    Praised be Jesus Christ!
    Honestly dearest DS family, I will try to sit down later today and write some sort of update.  SSDI has really been putting me through the hoops and now I have to go for a Psych Eval in March and full Health exam in April by their doctors who will issue reports as to my ability to work.  It took me two weeks just to fill out the form asking me to write wha...

  • Just want to say this

    Thursday, May 8, 2008 | A Happy story

    For anyone that is reading this, I'm not trying to brag or put anyone else down. I just want to post this for clarity and to let you guys know what I do with my time, money and myself. I believe that charity begins at home. I believe that after that you are to help your fellow man/person. After that I don't know really.. Help anyone you can. Reach out and offer support, advice assistance ...

  • Surprise From Doc

    Sunday, November 22, 2009 | A Positive story

    I went to the doctor yesterday to get my leg and foot checked and got a surprise.  First, the infection in my right leg is getting better and, with a little more time, should heal.  Will keep putting anti-itch cream on it and wrapping it with an ace bandage.  She also prescribed a diueritic for help bring the swelling down. The surprise came when she looked at my left foot.  I...

  • Well I slept through the whole weekend!!

    Monday, October 6, 2008 | A Funny story

    I slept through the whole weekend and missed that OJ Simpson was found guilty on all counts.  From what I heard he will spend the rest of his days in prison.  Weird that this will put him away when the murder trial didn't.   I guess that Nicole's friend's family won't get their millions from him now.  He also won't be able to sneak around and do signin...

  • ABBA

    Tuesday, September 30, 2008 | A Happy story

    I'm still on my ABBA kick.  Guess it's been 2 or 3 months now.  I really hadn't heard much of them when they were popular.  Country music was my thing then.  A few years ago, I heard one of their songs on an oldies radio station and it got my attention.  I went out an got the ABBA Gold cassette.  It's great.  It's a shame they weren't as ...

  • House Cleaning

    Monday, May 26, 2008 | A Positive story

    Did a little house cleaning this morning on DS.  I've deleted last September's journals.  That's when I came here.  I read each one and it was funny how they progressed, from being scared to being arrogant all in one month.  And I wrote about my changing work schedule and my BS readings and not having some of the problems you are having with type 2.  And ...

  • Blessed

    Thursday, February 26, 2009 | A Happy story

    I am blessed.  As you know, my car has been in the shop.  3 days!  Well, the problem was the fuse box had shorted out.  The shop called me and said they couldn't find a replacement.  They'd searched all the junk yards and nothing.  I missed work Monday and rented a car Tuesday.  When I got the rental place, all they had was a cargo van!  Not somethi...

  • I have made some new friends on DS.  I decided to check into all the physical problems that I have listed for me a found a large array of people in different kinds of situations.  One is a nurse,  one is a woman who lost her son at the age of 2 from Addison's (remember God only takes the good people and sometimes they are too young to speak for themselves),  one is having ...
