The secretary from the nurse's company came to talk with me briefly. This included a heads-up about a future meeting which will include her boss and talking more at length. {Smile}
I checked out a service which advertises how you can earn money through them. So far, they promise much, and give very little. I can't quite rule out beginner's bad luck, but I think there are better uses of my time. At least not on my own. I mentioned this to Nox and Radio's significant other, as well as to Paradox and Kitten. none thought it sounded great, and Radio's significant other had had similar enough experiences with similar places to ask me not to waste any more time with that site. I'll be happy to. {rueful look}
I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. Her eyes mostly stayed open, and she even looked at the pictures I showed her, but she rarely spoke. First, I read scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I read a birthday card from church, a Christmas card from a friend, a birthday card from her sister, and a Christmas card from her nephew. Then I read a few pages from _Music Stars 1940-1960 Memory Lane_. After that, I read a few poems and a story from _365 Bedtime Stories and Rhymes_. I finished with the 15th of November's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "A Winter Legend." Many years ago, a fairy wanted to make a white dress for a moonlit ball, but it was late autumn, and the earth was covered with shades of gold, russet, and brown. Then she had an idea. She took the feathers out of some eiderdown from the fairy queen's palace. Then she summoned the cold north wind with her magic whistle. It blew them onto the earth, where they became pure white snowflakes. Then she emptied a sack of diamond dust, and summoned the east wind, who came and blew it over the snow, turning it to sparkling frost. The fairy made her dress from these, and every winter the cold winds bring snow and glittering frost. {Smile}
After I finished teaming with Kitten, I did my walking exercises, my leg exercises, and three of my sitting arm weight training exercises. Then I did my salsa dancing warmup set. Then after a break, I did my less structured salsa dancing set. It wasn't quite as long, but the last piece was faster. I think it's about as many steps, just in a shorter time. Then after another break I did my arm resistance exercises, my arm swinging exercises, the last sitting arm weight training exercise, my head exercises, and the standing arm weight training exercise that didn't cause the twinge. I tried the other exercise but stopped after just a few repetitions because I didn't like the way the shoulder that twinged a couple of days ago was starting to tense up. {smile}
I read articles and comics in the morning when I wasn't trying that service. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming after lunch. There, I promptly got sidetracked by the nursing company's secretary's visit. When that was done, Pierogies had joined the early long, large-group event. I joined it, too, part way through, and we finished together. Kitten came in towards the end and found a new friend. Pierogies and I joined them on mid-level characters, and we helped the new fellow with their missions until they left for the day. Then we did a mission or two of mine, right up to time to read to Mom.
After dinner, I came online to find Pierogies still on. We talked a fair bit. Then Kitten came on, too, and the three of us teamed up, with Pierogies and I on low-level characters. We started a story arc, and Pierogies left for bed after a couple of hunts and a regular mission. Kitten and I finished that story arc and did most of the next story arc before it was time to start my exercises. I also chatted on the chat server with Nox and Radio's significant other, and separately with Paradox. Kitten and Owl Girl in two small-group channels. I also checked City of Heroes: Homecoming briefly and signed up with two web fiction hosts that Paradox recommended as inexpensive, including one they like the stories on.
