at some point.
