Sir Dan: wee elephant has to take ya to da woodshed dis morning.

Ordered my Meds from VA....they put them out for delivery. Way it works..... VA contacts UPS who picks up the outgoing Meds and delivers them to the appropriate USPS facility which then does their thing to get the Meds to the Vets who are in very serious need of them.

I was notified by VA that my Meds had been shipped on the 1st and were to be delivered to my Post Office on the 5th. So, trusting as I am, I go to pick them up, and, yes, as I should have expected.............

THEY WERE NOT THERE!

I had tracking number and message verification of shipment. The local Post Master spent some time trying to figure out what when wrong. Eventually, she blamed UPS for not picking them up on time from the VA. Then blamed both UPS and the Birmingham Postal Facility. Said because of Covid 19, they were short staffed and things were not being done in a normal time frame. "Check sometime next week." Was her advice.

Problem is: I have been out of my Meds since Saturday morning. Missed my afternoon doses and all day Sunday, and this morning as well............. And, I am not the only Vet this is happening to.......

I simply DO NOT understand how the Postal Service and the UPS Corporation are unable to realize how vital it is to prioritize Medications being shipped to Vets. IF ANYTHING, these should be at the head of the line for delivery. Yeah, I am being selfish...........STILL.......

(I know it isn't your fault Brother, just venting)

par for the course p-

had my yearly physical in late aug.

got a letter from my insurance co. saying i owed $126 dollars, ( was supposed to be $ 50 co-pay only).

called them. was told my doctor's office billed it as a office visit, not a wellness check.

called doctor. they denied this, said it was filed correctly, told me to contact lab that did bloodwork.

called lab. they knew nothing.

went back to insurance. they advised me to have doctor's office refile .

called dr., asked to refile.

several days later, called to see if refiling happened. it had not.

called dr. was informed that the billing office would have to refile. billing office is in tampa, fl. ( 500+ miles away.)


i said to &%#& with it and just paid the $126 .

Heeyy listen, if Dan delivers my son's PS5 to your door, please let me know so that I can arrange delivery to my house :p
Dan would have a lot of rain, hail, sleet and snow to trudge through to get here from Missouri, but perchance it does arrive at my doorstep, misdirected from South Africa, I will be sure to let you know :giggle::giggle::giggle:

We are in Jamestown TN now at a Motel which is run by Christians as I noticed they have a hand written board with the 10 Commandments on it outside their office door. I plan on meeting them soon as Jerry checked us in and we will stay here probably until the house closes. It is a small little town population is in the 2000's. The Tampa, Clearwater, St. Pete area has over three million plus people. I'd say we downsized on the people a tad...

The motel is quiet and just a couple miles from our home we are trying to close on. The weather is cooler and the people here are not so much mask wearers. This is Trump country I won't hold that against them... I like the fact there are fewer people. The house will be smaller and so will the mortgage payment I like that I look forward to this change and we are closer to family in Indiana and Michigan.

Church is just a little over two miles away closer than our last church. Look forward to getting settled and our furniture out of storage.
Pray we will close soon... Thanks
Looking forward to checking out the church on Saturday. Due to my previous work schedule I haven't been to church in over 4 years. That is entirely my fault but now is the time to change.

Yeah, the weather is cooler, 3 plus inches last Sunday. What is that about anyway?

This is indeed Trump country, 4 years from now it will be Pence country. I never cared much for Trump anyway, especially because of his disparaging remarks towards the military. The US Armed Forces is the only government institution that I hold in the highest regard.

You are the one person that I hold in the highest regard too.
