Friday, July 11: Dermatologist, TracFone, Sun


Today I woke up at around 7:45 AM and got my breakfast of raisin bran and carried my Yoga stuff and my water to Mike’s. When I got to 
Mike’s, he took a shower and soon after I had to split on the Uber to go to my dermatologist, Dr. Gober. He’s not a Gober. His name 

is Gober. Anyhow, I went there. He saw me pretty quickly and he checked everything out and I passed with flying colors. Nothing to remove fortunately. He did give me a prescription

 for some ointment for the itch on my shoulder. I keep getting. I got lucky I was able to catch the 105 bus to 69th St. terminal which saved me about 25 bucks not taking Uber that was pretty efficient. I must say. Now when 

you do public transportation in Philly, they have notes about all the SEPTA budget cuts coming around the road starting at the end of August if the state doesn’t give them money. so Mike has

 a new phone number for the next two weeks until the SIM card BS resolved itself +1 (267) 887-8995. Anyhow, it’s 3:06 PM and winding down my day in a nice cool AC. Anyhow, 

I left Mike’s and decided I would pick up my itch cream and there was 

a little bit of a line so I’m gonna get to class a little bit later than I like. 911 

emergency is having trouble in Philadelphia and Delaware counties. There’s

 a technical problem so twice I got loud beep on my phone and I got a text message and a phone call from Delaware County thank God I didn’t need 911 today, dear God.I’m gonna blame that on Trump. How about that! Anyhow, it was a useful day overall. I then went to class and I felt pretty good. You know I do modify and that’s just the way things are. I like Miah‘s class. Afterwards, we hung out at the studio and Byron told us about the plan yoga retreat and Cozumel Mexico. That’s an island that you can tan Peninsula. I didn’t know that. This is gonna be definitely much more high-end accommodations plus they’ll be three meals included in the price and it’s family style“ which means it won’t be tiny portions of food like it was in Costa Rica. Yes, it’s more expensive but that’s expected considering it’s at a four star hotel and stuff. It’s gonna be some scuba and two classes a day so that was very interesting

Thursday, July 10: Frustration, Yoga, in July


Hi. Damn glad to meet you out here in the Internet land. Well, today is Thursday and I have an entered the photography contest


and tomorrow is the deadline so I have to do it tonight. Anyhow, I went to the PT today and she read my findings and her

 determination is that There wasn’t much use for me to come to formal PT classes because of that it’s nerve damage not just on some kind of muscle pull or something. That sort

 of sent me in a state of shock. She said to continue to exercise exercises and raise my hands in the air with while lying in bed, etc. I’m going to set up some questions

 for my July 22 appointment to deal with this. I did talk to Mary and my sister Alice about the whole situation. Also got some words from someone else as well. Mike called the phone company 

he works with and apparently they tried to send the SIM card by US mail and it 

got returned or something. Now they’re sending it UPS and it’s going to 

be another two weeks for him getting the SIM card that was really stupid. As I was leaving work, my work app

 stopped working for a minute, but I was fortunately able to sign in. I 

was able to do screenshots of my app in case it’s a problem. Anyway, it’s 3:47 PM. I’m 

heading into the 4 o’clock class my mind a little blown right now. Well, I 

went to the 4 o’clock class and Tina started today which was a nice surprise. I did 

my thing and it was pretty warm but I was in a bit of a mood so I was all 

concentration 100% there. Afterwards, Tina was very encouraging and she

 was encouraging during class, which is really appreciated. I felt like I 

had as a teacher today. So it’s at 5:53 and I feel a lot better. Anyhow, Mary and



 I left the studio and we walked 
back to her place and picked up some food at the Royal Indian for dinner. My target doll was really hot. That’s for damn sure. Hers was not as hot. Anyway, I finally entered my photographs for a photography exhibit at the Sketch club exhibit that coming

 up in early August. We will find out just like last year around July 15, if any of our photos got 

in. I recall last year Mary and I were in Long Beach when we found out about the results of of who got in the exhibit. Anyhow, I put in seven photos for possible entry they could take up the two of a person works. We’ll see what happens after that.

Wednesday, July 9: Superstars Who do Laundry


Good day, boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen and interstellar creatures. Today I got up around 820. Got the Mike’s around 9 AM. 
I started

 the day by going to the check cashing place to get quarters so I could do laundry which might really need to get done today. Got the quarters and then went ahead and put a load of laundry 

in. Mike then had a therapist appointment so I left Mary then texted me and she met me at the good karma café while I was having a coffee and a banana. It’s a really chill place to hang out. 

I like it a lot. The coffee is good too. Anyway, Mary showed up. We talked for a while and then Mike emailed me that the food delivery he ordered showed up. I was slightly panicked because I was afraid they would take the food

 back. Mike had hardly any food left because there was no mom‘s meals Last week and this week. it’s now 12:57 PM I just put his laundry in the dryer. The big news for today is that the trash strike of district Council 33 has ended. They 

agreed upon 3% increases over the next three years. They got a 5% bonus 

earlier. They definitely got less than what they were expecting so I don’t know 

what’s gonna happen but hopefully they’ll vote. Yes on this and 

the strike will end for real. It’s now 1:52 PM. I’m going to my appointment Mike 

food. Was there Rob one of the neighbors in the apartment 

complex and Yoga teacher, carried up the groceries for Mike. That was very

 good. He needed that food. Anyway, I didn’t put the laundry in the



 dryer and ate lunch. Well, I went to my session. ANNETTE went pretty well. 

We talked about the errands I did on Monday and some of the papers

 I dug up such as being tested if I had brain damage back in 2011 I was visiting Alice 

after I left Millville. Anyhow, I got back to Mike’s and

 Coach Mike into exercising and then I did my exercises. I also talked to Alice for 

a bit now it’s 4:44 PM and I’m just getting back to Mary’s. I’ll be going to yoga and Yin class 

this evening. well, I went to Mary so we immediately went to dance 

5:30 PM class. It was a pretty good class. I must say room was pretty hot and humid today. I did my 

modifications, etc. Next was the in class that was pretty extensive. that’s for 

sure.. Well after class, the thunderstorm
 that swept through is still going on and we hung out at studio for as long as we could order food, and we ended up borrowing to umbrellas that were sitting at the studio because it was a torrential downpour. Fortunate caught the bus and picked up our food and washed the law and order episode.
