Monday, August 10: Back in Philly.

Good Monday to one and all who care about this day of the week. Well, after a smooth flight back, we arrived in terminal at the Philadelphia International Airport and immediately went to catch an Uber back into Mary’s place. During the plane ride, I attempted to put myself to sleep with YouTube videos about sports and Social Security Benefits. Anyhow, we called an Uber pretty quick and as we were arriving to the Dorchester, there was not one but two broken down buses one right before you get to the Dorchester and one as you turn right onto 19th St. That was a quite a phenomenon then we got to Mary’s and she discovered there’s a leak above her bathtub while this is going on, I decided I would unpack and figure out stuff and that’s what I did. I then took like a quick nap of about five minutes because the guys came in from the repair crew and I said well fuck it. I’ll just head to work on adrenaline and coffee for today. It’s only 816. I’m gonna stop and get a coffee on the way to Mike’s. I got the Mike’s and did my customary cleaning, etc. Had a super coffee as well when I got to Mike’s and then I just so I wanted to go to Mary’s for a bit and I had a feeling I would just end up crashing there but that’s exactly what I did. I think I went to sleep around 11 got up around one p.m. beforehand before I got to Mary I had a bathroom emergency and took care of that at the Starbucks. They even had to knock on the bathroom door but I think I’m all right right now at 1:25 PM. Well, I got back and Mike and order a whole bunch of food so I canceled the order for Akira. I had my regular lunch and Mike’s order came in. He ordered a whole bunch of stuff. So I got it upstairs took care of it and now it’s 3:01 PM Mary has a bad headache. I’m gonna go to yoga anyway I believe I have everything I need. At least I think I do. Anyway, it’s now 346. Tina is teaching today at 4 PM. It’s a 75 minute class. I’m thankful for THAT considering mylack of sleep and flying an airplane all weekend and stuff. Well, I went to the class and it was very challenging. I did more than Tina before class. I ran into Linda before Class and quickly told her we have just got back from our trip over the weekend. I haven’t been that wiped out from a class in a while and I was wiped out. I’m glad I went however. Just took a little while to recover. I knew I wanted to eat the samosas and get ready for bed. We watched sideways the movie about two guys going to wine country drinking and getting a hold of our lives. It’s very well done. I enjoyed it seeing it for the second time.

Monday, August 3: Humid w/Rain. Yoga

Hello boys and girls today is Monday and I woke up to a complete torrential downpour when I look outside the window at the Dorchester so I decided to help with that. I’m taking Uber to Mike’s. I’m not gonna become soaked before I even get there. I went to the Uber website and have this thing called “Uber premium.“ They had a six dollars off of Uber premium so I ended up riding in some large Ford Escalade or explorer whatever those big huge SUV cars are nowadays. So I rode through and it was pouring like crazy by the time I got the Mike’s it settled down a little bit, but it rained for a while then the sun came out when I was going to CVS to do an errand for him then by the time I was done that Aaron it started to rain again. Mike did do his exercises today which was good. It wasn’t a day to go out for Abby’s reasons. Anyhow, three or 1 PM I just went to the alternative pharmacy called Health South. They had 3️⃣ scripts done but not the other two. I’m going to drink another icy I guess and get ready for 4 PM Yoga with Dan fire teaching for a change on Monday. Hopefully the samosas will be there as well. Well south 3:39 PM I’m heading to 4 PM class with Dan. The weather cleared up from the miserable rain we had this morning and I said my goodbyes to Mike signed out and talked to Mary. Believe it or not we’ll be flying out to California this Friday and coming back very early Monday morning of next week. Meanwhile, I have a MONDAY Night Beginners meeting at 6:45 PM, but we’re gonna be going to CVS to pick up a script. Mary has waiting. anyhow, we went to Dan’s class because byron took the afternoon off. It was a good class as usual for for Dan and the mimosas are back on Monday and we picked up three of them from Maryann two of them for me and I’m heading to my MONDAY Night Beginners meeting. I actually have choir practice tomorrow and a 7 AM meeting at the same place at the ethical Society right across from Mary’s house. well lo and behold I went to that MONDAY Night Beginners and it was like a different meeting very dynamic group. Some of the people usually show up weren’t there and bunch of people I’ve never seen before showed up there was one guy was his first AA meeting ever so it was pretty cool. I then went to the convenience store and got some iced teas and Pepsi’s for the supply. We watched two episodes of Law and order and Mary figured out our plans for California starting on Friday and I’m gonna get up early for the first new AA meeting. I’ve been to in many years.
