Monday, December 8: Cold🥶Yoga & Meeting

Today I woke up in Millbourne  after not getting enough sleep because I just couldn’t settle down to sleep. Got up and as usual and 

my trouble getting moving, but I did move and caught the train the market Frankfurt line down to City Hall train was very empty. I then took the 

Broad Street line which works a lot better especially in the cold weather to Mike’s house since it is a free transfer. I pay per ride instead of buying a weekly trans Pass cause I really don’t take enough rides 

to pay for one. Thankfully Governor Shapiro got the two sides together and we just found out this afternoon around 1:00 PM that there will be no SEPTA strike and they’ve

come up with a tentative agreement with the union. I haven’t read the details. Anyhow, this morning Tony came over and discovered that Mike


could take a whole pill of one of his medication said a half a pill and that was the reason Mike felt kind of crappy this morning and a little bit “out of it“. There was no exercises done with Tony this time 

he’ll be coming back on Wednesday. I then relax for a little bit and then I had some lunch. After I finished lunch, I watched old highlight of Reggie's Leach scoring a lot of goals and what not. He was 

very good back in his heyday in the mid to late 70s. Anyhow, it’s now 1:34 PM. I got to the CVS in time to pick up Mike’s scripts. They close from 130 to 2 o’clock every day. Anyhow, Mike had 2️⃣ scripts for his 

heart and I picked him up and he had no co-pay on them. Well down 50 3:51 PM I walked in the 29° weather and heading to Byron’s 4 o’clock yoga class. See how I do today every

day is a little bit different in Hot Yoga , Philadelphia. What bar class was pretty good I did OK. I had trouble with the pro. I’m breathing cause my right shoulder was being very resistant. To moving



pp a little bit but as I warmed up, it got a little bit better. Class was decent. Had a nice crowd and then Mary and I hung out for a while at the studio and chilled out and talked. I then went to a meeting 

which is about the “living sober“ book which was always a favor of mine. Lotta new beginners and no it’s kind of redundant isn’t it. Anyway it’s pretty damn cold right now. I just went to the  store



 and picked up four iced teas and two sodas for me. It is now 8:02 PM ready to watch some TV and eat some yummy samosas at the studio provides on Mondays. We watched two episodes of Law and order and hung out and then the fire alarm went off. It’s 12:47 AM. We’re still waiting to see if it’s a false alarm or not.L

Monday, March 24: Test Results and SSA

This morning I got up around 7:35 AM. I went to my Amazon delivery and everything was there as far as I know except they did throw 


in some gummy bears in for some weird reason. That took a while to sore throat and then I put put it all in 

a bag for food supply at Mike’s. Once I got the Mike’s Physical therapist, came over and had a pretty thorough appointment. He told Mike he has to walk around his apartment

 at least 3️⃣ times a day on his walker. He told Mike the correct way to breathe etc.. I got my colon test results. Sam there was something very scary indicated 

on there. It said “indications: high risk colon cancer.“ So I emailed 

the attending doctor about what that fucking meant.My next errand is to go to the 

Social Security office. It’s now 10:26 AM. We’ll see how long 

that takes. That appointment didn’t take long because the asshole guard big fat 

asshole not even let you walk in the office to wait, which is 

actually absurd so now I gotta wait 110 minutes for them to call me back so I 

can schedule an appointment! Well they did call back my They did call

 at 1:41 pm BUT my phone was set to “silence unlisted numbers.” YIKES!! 

I changed the settings 😒. I am hold now! well, I was on hold for two hours and then I had to go to yoga class and I couldn’t videotape anything because you can’t do video while your phone‘s on hold. I went

 to class and oh my God it was still raining just miserable drizzly rain from hell. If the wait times over 120 minutes they 
just say goodbye so it looks like this is gonna be 

a complete mental and physical challenge just to get a hold of somebody at this stupid  SSA office. Anyhow, I just limped through the day mentally and I didn’t do any video because you can’t video 
and talk on the phone. I managed to make the 4 o’clock class with Byron and you know I get it but I want all mentally there that’s
 for sure I put another sticker

 on and Class ended and then I got a smoothie for myself and Mary & when I got to Mary’s all I wanted to do was sleep. I blew off my meeting because it was
 already 6:54 PM and I just was too damn tired so I took a nice 45 minute

 nap which really Helped out and had some samosas which were very 

tasty. It’s now 9:30 PM. Murray just went down to put the laundry in and I’m just mailing 

out here. It feels good to do that.
