Saturday, July 26: Becky‘s Wedding


Today we woke up around 10:00 AM. I didn’t want to catch you since it was all set up for them wedding party tomorrow. So we ordered out


 McDonald’s egg McMuffins but then when it came through DoorDash, the order was all fucked up the coffee and spilled into the 
bag and they forgot two out of the three sandwiches

 so I canceled that order and we ended up ordering from Einstein’s Bagels and those breakfast sandwiches were so much better on real bagels anyway so we lucked

 out there. We then relax for a moment and Alice was cooking up. It was preparing up a storm and then her sink got clogged up the trash disposal got clogged up and Alice had to find a plumber. 

She called for plumbers and found a plumber who came in pretty quickly. He ended
up Finding out there was a metal straw or 

plastic straw and a pipe cleaner device inside the pipe. So that worked out well then I finally got dressed after helping the plumber and we split. It’s now 1:53 PM and we 

supposed to be there around 1 o’clock. We’re gonna be meeting them at a hotel. The wedding starts at 5:00 PM, but we were supposed to meet them at 1 o’clock actually, we’re not to meet 

them. Alice is gonna meet them so we finally arrived and I went to hang out with her daughters and we had an hour to kill so we went to the Arco minimart which doesn’t exist in Philadelphia. Got some drinks. There’s really not much happening on this area no hip and groovy coffee houses or anything so we just killed time I found a bathroom at the McDonald’s and then went back to meet Alice. Well, Alice took about 25 minutes longer than we expected. And she got a parking ticket at the parking spot. She came back and she didn’t realize the area was as low budget as it was but we made it by. We then decided we would not leave the car there and drive up and see if we could find parking and we found a really nice parking spot within a three minute walk of the venue. The venue is very casual and Mary and I went to a Lebanese place to get something to eat becausethe food is very light after the wedding so we wanted something to fill us up is now 434 we have about 20 minutes at most to eat and run to the wedding.

Thursday, January 7: Gas Leak! Aftermath of Coup


Well today is the day after the attempted interaction/cool happened yesterday afternoon in Washington DC. This is all people can talk about. This happened as the Democrats managed 
to win  both houses both Senate races in Georgia. Sous chef Democrats have control the US Senate 50-50 with vice president Kamala Harris breaking the tie. Well as I was reading about
all this Lynne talked  to me about the gas problem and have I taken care of it. I had it. I then talked to Pat for a while and managed to convince him to go to call the gas company rather than just a friend of his for tomorrow. The gas company came in about 20 minutes and lo and behold there was a gas leak. It was located at a pipe that was pretty close to both of the heaters on both floors. That was pretty scary that the leak is 
been probably going on for months now. So the heat have to be shut off and then the plumber had to call the gas company employee can only turn off the gas he couldn’t undo the pipe. The pipe was done 
in about 15 minutes.   Thep lumber was attempting to turn the heat back on and a part on my heater was not working. He couldn’t light the pilot light so he had to go 
out and get a new part and install it. That took about five hours. Fortunately he was put on before sunset which was good. There’s a lot of recriminations about what happened yesterday. Some are
looking at invoking the 25th amendment which should have to be done by terms on cabinet. Several cabinet members have resigned. I don’t think they’re going to do the 25th amendment but the house of representative led by Nancy Pelosi are looking to start impeachment hearings sometime possibly. What a hot mess
