Monday, December 22: Millbourne to Philly. Dorchester to Yoga.

This morning I woke up in Melbourne PA. I didn’t have any milk so I really couldn’t have any breakfast so I just got dressed watch a little 

videos and threw the trash out. I caught the train just in nick of time and got the Mike’s around 9 AM. Once I got the Mike’s really didn’t do much 

except I ate two of my nutrition bars that I had kept and had a super coffee cause I was pretty sleepy. Mike and I talked a little bit and I threw out some trash. Next thing you know it was almost 10:15 AM and

I had an appointment at 10:30 AM. They have rules that if I missed the appointment, they would charge me 100 bucks extra. So I showed up for that

and found out that my psychiatrist is moving to Vegas or a suburb of Vegas called Henderson Nevada. She will commute back to Philly once a quarter for a little while, so I will see her in March even 

though she’s living in Vegas. That was a weird thing to hear. After that, I went to Mary’s to fetch my Simpson’s holiday T-shirt. While I was there I shaved 

and we hung out for a little while. It was a nice break. It was fun. Just when I left Mike said he has a delivery of oxygen supplies or something from the 

doctor. It’s now 12:56 PM. I also have to leave Mike’s no later than 330 so we can show our T-shirts. Well, it’s 3:33 PM. I left exactly at 3:31 PM because I’m meeting Mary Early to wear our matching 

Simpson holiday T-shirts that we bought last weekend. So we’re gonna meet outside the studio. Anyway, Mike and I agree we’ll get stuff done I did a little bit of bathroom cleanup and carried out the trash and headed on my way to Byron‘s 4 PM class. Well, Mary and I met it outside the door and got her coats unzipped and ready to show off our Simpson family holiday T-shirts . We went upstairs and Byron and Tina. We’re both there which was perfect. We took off her coats and they really liked 


the T-shirts. Byron took a couple pictures of us posing in the T-shirt. I like it except it looks like I have a big gut. Then we proceeded to go to Byron‘s 4 o’clock class which was nice size crowd. My left shoulder was very tired, but I made it through the woman 

next to me is it did two of the poses for Byron that was interesting. Afterwards Mary  and I hung out for quite a while and realized it was 6:38 PM so I went straight to the meeting from there now I’m going to have mimosas for dinner and I’m really 



hungry and I am so glad it’s that I’m indoors and not out in the cold.  What we watched the three part law and order on season season seven it was great. John in your car got my gift of the SEPTA shirt. I can’t believe it made it on time.

Monday, November 17: Millbourne to Philly. Mike’s appt. $ Yoga.

Today I woke up in Millbourne Pennsylvania had my cereal packed up my stuff and headed on down via SEPTA to Philadelphia where I work with my friend Mike. I showed up about a half hour

late as I tend to do on Mondays because the commute takes a while, and I’m very sleepy on Monday mornings. Anyhow, the commute was not eventful. The train just didn’t stop at Walnut-Locust. 

Got the Mike and I talked a lot. I had a little extra food Yogurt, and a banana. It’s now 11:35 AM and I’m going to the CVS to fetch stuff for Mike before his ride shows up at 12:15 AM to take him

to his 1 o’clock doctors appointment at 800 Walnut St. well, I got Micah’s food and a iced tea for me and I decided to change my profile photo to my camel pose. I’m not used to being a big self promoter

like that but that’s shit. Fuck it. It was actually a good pose and not every day I can do the pose that well. Anyhow, it’s 1153. The easy part of my day is over and now we have to negotiate rides. Oh, he’s

actually getting a ride and I wait while my grinch at his doctors appointment. Oh well, I’m getting paid so no need to bitch. Bad news for 

seniors or anyone on Medicare or going to be on Medicare soon. The Medicare premium went up to $202.50. That is a 9.7% increase! The cost of living adjustment or cola went up 2.8% so you can do the

math. It’ll be $300 in five years at the rate it’s going. Well, Mike had his hand looked at and I talked to Alice about Mom’s situation. Basically it’s a good thing cause she’ll get more empathetic care and

also not go through horrible procedures at her age at 96 years old. Allison and I talked for a while and she knows I was getting kind of Ramy 

and bitchy so that reminded me I better eat lunch so I got a nice vegan wrap which is very tasty and will fill me up. It’s 1:54 PM Mike’s getting 


an x-ray of his neck. I could hear him grunting in the other room. Well, that x-ray didn’t take long so we’re gonna wait for outside for his 2:30 PM to 2:45 PM ride back to his place. Glad I had

that vegan sandwich and that there’s a restroom real close by. Anyhow, we got at Mike’s close to 3 PM so it’s always good to schedule early. When I went to the local CVS to try 


to get a hat cause Mary said CVS has hats for $7.99. But this CVS doesn’t have any. They still have umbrellas, but they don’t have hats. And in bad news on the SEPTA fun the union representing the drivers and trolley 

operators voted to authorize a strike if the negotiations breakdown. I don’t know where they’re gonna find the money since they were crying poured to Harrisburg and then they had to use their reserve


funds cause the state legislature refused the fund SEPTA enough. OK well it’s 3:30 PM. Good to go to yoga class now. Trump says he 

would sign any legislation to open up the Epstein files if Congress passes it. Trump says he would sign any legislation that Congress passes to open up the Epstein files. I just don’t trust the Republicans

 to do the right thing. Especially I don’t trust the US Senate, which doesn’t seem to have any Republican defender defectors at all. We’ll see. Anyhow, I went to Byron‘s 4 PM 75 minute class. Who’s 

a good class but I did struggle and I was breathing pretty heavy there but I did a nice trios. I wish I was very proud of the fact that Byron said I did a nice job in that pose cause this one pose that I can kind of push and do well on it keep trying. Unlike the balancing poses which I struggle with where you can’t just force Balance. We hung out at the studio for a while and then Mary and I walked back to her place with our samosas in 

hand and now I’m going to the MONDAY Night Beginners. Well, the meeting was about routine and a lot 



of people shared, and it was a spirited meeting. We then had our business meeting and I will link if my role is the guy who orders coins, and new member packets, which was fine. I met the woman who’s gonna do the job and handed her a card to the token shop. And then went to the corner store right near the Dorchester and got iced tea eat bananas, and a Pepsi.
