Guest guest Posted August 31, 2000 Report Share Posted August 31, 2000 OK, OK now I understand. I am a dianosauer, part of the early age of computers. When people started communicating on the internet about some topic, it was called, and actually was, a mailing list. Then servers got into the act to make it easier, but the " list " moniker stuck until very recently where, with the coming of chat and the huge diversity of " mailing list groups " people have recognized things like what we're doing here as " groups " in the social & support sense. It is interesting that we began this group on OneList, a free " list " server; and now are continuing along in eGroups. That's progress. All along I have wanted people to recognize the reality of being a social group, as opposed to a bunch of people trading information; like on some abstract technical subject.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2000 Report Share Posted September 1, 2000 >Ken, >I wanted to ask you, Do you work? and what is " HURTING " you? >I understand if that is to personal. >4ever >JULES Hi Jules, What is hurting me is a very good question. It goes further than what's my problem, or particular physical problem. I have a spinal arthritic condition called ankylosing spondylitis that is about 35 years advanced. Basically, there is some breakdown of the spine & arthritic deposits outside & inside. Activity is important, but inflames my back. 2 edged sword- activity builds muscles that compensate for problems with the spine. I also have flares similar to rheumatoid arthritis. Have gotten very good medical care & surgery to help me keep active. Now for the hurting part. My disability caused me to lose a career in rehabilitation & planning psychiatric services. There was family breakup too Those things, particularly family, are constant pain worse than the physical. I moved to Vegas because I am much better off physically in the climate. Problems kept my family from coming too as planned, & that was the beginning of the end. So far as work, had to completely rethink what I could do & how I could do it. Then some medications made me unexpectedly better. so now I am faced with some conservative things I started (web-related business) and some more aggressive & demanding options. I am also a professional photographer. Got my gear together & started soliciting jobs in last few months. I weighed the counseling vs. photography. My conclusion was that photography was more physically manageable. I can schedule jobs, then plan sufficient crash time. In Counseling, I would have too much regularity to deal with, at least for now. And the photography (weddings) offers greater up-front income potential, as well as much more social exposure, so I would meet more people. Have been very isolated for years. Since no one has given me a windfall of cash to finance anything, I am trying to use web work to generate advertising money for photography. But I may luck out without having to spend much on advertising. My first 2 weddings are for casino workers (1/3 of the residents of Vegas work in casinos) I may just be able to promote to casino workers just by handing out cards with freebies at my weddings & getting some signs up at employee bulletin boards. Oh, I forgot to include that I am consulting as a rehabilitation counselor on a current SSD appeal. Just a few things to keep busy; but a bit too scattered for my tastes. I suppose this will eventually work itself out. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
