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.

Thursday, July 30: Coffee. Work, Yoga & Meeting

Good day boys and girls today is Thursday the second to last day of July. July is rapidly coming to an end. I got up at 8:00 AM which caused me to be very late to Mike’s. I had breakfast at home and scooted on down to Mike’s the school bus that carries all the privileged kids was way gone. That bus picks up them from the ethical society. I get a meeting there on Mondays. Anyway, got the Mike still a little bit of cleanup and talked for a bit. I then went to CVS to pick up some items and a prescription that he had filled at the old CVS on 15th and Spruce. I still predict it’ll be closed in a year to 18 months due to shoplifting. That’s what the Wawa uses as an excuse to close all their stores in town. Anyhow, I then went to Amazon and ordered some items to be delivered to Mary’s place since I finally got my pension check in my paycheck from work. I went ahead and paid as much as I could offer for the cards. Pat will be cashing the rent check on the First of August. I’ve been decided later on to get some iced coffee and it was a nice walk down Broad Street boy oh boy those clouds look really threatening. Anyhow, today is a 90 minute yoga along with a meeting with CODA that starts at 8:15 PM. Mike is going out of the way to help his cousin with some De stuff with the government. He’s very good at helping out his desperate family members. I wish his sisters would do the same for him, but I digress. It’s 3:13 PM now trying to get this blog started in the photos processed. The abuse that Dr. Fauci took from Republican was absolutely shameful. The relitigating Covid because they really have nothing else to distract. The communist manual failed to work so now they’re trying to make people a.k.a. their base mad at Fauci about Covid. What a bunch of assholes. Well, I’m heading down to Shalice’s 4 PM class today. It’s cloudy but it doesn’t look like it’s going to rain in that soon which is good. I’ll see how the coffee blends in, but at least I got an icy to drink. I like having something to drink right before class I think that it really helps me out. Well, we did have a good class with Charlize today. My leg felt a little tight, but overall the class went pretty well. She was very helpful to both Mary and myself when it came to our our leg and knee issues that have cropped up over the last couple of weeks. It was a good class. We then left and came back to the Dorchester and we relaxed took a short nap. Then then I caught the seven bus to the CODA meeting and. I made it on time even though the bus was about 10 minutes late. It was it was a decent meeting. They announced also that that business meeting will be held next week. Business meetings I don’t really look forward to them that much. Anyhow, I got back and picked up a round of Indian food. That was good. We then talked for a little while. Watched one episode of Law and order. Mark expected to be a sunny day. Tomorrow is the last day of July and then we enter August what they call a dog days of August. Next week I’ve officially apply for Medicare because it’s three months before my 65th birthday. That should be interesting my life Niece starting to act up a little bit more because I don’t know I have a muscle that’s really tight attending or could be sciatica. I don’t know but we’ll monitor that stuff he leaves next week and we’re flying to California. And we’re gonna go on a retreat in Mexico in mid February.
