This is about finding life in the most unusual way. The most unusual places and people, and moments in time. It is about seeing without looking and finding without searching. It is about realizing that not all signs are obvious but they are there. It is about living.

Government Waste
As a Veteran I have been struggling with what happened to me here in Texas. I just spent three plus months at the Connecticut VA having all sorts of tests done on me at I am sure some expense. While I appreciate it and needed all of them I feel that they should suffice for any other VA.
I found myself in Texas due to family illness; shortly after; I needed to see someone; THE ONLY WAY BACK IN THE DALLAS VA WAS for me to start getting the exact SAME tests over!!!! I tried to explain it is all there in the system; So until I see the primary care Doctor in November I go through the EMERGENCY room for care and really waste time and money. I will however be run through the mill again at such an expense. I am not due for any follow up until January 2012; ALL I needed was a prescription refill! I have given blood twice and all must be well because no one has called to give me any results since the end of September.
Now I am not sure why but if the Dallas VA cannot COMMUNICATE with the Connecticut VA the computer system is the first thing that needs to be fixed AGAIN!!! I know it is possible so do it and save money, money money money! So the first thing we should do is connect the dots and STOP wasting money! I am sure there are people skilled enough to do this already working for us. Here is the odd part I guess; Government employees work for us,we pay their salaries, so when I find such mismanagement with people skills I just want to scream! FIRE SOMEONE! This is my company! Oh and there is always the phone as a back up or have records faxed; hmm to complicated I guess!
