Thursday, August 7: New “Blog” App. Mike, Yoga, CODA

Good day everybody I was a normal wake up in Rittenhouse Square today. I’m trying out a new blog. This is the one called “BLOGG.“ Anyway, I can publish the zoom but I can’t adjust. I cannot adjust the size of the photographs. The other one I tried cost 10 bucks but the photographs don’t come out so I’m gonna just call that paying for a chicken cheesesteak and not liking it. Anyway, Mike’s Nurse came over today. That was really nice of her to come over. I had my protein shake my lunch, etc. I’m a little bit tired, but it is Thursday. I also have CODA later on today. Well Mike’s Mom’s Meals came on time before I even before even 2:00 PM which is great. So I’m going to CVS now to get Mike a liter of pet to all these quarters that he gave me you know the good old CVS at 15th and Spruce, where I pick up my Scripps. It’s not easy being green. Anyway, both of my big payments for the flight and the accommodations came through so I shouldn’t be charged interest on them for another three weeks so that’s something. It’s nice outside not that hot out but I’m sure it’ll be hot in the studio because it is a little humid but it’s not that Hot. That’s how it works. I’m kind of tired. I slept well, but I went to bed late so I think maybe I’ll try to crash early or something I don’t know, but I’m looking forward to yoga. Well, I did an errand for Mike at CVS and did two more walks in the apartment. He seems too motivated to do the walks which is cool. Humidity dropped a little bit. Nice little breeze. It’s 3:41 PM. I’m heading in for 4 o’clock yoga, drinking an icy beforehand to get some Thurston. My Amazon order came in Which included grapes more Gatorade, and some yogurt. Well my blog is just going to look different and this is the post pandemic world where everything is monetized. I was lucky to have a good blog Program that could size the pictures by your touchscreen. But none of the others do that. I declined to join the one that’s $29 because I’ve already wasted $10 on one that doesn’t work, but this one was just 20 bucks and seems to work. Well, loopy taught the 4 o’clock class and that was a pretty rigorous class. It wasn’t too hot, but my arms got tired as they do when I straighten them up for a while, especially during the first 2 sets. Loopie will be teaching two more weeks and then she’s going back to Mexico where we will meet her in January. Mary and I then relax in the studio for a while and then we left to go chow down on some veggie burgers that were cooked up very nicely. They were quite hearty special with all the fixings and the good bread for the rolls that’s for sure. 8 o’clock rolled around and I called Uber for them to take me to the CODA meeting since there was no way I was gonna get there on time. I took the bus actually it was lifted that took me because they were 3 dollars cheaper for the same ride.

Wednesday, August 6: blogger app broken

Well, I’m reading this blog, but I don’t know if it’s gonna ever come out because it seems to be the software is faulty and there’s not much I can do about it. I got an error message that said. “ The requested feed is depreciated.” In other words, it won’t publish my blog. It’ll just bounce me back. So I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do here. I’m a little bit too tired to deal with it today, but I guess what I’ll do is. I’ll make everything a pending message and hope this guy will figure out how to fix his blog. I wrote to him twice so maybe<;a couple days of faulty blogging. Anyway, Tony came over and Mike did better in his exercise and was able to go up steps today so that was progress. went to see the Apple genius bar they were able to solve my problem with my music turning on with my headphones, they said it was the adapter they did demonstrate by sticking The AirPod in the phone in the phone didn’t turn on. So what I’m doing for my block post from now on putting them on off-line post because when you try to do it online, it says there’s a problem. Anyhow, time to pretend that the blog works. There’s a pretty uneventful day. It was cloudy and mild not too hot a little bit humid though. I checked the pricing of the drink we had last night and it’s the best seller but it’s almost $70 $69 for the berry drink to order by the case. I suppose I could afforded it if I just budget it differently. Anyhow, today’s our late day for Yoga cause we have yin so if they don’t fix it, they may have to find another avenue to work Blogger. I’m gonna give this guy about 3 to 4 days to respond to me. See if he’s going update the app. Well, I downloaded two other blog apps and two of them charge money so we’ll see what goes on there. Anyhow, I went to 5:30 PM yoga and yin afterwards. 530 class was good but very challenging. The room was pretty hot, but was able to lift up my arms, more than usual, but by the end of class, my arms were very tired. The in class concentrated on the shoulder, which was let’s say pretty interesting. I must say I did the best I could. I did OK but again my arms were pretty tired.

We then walked home. Ordered Indian from Royal Indian and they have new containers which I think have less food in them. We’re not sure but that’s a sneaky suspicion we have. We then watched some 2 episodes of Law and order.

Tuesday, August 5: Mike’s,Mexico trip Planning

Good morning everybody this is Mark Krull reporting. I got up showed up to Mike’s a little bit late and We started the exercise that Tony
recommended. Tony recommended he to walk back-and-forth into his apartment outside at eight times a day. Otherwise he’s not going to be able to ever leave his apartment because he won’t 

be able to go down and up his steps to get out. It is concerning actually. Both his knees are acting up and are weak anyhow Betsey came over for the first time in months and we went out for pizza slice and then went back to Mike because he was napping as he she came over. I was literally going to the drugstore there. She was so got a slice and then went to the alternative drugstore and then we hung out with Mike. Then the nurse Nichole came in. 

Monday August 4: Millbourne to Philly

This morning I woke up in good old Melbourne Pennsylvania got up around 8:05 AM. I knew I was gonna be late, but I wasn’t 


eating any breakfast at home because I didn’t have any thing prepared to eat. My cupboard is pretty bar, but it’s just 

as well cause I haven’t been home much between my trips and shit. Anyway, I will have to do an Amazon order delivered to my house at some point over 

the next month. Next two weeks I’ll be gallivanting somewhere on a Sunday. Anyhow, I got the Mike’s the woman who came on Sunday didn’t 

do that much and showed up late. Mike didn’t seem that satisfied but at least
someone showed up. I then did a little

 bit of cleanup. Had a makeup breakfast and then had an appointment with my nutritionist. Yes, I’m an old fart. I have a nutritionist. Yes, I’m an 

active senior and a nutritionist is needed. No she gave me some good advicebasically and we rescheduled ourselves for October 20 at 10 AM. Anyhow, the latest thing of my phone is the 

podcast will start playing without me touching it. It’ll just start playing this one happened to play something about

 Penhurst. Then it started off with this site. I signed off with years ago called 10% happier. Now that’s starting 

to play. Well, I took care of it by Going to the Apple Store and they 

gave me an appointment for 4 o’clock, but I told him I had a yoga class and 

then they said well you can chat so I chatted. They had me turn off

 a particular setting and I thought that would work but it still kept happening

 so I deleted it deleted the podcast app and put it back on and that helped out a lot. What happens now is on the music app sometimes it’ll start playing whatever I last played without me turning it on, but that usually resolve itself,  
 but it doesn’t have a setting for me to turn off so oh well. Tony then came over after I got back from the App Store. Mike could not get up one stair with his 

good leg. Tony warned him if he can’t leave for doctors appointments that’s gonna be a big problem and I agree with them. He really can’t leave the house cause he can’t go down
 steps or up steps. Tony told him he has toget up and do his exercises every hour for eight hours. That’s gonna be very hard for Mike to do we’ll see. I then next went to Yoga. Class was good. Brian thought of very intense classes as usual and I did OK even though I was a little stiff. Afterwards we hung out at the studio and then we took our samosas and they were very very good. We watched   Law & Order.
