Friday, August 14: Mike’s, Massage and Yoga

Good day, everybody out there and TV Land and Internet land. Today is Friday and I got up with Mary and she got coffee from the convenience store downstairs. It wasn’t too bad at all actually so we had coffee and then I went to Mike’s and first started doing a little bit of cleaning the usual emptying of the coffee cans, the plastic coffee containers that is and then Mike and I took a walk. We didn’t actually get out till 11 o’clock because I don’t know it’s one thing after another. Oh yeah, some lady from a Survey called they talked for a while ended up. They rejected Mike due to him having cancer in the last 5️⃣ years. The walk was pleasant enough and as we finish the walk, I could feel the humidity starting to kick in. Next thing you know it’s time for me to go to Nick and get my massage that I really needed for my shoulders. They’re really tight. I can only get a 45 minute today so I took that and it was very good. I decided to treat myself to Starbucks before I go shopping at CVS For Mike. well, I got stuff for Mike’s from the CVS. Headed to learn the new passcode for the new snap card. Then it came back to Mike’s. He made an appointment for Monday about his cramps in his stomach and took a shower and now we’re waiting for the infusion nurse to come at three. It’s not three 2:52 PM. well, the 3 o’clock infusion lady didn’t shop as of 3:40 PM when I left Mike’s propped open the window so she can let her in and I left for Lupe’s 4 o’clock 75 minute class. Well, Loopie‘s class was not bad at all. The room is very hot and it was refreshing to listen to Loopie‘s teaching style, which is a little bit different than others. She’s in Philadelphia for two months. She’s teaching a four week class which I don’t think I’m gonna be attending because it’s a little much. It’s every Sunday for four weeks 25 bucks a class. But I’d be open intuitive Mary was. Anyway, we hung out at the studio for a while, showered up and everything like that. Eventually got back to Dorchester picked up a little bit of laundry and then ordered Indian. We started looking at getting me a new backpack cause the one I have now is lost in shape and sagging a little bit. It’s not falling apart, but it is sagging. We’re Indian and we’re gonna watch the movie the terminal with Tom Hanks.

Thursday August 13: Meetings, Mike’s & Yoga

Today is Thursday all day long. I got up at 6:30 AM. Got a quick bite of breakfast and headed on down to ethical Society for the 7 o’clock meeting. It basically was the same people that always go to the meeting I have found. I actually shared for the first time and actually socialized with people which was the first time I really done so since I started going last week. This is a new meeting. Anyway, after that, I went back to the Dorchester picked up my yoga clothes and drinks and headed down to Mike’s I was a little bit late as usual. I came to Mike’s and decided that it was time to do his laundry so I started to do that. Meanwhile, we did go for a walk, which was very pleasant cause it wasn’t hot yet. My right shoulders feeling sore today. I’m not sure why but it’s sore often on. Anyhow, I then went to CVS to pick up my three months prescription. Eventually call the place and get a new therapist. I haven’t done that yet so I need to get on that. Well it’s 3:08 PM. I have to start getting ready to go. I’m going to pick up Mike’s laundry from the dryer. I stepped outside for a minute to do some composing on this blog and to get some outdoor air. It’s warm but it’s got a breeze to it, which makes it a lot more tolerable than otherwise it might be. I hope I can get a nice nap before going to my meeting. I blew it off last Thursday because a week ago we were getting ready to fly out to California, which was last Friday. That was a good move the time to just not go to that meeting, especially since they’re having a business meeting, and that tense the last a while. Was now 3:43 PM I’m at Broad and Walnut right now crossing the street heading to Shelley‘s 4 o’clock 90 minute class. I should get there before 3:50 PM which is good. Well, we both completed Lis‘s classes and 90 minute class as usual. She was very thorough and indecent. It are about 3️⃣ new people in the class today. My shoulders were feeling tired before I even started with both of them feeling some muscle strain. I did OK Mary and I decided not to go to the Dorchester party cause I know I wanted to take a nap after class just before you left the studio. I’m making made an appointment for a massage. Nothing like a good sports massage when you really need it. We then took took a nap and that was pretty glorious. I was really beat. Then I caught the bus right in the nick of time and went to my CODA meeting. I went to the meeting and it was about a measurement. Tonight ended up being the business meeting and there’s a proposal to start a business meeting at 7:45 once a month and just after we ended the meeting, there was a thought of starting our meeting at 8:00 PM, which I would definitely be in favor of. Anyway, I caught an Uber because I missed the bus near Bruce only 10 bucks so it wasn’t too bad. Now I’m about to have some pasta.
