I Got a Dollar

My VA funds finally came through. No guarantees the amount's correct, but at least we can pay our bills now. It is kind of nice to get a bit of a windfall, two months pay all at one time. I'm not sure whether the compensation was simply a result of the problem being fixed, or whether it was due to my persistent phone calls and emails to HR, or maybe it was contacting our congressman, or maybe it was wielding my journalism past - regardless, this girl got paid and now this family can pay their bills. Phew!
