8. Well, what I said was...

I miss it and I do not want to die here in frozen land so I would rather walk back to NC than attempt anything here. I am not able to work anymore. I can't sit for long periods. I can't walk or stand for long periods. Getting up and down is difficult. And, it seems my skill set is not needed in any capacity anymore. If it isn't my arthritis, it is my neuropathy. If it isn't that, it is my bad back going out. If it isn't that... you get the idea. But, each one by itself is apparently not enough to warrant SS disability and they won't take my situation as a whole. Which is what they have to do to gauge how useless I am. I can barely leave the house these days. And, not just because of physical ailments. I struggle to do much of anything.

My husband is not interested in moving to the Tarheel state. I may never live there again. My last visit to the Banks was two years ago. At least I got to see it again... spend a little time in mother ocean... walking the beach at night, seeing the ghost crabs run to and fro. I miss home.
