Israel and Hamas. Rather than to seek peace option, Israel has chosen to go forward with their plan to fire upon Gaza in an effort to "drive out Hamas". Many, including some Israeli citizens have demonstrated and called for a cease-fire to work on a solution. The latest skirmish is from an attack Hamas made on Israel. However, it should be noted that for than 50 years the Palestinians in total have been under a heavy occupation by Israel--with Israel making unrecognized settlements in lands considered to belong to the Palestinians. In my opinion, it is a total mess over there. I pray and hope for a peaceful solution.

Medicare Annual Enrollment Period. Okay, by now I know everybody has heard that this is the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period. It goes from October 15 - December 7, 2023. The official Medicare site is: Medicare.gov. There are a lot of commercials and people who will be calling you on your house and cell phone. I caution you that should not be giving out your information to everyone calling on your phone. The safest thing to do is to make the call to your provider and visit the office site so that you can get the best information.
