Wednesday September 2: Mike’s Apt. Yoga and Yin.

Good morning I woke up after sleeping pretty well I must say. First thing I need to do is I ate breakfast and plan my day with Mary. I did went off to Mike’s. Once I got the Mike’s, it was time to do his laundry since he had a ton of laundry. So I got started on that did some cleanup. I still yet have to pick up some scripts. First thing had to be done was Mike had an appointment scheduled for 1:20 PM the bride was supposed to come in at 12:30 PM. Took like a little to get dressed. He suspenders got stuck in the wheelchair that delay things and then the ride called and we just caught the ride at time out to 3737 Market. That’s in university city Penn doesn’t have a spine specialist in Center city but they have one out here in University City. I myself do not like coming out this way because it’s a long ass ride. Anyway, we got here and I was able to get to the appointment. Well I have to use a wheelchair and truck that up the elevator, which was nice. My guest may stay with them so the Dr saw Mike and brought two residence with him so there was two women looking at Mike as a doctor. Explain that Mike has severe arthritis of his neck so Dr made a prescription for him to do a rehab. The only ones to give rides are not in Center City. The rides service is good because we don’t have to go through his shared ride with “Mora” the AI assistant who’s awful. So we’ll see what happens here about this? Rehab doctor says arthritis never goes away and we all will get it. That was cheerful news. Well, anyway, we waited about 40 minutes and got a ride back to Center City. First thing Mike wanted to do is for me to pick up his scripts at the alternative pharmacy and get him a sandwich but I said how about two pizza slices it’ll be cheaper so he’s getting two pizza slices cause he’s tired of eating the same thing. Anyhow, it’s 3:36 PM today is my late day. The rain has stopped and I’m gonna wash a set of dishes and fill his ice trays and then head back to the Dorchester &  maybe get a nap in before doing a doubleheader of 75 minute class and yen.. Miah is teaching me in class so I guess Honaleh is away on vacation. We have not seen her in a couple weeks. Well, dance classes is very good. There are some new people in the class and it wasn’t as hot and humid as yesterday. I think I did OK. My knee was acting a little funny but overall wasn’t too bad I work through it. Afterwards we had Yin with Miah. We haven’t had a in class with her in quite some time. It was a nice thing to come back to. It was really packed because of the 30 day challenge.  Who was a very relaxing easy-going class I didn’t have any problems with doing the poses, which was nice. Miah helped me with one of them, which was cool. Afterwards we came back and decided we’d order Indian since we’re running a little late tonight.

Thursday, August 27: Mike’s Phone & Computer

Well, today was the day to get a ride between Mike’s place at 1426 Lombard all the way up to 20th between Lombard and Pine to get his computer and his phone fixed. We first went outside at 9:30 waiting for the Uber to come over since we wouldn’t have any idea when he was showing up because Mike has no phone. So we waited for a bit and the guy did drive by and call for us so that was very good. We then got a ride to the Computer store. We found out that the Computer store wasn’t open till 10 so we sat outside for 15 minutes and then the guy did open and we first gave him the computer and found out the software wasn’t installed proper so we had to reinstall it twice to get it fixed. He checked it the first time none of the ports were working so we had to redo it. He was very patient and then he told us what we already knew the poor on this stupid cheap phone was inoperable. So he charged me $60 to get the computer reinstalled. I save four dollars paying in cash. Once we got that done, Mary had at us and we walked over to the hardware store to pick up a screen to protect the computer against possible roach infestation, which happened to the last Computer. We got to the hardware store just before the skies opened up. We hung out and talked for a bit waiting for the rain to calm down, and then we called another Uber that I paid for since the ride back from the place went by because we were way late. We got back up and Mike got the computer to work at long last. After that, the infusion supply lady  called to complain that she had stopped by earlier we thought she was the nurse but use some housewife from Northeast Philly. We finally picked. that up I got a big order from Amazon and now it’s already 3:01 PM. Yeah, so I caught up on yesterday‘s blog post and wrote up today’s blog post in the last half hour trying to get it together before I go to yoga at 4 o’clock. Meanwhile, the promotion for today’s yoga class has a picture of a group of us, which includes Mary and I during one of the posture clinic classes. That was the one where one particular person hijacked the class. It was pretty funny to us. It was very strange, but it was informative. Anyhow, the rain is finally calmed down. Maybe I won’t get wet on the way to my 4 o’clock class that would be really good. Well, Shalice taught the class and boy that he studio with humid as all get out. Made the class tougher in that way. Afterwards we managed to dodge the super cloud burst that reappeared and came home a little damp but not terribly wet.. We got back to Mary’s after we went to Max‘s and picked up a thing of cheese for her to cook up the stuffed peppers that she prepared. They are ready to be cooked in the oven currently. It is now 7:49 PM and I’m walking to catch the seven bus to Fairmount for my meeting which starts at 8:15. Google maps says the bus will be a minute early and arrive at 22nd Locust at 7:51 PM. So far the rain held off for now. We’ll see what happens later on tonight. that means pretty good not a new people who shared which was nice. I discovered that the Route 49 bus doesn’t stop by anymore at this hour so I can get back about the same time but I have to walk a little further to catch the bus change is difficult to times, but it’s not that bad.
