Saturday, I spent the morning and early afternoon looking into a game I ended up deciding again not to try just yet. {smile}
I have also started trying to tighten a strap on my binder/corset. Yesterday, the relief nurse taught me to tighten it gradually, as her mother does with her back brace. Yesterday, that worked pretty well. Today, I started cramping before reading to Mom. After dinner, I eased it back to untightened, and left it there. The cramp has eased since but took time even then. I think I'll try tightening it only a little, and if it's good for a few days, a little more, still easing it tighter during the day. I figure it's worth a try. {smile}I ate breakfast and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. She was fairly alert when I went in, and stayed that way through all the reading, not just the baby pictures. First, I began my reading with scripture and thoughts about it. Then I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2021. Next, I finished _The 40 Cutest Babies in the World_, showing her each picture, and saying a bit about it. After that, I read six poems and one longer story from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I finished with the 20th of July's poem, "A Holiday Week," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}
I did three of my seven leg exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. Then I did my other four leg exercises after dinner. While tapering off with City of Heroes: Homecoming, I did my head exercises. later, I did my arm resistance exercises, followed by my salsa dancing warmup, and then my arm swinging exercises. After a moderate break, I did my less structured salsa dancing set for almost 21 minutes of salsa dancing.
A while after lunch, I made myself stop looking at that game, and write my daily update. Then I cleaned myself up. I caught up on some comics I'd neglected this week and checked the chat server before hopping into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I chatted with Pierogies and teamed up with him and Kitten. We ran a few very low-level missions for Pierogies and my little characters. We went right up to time to read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner and my exercise, I read more comics, including more ones I'd neglected this week. Then I began writing this up and making notes. then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I teamed up with Pierogies, and we started to do more very low-level missions with our little characters. Dennis joined us. Then Direct X joined us. I also started chatting with Nox on the chat server. After a few more missions (they're short to very short at low enough levels), Pierogies left for bed. Next, Dennis left for bed. After another mission or two, I asked Direct X if he'd like higher level missions, since he was only moderately low-level. He said yes, so I changed to a moderately low-level character, and we did a couple more missions. (We were enough higher level that the missions were longer.) Then he left to wind down before bed, and I started my exercises, with solo hunting and catching up on comics in breaks. After the last of the salsa dancing, I worked on writing more of this and making notes. I also went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming for paperwork. {Smile}
