Just got my Arizona Access card!

Now I have health care! Thanks to the ACA changes in Medicaid, I can now go see a doctor and have access to more resources for my PTSD.

It has been a rough start to the ACA, but many like myself are starting to see it work.

Now, I will go through my treatments and then start looking for an in studio job at one of the stations here. I also have been looking at doing some classes at the U of A. You know, to add to the B.A I got.

How have you been doing BTW?

for a small while I feared we would have a nice brush fire to end the year. It looked that way. Thankfully it was put to bed early.

And we might have another scandal in city hall percolating.

one candidate, who lost to another, is now suing the latter for defamation of character.

I just went...

Thankfully it is out of my area of coverage, or voting for that matter.

one if a former union leader, and green as can be. (the elected). The other has been in and out of politics, and happens to be, in my view an opportunist slime ball.

No, this is not the party you think.
