BINGO!


Yes, DAV #85 does play bingo, Saturday mornings and Monday evenings.

OK - so to keep in the theme - you Michael - are a real card!

Our Fire Department has bingo one night a week. I don't know HOW - anyone
can sit for that length of time! Man oh man - my butt would be sore as
hell.
I work it and I sit in a leather chair and even at that - I have a time
of
it sitting that long. I have to get up several times just to keep my butt
from going numb.

Lou, my sense of humor is real, and it has served me well over the
last six years as my job disappeared, my health failed, and I was
declared 100% disabled. Without it, I probably wouldn't still be here.

As far as working the Bingo games, I haven't been well enough, but I
do some other things for the group. I know what you mean about sitting.
I have circulation problems in my legs I can't stand very long, and I
can't sit very long. It drives other people crazy, but what can you do?

I was called up for Jury duty recently. The summons state that they
required a letter from your doctor to be excused, or that you are 65 or
older. My VA doctor refused to sign, because I wasn't scheduled to be in
the hospital on that day.

I dragged myself to the courthouse before daylight, where the clerk
told me, "Oh, you only need to show us papers that you are 100% disabled
before the day you are to appear, and you are excused for life!" I was
excused about lunchtime, after countless trips around the waiting room,
and trips to the rest room, because of the high blood pressure medicine,
and diuretics. What a strange day.
