Thursday, March 20: Colonoscopy Day


Today I had to wake up at 7:15 AM so I can finish off my MiraLAX Gatorade drink over the next 45 minutes so I could dial that. It kicked in pretty 

efficiently. I must say Marie then woke up at night. We talked for a bit and she went off to a doctor 

appointment. Meanwhile, watched a few videos chip chatted up with Pat and zipped 

up my valuables in my zipper of my coat cause I don’t want you bringing them, but I just want to have my wallet and keys with me. Anyhow, it’s mostly 

cloudy today. It’s supposed to start raining around 8 o’clock tonight. The plan is for Pat to pick me up around 4:30 PM and 

need to stay overnight at Millbourne for the evening. I feel OK considering that I haven’t eaten since Tuesday night at 10:30 PM. I followed


the instructions and asked I’m hoping I feel well enough to do yoga Friday so I can complete the 30 day officially. Hopefully they won’t find

 any problemswith my digestive system. Well, it’s 1:23 PM. I’ve already been called back by the nurse so it’s a good thing I showed up early. They asked me if I when’s the last time

 I ate food and what was the color Of my last bowel movement was it the same Mr. color of the floor? I answered yes. I put all my valuables in my coat pocket zipped up. Seven 4:02 PM looks

 like they found four little polyps that they removed and one large polyp in the ascending colon and I have to come back in a few months and get that removed by a specialist. Fuck me is 

all I can say about that.⬆️ I’m feeling a little chilly and grouchy right now, but other than that, I feel normal. They just moved me to a room that has a window view until my Wright shows up so got to sit here and 

chill out while Pat does setting up for some church. Hit me up 

about 10 after five and the people over at the place had to give them specific instructions to pick me up. You 

can’t just pick them up at the front of the building anymore because that’s all clogged up 

with valet gentleman. Pick me up and it took us about 35 minutes to get out 

of Philly and to Khabbish. I went in and ordered two veggie platters

 and we brought them back to his house. Boys have food good after not eating

 for two days Pat and I talked a bunch and that was really fun after that I hung

 out of his place for a little. I made a suggestion to suggestion to him

 that he sells some of his motorcycles and quit one of his job so 
he can enjoy his hobbies. After that, I 
decided I’d go back to Center city at Mary’s. It would make things a lot more fun than easy togo to work tomorrow.

Wednesday March 5: Canceled Appt. 3X Yoga


Today I had to get up at 5:30 AM because Mike was having a procedure for his heart. I slept pretty well but obviously not enough sleep so 
I wobbled 

over to Mike’s after eating some cereal. We called the Uber and the Uber driver parked a little Sideways so he completely blocked traffic and one guy yelled at me and


the other guy was honking his ass off. We did manage to get to Pennsylvania hospital. He got all checked in and it at 8:50 AM. They called me told me that they canceled his
appointment 

because he was having an issue and right before the operation. So we probably have to do something else I don’t know but at least I 
know he’s getting out and I could 

go to Mary’s and crash like a crazy man hopefully. Anyhow, it’s now 10:35 PM Eastern standard time. Daylight 
saving time coming up Sunday hooray! Anyway, got back to 

Mike’s eat breakfast and I decided fuck it. I’m gonna go to the 11 o’clock 60 minute class with Tina. Since my next classes until 530 and
I get out of work early, it seemed 

like an opportune time. The weather is definitely changing cause we’re getting very high winds and then it’s going to rain. Generally, we get high winds. it’s not a good sign with the 
weather. Well, I went to the 11 o’clock 60 minute class. It was different. It was good. It was exhausting but I was thankful that it was a 60 minute class not a 90 minute class or even a 75 minute class

 Tina gave me advice to make sure I got enough electrolytesand I got myself a smoothie again to get the green leafy vegetables in me and I’m gonna have lunch and a Pepsi and do my thing and leave. About 2 PM it hasn’t started

 raining yet, but it definitely will happen right now. I’m at 17th and Lombard. I went to CVS got some stuff for Mike and then I came back to Mike’s and dried off my yoga clothes that I had used in my 11 o’clock class.

 Adeline left Mike’s as his coffee was brewing and went to Mary’s place and oh my God I was so tired. I couldn’t wait to lie down so I lied down for a little over
 2️⃣ hours and got a good nap in. I really 

needed that nap. Something fierce. I’ve had a 530 class and then a 7 PM Yin class so I could do the triple that I really need to do because my time is limited due to the fact I have a colonoscopy


 and vacation. 530 class with Dan was good. He had recognized seeing me in the 11 o’clock class and we both laughed and then I went to Yin and Yin was good

 except I was really thirsty. I mean thirsty on Thursday. I had just enough 
water to take some sips and get me through

 the class. Linda will be going away. She won’t be in class for the next for the rest 

of the month. I’m guessing due to stuff. Afterwards, Mary and I 

got some dinner. I drink more drinks and it was all good for the hood, we watch 

the law and order and trying to end went 
to bed decent @ decent hour. Overall wasn’t a bad day. But I found the most exhausting part. Was having
to get up 2️⃣ hours earlier than normal plus do a 

lot of running around. Gets a little hard on the 63 year-old body anyhow March March is on as they say.
