Wednesday, July 8: Beach and Stuff

Well, Mary & I woke up around 11:30 AM. Alice had been up for several hours we got up. Alice decided she needed to go swimming so she went to the Saint Francis pool to go swimming. Mary and I had breakfast and got ready to pack and then I discovered I somehow lost my Amsterdam Hot Yoga towel. I don’t know where it went. I guess I left it on the beach, believe it or not. Anyhow, we went to the beach and found out. I completely left my phone in the apartment so I had to run back and get it. I had a really good spot near the beach. We decided to go to Dave’s beach and Dave was going to be joining us. I did find my phone and decided to bring a Wawa bag and a second Pepsi cause that first Pepsi is probably going to be warm by the time I get to it. It’s now 2:26 PM. It’s about the same time. We arrive last time late as usual. There seems to be better opportunities for finding spots since it’s mid week. Well, we went to the beach and hung out for a while. I forgotten my phone. I had to run back, but I got a really close parking spot near the beach. 🏖️ so I went to the beach and finally started to read the book into the wild, and that book was really entertaining. I just was blowing through it, and it was really very entertaining and  interesting. It was interesting how he went all over the country from suburban DC or Virginia near DC and managed to go all over the place up and down to West Coast to the Sault and Sea. I found a bear intriguing. It was extra cool because I’ve been to that place. Even went to Oregon and went on a canoe riding on the rails and got picked up a hitchhiker and picked up some nice friends. I’m really liking the book. I’m looking forward to reading more of it. Anyhow, Mary and I managed to go into the water this time unlike the last time. It wasn’t as hot and a nice cool breeze. Alice went in as well, and she said the water was warmer this time around which I would agree with her. We stayed at the beach till about 6 PM and then we wobble back towards the car and drove the car from the beach to our place. Which took a shower and then talked about dinner.Alice wasn’t in the mood to go out anywhere, but Mary and I were. Alice ordered a DoorDash and Mary and I went to La Bamba. They are a lot less chaotic this time around and we got really good service. We were seated near the area where people pay we got nachos with guacamole and burritos. Mary had a nonalcoholic margarita which she said, tasted a little bit pulpy, but she liked it. We then went back and they wrote back around and have some ice cream but my phone died so I didn’t get the answer until I got back. I also really enjoyed her dinner. It was a large vegetarian hamburger she enjoyed it. Just mellowed out and looked at our phones and talked a little bit for the rest of the evening. 

Tuesday, July 7: Pilates, and Walking.

Well today I woke up after only really sleeping about three hours. I woke up with a very funny dream which I shared on Threads for the hell of it. It was pretty goddamn funny I thought anyway, I got up feeling pretty tired and met Debbie to go to Pilates. I didn’t know what to expect so when I got the class, she talked “classic Pilates.“ The teacher was a middle-age woman who had taught the class before. We start off nice and slow, which was nice. I hadn’t done Pilates in a while and I noted that it was a lot of core work, but I guess that’s what Pilates is about anyway. It was a lot more slow and deliberate than the hot Pilates at the Hot Yoga Philadelphia studio. Debbie let me her one of her mats and she got me in as a guest and I saved 25 bucks so which is cool. Anyway, I came back to the condo and Alice had the AC up to 11 and I was damp and cold and I needed a shower something serious so I took a shower and ate some breakfast. That felt good. I sat with Mary in the back, cause it was too cold in the apartment. After breakfast, I just needed a nap something fierce so I took a nap for about 35 minutes. Mary joined me and it was very pleasant. I really needed that nap to get me moving and grooving. Alice went to the gym and she said she really enjoyed the gym and she felt a lot better. Alice decided she would go to the Maritime museum with Dave which sounded really boring to me. Mary and I went back to the Bay village and I enjoyed it. I guess I’m an old geezer. I enjoyed just walking around looking at stuff. We look for Jim shorts didn’t find any that were under $40 and fit. We did find a nice T-shirt and I had 2️⃣ iced coffees. Mary Sue called us about the Reiki classy teaching on July 30. We were on the phone for for at least 15 minutes as we walked back towards Dave’s world in. Beach Haven. Meanwhile, Alice went kayaking with Dave and enjoyed it herself very much. Then decided we would go out to dinner towards the end the other end of theisland and towards Barnegat and then we figured out Kubel’s is up there the original Kubel’s Too, which used to be to DeFritea’s, was closed down in the building, was reduced the rubble and cleared out for some kind of parking lot for now. Anyhow, we decided to eat there. Mary took a nap and Alice showered. I didn’t wanna nap because I was afraid it would spoil my sleep tonight. I need to sleep better than I did last night for sure. Reiki class of Mary Sue is August 30. We would be level one Reiki teachers, which is kind of bizarre iclass of Mary Sue is August 30. We would be level one Reiki teachers, which is kind of bizarre in my mind  but we’re doing this for a sales but also to help a friend out who’s wanting to get way into Rick and B ranking master. It’s now almost 8 o’clock. We’re gonna go out to leave for dinner around 8:15. They stopped serving dinner at 9:30 PM. Well, it was cloudy today, but it managed not to rain! We went to Kubel’s. We chow down we had chicken wings and we were all so damn hungry. We are two rounds of chicken wings. Mary had the jambalaya and I had a meal can’t pronounce which was pasta and it was really good. We all very much enjoyed our dinner. We were all very hungry. By the time we were finished we were one of the last people left in the bar restaurant. There was one person left at the bar itself. We then got back. They were ready to go to bed. Yes, we were.
