I have started planning for a huge book signing event in my hometown. It will be at the convention center. I am reaching out to find some sponsors to pay for the room. The room holds 160 people. I will have guest speakers, and have several WWII veterans there.

I hope to have a winery come to sell their wine and give away free drinks. I also hope the winery will donate some bottles to give away at the tables.

I had a very hard hair day yesterday. The pain level was at 10 and meds weren’t doing it for me. It has been a battle to even see a doctor. My primary doctor referred me to a orthopedic clinic. He even called them to try to get it going sooner, and no one answered the phone. He had to leave a message.

This delay is uncalled for. I feel that maybe the VA could even have done better.
