07/31/25 Thursday 4:35 P.M.  I rested.  I chatted with a friend.  I went outside.  I did not get any mail.

07/31/25 Thursday 3:20 P.M.  I ate seven Danish butter cookies.  A programmer I met called me up at 2 A.M.  He had moved from Greenwich to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and then to Lincoln, New Hampshire.  I woke up at noon.  I ate my usual breakfast of pineapple chunks, fruit cocktail, Jimmy Dean sausage egg and cheese croissant, two English muffins with Smart Balance spread, diet cranberry juice, and an instant coffee inside.  I rested until 3 P.M.

07/30/25 Wednesday 10:50 P.M.  I channel surfed.  I chatted with a relative.

I missed the storm downtown today https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/ct-storms-weather-wednesday-wind-rain-hail-20794834.php

I will now shut down the HP laptop, and I will go to bed.

07/30/25 Wednesday 9:45 P.M. Fred Von Mierers, once had me take Helen Kress Williams to the New York Metropolitan Opera, and she paid for the head table at the Opera Guild.  However, being frugal, we took a New York City bus round trip.  The twin brother of my Lake Forest College roommate named Tom McMurray had a studio apartment on East 13th Street near www.forbes.com across the street from Astis restaurant which had a lot of opera stars working as waiters.

07/30/25 Wednesday 9:40 P.M. The reason people from Syracuse got to travel was General Electric made jet engines there.  They also made Chrysler automobiles and Carrier air conditioners there.  A Colonel Blair also once had a State Department training school there.  Other than driving down or up the New York Thruway, I have never explored Syracuse, New York.  I do know they can get fifteen feet of snow there in the winter, so there were some people from there down in Key West around Jimmy Eldert.  The Eldert family are one of the founding Dutch families of New Amsterdam, which Helen Kress Williams with her connections knew.

07/30/25 Wednesday 9:20 P.M.  Around October 1973, I was fired from being a waiter at Boodles in Greenwich.  I had a used blue Volvo sedan that I had bought from Dave Peabody in Greenwich with a loan from Mr. Dupont at the Union Bank in Darien.  I had read in the New York Times that the European Jet people were going to the Le Jardin discothèque in Manhattan near Times Square.  I went there, and I met Fred Von Mierers who showed me his apartment at 420 East 49th Street.  The following day in the Eugina Shepard society column Fred was pictured shaking hands with Nelson Rockefeller.  The next time I saw Fred, he told me was designing a beach cabana for Nelson Rockefeller at his beach house in Bermuda.  Shortly there after, Fred and I met Jimmy Eldert from Syracuse at Le Jardin.  Jimmy had hitch hiked to New York City, but he told us his parents followed him.  Later on, I met Tim Grant, and he knew Sandy Carlson that ran the Everson Art Museum in Syracuse.  Sandy knew Jim Eldert too.  Later on I found Sandy a studio apartment on East 70th Street next to the Explorers Club. Sandy and Tim Grant both knew each other from Temple University in Philadelphia.  Sandy had me go to an Art Gallery opening on East 67th Street on the Galley he was running in Manhattan, and there I saw W. Averill Harriman with an older woman whom might have been his sister.  Sandy later moved to Paris to run a gallery there.  George Gordon Cary is the nephew of W. Averill Harriman's sister who lived out at Sands Point, Long Island and kept an apartment on East 72nd Street, where I once stayed with George.

07/30/25 Wednesday 8:45 P.M.  The people I met in Manhattan never visited me in Greenwich to see how I lived simply in back country.  However, once on the Fourth of July around 1974, Tim Grant and Juan Montoya https://juanmontoyadesign.com/  did visit, and I took them out to lunch at the Greenwich Country Club.  I guess Greenwich people are not too important in Manhattan compared to the people there with their North Shore Long Island view points.

07/30/25 Wednesday 8:35 P.M. Jimmy Eldert might have had British or Scottish connections at one time.  One time on Nantucket, I saw him wearing a St. Andrews University T Shirt.  Another time, he told me had worked at Sandringham, but I do not know in what capacity.  Jimmy Eldert lived near Billy Baldwin out on Nantucket, and Billy Baldwin knew the Duke of Windsor.

Well, I get a Christmas Card every year from the British Sovereign, if I send them a Christmas card.  It takes two to three months for it to come, so it is like snail mail.

Off Netflix, I watched series 1 episodes 3 and 4 of, "Untamed."

I drank an instant coffee midway through.

07/30/25 Wednesday 6:05 P.M. I am about to eat a 11.5 ounce Marie Callender chicken teriyaki bowl with a 15 ounce can of sweet peas with Smart Balance spread and a 12 ounce glass of www.coke.com Zero Sugar.

I went through http://scott-mike.com/bf.htm .

The model number of my HP laptop is 5CD1320SZR

I will now dress and go downtown.  A good hot weather book is, "To Kill a Mockingbird," by Harper Lee.

07/29/25 Tuesday 2:30 P.M.  The first time I went to Nantucket I think was the summer of 1969, when my family had moved to Wellesley.  I went to the beach, at the Salty Dog bar, where I was drinking a beer on Main Street, I ran into my roommate that previous year at Lake Forest College named Guy Erdman.  I recall, I also met up with people from Greenwich Country Day school, and one of them George Witbold had an apartment on Orange street, where they put me up for the night.  I recall returning to Nantucket in the summer of 1971 with Ian Emberson whose father worked for British Airways.  He went surfing at Surside.  We only stay for a day.  I recall maybe in between those days going out to Nantucket, and a family with a Bunk House near the Jettes beach put me up.  They met me when I arrived off the ferry.  Oie Wood from Cataumet called ahead to have them meet me.  I did not finally return to Nantucket until I hitchhiked up there from Greenwich in July 1975, and I then camped out for a couple of weeks at Fairgrounds Road.  In Nantucket, if you don't have money, like every place else, they are not too hospitable.

07/29/25 Tuesday 2:10 P.M.  I sprayed some WD 40 on the toilet tank water lever device, so the toilet now works for now.

07/29/25 Tuesday 2:05 P.M.  I rested until 2 P.M.  The toilet is malfunctioning again.  I will leave the tank lid off to push the plunger to get it to work.  I will now drink an instant coffee. 

07/29/25 Tuesday 12:15 P.M.  I woke up at 9 A.M.  I ate my usual breakfast of pineapple chunks, fruit cocktail, Jimmy Dean sausage egg and cheese croissant, two English muffins with Smart Balance spread, diet cranberry juice, and an instant coffee inside.  I rested until noon.

07/28/25 Monday 9:00 P.M.  I chatted with a friend.  Off Netflix, I watched series 1 episodes 1 and 2 of, "Untamed."

I will now shut down the HP laptop computer.  I will eat a yogurt.  I will then go to bed.

07/28/25 Monday 3:40 P.M.  I went to the Family Center, and I enjoyed waiting an hour in the cold air conditioning in the lobby.  The follow up on my lab work by the nurse doctor is to quit taking all of my vitamins and supplements and only take the multivitamin ever two days.  I still take my prescriptions.  All of the vitamins and supplements are too much work on my kidneys.  Also I am supposed to drink at least three classes of water a day to flush out my kidneys.  Also the nurse doctor sent me to 500 West Putnam Avenue for a chest  x-ray.  I then sat out in front of the Senior and the Arts Center.  Some news agency was making a news story.  I chatted with a friend on my cell phone.  I then returned home.  While out the building custodian fixed the bathroom toilet which was not flushing properly.  I will now drink an instant coffee inside.  Also no more chocolate milk shakes because they are too much sugar.

07/18/25 Friday 7:55 A.M.  I went by the Mobil station on West Putnam Avenue, but their front door was locked.  I went by the Exxon station on the Port Chester border, and I bought a package of Lucky Strike Menthol 100 cigarettes for $12 by mistake.  I do not smoke menthol, so I did not smoke them.  I went downtown to the www.chase.com ATM on Greenwich Avenue at Elm Street, and then I went to the Veterans bench, and I sat out for a while.  I used the bathroom at www.starbucks.com .  I bought a medium iced coffee for $4.24, and I drank it in front of the Senior and the Arts Center.  I then walked lower Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  The building on the east side of lower Greenwich Avenue seems to have sold, and they are working on it.  There is also an ice cream sundae shop on that block.  I stopped by Zen Stationary, and I bought a carton of Seneca cigar cigarettes blue for $30.  I sat out some more at the Veterans bench.  I used the bathroom at Starbucks again.  I then went to the Junior Chamber of Commerce park, and I sat out briefly, and I chatted with a friend whom told me I have to quit smoking again, which I will try as soon as possible.  I viewed www.cvs.com .  I then returned home, and I filed this report.  I have a 4 P.M. visit this afternoon from an associate.  I will now shut down the HP laptop computer.  I will eat a yogurt.  I will then go to bed.  My old routine on Greenwich Avenue was not too good for an older person particularly with smoking.

07/18/25 Friday 4:10 A.M.  I went outside.  I chatted with an Irish carpenter downtown yesterday morning.  Before my extensive computer activity over the years, it reminded me of other work I had done.  In the summer of 1966, I helped frame a house on Baldwin Farms South in Greenwich.  Up in Boston in the summer of 1970, I gutted the old Howard Johnson's chocolate factory on the harbor in Boston, and I also shoveled gravel at the tank farm of the Polaroid manufacturing plant in Waltham.  In the winter of 1977 and 1978 in Key West, I was around the Casa Marina Hotel construction project, although I did not actually do any work.  In the summer of 1978 in Nantucket on Lincoln Avenue, I worked on renovating one of the oldest houses on Nantucket.  From April 1982 to February 1983, I built the garage apartment out on Plandome Manor, Long Island.  However, from that experience where I had to take ten Tylenol a day because of my severe arthritis, I never tried construction anymore.  Living off disability all of these years, I was able to increase my personal computer skills though.  I will now go downtown early before www.starbucks.com opens at 4:30 A.M.  Quite frankly not smoking and being on the nicotine patch has me sleeping 12 to 18 hours a day, which I do not think is healthy either. 

07/18/25 Friday 3:25 A.M.  I have started smoking a small bit again.  Just to have them around, I ordered five cartons https://www.floridatobaccoshop.com/Richwood-Filtered-Cigars-GOLD_p_2987.html for $88.90 total.  I will have to quit wearing the nicotine patches until I quit smoking again.  I will now shower and clean up.

07/18/25 Friday 2:05 A.M.  I went outside.  I installed the Windows updates.  I will now go outside and drink an instant coffee.

07/18/25 Friday 1:30 A.M.  I went outside.  I picked up the mail.  I ate four White Castle cheeseburger sliders with a glass of watered down diet cranberry juice.  I have a 4 P.M. visit from an associate this afternoon.

07/18/25 Friday 12:45 A.M.  I ate seven Danish butter cookies.  I finally woke up at 6:30 P.M.  I ate my usual breakfast of pineapple chunks, fruit cocktail, Jimmy Dean sausage egg and cheese croissant, two English muffins with Smart Balance spread, diet cranberry juice and vitamins and supplements, and an instant coffee inside.  I rested until 12:30 A.M.

07/17/25 Thursday 7:00 A.M.  I went out, and I stopped by briefly at the Shell station.  I then sat out briefly at the Veterans bench.  I then drove down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road.  I then went by www.mcdonalds.com on West Putnam Avenue, and I bought two bacon, egg, and cheese biscuits and a large iced coffee for $9.22 total.  I then ate the breakfast at the Veterans bench downtown.  I then used the bathroom at www.starbucks.com .  I then stopped by Zen Stationary, and I bought a scratch card for a dollar, and I lost as usual to the Bank of Bombay.  I then sat out for a while in front of the Senior and the Arts Center.  I then returned home, and I filed this report.

07/17/25 Thursday 4:20 A.M.  I will now go downtown to see the start of the day.

07/16/25 Wednesday 4:15 A.M.  In the living room, I adjusted the LG 14000 BTU air conditioner exhaust hose, so that it is more direct.  In the northwest corner of the living room, I folded up the beach chair, and I put it in the corner, I moved one of the bent oak chairs from the bedroom into its place in front of the Dell 17 inch laptop.  It is currently 77 degree in the bedroom and 78 degrees in the living room.
