Tuesday, January 6: Insurrection 5️⃣ Years Ago. Dr Nalla

Good day everyone. Today it was five years ago, January 6, 2021 when Trump instigated an insurrection as the 2020 election was being certified.

I remember being at work at home and watching David Pakman report on it live I was mesmerized and just quietly shocked by what was going on. They didn’t arrest the people right away. They

let everyone go and then they chased them all down just for Trump to end up pardoning all the fuckers when he got into office for a second time this past 

January. Anyway, I woke up got dressed headed to Mike’s. Got there before the nurse did the nurse came and then I had to run off to DM Medical to get a blood draw. They said it was the last time I’ll have 

to make a formal visit to the office the rest of the time I’ll be reporting via online app or a phone call. It’s 11:50 AM I’m about to have lunch. Hopefully I’ll get Mike to 

do his exercise before I leave today. I have to leave early because I have an appointment with Dr. Nala where I have to be there by 3:05 PM. I will 

not be doing any yoga today due to this appointment. I had lunch and the occupational therapist showed up and walked in the door and we didn’t know 

she was coming, cause she kept calling Mike’s number fortunately Tony gave her the code to the key, and Mike did some exercises with her. Mike took a nap and then we did. He did some walks


back-and-forth. It’s now 2:37 PM. It’s pretty cloudy out here and I’m good and ready to Uber out to this appointment because I don’t feel like 

walking 20 minutes to my appointment. I’m gonna try to sign in and sign out not as early if I could help myself. I’m going to see Dr. Nylla about

my shoulder. We really had to work hard to get this appointment. well, I went with LIFT to wait and save and the driver was picked up very quickly and it was only a six minute wait. I left around 2:50 PM and 

signed out. I’m heading to Dr. Nylla‘s appointment. They want you there at 3:05 I’ll get there at 3:05 PM approximately. I’m gonna meet 

Mary there as well. We’re gonna go over my left shoulder and maybe both shoulders while we’re at it. I arrived at 3:02 PM and I had to check in with the redundancy machine a.k.a. they’re checking in computer. This 

even though I did the pre-check on my phone. The redundancy is pretty amazing. Mary isn’t quite here yet, but my appointment isn’t until 3:20 PM, but they want you to come 10 minutes early so I can look at the walls and play with my phone and shit. I’m good at that. I saw Dr. Nala today. Took off my shirts and showed her the winging that’s going on on my left side. We had a very frank discussion

about the whole thing. She’s going refer me to neurology. In the meantime, she’s gonna give me gabapentin for the nerve pain at night and I am scheduled

for a EMG. The closest appointment was March 9 at 8 AM. She was a useless schedule the rehab so I have to call the rehab place the same place I went to before and get that scheduled. She didn’t see any needfor an MRI or a or an ultrasound. But we are in there for a while and it’s just the same thing it’s gonna be a slug. Mary joined me and asked their own questions. So now I have to schedule for neurology 

which you have to call because there’s no available appointments on the system rehab which is available very soon, but I don’t know when the schedule an EMG is scheduled for Monday, 

March 9 at 8 AM. We left Jefferson and walked to Mom’s market at 11th and Ludlow. Got some burgers, salsa and sprouts for tonight‘s dinner. We then went to CVS picked up a couple items and then went back to 

the Dorchester. Why were we there? We decide to have dinner early because we didn’t have yoga and I also have choir practice at 7:00 PM. 🍔 . I then got notice my prescription was ready

at the CVS on 15th and Spruce so I had to leave Mary’s early at around 6:30 PM to go walk CVS and then walk back to resurrection. So succeed in doing that and got here around 6:55 PM here at the

resurrection Church. I also got notification in my items mailed to Hurley Court. Made it. I just wanted to have some kind of food so that worked out. Today, West cold but not frigid 

cold like it has been it’s starting to warm up a little bit. But my chiropractor was pretty good today. I must say. Dan was in a good mood and mostly everybody showed up. It was held at the resurrection church, which is at 17th and Sansom, which is a lot closer. Generally, it’s a good thing but today I had to pick up my script for the gabapentin for nerve pain. Tonight, I’m going to 

take it and see how it does.

Thursday, June 9: Dropping off Photo @ DVAA. 1 st Public Hearing of the January 6 committee

Today I got up and had to get going and drop off my work I decided I’d ride my bike today down there. ‘Cause it’s South Philly. I 

haven’t ridden through South Philly before and I’ve really looking forward to it. I got off to a later start than I wanted but I did get my breakfast in before I left. 

I have to realize that the estimated time to get anywhere with on the bikeis going to  be a lot higher than what Google maps says I do a lot of stopping between

 lights and figuring out exactly where Google maps takes me because it doesn’t shout out the instructions like it does with when you drive. Well I arrived 

at Da Vinci Art Alliance late but it didn’t seem to matter cause they were 2 women they’re putting the gallery assistant I just dropped 

off the photo and I really wasn’t a interview. I hung out at the gallery for a while. I then sat on the bench decide I need to make a A decision on how I’m getting

 to DC on Saturday or Friday. So I looked up the rental cars again because I didn’t make a decision and the round card price just completely jumped at least 40%. I then 

decided I’d go back to Amtrak and go to Baltimore. I got really lucky there 

were a couple seats remaining for Baltimore. I got round-trip for 40 bucks.
Which is an absolute steal in the world of Amtrak. I consider myself really lucky I called my friend and told her about it. She told me your sister couldn’t come

 so I was able to stay over which stayed which saved money on feeling

 with the hostile/hotel. That was really good news so I then rode my bike back home

 but first I stopped at the old Zaxby’s which is called something 

else like Bluemoon or something. I hung out there for a while and thought about 

going to Mike’s but I changed my mind &decided I would hang out there and people watch etc. etc. I then went home and then


 when I got home I ate and decided to go to a meeting in Fairmount

 at 6:30. I took the bus and train. I decided that point they would go 630 meeting and 

I went there wasn’t that many people in there and it was pretty good. I 

recognize the few people so that was good. I think the bus back home and had dinner  decided to do 2 weeks worth of laundry. I just 



threw everything in the same batch because I didn’t really have anything to wear practically so that’s what I did. I watch the January 6 committee hearing tonight. It started at 8 PM and ended at 10 PM. It was well laid to help and very organized. They had Liz Janie doing a lot of speaking which was a really good move. She’s a very conservative Republican who is one of the few Republicans to stand up to Trump and his movement to delegitimize voting and the 2020 election in general.. It got pretty good reviews so far. The next hearing is in the morning at 10 AM on Monday. I think they have total of five or six televised hearings before it’s all over.
