I really would like to
write these posts in the morning, soon after rising, but in fact I
have been just too busy. I know that sounds pretty presumptuous but
it's been true the last week or so and it looks like it's going to be
this way for some time to come. Yesterday I did URS as the blog
states. Today, was kind of more of the same. It seems I can only do
one major item a day particularly if have to do that in person. Most
of my day is spent in waiting and travel time and that's cool what
else may going to do?
I really want to be able
to do this over the phone Using“MySSA or something like that. Of
course when you go to the website you don't get a human being you get
some just the program with the voice that sort of auction through the
system if you have a username and password, which I do and then I
don't. I do not remember but at one time I have made contact with
Social Security Administration and set myself up with a password and
a username. But for the life of the air cannot remember it now, the
system does but the system is not going to tell me. I tried and I
tried to get a human being who could actually help me through the
cyber maze or to get the system to send me an encrypted message with
what I need to do to get into My Social Security. The
system kind of sets up your account and will actually send you what
you need to set up a new password and username but it's not a quick
email to your email account it's a hard copy letter that will be
mailed to you the next 5 to 10 days and if you're sweating bullets
trying to get into your system right now and you've triggered this
whole name replacement sequence You don't have time to wait days for
snail mail to crawl into your mailbox. You need to get going now. So
with my frustration level high because if I don't get this done by
the 15th
the federal government's ability to dump money into my checking
account will be moved back one month. And I really want to get my SSA
funding and my state funding synced and I want to have them to begin
doing this as of September's payment. I figure the only way I was
going to bring this about was to go in to SSA and look pathetic
enough they will do what it takes to get rid of me.
I
of course went to RIDEUTA.com and dutifully put in my ending point
AND starting point and hit return. The Internet then barfed up
aSolution which was almost an anti-solution. I would actually have to
go to the IHC station And take the big train ( Front Runner) get off
at the next stop then roll to SSA.
I
do not fear not Being able to find this building, I do really poorly
at directions and following them. I don't have faith The Person or
thing Who put the directions together. What I truly fear is not
having enough power in my chair to do all I needed to do. But today I
have the power and the well. Today I did exactly what the printed
document I had my consent to do and soon I was at SSA. I went and got
a number and waited and waited. This is okay you expected to wait At
Social Security.There's a whole room waiting and I was no better than
anyone Of them. I started getting little uneasy however when I
started seeing people arrived after me being served and leaving. But
in the process you have to fill out information on a computer when
you get there and somehow it assigned due to whoever assists you.
You
can imagine chagrin when I was finally called and found myself in a
room with my agent, who was totally blind. She had a sister device in
the form of a woman. Again I'm not saying that one person couldn't do
my case I was just saying I sure want to make sure that my payments
got deposited to the right place. But some I have full faith in my
blind SSA agent. Not only did she Redirect my direct deposit to my
checking account but she also started me on the process to access my
My SSA.com account. It was a great experience—granted a little long
but I got what I needed done.
So
today was a good day, and today ended a good week. I got two of the
major issues which it is freaking me out. Next week begins a whole
new challenge.
