Oh Kelly, it is sooooooo good to see you posting again.

I'm sorry about your job and having to place your babies.

Prayers on the way that you find another job real soon so that you will be able to get your own place and have your babies back with you where they belong.

Take care

Awww, thank you so much for the warmest welcome...a PT welcome!!

OK, I want to try and answer all your questions...

Jen...yep! We got internet at mom's house...I HAD to put them in the 21st century! They work on computers all day, so they didn't want one at home...but I convinced them that we all needed one. My step-dad is retiring on Nov 3 and that helped convince mom as well. Its my computer, as Stace shared (thank you, sweets!), so it has all my pictures and everything I'm used to on it. Also, this was mainly my mom's idea, she could SEE how much I missed my PT support and wanted to get this hooked up ASAP, that was really nice. So, Jen, yep, I'm on here for GOOD! Yay!!
(Jen...I really like your siggy, your crew are too cute!! How are you? Have I missed anything important? How are you and Charlie?)

Catty1 & Moosmom...Disability would only pay me approx $1200/mo. I'm not sure on how many hours I CAN work along with that, that may be worth looking into to suppliment if I can get the SSD. I know crohns is covered under SSD, so the hard part is done, thankfully. As far as finding SSD supported housing, the only downside is that usually pets are NOT welcome...especially my FIVE cats.

I wish they were more openminded and could see the health benefits of sharing ones life with animals, but not yet.

Thank you for the ideas, they are worth looking into.

Everyone else...thank you so much! I look forward to getting any updates...Tracey, I see a newby in the siggy!!! TOO CUTE!!!

Zoey...thank you as well!

I've been around PT since 2001! Can you believe it? WOW! Its nice "meeting you"

Hugs,
Kelly

Its so great to be back!!!!!

YAY for PINK!!! Its always lovely to talk with you...even more so in the recent weeks/months. I've missed you so much Slick.

(((((hugs))))

Sorry I just saw this,,but I was so excited to see your thread!! YAY!

I also can't imagine that a hospital, of all places, doesn't understand your situation. Hmmm. isn't that discrimination? Anyway, you're right, it wasn't meant to be. Their loss. I'm just thrilled you're back, hooked up to the internet and feeling somewhat better. You'll be reunited with your clan again, thankfully they're in good hands!

I know, SSD is not the jackpot, but it's better than nothing. You can work parttime for a certain amount..don't recall the exact details. Could you get some state help like food stamps? I know you want to work, and you'll find something terrific!! Good luck! Take care, stay healthy...Lots of hugs!

Hi Kelly, welcome back! It's good to see you again on PT.

We cross our paws that you find the best solution for yourself, and that you and your kitties can live together soon

I can't imagine how hard it should be to live like this.

All the best,
Sonia

**pitc9** · 10-13-2006, 09:45 AM

WELCOME BACK!
I wish you Good luck in your hunt for a new job!
I'm so sorry you are without your furkids

I hope you are all together again Soon!!

**Randi** · 10-13-2006, 09:56 AM

Kelly, it's good to see you back. Sorry about your job, I hope you find something that suits you soon, perhaps a part time job would be good. Hopefully you can be reunited with your kitties too.

Good luck!

**anna_66** · 10-13-2006, 03:01 PM

Hey there Kelly...Great to see you back on PT

I hope you'll find a good job and a nice place that will take you AND your kitties soon!

**NoahsMommy** · 10-13-2006, 03:20 PM

Thank you all so very much for your warm welcome and kind words.

My biggest goal right now is to get a good paying job with good benefits ASAP so I can move out of my parent's home and into my own place so my furkids and I can live together again. Its really hard without them, especially my Micah...he's my little kitty nurse and lies on my upper abdoman when I have bad pain and stays there. He's such a dear...as are all of them.

I'm going to go see Phoebe and Basie in just a few minutes. We're going to go outside and play in a larger cat run that Carol has. I'm excited! I haven't gotten to touch or kiss them sinse last Friday as our schedules have been crossing.

Again, thanks so much for such a warm welcome back. Its so great to be back here with you all.

Hugs, Kelly
