Sunday, August 9: Taking NJ Transit to Millville

I woke up even before the alarm and cited to sleep in till about 9:30 8:30 AM. I then had breakfast just basically cereal and coffee. I then watched some Lewis black with his girlfriend

 before the  andemic because nobody’s  earing a mask and there’s an audience.
 I will come in about the girlfriend but I will father. Anyway I 

 anted to make sure I didn’t miss the 313 bus again like I did last week. This time I knew was @ 10th & Filbert bus Station. I got to the bus station and they couldn’t let you in the building you 

 ave to catch the bus from outside the building so I just use my  Zone 9 ticket & and the bus driver actually took the ticket. Every other time I took the bus they just waved 

 t me and I kept the ticket. So basically how we used to take it. No use wasting it. Anyway I got on the bus and Harrison quibbling going on on the 
 bus and a whole bunch of people came on. Mostly live sitting on the left 
 side of the bus I tried to stay socially distant but it’s kind of hard with this 

 big group of people it’ll be on video. Well I did eventually arrive in Millville 

 round 12:30 PM. Do you want to Pine Street out to Ferguson Court. We double check the paperwork signed the 

 aperwork and then I was treated you some lunch. After lunch we talk

 for a moment of time and then went to Starbucks I got a coffee and she got a mint cream 

 Frappuccino or some sort. It was take out only as per the coronavirus/COVID-19. The

 week wasn’t that long. I got a small coffee and a large cup it was fairly weak 

 nough for me to drink but it was decent. I still like my super coffee Starbucks 

 ess bitter. After that drove to the bus stop on Harrison Street and Route 47. It’s pretty 

 warm out. Caught the bus talked on the phone etc. A sudden rain storm came 

 hrough for about 15 minutes then after that he got really sunny pretty quickly.. I took 



 he bus all the way through Philly past the Camden Walter Rand Transportation  Center.

 That got me home quicker since Pako runs only every hour on Sundays. I arrived at the

 bus station. The Greyhound station fortunately had the restrooms open 

 ecause I really had to go with all the caffeine I drink today. I saw a bus to LA and 

 art of me had a quick fantasy of just hopping on it saying later gators but

 obviously didn’t do that. I got to the Milburn Station at 5:38 PM I’m being picked

 up at 6 PM to go buy a covered trashcan to keep the rodents at Bay. We were first went to Bed Bath and 
 Beyond but that was closed in Wynnewood. So we decided to hit the target on City Line Avenue since

 we were fairly close by and the sun was still out. I know I need a trashcan so I  proceeded. Went to target and the shelf looked pretty empty but they had these 

 lastic trash cans that were gray colored and had lids that locked on top so that’s what I needed and we both got some trash cans. After that we went on a walk in Upper 

 Darby across Market Street pretty close to 69th St.. It’s the first time I actually walked around the neighborhoods 
nearby. It was very interesting 
 or sure. I  Cut short the walk since it was getting dark and I didn’t want to be getting home till after dark but it’s the day. And then came home made some pasta ate the entire thing read a book watch YouTube videos. I basically got most of what I wanted to get done done today. So that’s good

Sunday, August 2: A Trip to Millville

I got up really early and then I forgot why I got up early was to go to the zoom AA meeting. I was really tired after I ate and took another nap. I checked in renting a car but that was gonna be a big ass hassle and overpriced. So I settled for the bus. I thought I’d catch the 313 bus but it ended up they told me to go to the wrong location. I went to 11th St. and the the bus stop at the Greyhound bus terminal at Chatham Filbert Soll eye have to wait another 45 minutes for the next bus which was the 408. I got on the bus and was relieved that they had air-conditioning it was very delightful I must say. I worked on my previous blog post things and brought my backpack with all the paperwork I needed to take care of my business today. I arrived in Millville around 1:35 PM. Hello well, I arrived at Banh street. Got a another bag of clothes or food from back in to Hunter days. We drove out to Ferguson Court and went over the papers page by page. Everything checked out I signed everything. We did have some homemade chicken soup she made in a large stock pot. She had made it and it was homemade it was very good. I caught the bus with couple minutes to spare and then went to the the bus station in Camden and boarding on the Pasco. On the weekends Petco is only running every hour I had not known that they are skipping a few stops. Obviously it’s due to COVID-19. I finally arrived home and prepare dinner and start eating it. I got so damn tired that I just took a three hour nap and then finished my dinner. I then talked on the phone and dad this weekend upon farewell.

Tuesday, July 7: Dogs, Work & Visiting a Friend

I set my alarm early so I could get up eat and runoff to West Philadelphia to walk said mutts. It was a lot less boiling hot this morning than it was yesterday morning when I was reaching 90° first thing 

 n the morning. I took care of the dogs and took the 64 to the EL back home. From there I started work and had assignment to figure  out new referrals that people are making

 now that the state has eased up on COVID restrictions. The office was going to close open up on July 13 but they have moved it back since the number of cases shot up in Pennsylvania today. New Jersey is making people have to quarantine from 

 elaware but not from PA as of yet. so apparently states are keeping other states visitors from coming unless you want to hang out and do nothing for two weeks. I think a valid negative test ought to be good cover but 

  lot of people are getting tested I suppose I don’t know many people who’ve gotten tested but then again I have not asked many people. I slog through the workday. I also 
signed up for the new VPN network.

 I hadn’t signed up for the first one so things got very confusing for a 

 ood chunk of the day trying to call help and get help with the VPN. Email 

 nstructions told me I was next in line to sign up for the VP had. Pat 

 idn’t work today we went to the Wissahickon. One day I’ll play hooky and go with

 them but I just took off yesterday and I’m leaving early tomorrow so really not a good idea. 

  have an appointment tomorrow I have the retirement counselor the following day over the phone. And then 

 eaded on down to New Jersey via the EL the Petco and then the route for four of us. This bus does take me pretty close here in 
 Merchantville New Jersey which is part of Pennsauken Township. The bus left on time you couldn’t buy your tickets with a human being you had to 

 uy it through the machine and only one of them was working. Fortunately there 

 as not  a long line.  The area she lives is very nice.  
We took a 4 mile walk around and I got pretty warmed up. It’s been a while since I walked with somebody as fast as her. Larry walks pretty fast but he doesn’t walk 4 miles at a clip. We’re ordering Indian takeout. We ordered the 

 akeout and her meal was hotter than mine even though mine said extra spicy by the symbol of a hot pepper and hers didn’t. Mine was really good I enjoyed it. Hers was tasty and very very spicy. I Decided to find out when the 

 uses are running and realized that one bus was running in about seven minutes and the other one is running at eight and after that it wouldn’t be any buses till God knows when. So, we jumped 

 ut in her car and she drop me off to catch the 409. Well I missed the 409 and fuck the 404. The 404 does run another hour and that’s what I think I looked at but it’s just as well because I have the animals to feed. We hung

 out and enjoyed the food was nice to see her again after many months. The house she lives in is very nice and it’s very  Decided to find out when the buses are running
