Monday, April 15: Sunny Tax Day w/ Errands

I woke up a little bit earlier than the alarm since I had a relaxing day where I napped and did nothing all day yesterday. I got up and first thing
I did was get my Amazon delivery from the front door and the Amazon delivery that was sent to my back door. They now put everything in the sealable bags which is kind of cool because it makes

 it easier to pick up and stuff. Anyhow I got to work almost done time because I caught a bus just as I was climbing out of the subway stairs. Got the Mike’s and since she had no appointments, it was 

time to do errands on a nice day like today. I went to dropped off 

some notes and found out that any appeal has to be done over the phone.

 So I gave my number and , that was that. Then I took the bus back to 

15th St. and went to CVS and got some other things. I went by the last drop 

coffee shop and the coffee just tasted nasty today. It was something nasty but I enjoyed just sitting there. Anyhow, after I got back, I decided to , just have lunch 

and chill for a while and then I remembered I have some other script to pick up from Mike. I went to a pharmacist called Health on South. It’s an old-fashioned neighborhood pharmacy, which

 sells very basic goods and health related stuff just like an old Pharmacy from my childhood. Anyhow, the guys are really

 nice there and they have this stuff Govee, which is like, but I guess it’s a different brand and you can sell it that you slip under your tongue and liquid form injecting

 in your gut. That’s interesting so I’m gonna share that with a couple people I know who might need it. Anyway, I got back and Mike was doing some exercises

 and I’m listening to Billy Joel and nylon Kurt, which I really I’m digging. There’s one song called Scandinavian Skies which, reminds 

me I have a trip in one week to Amsterdam next Tuesday all right, it’s 3:40 PM. I was actually seven minutes late so I can’t do it if I get enough sleep. I can 

actually get up earlier than 7:15 AM and be on time and do all my mess. Anyhow, it is a beautiful day outside got a lot of pictures took

 them put them on Facebook and Instagram separately Instagram connects

 to my other Facebook page, so I don’t know how to change the 

Facebook page that hooks up to Instagram and of course I can’t get any help

 

with that. I’m off to Byron’s class where we go pictures were taken

 and I think I had my best practice on that day, so that was very fortuitous. 

Anyhow, I took the 4 PM class and Miah is teaching it and the 

room was really hot. It was a very very hot class today. Well it was almost 80° when class started, but it is a 


good class and did all my poses mostly decent . Took a little while 

to cool off but once I did, I had back with Mary And eating samosas and talking about photographs and what not. I’ve then went to the money I went to a Monday night 
beginners meeting. We had a business meeting afterwards. I have to get 20 new 
member packets
 before I leave next week and bring them back. I then went back home and Pat was not available because he was too tired and his phone died so he couldn’t get a W-2 form so now it’s been delayed till next Thursday at 10:30.

Sunday, May 7: Riddle Village to Ardmore

Well today I got up around 9:30 AM earlier in the morning. I 

heard Pat shuffling around doing laundry, etc. before he went off to work again.

 I talked to Dave and he was undecided what he was doing cause he’s doing errands so 

I saw the clock and said I better get going to see mom sooner than later because the buses run every hour. I also have a trip to Ardmore to take 
today, so I want to make sure I wasn’t running late to everything and messing things up. Anyhow, the bus ride went smooth. They barely made the 

bus. I literally got on the bus sad, and it started moving so again I was last 
minute Larry. Anyway, friend of mine went on a date and it was interesting, but I’ll leave it at that. Anyway, I hung out with my mom. She was


eating breakfast. I waited five minutes to for her to finish socializing with her friends at Riddle Village. Dave is doing errands so I think I’m going to leave before he actually arrive. I did tell him 

that. Well, I called the 111 parts just in time to go towards 69th St. I played around 

with Google Maps and figured that I could go home for like 6 or 7 minutes,

 drop off stuff I don’t need. Well I decided to go for it took a quick shower because

 I was absolute gross. So I jumped in the shower and took a quick

 shower in the world, put on some shorts and a new T-shirt and throw my jacket

 and fortunately the 2:20 PM train was four minutes late so I caught the train. 

Otherwise I would’ve had three minutes to spare once I got the 30th St. the cat 2:49 PM train out to Ardmore
Station. well now it is 2:55 PM and the train just arrived so it’s running about 5 to 6 minutes late

 they will go and then the beeper man will come in with my card. It’s nice and 

air-conditioned in here so far, so good on my track from Riddle village to the Ardmore

 house without paying Uber. Well, I managed to make it. I went to the Ardmore house about five minutes late. Dream is a little late but the gardener 

and a decent clip. I went to the Rite Aid to get some provisions. It’s really 

good that I was able to take a shower and change my clothes because

 it just makes me feel so much better. I think we’re going to end up talking

 politics or whether what a person can be completely non-partisan in this day and age, there’s 

people out there that claim they could be complete completely non-partisan in 

their views. That’s a bit of a misnomer if you’re politician, person on politics, 

does tend to be personal. I arrived in with Fred Eli Wiesel concerning the holocaust. I got a nice picture of Herman the cat. A walk is next. But we took a long slow 



walk down to Ardmore. There was a lot sad and a lot walked. We also 

saw lots of dogs. People have the cutest dogs in Ardmore. I guess that’s 

a nice thing about suburbia. It’s safe to walk dogs. The cloud cover increased. In fact there was 

spitting rain along the way. The weather forecast did not call for a rain just clouds. It’s now 6:22 PM, I failed to 

report in yesterday‘s blog posting that there was a mass shooting once again in Texas. Eight people were

 killed, and some of them were children. Of course, nothing will 

be done to slow the perforation of guns everywhere the Republicans are bought out by the NRA and the Democrats
don’t have enough clout to do anything about it so we’re at a standstill in an impasse
 as usual. Lynne shared this. It does fit me in many ways. I just  ate some. Indian food is really good!  It was very spicy, surprisingly basic, considering it was inside we’re watching deadwood right now. Season two episode #9. It is now 7:49 PM taking a short break from watching the show. I’m going to 

get more to eat and drink. Then again, I decided I would just let myself digest a bit. Lynne has a friend named Brad

 and made this movie about the gun culture. Hasn’t come out yet but I saw a preview. It is a huge country. I think it’s the NRA thing. It’s really kind of scary all the kind of weapons they sell to get used, killing  many people. I like this guy on TikTok is funny. I think some people wouldn’t like it because it inaine but I think it’s funny.
