Sunday, March 31: Brunch w/Mom

This morning I had to get up nice bright and early because I’m going to 

brunch with Mary to see my brother and my mom. He wants us there 

by 10:30 AM so I got up and actually ran into Pat paid off the rent 

and we hung out for a while. It was nice. I think just the Pat to collect Social Security

 at 62 but he’s only 56 years old. Anyway, it’s really sunny right now 

but it’s supposed to cloud up and we will have to see the sun for another week after it. Clouds up later on today I arrived at Mary’s at 8:30 AM. He’s getting

 ready and served me up a delicious toast. I think toast could taste good, but that definitely tasted good. I must be hungry than I thought. It’s sunny now, but the sun is going to 

disappear by midday by then we will not see the sun again for a week according to our lovely weather forcasters!!😫. Well, we took 

a little longer than we thought so I had Plan B and I tried to call Uber to get us the 69th St. by 930 so it takes the trolley and 

the Uber guy was really cool quick. Fortune was a Sunday so we have the 693 terminal by 920 so then we took the trolley the trolley ran

 out of the damn bus we got the Dave medium plenty of time and then we walked to Dave’s. well, we hung out days for a while and then Dave and I went out to the Riddle village 

to pick up mom. We’ve picked her up and headed to this little place in Wallingford, which is pretty close to Dave’s house actually. So Heidi


joined the rest of us for brunch. It’s now 11:14 AM. We just got here. I went to the brunch place in 
Wallingford and they had a lot of 


people in there. The service was really really slow, but the food was very very good. We hung out there for a while and talked and laughed and what not. It’s now 

1 PM we just got to Debbie’s and I think we’re gonna catch trolley at some point. We went back to Dave’s while Dave dropped off mom. We had hung 

out for a little while and left to go catch the trolley back to Philly and eventually to our 4 o’clock class. Well, we took a nice walk to State Street and caught

 the trolley in time. That’s probably rivers very smooth. It’s so much nicer than the bus. We landed

 at 69th St. on time around 2:40 PM and then took the L all the way

 back to the studio we were there early and we got in the front door on the first floor, somebody open up the door. Kaitlyn and Byron were a little surprised. They were very nice 

and told us to get comfortable and that’s what we did. Class started in Kaitlyn right in front of the class pretend she didn’t 
know my name and I didn’t know what to do. I just kinda sat there and silence for a bit and then I just said Mark. Then Mary and I went out. Took a lot of pictures of Center because the lighting was really nice. It’s now 828 picking up dinner. I feel very tired, but maybe I’ll feel a little bit better when I eat and chow down.

Saturday, March 30: Visiting Mike w/ Dave and Wes

Well, after waking up at Mary’s, I quickly got going and got dressed
and headed down to my place in Millbourne. I got off the train around 9:20 AM and Wes he’s gonna be there in 10 minutes so I quickly came home chow down on some raisin bran and took 

out my scripts and then I realized that I left my thermos somewhere and I didn’t have it with me. I was really bummed out, really bummed out I like so much. I told Maryann 

and she was and I asked her to check at the local little store that I shop at and lo and behold. I had left it there and they’re gonna save it for me. Those people are very nice at that little

 store. Or as I relieved. I’m obviously not going to yoga today but I plan to go after brunch with my mom Mary and my 

brother David. Anyhow, Wes picked me up at 9:30 straight and went to Dave’s hung out at Dave and Debbie‘s place I had a few muffins 
We shot the shit for a little while 

and then we headed on down the scenic route avoiding I 95 completely on the way to Baltimore. We then went to Redding 

terminal place with a bunch of different food stores. Food stores had 

some wings and some buffalo wings  Wings were to die for but the buffalo wings 

were just OK but they were filling so we hung out and shit. It 

was fun. It was a good time. There was no basketball. There was some happy artist Bob somebody and there’s a whole cable channel with Bob Ross, that’s right his name 

is Bob Ross channel on cable and we just shot the shit , it’s called the grand 

Crew Market. After we chow down, we headed back to Mike’s place

 and chilled out. We watched the Phillies versus the Braves and with musical background. We talked about Mike going back to work and starting chemo. He hasn’t started yet. Erin is pitching for the Phillies and are losing 6 to 3 right nowAtlanta hit two home runs and a couple doubles. It’s now 5:36 PM. 

We’re getting ready to leave Mike’s. We going home. We’re taking

 the scenic route through route . well, it’s now 8:57 PM. We just got back just 
taking a pitstop and then head back to my patient billboard. Must’ve talking. I’ve 
looked up some old photos. It was June 22, 2022 when I started yoga in the wave. So basically taking from HYP Philadelphia I wish I didn’t have to do that but I did. Anyhow, we’re hanging out at Mike’s. The Phillies game

 was in the background. For the second time in a row the Atlanta Braves wipe the floor with the Phillies. This time it was 12 to 4. Aaron Nola got pounded for seven runs. Not an auspicious way to start the new baseball

 season.
