Daily Update, July 13, 2024

   On Saturday, I texted our former nurse. He was busy but had a short chat. We also arranged to have a longer talk soon. {Smile}

   I also texted Auntie Barbara, and she called me back. We had a nice talk. {smile}

   I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. She was sitting up when I went in, and enjoyed looking at the pictures, especially the pictures of children. I began my reading with scripture and thoughts about it first. Next, I read a long Christmas card from a friend. Then I finished _The Picture Book of Kids and Animals_. After that, I read Red Riding Hood and another story from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I ended with the 13th of July's story, "the Sea Urchin," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

   I did my head exercises while waiting for Pierogies to finish the later long, large-group event. Then I did my arm resistance exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. I did my leg exercises after dinner. then I did my salsa dancing warmup set. After a break, I did a less structured salsa dancing piece, and after another break, I did another less structured salsa dancing piece, though when I started, I realized I was tired enough, I was glad I'd picked the slightly shorter, still slow piece. I got around 19 minutes and 50 seconds of salsa dancing, not quite 20 minutes... but I think I was tired enough, it was still a good showing. 

   I had breakfast with Mom. Then I read articles and played Cross Stitch World until I had lunch with Mom. Next, I played Cross Stitch World, read articles, and chatted with friends on chat server until I wrote up Friday's daily update. After that, I cleaned myself up. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I said hi to Pierogies, who was finishing up the later long, large-group event. I talked with Jenny's player, too, and did paperwork and a little exercise while I waited. Pierogies and I did get together and do a mission when he was done, taking us right up to time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I exercised, and began writing this up and making notes. Then I read some web fiction before hopping into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I did some paperwork and had my phone call with Auntie Barbara. Then back to City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I talked with Jenny's player and Direct X. I also did a little more paperwork before I joined a pair of high-level taskforces. After that, I did more paperwork, and read comics, articles, and web fiction before salsa dancing. Next, I wrote more of this, and watched videos before more salsa dancing. Next, I read more comics, and played some Cross Stitch World before the last of my salsa dancing for the evening. I made notes in this and hopped back into City of Heroes: Homecoming to do some paperwork. Before I finished making notes in this. {Smile}
