Well, after struggling and managing to barely keep my job for the past few months, I have decided to throw in the towel and pursue short-term disability while I try to work with my doctor on treatments for pain/fatigue and my IBS. It truly is the IBS and fatigue that are unmanageable and disrupt my work so much anymore. I just can't take it anymore, so I give. This body can only do so much, and Nebraska weather just works against me. I'm too poor to move out of state, so I just hope I can get short-term disability. I am sending an email to my HR rep for information on applying. Yay. I will be going to get free food today and tomorrow to stock up, if in the event I need to eventually file for long-term disability. I don't want to be seen outside the house for anything but my doctor visits. Got to take my books back to the library too. Get my oil changed. Other than that, I think I'm good. I mostly stay home anyway, due to pain/fatigue, when I'm not working. So nothing will actually change, just go out a little bit less. No trip to library...and I think that's about it. Got to take some stuff back to Walmart too. Store credit always a good. May want to pick up some different library books too. Those would be good for 12 weeks or so with renewal, if I remember right.
