 No valium but I do have some Flexeril. Will that do? They sure calm me down! (Bless my rheumatologist!)
My sister had to go in every year to determine if she was still eligible for SSI. My sister had muscular dystrophy, something that everyone knows only gets worse and is always fatal; not sometimes fatal, 100% fatal. Yet, every single year, she had to be picked up from the nursing home and ... |

 Hahahahaha! I could picture Gissi doing that! Maybe he knows that Christmas is near and is overly anxious about receiving his presents? I would have laughed myself silly watching him trying to open the parcel himself when you weren't fast enough.
My two little girls do the same whenever I receive something in the mail. They'll bark like crazy until I bring it in the house, running around in ... |

Happy Belated Birthday, Pye! I hope you had a good one with many more to follow.
I think that cooking for others is always a lot more enjoyable than just cooking for ourselves. I lived alone for a long time. Even after I had my kids and was divorced, I almost always cooked two different dinners, one for the kids and one for myself. (Trying to get a 4-year-old to eat broccoli or peas is like ... |

 Hi Maggie. I didn't mean everyone, I'm talking generally. Humans, as a whole, have become lazy and dependent on gadgets to make their lives easier. That is evident by the rising cases of obesity we see. Not everyone is lazy! I can certainly condone buying things like this for people with arthritis or any other physical problem that would make it very hard or painful to clean cat litter.

Hi pye. Yes, I know of the horrors you've been dealing with as well as Opal's. I wish there was something we, as a group of "dissatisfied customers" could do to make a change but I think it would entail firing every government worker, all the way to the top, and having new applicants take I.Q. tests and it being mandatory that they have at LEAST a triple digit I.Q.!I know all about SSI, act... |

I was wondering why my hair was getting thinner and there are gaping holes where my scalp is shining brightly! Just kidding, but I do have a problem with bruxism. I clench my teeth together when I'm stressed. I've been doing that so much in the past few years that I now have damage to my teeth! It has gotten much worse this past year.
I should sue them just for the principle of the matter. T... |

A friend of mine said that they act like it is their own personal money we're trying to get. That is so true! I think they must get bonuses every time they turn anyone down for benefits. Either that or they just don't feel like taking the time to actually do the job they're paid to do.
My large check is still being held up; that large check for the arrears from April 2000 until now. I think ... |

Thank you, Thoroughrob. I know the problems you've had. My heart goes out to you and your poor son!You're very correct about doing their work for them. For over 20 years, I've been tracking down my ex each time he'd move in order to avoid paying child support. I've even paid money to find him. That is their job, not mine! But, they would never do it. I tracked him down once and learned that... |

Hi Leenie. I'm going to be writing to my congressman this weekend. The man I've been speaking with at our local SSA office has been very helpful, although he can only do so much. He told me to write to my congressman because there is something called a "Congressional Investigation" they start which usually gets results right away.
It's total insanity that it has had to come to this!As fo... |
