According to my Fitbit, I got in 588 steps yesterday and last night I slept for 8 hours and 57 minutes for a sleep score of 80.
Colombia
played Portugal to a 0-0 tie. I’m sure both teams already qualified to
advance. In the next stage, games like this will go to penalty kicks to break the
tie.
I spent the day in and out of bed.
I’m now in the emptying the nose stage of my cold.

Last night I went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, got up at 5:30 to pee, couldn’t fall back asleep so I got up at 6:30.
According to my Fitbit, I got in 5,883 steps yesterday and
last night I slept for 5 hours and 58 minutes for a sleep score of 71. ☹
I met Marcos at Tostao at 9:30 and we discussed Glenn’s
health situation. His son and grandsons are coming for a visit in the next few
weeks.
I stopped at a nearby pharmacy and purchased a box of
Hidroxicina Chlorhidrato tablets for my cold before returning to the apt. I’m
in the runny nose phase of my cold.
Teresa sent me next door to Ara to purchase a few
items she needed to make lunch.
At 2:43 I received this message from Glenn’s cellphone, “Hola
terry ya murio clen (sic) lo siento mucho”. I’m sure that was from Daniela.
At 2:45 I received this message from Juan, “Glenn die”.
Later I found this obituary on Facebook:
I spent most of the rest of the day in and out of bed.
I’m sure I’m not going to gym tomorrow so I stayed up to
watch the US play Turkey. The US won their first two games so they already
qualified to advance to the next round so they played mainly their second
stringers. Turkey won 3-2.
(I found out later that Annie’s dad, Jacob, was at that
match.)
I got to bed about 11:15.

After breakfast I set my timer to 45 minutes and returned to
bed for a nap, mainly resting my tired eyes.
I left the apt at 8:45 and found Smartfit as busy as
usual but 4 chicas were hogging the Leg Extension machine. I finally completed
my workout including 18 minutes on the treadmill with a final heartrate of 123
bpm. (I had some discomfort in my right hip joint but not so bad I had to
stop.)
I had a latte in Ganso y Castor for about an hour
before returning to the apt. I did stop on the way and bought a bag of milk in Ara.
I left the apt at 12:30 and took a Didi to Santafe mall.
First, I printed yesterday’s chess games then went down the hall to Olivia.
I didn’t see Teresa so I texted her asking where she was. She said she decided
to have lunch in Parmessano and she was waiting for me in front of the
large screen in the food court.
I walked through the food court which was huge with lots of
tables and chairs. I told her I didn’t see her and to meet me at Olivia. She
said she already has taken a table in Parmessano and to meet me there.
After walking around the food court I finally asked a security guard the
location of the restaurant. She said its on the 3rd floor, I wasn’t
even on the right floor. I went down to the 3rd floor, found the
restaurant, walked through it but didn’t see her. I told her I didn’t see her
and to come out and get me. This continued back and forth for about an hour,
when I finally realized she was in Mayorca. This isn’t the first time she has
gotten the name of malls wrong but this morning I didn’t question it when she
said Santafe mall. I told her I would have lunch here and meet her at the apt
later.
I went to McDonald’s where now you have to order using one
of their screens. I got through that but couldn’t figure out where to put the
cash. I asked a cashier and apparently, I hadn’t finished the order and it
gives you a receipt which you take to the cashier to pay. I had a Big Mac with
fries and a Coke.
I stopped in Medipiel 120,500 pesos and bought Cetiphel Urea
20% which now comes in a tube instead of a pump ($35.50).
I won a game vs Troyclough increasing my rating to 1503.
I went across Ave Poblado and soon was on a bus back to
Envigado. I got off at Gardenia where I took a table in front of the screen to
watch some World Cup while having a latte.
Juan texted me that they are going to euthanize Glenn
tomorrow instead of Friday.
I left at 5pm and returned to the apt.
I have some nose dripping so obviously I’ve caught a cold.
Daniela called and asked me if I want to come to the clinic
when they euthanize Glenn but I took a pass. She talked to Teresa separately
and got the same answer.
I finished reading James Patterson’s Four Blind Mice
(Alex Cross #8).

According to my Fitbit, I got in 6,051 steps yesterday and
last night I slept for 4 hours and 55 minutes for a sleep score of 65. ☹
I arrived 10 minutes early to Unicentro mall, enough time
for one trip around the outside perimeter. When I completed it I was the guy
with the fruit cart and bought a banana.
I met Jose in Parmessano where we had our usual egg
breakfasts.
We adjourned to the food court where I had the Black pieces
in the first game. My 17th move was a bad and I resigned on the 28th
move.
I had the White pieces in the second game and got some good
pressure against his king. On the 40th move, early in the endgame,
he allowed me to fork his king and bishop, not gaining a piece but getting his
bishop out of the game. At that point I was more confident of a win but he kept
on playing eventually resigning on the 62nd move.
It was 2:15 when I ordered a Didi to take me to Viva
Envigado. As usual the driver took backroads for the first half of the trip
then switched to the expressway to finish it.
I had teriyaki chicken in Sarku’s, made an ATM
withdrawal (all 100s at Davivienda), then a trip to the restroom. I was about
to exit the mall proper when I realized I didn’t have my chess bag with me. ☹ I retraced my steps to the restroom then Sarku’s
where they were saving it for me. Whew! 😊
I stopped in Exito and bought 3 oranges, 2 were normal sized
but the last I suspect was really a mandarin, they just filled the wrong bin. I
also bought a large cartain of eggs and returned to the apt by taxi.
Netflix is still asking me to pay my bill but still allowing
me to watch movies. I watched another episode of The Handmaid’s Tale.
I did my pre-sleep reading from 8 to 9pm then watched Colombia
beat the DR of Congo 1-0. On Medellin TV I found channels on a World Cup 2026 folder
but too much buffering. I switched to the Telemundo folder and still had some
buffering but it was acceptable.
I went to bed at 11pm, wondering how I would sleep tonight.

Last night I went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, got up at 3am to pee, couldn’t fall back asleep, got up at 3:30 and read until 4am, went back to bed, seemed to take quite a while to fall back asleep, finally waking/getting up at 6:45.
According to my Fitbit, I got in 2,217 steps yesterday and
last night I slept for 7 hours and 2 minutes for a sleep score of 79.
I took a nap for about 20 minutes after breakfast.
I left the apt at 9am and found Smartfit not very
busy. I completed my workout, adding 5# to the Abdominal Crunch and Chest Press
machines and completing the treadmill with a heartrate of 122bpm.
I had a latte in Ganso y Castor for about an hour.
I stopped at the Bancolombia kiosk and deposited 50mil in
Teresa’s Bancolombia account. Hopefully, that will be enough to cover June’s
Netflix payment and it won’t take too long to register.
Colombians celebrating the election of the new president:
We left the apt at 1:15 and took a Didi to Santafe mall. We
had lunch in Olivia’s, where Teresa had salmon and pasta and I had the fettuccini
with meatballs and a mango juice for 153,509 ($44.50).
We went down to Valentina’s where I had a latte,
Teresa had her cold coffee with ice cream and we shared a
slice of yogurt cake.
We left at 3:30 and took a taxi to Clinca la Vida Ave
Ochenta, a hospital specializing in cancer. Teresa forgot her cedula so she was
expecting not to be allowed to enter.
Glenn was in a private room with a bathroom and a closet. He
is in a hospital bed with one of those things in his nose to help him breathe.
Daniela was with him and told me the rabbi was just there. I sent her down to
the entrance so Teresa could come up. (Daniela doesn’t speak English.) Glenn
had a laptop in front of him turned to a news channel but all I saw while I was
there was buffering. I took off my facemask and was holding it in my hand when
he took it and used it as a Kleenex to wipe his mouth and nose. He mumbled a
few things but was near impossible to hear. When Daniela returned, she told me
they are going to bring Bianca for a visit on Thursday. When we left Teresa
told me they are going to euthanize him on Friday. ☹
This is all so sad, hard to believe he appeared so normal when I had breakfast
with him last May 3rd. I assume his brother Peter and niece Carrie
made arrangements with the rabbi to take care of his body.
We left and returned to the apt by taxi.
On another health front: Teresa’s sister Vicky has been in
an ICU for pneumonia for the past week and soon will be having a heart bypass
operation.
The US dollar has weakened considerably the past year plus,
thanks tRump.
Teresa’s tanning spray arrived in Florida today.
I tried to update my payment method for my Netflix account
with my debit card but every time got the same response, “There appears to be a
problem with the payment method you are trying to use.” No indication what the
problem might be. I noticed an option that said, “Not now” so I clicked that
and was able to watch another episode of The Handmaid’s Tale.
