Well, okay, there is that.

The phone man kept coming and going.  Never did need access.  He has been gone for a bit.  So I checked.  It works!  Now to call to find out about the bill.  Since August, would be nice to have it cleared.

Further, a note from ssa sent specifically pertaining to the event.  Called in and spoke with a woman who did know.  The other call was a complete waste?  The data was ignored.  I am told that the information has been applied and between five and ten days I will receive the backcheck.  Then regular payments until the review is completed.  Well, as we probably know, from then on.

What a day.  I am well and truly done.  A bit more, a call to check on things... the bill, then a bit of coming down so as to sleep in a few hours.  Two or three, never can be certain.  Oh, and laundry.  Yeah.  Crash, it's coming.  Later.  No, good night.  Just thinking, it all seems to work out when it needn't.  Oh well.
