Wednesday, February 25: Implant Estimate. REST

This morning I woke up around 7:45 AM but I laid around till close to 8 AM. I had cereal and got the Mike’s around 9 o’clock. It was fairly mild. It was about 36° when I left the door. The snow is melting pretty quickly definitely compared to the last snowstorm. I went to Mike’s. We chatted a little bit and then I went to the specialist to get a price on how much implantswould be. Mind you this is only the cost of putting in a bone graft and the implant. It does not include putting in the crowns which the regular Dentest would put in. The total was about $6200. The dental plan only covered about $350. That was for the extraction. So when you add in the crowns which are approximately $1900 it’s a pretty pricey proposition. Anyhow, I’m gonna sit on that and think about it a while. This is a very big commitment because once he does the extraction in a bone graft you gotta let your mouth heal for 3️⃣ months before
finishing it off. Anyhow, after that I went to CVS and did errands for Mike at the CVS. He had no scripts it’s now 12:49 PM. I’m going to be seeing Dr. Hockenberry, at 2 PM. Then it’s off to Yoga butnot till 5:30 PM class so I’ll be able to take a nap, hopefully when I get to the Dorchester.  Anyhow, finished my appointment is now 3:03 PM. Just told the doctor all the stuff that’s goingon the last 2 1/2 3️⃣ weeks. Then three weeks before that started the whole snow frigid weather bullshit. Anyway half an hour at Mike’s or so, andthen off to the Dorchester to hopefully take a nap. Anyhow, right now 4:18 PM I officially got my full eight hours today. I’m also officially at 7% on my battery. We skipped yoga and napped. It was good. It was really good to just skipped the class. Yes today. I really needed that rest. My body and mind are tired. I feel like in the last year. I really did some aging going on. Well the Parson it’s Turner gave me that first signal and today the beep goes on.

Saturday, October 18: Rest, No Kings & Yoga

Good morning and good day. We slept in and it was glorious to sleep in. I had originally woke up around 8:30 and was so glad. 😌 both of us really needed that sleep real badly. It was an exhausting week for me, 

especially. Between rehab and dealing with Mike’s stuff I had just about had it. I even skipped yoga yesterday. Anyhow, we went to the part of catering café, which was very good. I had my usual

breakfast burrito. Today is the new Kings protest today. It started at 1400 JFK Boulevard and will be at independence mall till 3 o’clock today. It 

was just like the one in June of this year. it’s pretty mild day outside gonna be a high of 70°. With no chance of rain, which is always a good

thing. We went to the Eno Kings rally, and it was very good. We took the bus and then the bus stopped, and we walked the rest of the way. It was a very good

crowd here in Philadelphia. We saw all kinds of signs and people dressed up in dinosaur costumes, etc. It is very friendly crowd right there. Cooperated as well which is great anyhow, we went there

and then. P On the way back, we walked up Chestnut Street and then decided to take an Uber because well it was. We were both pretty tired. And we needed to get to our 4 o’clock yoga class as well. I made

a video of the new Kings Philadelphia and shared it with my family and other family members shared their photographs of the event. Went very 

well it was very spirited but very chill. You know there is no violence and bullshit like that. Went to the 4 o’clock class and there were some new people there both Mary and I made it out pretty good. 

We recovered from walking around no kings. We were both a little tired from that cause there’s a lot of walking going on. We got a smoothie on 

the way back, which is really helpful. It was a protein smoothie and that was very yummy. Anyhow, we decided to have some veggie burgers at dinner

which was very fruitful even though we didn’t have any fruit. We did multiply the amount of burgers and I had some mustard some sprouts and tomato. It was 

quite delicious. We didn’t watch them law and order and I’m going to bed because I got a voice lesson tomorrow at 8:30 AM. After that, I’m gonna visit mom tomorrow. Then I’m probably going to 

go home and sleep. I have a feeling my nose is running a little bit and the back of my throat feels a littlepostnasal drip edge. I’m definitely fighting off something anyhow

we’ll have to see how the media reacts to the new kings and the people in charge react to it. As far as I heard, and I haven’t heard a lot there 

wasn’t any violence in anti-American ism going on as they come out and claim.

Wednesday, May 13 :Rain on My Shoulders

Good morning. I got up after my left shoulder started really kicking like chicken. I got up around 7:12 AM because I have to be at Mike’s 


on time at 8:30 because he has another appointment with the urologist for his bladder. It’s supposed to rain all 
week till Saturday and it is drizzling 

outside right now. Thanks. I went to the coffee place and one of the guys working there is Jordan Mike’s upstairs neighbor really nice guy I’ve talked about 

before and I got into a conversation with other guy that has golf elbow and he’s 62 and I’m 63 and we were communicating about our injuries. Shoot after I got the Mike’s I drank 

a little bit of my coffee I bought and then a yogurt. We then caught the right out to 801 Walnut St. and I then entered the building and spilled all my coffee. Mike 
needed a wheelchair and I had trouble

 managing it. I then then we proceed to wait for about an hour until the doctor till they finally called Mike. why Mike was seeing the doctor somebody
saw the 2️⃣ women were sitting on a ledge and urge 

people to call 911 to get them off the ledge. It looks like they were just hanging out, but it looked pretty precarious as the pictures show! he was in and out fairly quickly, but I also remembered that I need to go to Mary’s

 and pick up my cord cause I got 8% left on my phone. My phone died when I got the mic so I decided to go to Mary’s and then we decided to go to the part of catering Café. We came up 
with a really good question in life. How did the book Moby Dick get its name? And we found the answer who was named after Away a real whale that was albino that have evaded capture for years. Yes, I went ahead and 

scheduled another massage for an hour with Nick on my left shoulder. Hopefully you know the pain and discomfort. I’m experiencing now at 1:48 PM. We can solve or at least alleviate at 5:15 PM. Otherwise it’s PT and a 
doctor. anyhow, I just read at 4:37 PM that the MLB aka Major League Baseball, has reinstated Pete Rose and shoeless Joe Jackson.. I had read that the commissioner met with Trump in April and


 Trump was a fan of getting Rose reinstated so take it as you may, but I think The commissioner sold out to Trump. Anyhow, I went to my 515 appointment and he gave me a good work over on my left arm. He basically

 said that the same thing happened to my left arm is with my right arm. He gave me instructions for a specific exercise, which is basically letting my arm hang with a 2 pound

 weight on it.Gotta hope this ends soon because it’s friggin shitty. But I am thankful. It’s not my knees doing this bullshit that would be 3️⃣ times as bad. Courle, I went back to Mary’s picked up my music

 and my coat and headed on down to choir practice which I was eight minutes late for which means 7:08 PM. It was a fairly grueling Cunt the rehearsal. We did have a 30 

minute break while the chamber people were rehearsing. It ended and I fixed up my calendar. It’s a very busy 2 1/2 weeks coming up around the corner. Fixed up my calendar  And almost forgot my hat and umbrella, but it’s not 1018. I’m finally back at the Dorsch..
