It's official

I am a disabled vet.

The actual percentage is croggling, and the effects will be good, and (honestly) a bit life changing.

I am rated 80 percent disabled. I get a pension. If I read it right I also get PX privileges (I can go back onto the Presidio of Monterey again).

I don't know if it gets me schooling (I think I might be able to get some rehab money). I don't know what it gets me by way of tuition breaks in Calif.

I'll have to look into it.

It's a lot to digest.

It will let me get a bike, and so be able to travel to see people this summer (including Marna, in Ottawa; and my dad/sisters in Tenn.)

Then I'll sock the rest away, and put some of it, and my insurance settlement (from my step-father's death) to a new camera.

Then back to school and a frugal life. But putting the GI Bill off for a year will hurt less.

If you happen to wander through the Denver/Boulder area on your way east, give us a shout. I'm sure a dinner gathering could be mounted. (I'm "Jacque" on ML.)

The route will be pondered.
