I went to the Veterans Service Agency in Little Italy... when I first walked up the place looked a little sketchy, it was right next to the train tracks, the area smelled like urine, and the building was looking old and not kept up. Inside was a lot better. After getting certified copies of my DD-214, I made my way to a little restaurant and had my first cannoli, total cost $3.75. After watching Cake Boss on TLC I wanted to try one. I wish I remember the name of the restaurant. I will be back in Little Italy on Saturday, I will have to see. So for my first cannoli, I must say it was very good, rich, smooth and creamy. It will be a nice treat every once and a while.
When I got home I started the task of starting my unemployment claim. 70 calls to the EDD to get a standard recording or one that gives you hope until the end where it says due to the high call volume please call again....
So first thing tomorrow morning will be a phone call to the EDD in hopes that I get through.
Monday I went to the beach, it was kinda nice not having to answer phones, check my email, file papers, copy, fax, type and all the day to day activities of working in an office.
Tuesday I did try for a short ride around Fiesta Island. I was not trying to push it or try to hard. My hip is still sore from dislocating it a couple weeks ago.
With everything I am going to take it one day at a time, go with the flow, and really try to enjoy my time off
