My review is of the San Diego County Social Workers and the County System as a Whole…read more The social services system within the County of San Diego is, without question, one of the most dysfunctional and disheartening public institutions I have ever had to rely on. The structure in place is completely reprehensive--built on delays, miscommunication, and a lack of urgency that actively harms the people who genuinely need help. Recently, I submitted all the documents requested to have my food stamps reinstated under an emergency situation. Our household's food supply was set to run out in three days or less, and I made this explicitly clear. After turning in the paperwork, I called on Monday to verify everything had been received and to explain that we had an urgent need. Despite that, I was essentially given the runaround. The person I spoke with told me there were additional items required--items that the previous staff member never informed me about. Had I been told initially, those documents would have been submitted over the weekend along with the others. Because of this lack of communication and accountability, no one at the county was able to confirm whether we would receive our food stamp allotment before the weekend. As it stands, my children may end up having nothing to eat until they return to school on Monday morning. The fact that a system designed to prevent hunger can't even guarantee food for children over a weekend--after being notified of the urgency--is absolutely outrageous. This isn't just an inconvenience. It's a failure of basic responsibility and human decency. The county's lack of consideration for my children's well-being and nutritional needs is unacceptable. Families should not be left in limbo because information wasn't properly communicated. Emergencies should be handled within one business day--especially when children's access to food is at stake. San Diego County must confront the painful truth: its social service system does not serve the vulnerable. Instead, it traps people in bureaucratic loops that delay urgent help and create unnecessary suffering. I demand real, meaningful change--communication that is consistent, processing that is timely, and a system that recognizes the real-world consequences of its inaction. No family should ever have to fear a weekend without food because of preventable administrative failures.

The boys were invited to host the Flag Ceremony at a city council meeting. Before the meeting…read morestarted, we were lucky enough to be given a private tour by Deputy Mayor John Mullin. He was very patient with the boys, and was certainly amiable and pleasant to talk to. The grounds of the area were a great space for the boys to play an impromptu game of soccer while waiting for the meeting to start. The inside offices were as expected, and the meeting hall itself looks imposing and official. Not sure there is any reason for me to visit again (since I am not a resident of Poway to begin with). But it was a great introduction to politics to the boys who, hopefully, will become our future policymakers someday.

For Mother's Day every year, the family crowds into a couple of vehicles, we head to an overpriced…read morerestaurant for a "Mother's Day Special" (which is really the regular menu jazzed up with higher prices and maybe a pastel carnation or two for Mom and Grandma), we wait for frackin' ever even though we have a reservation, then are hurried through an overcrowded dining room with hungry kids going bananas and then we empty our pocketbooks and head home. Everyone leaves more exhausted, unnerved and impoverished than when we began. So this year we decided to do something completely different. My Mom heard from a co-worker about the Old Escondido Mother's Day Home Tour. Now I know what your thinking, "SERIOUSLY? A home tour? In ESCONDIDO?! Aren't there GANGS there?! DRUGS?! The MEXICAN MAFIA?!!!" And I'm here to tell you, not only was the Mother's Day Home Tour fun and charming but I didn't even see one drive-by. The 2010 13th Annual Mother's Day Home Tour covered 5 properties in Escondido on 6th and 7th avenue in the Historic District. Most of the homes were built in the 1915s and painstakingly restored to beautiful detail. Volunteer docents from the Historical Society provided intimate details about the architecture, the original inhabitants and interesting stories about each property. $15 a person (really just a donation for the Historical Society) covered the tour and provided a nicely detailed program and refreshments at the last home on the tour in a lovely English Garden setting. All the walking and a few long lines were a bit much for my 80 - something Grandma, but I managed to find street parking nearby and chauffeured her around to the different homes. There were also shuttles available from some classic cars owners who volunteered for the day which included a 1924 Model T Runabout which was a real treat. A lone pedicab entrepreneur also tried to solicit folks for a ride but blasting old skool Jay-Z really didn't entice the garden party set. So if you're looking for something a little different than the average Mother's Day hoopla, take your Mom up to Escondido for the tour and then treat her to some margaritas and Mexican food afterward in the afternoon. Your Mom won't be disappointed and neither will your pocketbook!
