Saturday, December 30: Sad News about My Brother Mike

I woke at the Dorchester this morning had breakfast and that delicious

 coffee. Mary and I talked for a little while and then I had it back home to drop off my yoga

 clothing, do laundry, and put away all the food that I had ordered 
from Amazon. I then took a short nap and headed back to the 90 minute class. It was at 3 PM. I thought I had saved bits of this blog but I guess I didn’t. So I’m doing it over again. Anyway, I went to the class and it 

was really warm in the room. It was a 90 minute class and Miah was teaching it would be our last class until she comes back from India next month.  She’s leaving Sunday and coming

 back in the end of January. Well, I got really bad news just before I went to yoga class. My brother was rushed to the emergency room for fainting and disorientation. Found out that he has a 

tumor brain tumor. I don’t know anything else except that they’re gonna do an MRI and found out he wasn’t allowed to eat for 24 hours. I was in touch with my sister and my other brothers throughout the

 day. Mary first told Alice. Needless to say, it’s very upsetting and I’m very distracted. I was spending the rest of the day distracted. Yoga was good for putting



 things in the balance. Anyhow, went back to Mary suite did some takeout

 and then I just wanted to go home to take a nap cause I think I’m coming

 down with something. Anyway, the next week gonna be very busy. I think one of these days I just just go to Mike’s and go 
straight home sleep. Yep mate got to sleep a little after 10 PM and I am taking a Vinyasa class in South Philly after I pick up the rental car here’s the end of this year and next year coming up

Friday, December 29: Mild and Sunny. Payments MadeπŸ’΄


This morning, the alarm went off at 7:19 AM which is later than 6:45 AM, but earlier than 7:48 AM. That’s the time I set when I 

know I’m exhausted and I just need to roll out of bed but just rolling out of bed and leaving is not possible especially when I wanna have breakfast and 

packed my Yoga stuff. Anyway, Pat collected his rent and we hung out for a while. That was cool after that I caught the train with no incident and paid all my payments and 

debts off that I could pay off so I could find out how much money I have. I got the Mike’s and fetch him Pepsi and a thing of cookies. I gotta get some money out 

from the bank cause I have nothing in my wallet. My phone needs to charge and it’s 9:51 A.m. well, the rest of the day Mike progressively felt worse and worse because his medication was rubbing
him the wrong way. I was going to do a big errand for him but he didn’t need the errand, so what happened was I ended up trying to learn TikTok, and how to put a background 

and, it was so much BS I just couldn’t get it maybe I’m getting old but I basically need somebody to hold my hand because all the tutorials are more advanced

 or they just don’t get to the point. I then talk to my sister for about an hour. She

 sent me a poem that was really good and we talked about that 

another issues. She’s hopefully going to get back to me sometime next month about when I can go over.  Mike in the last minute had to switch pharmacies cause 

Rite Aid closed at 17th St. on January 11. So I may have to go to the pharmacy at eighth and Catherine After yoga with two mats in my back 
hand. 

Maybe instead I’ll go to Mary drop off the  mats and then step in fetch it since 

it’s a nice day out won’t be too bad. I’m going to the 4 o’clock class

. I’m running a little late but I won’t be late for class. It’s just I’m gonna have

 to hustle like a , crazy man My eclass was very good and I got some a 

tip or two about my shoulder and I did remember to get the mats. I stayed at the studio

 for a while cause I just needed to rest and my body aches. I have to go 

down to the Rite Aid at broad Snyder and get scripts for Mike Anyhow, I got to Mary’s and we just relaxed for a while and that was really cool. I enjoyed that. It’s about an hour. We relax
, and I really needed to do that before I went off trucking down to West South Philly for Mike Scripps. Unfortunately the 17th Bus shows up right near the Dorchester 
so I just caught that and walked four blocks. I could’ve taken the 79 I just didn’t think of it but I got there and there’s only one person in front of 

me right after I left there’s about six people running to get scripts, very lucky. Anyhow, Mary asked me to get some Lysol wipes to cleaner yoga mats, so I just walked to CVS and believe 

it or not. The wipes are under lock and key the Lysol wraps for Cleaning 

and we do live in it dystopia don’t we? It’s not 847 going to pick up 



Indian food tonight. I had enough time to go back to Mary’s and drop off the Lysol wraps.

 It’s now 8:57 PM. My phone is really low with power.
