Daily Update, February 23, 2024

    Friday, I stayed home and thought a lot about hosts for my web fiction. I tried to look into some sites, too. I'm having a lot of trouble deciding what to do next. {small smile} 

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before thatShe woke up when I got there and stayed awake to look at all the pictures and listen to the stories today. I began with scripture and thoughts about it first. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2020. Then I continued _Mele Kalikimaka: Christmas in Hawai'i_. Next, I read the next story in _Five-Minute Stories: Over 50 Tales and Fables_, "Beauty and the Beast." I ended with the 23rd of February's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "A Riddle."  It gave an awful lot of clues describing a snow man, I guess so little children have a good chance at guessing right. {Smile}

   I did my head exercises and one of my sitting arm exercises while I was talking to Dark. Then I did my salsa dancing warmup set after a break. Next, I did my arm swinging exercises after another break. Then I could have gone on, except for how late it was. I'll have to work on getting stuff done earlier. {Smile}

   I researched web fiction hosts in the morning, then finished writing Thursday's daily update. After lunch I played Cross Stitch World and did more research into web fiction sites. Eventually I got around to cleaning myself up. Then I hopped straight into City of Heroes: homecoming because it was pretty late. I did get together with Pierogies, and we did 3 or 4 individual missions before it was time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I hopped back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I got together with Pierogies, and we got ready to continue the movie we started yesterday with Kitten, since Kitten insisted that we shouldn't wait for them. Then Dark came in and was more interested in missions than the movie. When I told Pierogies, he shooed me off to play with Dark, saying we'd watch the movie some other time. I teamed up with Dark, and we played two story arcs together over the evening, the first and second in a four-part series. I talked to Rivka, too, but they were too close to bedtime to play together. I talked to Nox on the chat server, too. I talked to Dark as well as teaming, especially about web fiction. He reads it, so i asked about suggestions to start publishing. We talked about other things after teaming, until I had to start exercising.  Then we said goodnight, and I did my exercises, with more looking into web fiction hosts and writing up this, well, mostly making note to write from the next day. {Smile}
