Tuesday February 3: Mike’s Visitors, Errands, Yoga & Choir

This morning I got up around 8 AM and got myself ready to go to Mike’s. I wanted to get there decently close to being on time because he’s got 3️⃣ different visitorscoming and he wanted to be able to take a shower before they all showed up so I showed up early enough for him to take a shower. I ate an 
oatmeal cookie at the Metro bakery.  I ate an oatmeal cookie at the Metro bakery cause I kind of forgot about the egg sandwich. That did OK and also had a protein drink when I got the Mike’s. Tony was the first one to show up. When he showed up Mike growls that he couldn’t find his Social Security card and there was a bunch of folders that are no longer in the spot he had them. Anyway, Mike did a little bit of exercise with Tony and he talked a lot with Tony. After he left, I looked at Threads and shared some stuff with Mary. In the next thing you know it was time to go to my 11:45 AM Cleaning. So I went to that and Mike has a list of things for me to get that Fabio. He gave me $40 because he just got paid from Social Security. That’s the only time of the month he has money. It’s not terribly cold so it’s a good day to step and fetch that’s for sure. Hey, I went to Fabio‘s end up buying them nine underwear‘s cause I bought 33 packs and that wasn’t absolutely necessary but anyway he has underwear. I got them two little trash, cans, body soap, and shampoo and some other things I don’t remember. Anyhow, the nurse who was supposed to visit never showed up so I don’t know what that’s about. When it came 
back from fabulous, he was talking to a Lawyer friend of his yeah today is the mild to stay. We’ve had in quite some time. It’s actuallyabove freezing. As of 2:42 PM it’s 34° and that counts today is mild considering what we’ve had all last week and early this week. My next trip is to CVS to pick up my script and also Mike script as well. Well,I successfully picked up the scripts and told them not to order any more trazodone. I don’t need that. I have plenty supply for when I actually need it. I did get my regular script and that was good. It’s just  
3️⃣ month supply and I came back charged up my phone and got ready to go to yoga. Tina taught the class and boy she really draws in people it was a nice full class and it was perfect heat. I mean it wasn’t cold. It wasn’t cold and it wasn’t like suffocating Hot so I really appreciated that. Then afterwards, Mary and I came back home and we did find out if that Mia officially left the studio. So that blows that’s all I’m gonna say about that. Anyway, chilled out with Mary for a little bit then ran off the choir. It’s kind of cool that the destination is a little bit closer at the Resurrection church at 17th and Sansom rather
than 13th and Spruce. We’re going to get Indian tonight that’s the plan assuming it’s open. Well, Choir was interesting today we’re doing one composition. A group of songs called the killing man. It’s a collage of songs that are sung in Latin French in English and some of the songs are sacred songs. There’s a director told us that PVOP performers about 10 years ago. We’re only allowed two absences because our concerts in April and we’re already in February. Well, I did pick up the Indian at Royal Indian and it was pretty good. We chowed down and watched a law and order and then watched Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert. They were pretty funny at that’s for sure. It’s good to have a laugh in these times when we have an administration in Washington destroying all the norms and people not doing squat about it. people are no better.

Wednesday, July 23: Prepping Alice‘s house


Well this morning we woke up at 10 AM and we’ve slept really well. We were so tired. Jet lag or something that’s for sure. I had some cereal. Mary made

 some eggs and toast. After breakfast, we hung out for a little bit and then we started helping Alice prep her place for her daughter‘s 


wedding. I was carrying stuff upstairs and Mary was organizing the kitchen. I was cranked up her new air conditioner. It 

really did help because new deceptively warm outside. We all would’ve been very hot if we were doing
 all our stuff in the heat. Likely did that stuff

 we took a rest and hung out for a bit then we went out to do some errands first we’re gonna go to HomeGoods
but we decided we would eat at Panera 

bread first since Marie indicated she was hungry and we thought oh that’s a good idea to eat. So that’s what we did. We at least got some sandwiches. 
Mary and I also got smoothies. That really hit the spot. Then we went to HomeGoods and bought a whole bunch of accessories for Alice‘s house, such as curtains, throw rugs, placemats little pillows for the couches, etc. We were pretty energetic and we had a pretty good time doing the shopping. We then went to target but from each other.Mary and I bought some extra provisions for us yogurt, coffee and cereal. Then we got back and Mimi came over and we’re Hertz to speech for the wedding. And then we all just hung out for a while. It’s our 7:11 PM. Not sure what we’re gonna do for dinner but time is flying by pretty fast.

Sunday, July 13: Cleaning and Visiting Mom


Well, this morning I got up around 8:30 AM. I needed to be up and Adam and get back to Melbourne by 9:30 AM because the lady cleans my place is coming. Last week I believe

 got you showing up and I had to make sure I got there pronto! So I went to the Td bank got the cash and fortunate 21 bus just happened to be coming by so I got very lucky 

right there. Once I got to 21 that went pretty smoothly and I ended up coming 

home and the woman move a little bit late but she showed up and did 

a decent job on my place.After that, I immediately left the house and went 

to 69th St. to catch the 11 AM at 1:11 Bus towards Riddle Village. I 

got the real religion. Got there before mom’s lunch, which is around noon. I took mom to the nice little sunroom that they 
have on the fifth floor and hung out and took a picture. I showed her pictures

 of Mike, Pat, and a few other people. It was then time to go to lunch for her to go 

to lunch so I left and got the 110 back to Upper Darby. Once I got 

back to Upper Darby, I just mellowed out talked to Pat for a little while after he 

left. I got some pasta and cooked that up. Found out that the little

 dollar store right near the gas station near my house is shattered and did some laundry and carry it on. I did



 my first 12 step phone call in many many years while I was sitting on 



the bus on the way back home. I felt good about being your help to this guy.
