Tuesday, May 31: Visiting in W. Philly & Errands
Today I attempted to get up around 930 and really struggle. I did hear Pat shuffling around upstairs. I figured he was back from work. I did get
myself up and that’s what I could join them and visiting Mike Bencik for their gonna have a beer and I’m gonna have my lemon juice stuff So I joined them
and we hung out it was good to see Mike again we hung out in his back porch for a little while until he had to go to target and
get some stuff for his landlord duties. He owns real estate here so he comes to United States from Ireland 3 months of the year to get his rentals fixed
up etc. I just heard from another friend I’m going to help them move their fathers car tomorrow around
5 o’clock in Ardmore. It’s good to be able to help somebody else. It does take my mind off my situational icing in my situation in general.I got home and finally put away the large amount of toilet paper I bought
on line. I got an extra box so that bought it off for me for 20 bucks. I talked to Nadine
and I’m going to meet her for lunch on Friday for lunch.
I finally left the house around 3:30 PM to head downtown to the photo lounge and pick up my photos. Annex need to find equipment for the photos I have to go to art shop of some sort. Well I
went to go to lunch that move from 19th and Chestnut to 130 S. 17th. I forgot to read the address and went to the old place just
buy wrote. The guy said they moved almost a year ago. Now I’m going down to black racer for full name is dick Blick. After I went to click I decided off the time
they had to head down to Fairmount for the 630 meeting. I figured that the OCF coffee house would be open when I got here. I was disappointed to
find out how they close at 5 PM every day now.. I talked to one of the
employees and they told me they’ve been closing at five since Covid. When they
started letting people inside they made it five because they didn’t have enough business or staff to open past 5 years that’s the way things are. Well I walked
up for 3 blocks and Ryebread‘s open till 7:00 PM. That’s what we’re dealing with now. Well, I went to to Ryebread which is on 17th and Fairmount. They’re
open till 7 PM. It’s the same shop in the same young people working it. Not literally same people do the same kind of people. I went to the meeting and it was already
crowded and it ended up it was a 615 meeting on Tuesdays. I have not been inside that building literally since
March 11, 2020. Bizarre isn’t it!!?? No wild in Fairmount somebody had placed the resume at the London which is been closed
for a couple years now. I wasn’t even trying to proofread and saw three major mistakes. I thought it was kind of funny😏🤓

Monday, May 30: Memorial Day 2022 in Media
I first got up around 6:30 AM and obviously I went back to sleep. I didn’t get up at 9 AM and decided I would just go back to sleep. Boy oh boy
I had a weird weird dream that I woke from around 10:35 AM. That dream is just
really weird! Next I did finally rustle up some breakfast and talk to Pat for a little bit. I reported
the blind that broke and the roach problem that I have. He thinks they
came from the neighbor when they moved. I thought it was strange because I hadn’t really lived in my house for the last 2 1/2 months. Still getting a lot of
emails hello and happy Memorial Day. I talk to my brother
about seeing my mom and he told me that she’s coming up to Media
around 3 o’clock. He then instructed me to go to Trader Joe’s to get 2 bags
of chips unsweet nice tea for the get together. Yes if I had a place on
my own I could have a Events but obviously that hasn’t worked out to the chagrin
of some in the family. Well I picked up the bags and got the Dave’s at
a pretty good time. In fact I beat Dave back from picking up mom. I talked to Debbie
for a little bit. And then we had a nice barbecue of hamburger with all kinds of things blended
in the meat and the most delicious couscous. I enjoyed that. Of course I eat really slow, finished off my Supercoffee yes I had my diet Coke that I had brought with me in my backpack.
We hung out and talked for a while it was very nice in the shade it wasn’t
terribly hot. It was warm but it didn’t have the choking humidity of July.
It sounds 6:12 PM I just left Dave‘s and decided I would walk back to the main street since I need to burn off the calories I eat plus walking feels good.
Still doing the emails. I’m now drinking read zero sugar extra 100% more ginger than the original ginger beer. Anyhow, when I got on the train to
Media. I was the only one on the train. So I’m gonna enjoy not wearing a mask and being the only one on this train it’s very nice out right now and I’m heading back to Upper Darby PA which is the central pick up
location for the media trolley the Norristown high speed line and the Market Frankford line as well. When I got on the train I was only one on the train till we got to the
Springfield mall and then two people decided to finish shopping and catch the trolley at the trolley stop at the Springfield Mall. It is now 6:47 PM and still on the trolley
