  • Thinking about options

    I was surprised to learn that approximately 62% of initial Social Security disability claims are denied. I guess my denial falls within what is expected. Some appeals result in success. It would be good to have an online teaching position. I saw a job posting that has been open and accepting applications for an extended… Continue reading

  • Denied

    Today I found a letter dated 4/30/2026 from the Social Security Administration. My claim for disability benefits was denied. I am so disappointed. Continue reading

  • Update

    I stayed in again today (yesterday was very interesting – I rescheduled an appointment). I expected to hear from the Social Security Administration by now. I guess my application is complicated. We were running low on food. A timely delivery to our front steps provided groceries for the household (a big thank you to my… Continue reading

  • Power

    WordPress prompt for today 5/6/2026: What super power do you wish you had and why? I thought this question was very interesting. We are born with talents and need to figure out what we are good at, what work makes us happy, and so on. Some excel at math, some excel at literature, and so… Continue reading

  • After the hospital

    I was on a liquid diet during my hospital stay. My lunch tray at the hospital included soup, milk, juice, jello, and ice cream. Everything was good. Unfortunately, I did not stick to liquids only when I got home. Since returning home, I had cereal, milk, tea, and soup. Continue reading

  • Family

    Family time is important. I saw lots of family members over the last few days. They made their way over to our place. We had a steady stream of visitors. Their hugs and concern made me feel better. At some point, I would like to visit London to take my half-sister up on her offer. Continue reading

  • Update

     I am still not feeling well today. There is a lot going on beyond me. It caused me to miss an important family event. I am at home dealing with issues. I wish I had my “own” place. I am enjoying a cup of tea. It is without sugar and still tastes pretty good.  (I… Continue reading

  • Compensation paper

    I am dealing with a lot right now. I am not “busy” a whole lot but it helps to be. I got a new idea for my compensation paper so I got up and went to the computer. I prefer this new and different approach because it will lead to very interesting and useful results/answers.… Continue reading

  • IT Professional

    I specialized in finance for many years (held Financial Analyst, Financial Auditor positions). Then I became an IT (information technology) professional. I held several IT/Business/Systems Analyst positions. I worked in Testing/Quality Assurance and on (software) requirements teams. A training program assisted with my transition from business to IT. I later completed a master’s degree in… Continue reading

  • Good Friday

    It is Good Friday. Christians think of the crucifixion of Christ especially on this day. I was once told that the most important verse in the Bible is John 3:16: For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.… Continue reading

FEATURED

I am working to be published.

I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.

About THIS BLOG

I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.

I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. If you are here for information on my success research, click on the ‘success’ tag. If you are here for information on my hometown, click on the ‘lindenguyana’ tag.

I welcome comments. Submit your comments and feedback at any time. I prefer that you use Facebook for comments, but feel free to comment in any of the blogs or on Twitter.
