Thursday, May 7: Cool Sun! Mike’s Yoga & Meeting

Well, boys and girls of the Academy and everywhere else in the world good day. It is early May in Philadelphia and we’re having one of our cool sunny days. It’s very nice but you do need a jacket because it is breezy and a little cool outside. At least it’s not raining so there’s that. Got up got slept well, but didn’t quite get enough sleep but oh well first the PT came and said that Mike’s heart rate was going up and down like a toilet seat going for like 40 something to 80 something and he but he might have to go to the hospital, but once finally somebody called back, they said that he didn’t really need to because he was feeling decent. He wasn’t feeling awful and faint, etc. That was a relief. The nurse came later on and confirmed that. And then went to the Pharmacy the alternative pharmacy and then to Fabio to get some stuff. Anyhow, it is Thursday and the Sixers behind 20 and Flyers are behind as well. The Phillies are eaten – one since the new manager came in, we’re also trying to fix up the Alaska trip the best we know how. Mary’s been organizing an IT itinerary for that which is really good. After we finally get that lockdown. I’m gonna lockdown some other stuff that it’s been postponed. I am planning to go to the 4 PM class. Well, I got a late start from Mike’s and for some reason the Blog Of it oh well. I have to sign in for class now at 3:51. I’m just arriving on Sanford Street for Class. Well, Shalice talked to Class and wasn’t terribly crowded. He managed to get in pretty good. It was much hotter in the classroom than it was yesterday. I got a little dizzy in the beginning of the class, but straightened out as Class went on. Afterwards found out that the Internet was down and byron was there trying to fix it. Mary and I hung out at the studio for a little bit, then came back to to the Dorchester and took a nice 53 minute nap. That really felt good. I needed that nap pretty badly I must say. Anyhow, I then got up and walked to 22nd and Locust to catch seven bus to get me to the 815 meeting. Well, I went to the meeting and it started about 10 minutes late because of Computer issues. I was asked to work the computer and I just felt like I wasn’t ready to deal with that. Fortunately, someone came in who knew what they were doing with the computer meeting was pretty good. It was the 12th step. Anyhow, I got back via LIFT because there was a business meeting. Then I came back and had Indian and watched Law and order stuff. 

Wednesday, May 6: Meeting @ Café

Good day, boys and girls. We are rounding out the first week of May slowly but surely. I got up around eight. It took me a while to get the Mike’s. I didn’t get there to Mike’s till almost 9:30 AM. I got the Mike’s. He was a bit anxious at me spray bleach on the tile in the bathroom and do laundry. Once he got his anxiety out of the way he Venmo me 40 bucks. I got 20 bucks worth of quarters to do laundry. I then had to leave Mike’s and head to the café to meet up with Mary’s friend who might be interested in working as a caregiver while I’m away in Alaska in June and first week of July. I didn’t really look at the weather forecast, but it’s very breezy and as of 10:44 AM. It’s trying to rain, but fortunately it’s just a little spitty rain so I’m not getting that wet. Well, I met up with Mike and with Maryann. We hung out for a while. You know an hour and a half at least and Mike seems to be a very interested substituting for me as a caregiver for the month of June in the first 11 days of July. He agreed after we talked to him about the whole situation to go in person and make an application to the caregiving place, which is off of Aramingo Avenue. We hung around for a while and I had an egg sandwich so I’m completely filled. We went back to Mary’s and put on a shirt because it’s a little bit too cool just have a T-shirt on right now. Rain is mostly stopped, but there’s still bits of missed in the air. I ended up going to Mike’s putting a bunch of laundry two loads and then went to my regular 2 o’clock appointment. We talked about various topics. It was a good appointment. Happy back next week. I got back to Mike’s and changed his laundry to the dryer and the dryer took till 4:15 PM to finish so I brought the laundry upstairs and I managed a little help from Mike to get the sheet on. I think it’s inside out but it all fits the corner so it’ll do for now. I’m getting I left Mike’s around 4:35 PM which is pretty late, but I got the Mike’s pretty late. Well, I got the Mary and Mary felt well enough to go closer so we went to the 530 class with Dan. Room was pretty warm, but Dan did open the window so everything was OK. It was a pretty good class. We then went to end and I was really stiff during end. I was being taught by Hannah. We then headed back to Mary‘s place and then we went shopping and got more pasta but we’re not eating pasta but we got some for future reference. Now we’re gonna watch Law and order. It’s 9:44 PM. Phillies won again 6–3.. They’ve been very hot since they went and lost 11 games in a row. 

Tuesday, May 5: Mike’s, Philly Bach Collective Saint Marks. Comedy with Dave.

Good day everybody today is Tuesday, May 5 and this is what spring supposed to feel like. It is sunny and mild with a nice breeze. You can wear a short sleeve shirt, but in my opinion, it’s not ready for shorts yet. But a lot of people younger than me will be wearing shorts so there’s that. Got the Mike’s. The PT came over. Tony’s not gonna be around because him and his partner are having a kid right now. Mike did his exercises said he felt a little weaker today. Mike did a lot of talking today and we did eventually go out, but it took him a while to get going. But we went out and he really enjoyed the sunshine weather. It’s now 12:53 PM.I’m heading to Saint Marks church and I have to find out where this free concert is at Evans having maybe it’s Filament maybe it’s just himself I don’t know. Right now I’m wearing a short sleeve shirt, enjoying the sun and I do have my hat on it is very nice outside. Well, it was Philadelphia box Society who has these concerts at St. Mark’s church? They’ve had a series of them today was the last series they sang German and had a chamber Orchestra behind the singers the singers were really good. So after that, Mary and I tried to see if there’s accessibility at Saint Marks church for a meeting and apparently there is not. I told Mike that and he used both banisters to climb up and down the steps so not looking good. Anyway, went back to Mike’s chilled out, had a fig, which was kind of difficult to bite and next thing you know it was time to sign out. Today is Tuesday 4 o’clock 90 minute class. Yes I am going to helium comedy club to meet my brother at 6:45 PM. This means I pretty much have to split out of class drop off my Yoga stuff and then meet Dave and Heidi at the club at 6:45 PM. Well, Tina taught the class. It was a good class Mary and I now have a regular spot at the front left of the studio. And it was a good class. Each of us got compliments from Tina and that was cool. We turned in our profiles for the studio. Should be on the social media real soon.🔜 maryann, I got back to her place. I unpacked my backpack and head on over to helium which is at 21st and Sansom. I got there before Dave hung out and grabbed an OJ. It was pretty busy scene. Went to the comedy club and saw cliff hunt.. He was very funny. He is so anti-maggot was great. I’ll have to listen to him on YouTube, but he’s brutal and he made fun of cruises and Dave and Mike really like him and he was pretty funny he was he was about 15 minutes late and then after that I got some Indian food pick up that Marriott ordered. Also Mary picked up the last of the diet iced tea. The “icy ice tea. It’s the best diet iced tea out there by far.
