State of the AJ -- July 2016

Jul 19, 2016 21:01

I used to do these posts over on LiveJournal and Dreamwidth a lot, then I just kind of slacked off. The last time I did one of these posts anywhere was in April of 2014. I won't try to update every single thing that's happened since then, but I'll hit some of the major points.

( All sorts of things to catch up on... )

fandom stuff, pets, tv ramblings, spirituality, fandom :: damien, juju, new house, writing

good to see you're still kicking around out there in real life land :) With your migraines, have you ever thought about applying for federal disability? It's a process and a half, and you will almost always be rejected the first time, but once you get a rejection, you can hire a lawyer who will work for free until you get paid... My mom did that with her CHF diagnosis and even though it took time for her to get on it, now she has good medical and a monthly stipend.

I do wish you all the luck with job-finding and writing! :)

The disability is a goal within the WorkSource plan actually. My soulsis [you remember Lorre?] does work related to that, and basically said that I should be able to work with WorkSource to see about getting a paper trail with them about my inability to do "normal" work that should help with getting the disability approved better/faster/easier.
