January 6: Foggy to Frigid in 24 Hours

Well I got up pretty early able to read some content on the Internet this morning. I postedthem on Facebook. 

Look at THIS

AS YOU SEE FROM THE GRAPHIC FROM TODAY'S PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, THE TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE MIDST OF PLUMMETING

At Saxby's this morning

ALMOST 50° IN 24 HOURS!!

On another Monday morning note, 

I singed my middle finger today

Emily, the dog decided overnight to PEE all over the kitchen floor so of course I stepped in it and had to clean it up. I then had to find some other pair of socks in the house so I could go to work. Needless to say I didn't come in the work in the best of all moods. I even got condescended to as well. Must breeze deep.

Had to borrow socks

 It's 1030 time to reset bye for now. Well I managed to seems my middle finger in the printer as I was on jamming it three times around 11:30 AM. It was very painful but it's a little better now

Oh as of 1:06 pm the cold is upon us. It went from  40° to 37° as of this time With a day did calmed down a bit which was good. Ok, i'm going home to drink some

Dean Cooked Chickent

juice  then I'm going to an anniversary party on W Girard Ave. I'm going to hang with the in crowd baby!! I am taking the 40 bus to Gerard where I'm catching the 15 probably and it is

already cold at 6:42 PM If I'm not completely

Waiting 

wiped out, my friend Wes said he wanted to treat me to dinner in Overbrook.then plan to go to  to check on the dog.

Well I want to shift these had a really good vegetarian taco. I was the first one to show up and moments later the whole crew showed up and everybody is really feeling festive is a good time and then I left around 756 and I called the trolley right on time the 15 try that is and then the 64 showed up about 2 minutes later. Between the time I arrived at the taco place

on the 27th Gerard and the time  I caught the 64 bus at Gerard and Belmont, the temperature must've dropped at least 15°. It's 32 out but the winds chicken now and it feels

much colder than 32° at 8:18 PM. I timed the SEPTA perfectly!  I waited two minutes  for the 15 trolley  at  27th and Girard. At Girard  & Belmont I probably waited 3 minutes for the 64 bus!!!

I will be there according to Google maps at 8:24 PM. I was there at 8:27 pm and found out the Wes assumed SEPTA would be slow and I would not be there by 8:30. I waited at the Abyssinia at 45th and Locust and watch the "Bowl Championship game. Auburn

was playing Florida State and the game just started. I heard that Auburn was favored. Well, Florida State won in the last minute 34-31 Wes came and we ordered 3 combo platters. They were good  and so was the conversation. I  heard things

I did not realize and I said some stuff as well. After dinner, we went back to my place so I could take a show in my WARM appartment! I got a new set of  duds and layered-up! The temp was 21 at 11 pm. I

was dropped off at the Sherwood Ave place. Once there, I walked Emily and let her out in the backyard. I realized that I LOST my charging chord!! :(.
I am not sure how I lose a BRIGHT orange 5 food

chord, but alas I did. This explains why there is currently a lack

of photos. The only postive is that I make less typo's and syntax errors when I type this blog instead

of speaking into my phone and let Siri type for me.

Yes indeed bye

Hot hot hot October 5

My Block Captain

Saturday what a warm day! I had to turn my air conditioning after getting back from the meeting. I met a friend and her dog at the green line and then we took a stroll around the neighborhood I ran into two people I knew. One of the folk named Chris has a friend who happens to be my block captain. She states that shetried to use fake speed bumps and some were not sold on the idea.

 I am not sure if this program still is around. Maybe I will ask the UC Listserv about this. They have many a know-it-alls who might know something.While talking to the activist, my friend and her dog were not amused.

Green Line at 43rd and Baltimore

She states had to meet her husband and do alot.  I then went home to make plans for the rest of the day.Pat wanted me to assist him with his pond but I must have started a move to have speed bumps put on 45th and 44th where they intersect Sansom Street. I was skeptical but she told me the process
