Wednesday, April 9: Trade War Paused. Yoga🥶

Well, I was writing my blog and then I got distracted and this blog will just erase everything if you let it sit out there without saving.


I got up this morning. It was extremely cold about 30° outside. Taking a bus isn’t much of an option so I just walked the entire way which 



is what I usually do. Got the Mike did a little bit of cleaning. We talked for a bit. I looked at TikTok videos. I then went out and got him his Scripps while he was seeing his therapist. Anyhow, Trump’s 

tariffs officially started today and China reciprocated by putting a big tariff on the United States. Basically everything coming from China such as iPhones will see 104% price increase due to the amount of tariffs. It’s just

 goddamn insane. It’s not about 2 PM today and Trump signaled a 90 day pause in all tariffs on all countries except China. Now, of course the
stock market jumped 2000 points because of course it would because this markets are against tariffs!!!! It’s stupid 

stock manipulation and Trump “solving“ a problem he created on his 

own no way to run a country much less a department store. Wow, big news 

out of Yoga world. Linda won’t be teaching in and she will be teaching
 Reiki classes very soon. Now it’s time for my appointment it’s 2:00 PM. Well, it’s 3 PM right now. Left my 

appointment which went pretty well. We talked about my dream of not 

knowing my lines in a 3️⃣ plays. Inclusion was that I think I feel like I’m 

procrastinating through things and not being proactive a vague feeling

 of anxiety and a little bit of dread when I dream. Anyway, it’s still sunny outside

 very nice. Well, Mike’s groceries came in from Amazon. They were waiting outside when I got in. However his mom’s meals didn’t come as of 4 PM when I left his place today. Well, 

I ended up Going to the 5:30 PM class. It was well attended. Dan taught

 the class. After that was the second the last class that Linda will be teaching 

then HYP will break the class up with Mia and HanaLea

 after next week. So changes are a foot that’s for sure. anyhow, my financial people

@ UBS that handle my life savings sent me their opinion and thoughts of the 
God forsaken trade war that’s going on right now. Right now it’s 8:17 PM. We gotta order dinner pretty soon. I couldn’t get the link to the document but I did ear hustle and hear about this place in France called Plum Village. It’s a meditation center. Oh sorry people talking about Ram Das as well. Just a couple of talking to Linda

Monday, February 17: Cold 🥶 Food Errands

Today I woke up pretty tired cause I was up past my bedtime. It was worth it because we had a fun conversation last night. I got up 


hadn’t finished off the cheap raisin bran that I had and then packed a bunch of food and two separate bags for my food supply with Mike. I got the Mike’s a half hour late because I couldn’t get moving. In a way I was lucky 

because I caught the train just as they were coming up. I caught the market Frankfurt eye in the Broad Street line without much of a wait at all. Once I got the Mike’s I loaded the food and Mike discovered where the odor 

must’ve been coming from an old bag of broccoli that really went bad. I threw that out immediately.  The food and Mike discovered where the odor must’ve been coming from an old bag of broccoli that really went
 bad. I threw that out immediately and then sat around for a while and eventually wept and carried the
trash downstairs

, including the really smelly trash with the broccoli in it. Mike went ahead and took a nap and I went over to Mary’s to get her some sick provisions, such as 

soup and crackers. It is really gusty out here. I mean the gusts are running up like 35 miles an hour. It was really severe my goodness
gracious. I hung out at Mary‘s for a 

while. We talked and I was thinking of going to 5:30 PM, but realized that I couldn’t make my meeting and go to the 5:30 PM class can’t do it so I’ll go to 4 o’clock. It’s 

at 2:42. I am now I got to CVS getting Mike some stuff and then I’m gonna return to Mike’s for a half hour. Well, I finished off at Mike’s and headed 

on down to Byron‘s 4 PM class. I signed out at 3:43 PM and got to class 

barely on time but I made it. Class was warm, but Byron propped up the

 windows for a moment for some air. I was told when I came in that Mary was featured in Facebook

 story of Hot Yoga , Philadelphia with Carey the woman who took over the posture clinic

 a month ago. There’s a picture of Mary with Carey.Carey is teaching at 5:30 PM class today. Afterwards, I hung 

out a little bit and then headed on down 
to Mary’s Yesterday I go to 6:45 PM MONDAY Night Beginners meeting. The meeting went well. I then went back to Mary’s, and we had
some Indian and watched a couple episodes of law and order. The cold fridge weather will be continuing for the foreseeable future.

Thursday December 5: A Different Day

This morning I actually slept in. This is because Mike’s in the rehab
and Bob wasn’t ready for me to see him yet till about 1 o’clock so I hung out at home talked to Pat for a bit and then left 
my apartment around 11:45 AM.

 Went to Mike’s rehab place. Deliver him a couple items that he needed and hung out with Mike and talk to him 
for a while. Bob then came over 
at around  1:30 PM. Once Bob picked me up. He was hungry went to a place called Spic-y. It was very good. It was nice and Cherry Street or 10th and Cherry Street one of those. It was very good. I had vegetable fried rice and I’m a definitely take Mary there sometime. It’s very nice  

clean and Service was really quick. After we left there, we went to the storage unit at Allegheny Avenue in North Philadelphia. It 
was a big old place in the middle of the 

hood. Bob has   2️⃣ storage units he shares with Lisa. He wants to clear all the items in one unit to another unit and everything else he’s giving away or bring to a furniture place 


that takes used furniture donations.After we left Northville, I thought I might try to make yoga, but that was impossible since I was getting pop keys and setting them up for the

 evening. He’ll be staying here two or three nights. We decided we would go down to Philadelphia for the evening. It’s now 6:27 PM. It’s now 7:20 PM and Bob and I walked to McGlinchey’s.  

Believe it or not they still allow smoking in there. It didn’t seem too bad 

but after Bob had his one beer and I finished off the diet Pepsi we had 

to leave and I smell like smoke. I haven’t smell like this and well over 12 years 

so I don’t know maybe I’ll go to a store and get some Febreze



 and shit but it was very interesting. I managed to charge my phone at a little mini 

charging station they had there so that was good. We then went 

to Dirty Frank’s went to this writers block rehab place and it was a cocktail bar. 

I’ve never been to a cocktail bar. It was interesting. Bob couldn’t they

 didn’t have any tap beer so Bob and I left and went to dirty Frank’s and no smoking



 in here. It’s still dirty Frank’s, but it’s a little bit cleaner cleaned 

up in herebut the bathroom still the same so there’s that what a trippy day this has been. 

Anyway, we went down Samson Street because Bob wanted 

to stop at a place before freezing his ass on the market Frankford line. It’s 9:24 PM. I’m 



definitely ready to pack it in but it’s been a trippy experience like I said before. I took a 



lot of video and a lot of pictures because today was an extraordinary day for me because it was 

completely different and random. I like it I like doing stuff like that but I also do like my 

routines. It makes me appreciate my routine more when I 

do something completely different and somewhat random. I was just adjusting to The

 situation around me such as Mike being laid up in Rehab and Bob

 visiting and needing some help with furniture, etc. etc. I also forgot to mention 

that it was the coldest day that I’ve experienced since last winter. It might’ve

 been the coldest day in couple years cause the last time it was this cold I was 

in Costa Rica in Januaryso this was a quite a shocker of cold, 🥶 but 

I had 5️⃣ layers on, so I was ready to go. So tomorrow I go to Mike’s pie 
around 8:45 AM. See if we can call the bank and then Bob will stop by between 930 and 10 AM and then loop shit around
 and then I 
intend to go to yoga. It’s gonna be cold as hell tomorrow as well so time march is on. December is really coming on strong for sure. Here’s a five minute video of the whole activity.
