Tuesday, February 10: Prepping for Funeral

Good day everybody this is Marc speaking. I woke up after being late ordering prints and what not. I picked up the print. Anyway I got the Mike’s signed in found out. He was going to get cut off from medical assistance then we started prepping to appeal the decision before February 16. I then had to go ahead and pick up the prints and go to bleak printing to take care of that. Mary was very helpful. She guided me over 
the phone and I called her on Facebook messenger. And that worked out pretty well. I then went back to her place dropped off the Material and then eat lunch and walk back to Mike’s but before then I went to CVS to pick up some stuff there. The pharmacy doesn’t take buying groceries. You’re only buy 2️⃣ items at once which is pretty bogus. So it looks like the funeral service is Saturday and then the burial is going to be Monday. I still am going to do yoga hopefullyI’ll get a little more sleep, which would be really really good. OK got back to Mike’s. Went out to get outside for a moment and came back and 
signed out. I also wrote to the agency that I was not coming into work next Monday due to the burial. I ended up going to Tina‘s 4 o’clock class. I’m really pleased. She teaches 4 o’clock class. To me it makes up a little bit for the fact that Miah is no longer with the studio. Mary took the night off because she had a migraine headache. I left the studio and my goodness it feels mild compared the way it was. I gotta be at acquired at seven and I just could not get moving out of the studio after the class.Class was good. It was really toasty. I eventually walked home after doing a little hustling and hung out with Mary and charged up my phone. I didn’t have to leave fairly quickly because their tolerance for being late is lesser this time around. Mary went to her meeting.

Monday, February 9: Mom Passed Away

Well, this morning after I got to Mike’s, I found out that my mother had passed away this morning. David called me. So he’s making arrangements with the funeral Director, who is a friend of us which is a goodthing so it won’t get ripped off in this time of morning. Period. It’s definitely a shock but considering how she looked yesterday it’snot a complete shock. I’m glad I was able to head out there, even though it was cold as fuck. Tony’s with Mike right now and Mike has the keys to let that next person in. Mayor 
called back and said she was going to meet me at the café so that sounded like a nice idea and I so jumped on it. Yeah it’s cold as fuck out here. I’m tired of it. I’m so glad I’m going to Florida soon. Yeah, our trip to Florida is on the 18th and I had to reschedule my consult to next Monday at 11 AM. Trip to 
Florida might have to be altered, but we’ll see. anyway, I threw in Mike’s laundry and then went off to meet Mary for lunch at the café. The Heart of Catering Café. Anyway, I got there early and I sucked on a large coffee and tried to do some blogging. I had my usual breakfast burrito, which was very tasty. It was. It was nice to get out and hang out with Mary. I felt a lot better afterwards. I think got back to doing errands. For Mike. I got a bunch of stuff at CVS For Mike. I got a whole bunch of stuff. Also got like 5️⃣ cans of poppi


delivered by Amazon today so I have a ton of poppy soda. They had a commercial in the Super Bowl was supposed to make y’all fresh and hip for drinking that stuff. Anyway, it’s 3:00 PM. I just threw Mike’s stuff in the dryer 2:21 PM so hopefully it’ll be dry at 3:21 PM that is the ideal. Well, Mike’s laundry did finish on time and I left his place around 3:40 PM. I’m at Marriott Yoga and ended up finding a placeright next to her in the studio. I saw Linda there as well. Byron taught to Class. It was pretty pretty warm, which was nice. Afterwards we went back to Mary’s and ate some samosas, which were very good. I was puttingin charging and doing a plaster board for my mother‘s funeral and spent half the night between law and order episodes trying to figure out what pictures and everybody exchanged pictures. It was pretty intense for me. Ended up Maryann and I stayed up very late ordering from Photo Lounge and trying to figure out what size photos we 


needed. Looks like tomorrow going to have to figure out Photo Lounge. Go to bleach and get the stuff to Dave. I’m not sure how I’m gonna do all this. Thank you. 

Sunday, February 8: Frigid 🥶🥶 Last Visit w/ Mom

Hello and good morning. Welcome to Arctic winner 2026. I got up and when I got up temperature was 7° out. There’s a nice 10 mile an hour
gusts going on. Anyway, I got up prepared my yoga clothes and headed off to see my mom I thought about taking over than decided. I try to catch the 21 that failed and then I caught Uber from 18th and Walnut. I missed the 10 AM bus call to 10:30 AM bus from sixth and ninth Street terminal I was hungry so I had two pieces a pound cake considered the traditional one piece. Took the bus & and boy it was just frigid walk the 10 minutes it took maybe more than 10 minutes to walk from the bus stop to the Riddle Village. It is cold as fuck out here. I then
visited mom. She did not look real great. She was really tired really couldn’t wake her up and she had bad skin tears and just happened 
as of the 31st and February 6. Nurse came by another staff member came by, which is cool yeah she’s looking pretty out of it today. it was not her Best. Now walking to the bus stop oh my God just hit me and I can’t talk anymore. Anyhow, I did manage to catch the bus back to Upper Darby got back by around 1:30 PM then I just relax for 2️⃣ hours and 
then I in a little bit of lunch and then look to find that acceptance running up to 15 minutes late to be there police activity stuff from this morning so 
I’m catching at 3:22 PM Bus, which should be here about now but we’ll see. I’ll have to skip the 3:22 PM bus and the 332 bus showed up about a 
minute later 3:33 PM. I waited almost 20 minutes for this strain not good. Well, I got to Kaitlyn‘s 90 minute hot class and oh my God it  & it was packed. I managed to get there on time but just barely. The official count was 30 people, but it felt like more than that. But I guess it’s true. They had 3️⃣ full rows and I guess each row had 🔟 people along it so I guess that would fill up a room. It was a good class. I’m glad I madeit so a couple people I know such as Linda and HAIM. Further was also there. Byron was there because he’s teaching a teacher certification class. Iwas the last person out of the broom.
