Monday August 16th: Bad Covid News, Working and Walking

I woke up this morning as usual I was very tired. I was tired from 

 he weekend. That’s pretty normal for me these days. Anyhow I slept in a little bit and then went ahead and started working. I got an  unexpected report and that took a lot of my time 

 & effort. I wasn’t able to get my daily stuff done. I had to return the rental car at the same time I was dealing with personal stuff for my supervisor called twice. I got it returned successfully and got that out-of-the-way. Anyhow, I decided I wouldn’t go to yoga and instead right at 5 o’clock I had to take a nap.I was so exhausted I crashed really hard. I fortunately did 

 et up at 7:30 PM. I set the alarm for 7:15 AM so Lord knows I probably could’ve slept all the way till midnight then realized I overslept. I then decided I needed to take a walk for my health so I 

 alked around the compound and that was nice. The rain held off. It looked like it was going to rain but it never did. I think came home and talked on the phone for a while had
some dinner and 

 hought about the old days no actually didn’t think about the old days at all. I was just thinking
 the bad news about the Taliban taking over Afghanistan and late news that we’re gonna need a booster shot eight months after my vaccination so that is approximately September. So that’s high on my list to get shit done is get my booster shot before November.

Saturday, August 14: A Weird Day. Mail Delivery

This morning I woke up and ahead of funny request from somebody I walked out for. This person wanted me to pick up a piece of mail

 that was delivered while she was away in Minnesota and resend it to her in Minnesota via FedEx or UPS. It was strange but doable. Well, I finally got my butt in gear after being on the phone for a little while and being very tired. I went down and went to the Knockbox Café and got myself one of my iced coffee‘s I like. I noticed The mask mandate while I was there and got my coffee. I then walked down to 3610 market where I went
 to the FedEx. I had 

 myself a long phone conversation while I was at the FedEx. The cost of the package was about $35 for two days of delivery. I got that delivery done and decided I 
could head down to Indian store and get some quick Indian food so I can go home eat and then take my nap and shower. I found
out that the international store has dinners that look a lot less greasy 

 han the Kabobish  dinners. I went there and got a couple meals. I was going 

 o keep walking down Walnut Street till a bus showed up. I alked for a while then finally

 the 21 bus showed up and I took that bus up to Melbourne/upper Darby. I got home and immediately had 

some Indian food and after that I took a shower and took a nice glorious relaxing love nap. After I got up which was about 9:30 PM or so I talked on the 
phone for a while. There were things discussed back-and-forth. Play then took another shower so I wouldn’t
 have to deal with that when
I had to get up tomorrow. I know I’m gonna be tired otherwise. I’ll probably be tired anyway that’s how I roll man

Thursday, August 12: The Delta Variant, Heat Wave & Yoga l

I woke up this morning feeling pretty tired but not too bad. Hi then got myself some breakfast ate the smoothie that I got from Lynne and lumber on to work. It 
as a long 500 yards but I made it. I plugged away at work. The work came steady but not too fast. I had 
ne case I just couldn’t make the referral to Alex. I tried every which Way but I couldn’t do it. I ended up sending it to my supervisor. I didn’t et a response back  but I’ll wait Jesus fuck tomorrow. Oh right my supervisor is not in tomorrow so Monday it’ll be. Anyhow I got to see Pat a couple times and he 
told me that some homeless dude invaded

 his work and the place almost blew up from gas because  and somebody forgot 

 o lock the door homeless dude came in and turned the oven on and the gas was on as well. Between that 

his gargoyle almost falling down he working in a hazardous place 

 an. Anyhow I eat lunch after the smoothie kind of made me nauseous even though I was in really nice air

 conditioning all day. I then took a nap and  finished off work and then committee in the 93° heat to Center

 city for my yoga class. I even bought my own mat with me. Well 

 he Delta variant is spreading like wildfire and new mandated to come around the 

corner because of this. I talked about that yesterday. This article talks about we’re gonna go from here. They predict what might happen. It’s from the Atlantic magazine. Oh boy it’s 5:25 PM gotta  go. I went to class and there was only four people
 in there which I think really reduce the amount of heat that was in the floor. I also think it was just not as 
hot as it was several days before hand. There is a new teacher there 
who is young and but she did a pretty good pretty good class. I was hot as usual and went back towards the train after class.

Tuesday, August 3: A Slower Day to Yoga

I woke up today feeling a whole lot better because I slept better. Hi then 

 proceeded to get to work signing my computer and make myself breakfast & a  smoothie. Because of Yesterdays effort to see Sam some of this work out-of-the-way today I could move at a much slower 
and steady pace. I thought about going into West Philly and sipping coffee



 but I decided against that. I was feeling a little too lazy to do that. I caught up with 

 my reports to the best of my ability and the provider information was 

 ent out. I got a couple more reverse referrals but it was only three of them today. 
 then I ate lunch and went to the Indian store to get some different kinds of foods for my lunch. Good day I’m back. I did my work and then 

  decided I would go to class. I did have some in trepidation about it. I expressed 

 hat to a couple of friends. I decided to go and I would at least ask if anything

 is changed due to the latest. Stats on the delta variant. Anyway, I signed

 off from work and headed out on the train. 
asn’t too crowded and I arrived and talk to Larry on the phone for a bit while I was walking. I went to class and fortunate wasn’t crowded. I strategically made sure I was at 

least 6 feet away from  people in the back corner. Seems like the safest place to be. There was a pouch 10 or 11 people there. Classes are packed like they were before the pandemic. If they 

 ecome that packed I’m not going to pack classes. I think my strategy is to try to go to oddball times will 
have less people. I’m not sure what eyeball times

 are people have all different kinds of schedules etc. well I got home and was pretty hungry and I  chowed down
on a whole mess of pasta. I’m going to see. 

 nyway I have the pasta talked on the phone a little bit and hopefully I can make some phone calls I’ve been needing to make. So far
this week has been a little less spastic than last week. Which is a good thing. I 
think I’ve decided
what I’m gonna do with my retirement situation. I’m going to try not to complicate it more than needs to be.
