Ginger, would a warm soak in epsom salt help with the swelling? It helps with my edema, but I don't know if it is the same thing at all. I'm sorry about the housing stuff.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
that YES, she is spamming us with too many pro-Obama reblogs, and stop preaching to the choir, 'cause she's cluttering up our feed.
2 of my sisters do this. And it's not just Obama, it's global warming, support the troops (one is a military mom), Native Americans and Feminist posts.
I AGREE with everything they post, but when I see that I have 100 updates, 89 of them are just those 2! One of them just retired and apparently has nothing else to do all day!

I have avoided re-posting political things recently to avoid family drama, but I may rethink that after today.

Ginger, you might enjoy Barabra Ehrenreihs "Bright Sided" in the unlikely event you have not already read it. A book length rant about what you are talking about.

I have had enough of hearing about disabled person who never let their disability get them down and still managed to do amazing things to last me a lifetime.Tell me about it. When I was poster child, I did a lot of telethons. Nothing but that followed by tear jerking stories to help the kids. Hmm. That might be why I haven't watched the Labor Day Telethon in awhile.

I haven't gone to a SB gathering in a very long time. Too much being told I wasn't disabled enough for my taste. As soon as I was old enough to decide for myself whether or not I wanted to attend those things, I was out of there.

I have read Bright Sided. I agreed with most of it, although she has a wacky view of breast cancer treatment that could be harmful.

wtf, sj? People are so wrong sometimes.
The only relative I have who sends spammy political emails always sends the RW ones. Like some joke where the punch line is that the US has gone to hell since Obama's been in office, or lame riffs about how it used to be back in the good ol' days. I usually delete his emails without opening them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I also meant to say the other day that you should please post whenever you need to. I think about you often, but I don't want to bug you too much about how you are doing unless you don't want to talk about it. If there is anything you need, you should speak up.
Ginger, I say this also.
I've been re-posting a lot of pro-Obama stuff on Facebook lately, mainly to annoy the shit out of someone. But the fun of it has worn off, so I'm done.

Too much being told I wasn't disabled enough for my taste.Oh yes! This. Only for me, it was "You are so lucky you have one of the mild forms of Muscular Dystrophy". No. If I was lucky, I wouldn't have MD at all! It took a while for me to stop agreeing with people who told me that.
