Likelihood of CDR approval if MIE?

I was approved on the first try effective when I was 40 for treatment resistant depression mostly but also have generalized anxiety disorder and recent diagnosis of ADHD (though probably not in time for SSDI approval). My letter says medical improvement expected (MIE). I don’t anticipate getting better enough to work full time in anything let alone my intense management job. Of course I’m earning very little compared to what I was. If my review is in 18 months and it says medical improvement is expected, what is the likelihood of my CDR being approved if I haven’t improved significantly enough to work. I obviously want to go back to work if I can since my earning potential is much higher that SSDI but don’t see that as possible.

Comfy chair or couch at a library?

Hi! Which libraries in the East Bay have comfy couches or chairs to sit in to read (and occasionally take crochet breaks). I have a car so am flexible on location in the east bay. Don’t want to cross a bridge but will go through the tunnel.

I could in theory get a library card to Berkeley I think but would like to avoid those campus libraries if possible.

▲ 4 r/Lyft

The app just says $0 and doesn’t give me an option to change it. I don’t actually know how much the ride is either. So confused. I actually didn’t even know these rides were through Lyft. Used it to get a mammogram and pick up prescriptions.

I have almost 700 rides in Lyft and a 4.9 rating. I am not an incompetent Lyft rider. But I sure feel like one right now.

Hello, I have a 2019 Lexus NX300h. Dealer fleet vehicle with about 9800 miles when I bought it during the early months of the pandemic May 2020. I didn't own a car for 3 years prior but pandemic made it so that public transit wasn't really an option anymore so I caved and bought the car. I think I am technically considered the first owner - it wasn't even considered certified pre owned.

Currently, It only has 24k miles so in the 6 years I owned it, I drove it only about 14K miles. I live in the Bay Area so everything is close and I don't drive to work. Very rarely do far drives.

I still haven't replaced my battery and am wondering how long it is supposed to last. I saw 48 months or 50K miles. Does that mean it will last me 50k miles? Because at this rate, that's probably another 10 years and a 17 year old battery doesn’t seem right.

And when I do replace it, I plan to just get it at Costco.
They have a basic one and then an AGM one? Which version would be in my car now if I have the original battery? Which version would I need to replace it with?
Thank you for your help!!

EDIT: I have no interest in selling my car so am requesting no more DMs asking. I plan to drive this car to its grave. I’m not a car person really so no plan to replace this one until it is not even worth selling.

I know a lot of it is on the Internet but I really just want something I don’t need to search for. If it has some simple patterns, great, but mostly looking for stitch guides.
Thanks!! Ideally a physical book but kindle/ereader works too.

Sold something and the buyer is someone that happens to live in my building. eBay suggests still going through the tracked shipping. But that sounds ridiculous when I can just walk downstairs and hand it to them. Am I missing something?
