Sunday October 5: Mom’s, Mike’s Home & Yoga

This morning I got out of bed about 9 o’clock. Mary got herself ready really quick and left before I did, I sat and had cereal & it was quite tasty. I then decided I would take Uber back to my place to meet

the cleaning lady on time at 9:30. I got back at my place at 9:25 since Uber took 15 minutes to

get to the Dorchester. This Uber driver is kind of slow and I got there at my house at 9:25 AM. Turns out the cleaning lady was at least a half hour late by the time she finished and I paid her. I had to take Uber to 

get to my mom’s in time. I got there and showed her some pictures from my trip to the West Coast. She enjoyed that very much. I then took a picture and shared it with the family and we talked a little

bit. Mary called and had really bad service at the café, which is really unacceptable. I then left mom’s when she got time for lunch. I got back and organized a few things and had something to eat. Then 

I had to take care of mother nature and she was raging. Anyway, I decided after about an hour and a half or so I decided to go downtown. I decided I’d look for my electrolyte superior powder

at Mike’s as I was walking towards Mike’s. I see an ambulance parked in front of them and of course I know that has to be Mike in there. Lo and behold it was. I also got to meet his Sunday 

caregiver as well. He seemed like a nice guy, kind of hyped and high energy and very thin. Mike didn’t seem to be in the best spirit and I can understand why. I then left Mike’s and literally ran into Limbo as he 

was walking towards 15th and walnut or wherever he was going. Talk to him for a bit and then talk to Mary and she said she wasn’t able to go to class due to cough from being tired so I’m going to a 4 o’clock 

class which is a 90 minute class which is extra of challenging for my shoulders, especially the first two poses one’s actually a breathing pose, but it’s very hard and it adds up. Boy, Kaitlyn’s yoga 

class was very hard today. It was a 90 minute. It was very humid in there not much air flowing. I was pretty wiped and very sweaty. I finished off my Gatorade right away and finished off my water pretty 

quickly before I left the studio, I decided I wanted to buy a smoothie got one of those and I’m heading back to Mary’s now it’s 622. It’s already starting to get dark. Later on Maryann and I took pictures



 of the moon rising above the building across our window is very cool. And then I decided to take Uber back home. Pat had I had a very unsatisfying meal a kebab. And sent them must’ve changed the cook because the chickpeas had a little flavor and the naan was really bland, etc.. We need to eat half of it.

Sunday, August 3: Visiting mom and Chillin

Today I got up around 8:30 AM and brought my brief my duffel bag with me so I could bring my clothes back from the trip to the West Coast. I then

 had a quick breakfast of cereal, and super coffee. I then caught the 111 bus out to Riddle Village. I visited mom‘s using good spirit. She

 was wearing shorts and a preppy shirt. I showed her pictures of Becky‘s wedding out in the West Coast. She seemed to enjoy them a lot. I shared those

 pictures and then mom had to be going to lunch so I dropped her off at the 

cafeteria and I laughed and caught the 110 bus back towards Melbourne.

 

I mail it out there for a while. I talked to Pat and gave him his check for the rent 

for the next couple months. The rest of the day I just hung out and 

watched YouTube and TikTok and the Phillies beat Detroit two to nothing so they want two out of three of the games which is cool. They’re in first place by a 

game over the Mets. I then watch the YouTube story about the plane that crashed at Baltimore memorial Stadium, December 1976 when Burke Jones was 

the Colts quarterback and they lost badly to the Steelers and nobody got hurt 

from the plane crashing. Overall, 
very quiet lazy day. Tomorrow starts in normal week. Followed by a busy weekend. My muscles are tired and it’s already August a year from now I’ll be applying for Medicare. Can you believe that shit

Sunday July 6: Visiting Mom with Mary

Hello boys and girls today is Sunday. Mary & I got up around 8:30 AM and quickly grabbed coffee and something to eat and then grabbed an Uber to 69th St. 

and we made the bus with about two minutes to spare the bus there pretty quickly I notified Dave that
 I was going Dave Michael. Mary are all at the shore of respect, 

etc.with the mom and hung out for at least half hour and she was very lucid and talked about our childhood and her father and her mothers and stuff like that. 

It was interesting. Anyhow, after we met, we then went to catch the bus back to 
Philadelphia. And realize that none of the buses we’re going to get us 

directed there so we took an Uber to Ocean City coffee Company and decided to take the trolley back to 69th St. trolley came

 after a little bit And went back to Mary’s and I had a little bit of a lunch which was very good. it was leftover Indian food and then headed back to my place 

to start the festivities. I talked on the phone and then finally got to what I was 

supposed to get to. I didn’t find the documents. I was really looking for by. I found a lot of other

 interesting things from my past. Things like bankruptcy, early recovery, 

and the diary about my retreat experience back in 1981. Mary & I started

 talking about next weekend when we’re gonna go to New York. Period I forgot that I had the cleaning person coming and we postpone it to next Sunday. Mary was invited to go to a baby 
shower on that 

same day. So stay tuned about that. I then did some digging real digging into the box of documents. There’s everything from bankruptcy to DUI to AA, etc. but I saved

 a lot of stuff
