Saturday, April 5: Protest and Yoga @ HYP

After going to bed pretty early I had a bit of a fitful sleep but overall I got enough rest and the alarm went off at 10:30.  We eventually got


up and had a delicious breakfast with bacon and eggs. I had to get more bacon at  Maxes because the convenience store didn’t have

any. It’s now 1257. We’re hoping to go to the frame shop and to a protest that’s
going on City Hall this afternoon 

from 12 noon to 3 PM. well, we decided to skip this frame shop and go directly to the Hands Off protest. We walked all the way up from Mary’s house to 6 and market Street

 with the national constitution center was located. We saw a lot of signs and people walking back from the independent small area. We then got to the protest and

 saw Madiline Dean and the head of the post post office union. Ran into somebody I know from choir and bought a button from these women from Planned

 Parenthood. it was really very well attended. Also noticed there are a lot of pedestrians in the whole tire way walking up there. There’s a nice walk. We then decided

 we would catch the market Frankford line back from fifth and Market to 15th and market. We then walk to the CVS. I got two large Gatorade, 150% off, which 

is good because that’s overpriced for sure. We then came back to 

Mary’s. I got a banana and I charged up my phone. I also posted

 something on Facebook and Mary did as well. We’re headed to the 4 o’clock class. It’s now 3:36 PM. It is cool and cloudy but at least it’s not raining outside. This 
is good for everyone involved with walking and living. Well, we just looked up the schedule and Carey’s teaching class today instead of Mia. When we walked in the studio, Byron was giving tips on Carey teaching she doesn’t teach that much anymore. I was going over it and we saw Tina as well. 3:55 PM,

 gotta go. The class was fine. It was pretty crowded at one point the windows

 open and the room actually got cold.l I also got just My 30 day challenge T-shirt

 today hooray. I will wear that one with pride and put the other one in the T-shirt 

museum that I have established for some reason. Anyhow, 7:42 PM I’m about 

to pick up some food. Well, we had our food and 
watching episode of Law and order which was very good of course. It’s now 10:54 PM. It’s time to head for the bed. it was a nice eventful day today and the rain 
held off, which was excellent!! Tomorrow Sunday, which is a traditional day of rest and seeing mom. I hope to see Wes, but I doubt that and my brother. He’s very reliable about seeing mom on Sundays 

Sunday, March 27: Protest, Cars, Oscars get Violent

Good morning everybody I got up pretty early cause I had a decent night of sleep. And I’m eating breakfast Alice came back from Mimi’s  

and she made some of her delicious French toast and I checked out a little bit of the New York Times Sunday edition that 

she gets every week. I enjoyed looking at it. One of the articles predicts another wave. I’ve been reading about that on TikTok 

for the last three weeks. It’s coming it’s just a matter of how bad it’s going to be.

 Hopefully it’ll hold off until I get back. Anyhow until 1130 we’re at 

us a sidewalk supporting the Ukraine in Poway on Poway Road. The 
protest ended and we went to get some Diet Coke and kill time. I took a bunch of photos and shared them with a few others who 

were there. After words we were right near her used car lot and we decided for the hell of it we will go to this used car lot and see what
 kind of deals they have a family. Boy oh boy! Boy oh boy! That used car prices were absolutely worse than I even imagine. They were trying to sell a 2006 jeep I think it’s the wrangler the smallest one for 20 4K and it has 40,000 miles next we went to Toyota and they didn’t have any in the lot but you can order 

some also told us would be to lease one apparently as long as you drive don’t drive over 12,000 miles the leasing of the car seems to be  the best deal financially. I’m 

afraid to enter into a lease just because I’m kind of afraid to make a commitment that way but if I rent a car for one weekend that’s $300 so do either lease or just f-ing wait.  We next went to him Cooper dealership 

and they sell the mini coopers etc. This is the place where she bought her car 10 years ago. They also had no cars except for one. Obviously I’m not gonna spend 32,000 or more on a car that’s 

not going happening. Next we went to a Greek restaurant models likes. I was here before when I last visited it was very tasty the Gyro head all lamb& no filler. I got home 

around 4:30 PM and I’m not sitting out in the front porch relaxing in the shade. I can actually read the phone in the shade in the sunlight. Well, Alice went 



upstairs and I just read some newspaper and looked at in TikTok. I noticed people were commenting about the Oscars and, yes the
Internet blew
 up when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock. There a whole 
bunch opinions about that. All I can say is he really didn’t need to have to hit the guy on stage he could’ve done handled it a different way. Anyhow the day was interesting, we’ll see what happens next.
