Sunday, March 19: Seeing Mom, Uber and Ardmore

After a crappy night of sleep, I woke up little bit later than I wanted to, but I did manage
to do laundry and take care of that. When I went out to catch the bus, it was really really cool. I had forgotten to call Dave so I didn’t meet him for lunch at noon so he said stop
 by at 2 o’clock and that’s what I did. I stop bye, my moms. Before that I had missed the bus so I took the next bus which was at 1:09 towards Chester and took out Baltimore Pike before it went South to 

Chester. I saved about 15 bucks on Uber doing that and I got there right at 


2:00 PM.  Once I got there mommy just returned back from lunch

 she had with my brother and she had half a cheesesteak, so I hate that thing because I was pretty hungry. Mom and I had a nice time. We laughed and told old stories,etc. And then called the 

Uber to take me to Ardmore.  I managed to tame it so it supposed to get to Ardmore at 3:30 PM which is the time that I am expected to be there. The big story is that Trump 

announced on his fake social media site that he expects to be indicted on Tuesday. He wants his MAGA supporters to cause trouble. That’s typical for this idiot traitor. 



Anyhow, I arrived right on time from the Uber, and then I took out a couple things to the car, including a humidifier 

that I was gifted. It’s now 3:51 PM and I think the next thing is that we are going

 to take a walk. At least I hope we do because it’s pretty damn cold 🥶 outside right now to be exact

. Well it’s 4:40 PM will be walking soon. Well we walked for about an hour and 10 

minutes. It’s now 6:17 PM and it was cold but not freezing cold. 

It was this morning. The wind didn’t kick up. Thank God for that. I’m gonna

 talk to Mike about signing up for subsidize places etc. tomorrow. 

we just had to watch the series on Netflix called The Crown. It seems pretty good 

so far we had some curry vegetable soup, and it was very good.

 I like that stuff. Next we are having tea with ginger and lemon. after that
we finished, I think three episodes of the
 crown, which is actually better than I thought it would be. And then drove back to my place and again had trouble sleeping but I did sleep and sleep is good. I like it a lot.

Tuesday, June 27: A Busy Day w/. 17 Appts. An appointment in the Treasury Meeting.

 Good day. Today is Tuesday. It's the day I see a lot of clients.   t's also the end the month so I have to get this one report done in the next day or two. My supervisor wasn't in when arrived at work at 9:10 AM. I then changed & put powder

 on where it's needed and proceeded to work. I went to google photos to delete   photos.
 I'm gonna keep deleting and see if it affects my previous blog post if it doesn't I'll just sit on the bus & 
 elete like crazy! The problem is I have to delete them one at a time. Trying 
 o get customer support through Google is like a maze. It's not amazing it's a pain in the ass!! 
 ell after I took care of my changing in the men's room I went out and my
 folks came in steadily all day long.. They came in groups of four at a time apparently. So I ended up seeing him 
 pproximate three or four at a time on the most part. When the dust to settle for 17 people. I even got badgered by my 
 upervisor about not getting the OK to give people good cause. As my coworker said, I did a pretty good job of 
 electing it. I was too busy to worry about it but I did find a couple of people 
 uyer and I think that made her happy. I guess I should just 
 o that every so often. It's just a little difficult when
 I've got four people waiting out front. After work I went outside and it was
 very nice out. I went out and took the EL to to 30th St. to go to the post office and pick up checks 
 t the PO Box of the district. After that, went to staples to copy  the The checks
 for the meeting that was starting 
 t 7:30 PM. I managed to get itdone just before my appointment 

 t 6:30. It was worth it to be late for the 730 meeting because I enjoy
 our sessions. I decided that I would send an email of the treasures
 report so if I was late I could just tell people to read the email. There was probably my best pressure port by far since I start doing this. It's a two year commitment interestingly enough. I had actually thought of just going up there were signing. I'm glad I was in a good mental space it makes things so much doable and easier. I came home and then later decide to order out Chinese. I know I have leftovers predator mail.

Friday, June 16: San Diego, Ventura , Then to Santa Barbara for Dinner

  Good morning from San Diego California. Plan to leave at 5 AM  quickly fell by the wayside. As it was I didn't get up till 6:30 AM Pacific daylight Time. As it was I was pretty tired when I got up. I thought everyone else might be asleep but Alice & daughter   were already up and hanging out. I got my clothes on and downstairs. I  chilled out and that I hope little bit of cleanup. I clean the litter trash down to the end of the driveway.   nd we discussed Trump politics in the constitution for a while. After that  I helped Alice with a little bit of taking out the  trash and cleaning up the kitty litter. She reminded me that there's a beach there in Ventura. I'm have to buy a   bathing suit. She however did provide me a towel so I'll be ready for the beach. Really looking   orward to breakfast it's now 8:26 AM will be leaving in about 10 minutes. But we left and  we went to a Carl's Jr. and got breakfast. I get this French toast sticks and some hashbrowns.   rench toast sticks weren't that bad. We didn't get trucking when are 3 1/2 hour trip from San Diego to Ventura.
 Traffic got a little hectic in North Hollywood area.There wasn't too much  red considering where  we were. As you know the red means bad news for traffic on Google maps. It's now   2:17 PM we just stopped at the   entuckyFried  Chicken for a bathroom break. We're still a little over an   our away. We are grooving to the Beatles,  mamas and the Papas and Simon and Garfunkel. Well a   ouple of court cases that made the news were decided today. 1st off  we have an officer who shot Philando Castle during a traffic stop was acquitted of manslaughter  This is the case  where his girlfriend video taped the aftermath. Once again a cop gets off.   A woman who was arrested for encouraging her boyfriend to commit sucide was declared guilty of involuntary manslaughter by a judge. A bit of overkill. The stupid girl was only 17. I think it's the bullying craze gone nuts.  We then looked up on Wikipedia concerning Engelbert Humperdinck. We all found   ut that it's not his birth name. He was named after a composer who wrote  Hantzel and Gretel. Boy the internet has some good information. We did   inally arrive at Ventura. David chose a Marriott to stay. It's one  of these for star hotels well we unpacked our  stuff. and then Alice and daughter went to pick up Hannah's car and    took a walk to the beach. The beach was nice but   ad these big rocks which made it very hard to walk up on some parts. I then looked for store for a bathing suit but  your wasn't much out there with in walking distance.    came back to the hotel and crashed Nice and hard. I was exhausted and bloated. Around 5:45 PM Alice   nd Mimi came in and said they're going out to eat and I could stay here if I wanted but I wanted to hang out. So I showered and put it in  change your clothes on.  I do feel like a new man. We are heading to Santa Barbara to see my other niece with her sister and have  dinner. It's a 45 minute drive. We made it after about an hour drive and   t's all Hannah. We then went to this place called Kyle's kitchen. The kid is actually REAL. We saw the Kyle   hat this place is named after. It's basically a burger and salad place but it seems pretty  laid-back and kind a fun place. Well after we ate we had it on out and Alice noticed there was    red light on warning us to stop driving because of the brake electronics. We pulled   ver near a liquor store and got soda and cigarettes. I got a Yorba Mate  ginger grapefruit. It's pretty good. It's about 10:00 PM I'm going to wait for the car to   ool see if that warning lights still shows up. Definitely through things a little  bit of a loop if you have to get the car towed all the way to San Diego and back to Ventura We   took Uber from the liquor store where we broke down back to the Marriott. We then   elaxed and made arrangements for tomorrow. We need to set the alarm for 6 AM since we   ave to leave the hotel by 7:30 am. The graduation starts at 9am now it's time to crash.
