Friday, February 27: Filing Taxes, Sunny, Yoga

Good day everybody!  I woke up and got myself. A breakfast sandwich came down to Mike’s. We had a gay old time that’s for sure. Anyhow, Nicole did come over a little after 9 o’clock and asked Mike some really good questions. She’s very very thorough. Mike got some insights from her. Anyhow, I then decided I wanted to go to Melbourne bring a couple things down and pick up a couple things. Also decided I would do my taxes 

as well. I was down there. I saw Pat for about two seconds before he woke up and went back to work. It took me a little while to do the taxes.The TurboTax was kind of weird this year, but I got through it and they didn’t charge me to use their service they kept pushing me to the upgrade, but I kept turning it down. They also want you to use credit karma. I couldn’t do the tax state tax at the same time. I went back into the state tax and they wanted me to go into browser and that’s what I did. I saved the 
tax return and sent myself a copy. Anyhow, I finally got that done collected some items and took the train the market Frankford line back to Center City 
and proceeded to walk up 15th St. to CVS to get Mike some stuff. I then went to. Mike’s. When I got the Mike’s Tony was just about to leave after getting Mike through his paces. Mike walked 100 feet three times. This is an improvement for sure. After that, it did a couple quick things & and got ready to go 
to Kaitlyn‘s 4 o’clock class. She was substituting today. Class was very good. It wasn’t that crowded at all. Had plenty of space. She’s a very good instructor. I don’t get to be in her classes that often but she’ll be teaching also Saturday tomorrow as well. Anyhow, afterwards, we hung out at the studio for a while talk to Hayim and about his teeth issues and got us talking about my tooth issue and implant issue. Anyway, we got back 

and decided we’d have pasta, but we decided to hang out instead and then have some pasta ha ha! We had the pasta and watch Law and order and then watch a couple funny monologues from Stephen Colbert.

Wednesday, February 25: Implant Estimate. REST

This morning I woke up around 7:45 AM but I laid around till close to 8 AM. I had cereal and got the Mike’s around 9 o’clock. It was fairly mild. It was about 36° when I left the door. The snow is melting pretty quickly definitely compared to the last snowstorm. I went to Mike’s. We chatted a little bit and then I went to the specialist to get a price on how much implantswould be. Mind you this is only the cost of putting in a bone graft and the implant. It does not include putting in the crowns which the regular Dentest would put in. The total was about $6200. The dental plan only covered about $350. That was for the extraction. So when you add in the crowns which are approximately $1900 it’s a pretty pricey proposition. Anyhow, I’m gonna sit on that and think about it a while. This is a very big commitment because once he does the extraction in a bone graft you gotta let your mouth heal for 3️⃣ months before
finishing it off. Anyhow, after that I went to CVS and did errands for Mike at the CVS. He had no scripts it’s now 12:49 PM. I’m going to be seeing Dr. Hockenberry, at 2 PM. Then it’s off to Yoga butnot till 5:30 PM class so I’ll be able to take a nap, hopefully when I get to the Dorchester.  Anyhow, finished my appointment is now 3:03 PM. Just told the doctor all the stuff that’s goingon the last 2 1/2 3️⃣ weeks. Then three weeks before that started the whole snow frigid weather bullshit. Anyway half an hour at Mike’s or so, andthen off to the Dorchester to hopefully take a nap. Anyhow, right now 4:18 PM I officially got my full eight hours today. I’m also officially at 7% on my battery. We skipped yoga and napped. It was good. It was really good to just skipped the class. Yes today. I really needed that rest. My body and mind are tired. I feel like in the last year. I really did some aging going on. Well the Parson it’s Turner gave me that first signal and today the beep goes on.
