Hello everyone, remember me? How about some NEWS responses......

   Well I am back, yep, I have busier than, well you know. If you follow my better half, JUGM, then you may have picked up on some of the things I have been doing. Since my last update, I feel that I have recovered from the severe dehydration I faced, along with picking something up from one of my boys schools during open house, so I am getting back to normal. Heading into week 3 of my final class and I'm excited, mainly because I get to do things that doesn't require me writing a paper or earning a grade.

    This past weekend we were in South Carolina handling business with my dad's estate. Yeah, had to visit the Social Security Administration and hand deliver a death certificate to them so they can fix his date of death so I will stop receiving correspondence from medical agencies. Also, had to visit the DM "F"ing V to straighten out a title he didn't take care of when my step-mom passed away. Of course the title was old, and they had to rebuild it there which took longer.

    The weather sucked on the aspect that it rained much of the time, but the temps were nice and I don't think they made it above 70 the whole weekend, which was nice as I work in the heat of Florida, I am not lucky to has a business where I sit all day in A/C and surf the Internet. Ah, the smiles go out to a special friend......

    BTW, I don't have many followers and that is fine, but I want to thank everyone who stops by an reads my input to this spinning ball we call Earth. THANKS EVERYONE!!!!

  3. Glad you're back and glad you have recovered. I agree with all your news commentary. I listened to "Disgrace the Nation" yesterday, and the news was so grim, they sounded like preppers !

    1. I will have to agree Jane, much of the stuff you see on the sunday talk shows is grim and sad. I wish I had a crystal ball to see what the future holds.

  6. Dealing with estates is not easy. Thankfully when my dad passed away I was able to skate out of all that and one of my brothers got stuck with it.

    1. Harry, I am real good at administrative issues but what gets me the most about this probate court is the requirement to wait 8 months, basically hurry up and wait, hmm, I think all us veterans have heard that once or twice before. When my mom passed in 08, I wasn't a NC resident so my half brother had to handle it and he was clueless as a deck seamen working on a jet. Of course, you know who had to kick him in the ass to get stuff done. Glad to see you back.

  7. Sounds like you've had your hands full; I hope the progress made was worth the aggravation.

    1. Rev, things are getting less aggravated. Most of the aggravation was from the initial visit and establishing the Estate. All the other issues just was collateral damage. It was nice to enjoy temps below 70 all weekend.

  9. Yeah, agree with all, and I 'dislike' SC DMV almost as much as VA DMV... sigh

    1. Never had to deal with VA DMV, maybe that was a hidden reason of why I was stationed there, except for schools at Dam Neck. This particular DMV has never been expanded in 40 years, so imagine population growth over that time, almost like a sardine can.

    2. Sorry, wasn't stationed there.
