    I haven't been on in a long while.

    Life has been interesting as of late. I applied for disability and had it denied and I appealed it because I was treated badly. I have made a few things recently. Here they are.

    I don't have much yarn so I make things from what I can get a hold of. I stopped using acrylic yarn because It is bad for you. I still cannot confirm how much BPA is used in making the yarn and when you touch it all day, how much is entering your body. The softer the yarn I'm assuming he more chemicals including BPA. I am know only using natural yarns such as 100% wool.

    This bunny I will be making for a craft fair this next Christmas season. I am hoping to make some money. I'm making them out of wool and will be selling them for $30. Wish me luck.

    This next one is Einstein the Lion, he was a labor of love.

    I am no longer able to keep a website or a blog. I have been too sick as of late. So if anyone wants to contact me just send me a message.

    You make beautiful things and your work is just perfect!

    My ex-husband has been on disability for 15 years, he has Lupus really bad. He's convinced that every application that comes through is almost always denied the first time around. Don't be discouraged and definitely re-apply or appeal the decision. It's a shame they make it so difficult to get approved. But one thing that's good is the approval will be retroactive back to the date you originally applied.

    Hang in there and know that I'm praying for you. I hope you're feeling better.

    Hugs,
    Shelley

    The guy who did my claim told me he would wait for my doctor to submit papers and then he went ahead and processed it without his papers on purpose. He lied and denied my claim. So I appealed. Can't believe how deceitful the government is.

    You can't trust anyone with stuff like this. It's a real shame, too. They should be there to really help people. I'm glad you went ahead immediately and appealed the decision. I know people who are on disability for the most frivolous and bogus reasons. If they got approved, you should, too, especially since your's is for a legitimate reason!!! Keep the faith!!!

    I was denied the first time too. I finally got approved after a year and getting lawyer to help. I received retroactive pay back to the first date I applied. My lawyer could only take a limited fee due to a state law. Don't give up.
    Love your work!
