Daily Update, July 30, 2024

    After breakfast, I phoned surgeon's nurse and left a message for her to call me back. She hasn't, and I didn't catch her the couple of times I tried later, either. {smile}

   A while after lunch, I contacted Uber. A fellow came and took me down to my parents' lawyers' office, where I had an appointment with their notary public. I showed her the papers my aunt's estate's lawyer had sent, and she figured out which page I needed to sign then she notarized it, and I mailed it off by putting it in the envelope provided and putting that in the office's Outgoing Mail file. Then I contacted Uber, and another fellow came and took me home. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. I was a little late, and she was resting when I went in. She did wake to answer right through the session, but she wasn't much interested in looking at stuff. I started my reading with scripture and thoughts about it first. Then I read Christmas cards from a nephew and a niece of hers.  After that, I tried to show her _Picture Book: Babies_, but she was barely opening her eyes.  Next, I read a story from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. It wasn't particularly long, but the next one was, and she was tired, so I just went on, and finished with reading the 30th of July's story, "The Dragonfly," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

   I did my arm resistance exercises and ten of my twelve arm swinging exercises while waiting for Uber to Uber to come take me to the lawyers for my appointment with their notary public. Later in the afternoon, I did my head exercises. I did three of my seven leg exercises between reading to Mom and dinner, and the other four leg exercises after dinner. After playing CoH and talking with friends for much of the evening, I did my salsa dancing warmup, repeating one part to get in a set of moves I must have missed, and a little more. After a break, I did my less structured set, including the new long piece, which is fast for a piece so long. An alarm interrupted that, too, so I'm not sure how much over 21 minutes of salsa dancing I got. After another break, I did all of my walking exercises. {Smile}

   I played Cross Stitch World over breakfast and afterwards, until I made the phone call to the nurse. Then I played a bit more Cross Stitch World before I cleaned myself up. then came lunch with more Cross stitch World. Next, I read comics between lunch and my trip to lawyer's notary public. After that trip, I wrote up Monday's daily update and checked out the chat server. Then I hopped into City of heroes: Homecoming, where I found Perogies interested in finishing the new story arc, so we did so. We also had an extended talk. Kitten joined us just after the arc. We talked a little, and pierogies left slightly early for bed. Kitten and I ran one regular mission, and I also talked with Dennis, but he didn't join us. Then I left to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner and exercise, I began writing this up and making notes. Next, I hopped into City of heroes: Homecoming. I talked with Ulty and Jenny's player, then teamed up with Kitten. Kitten was so tired, they needed nudges from me to get through the mission and couldn't even start a second mission before timing out like they'd fallen fully asleep. So, I talked with Divi and Phonso next. Neither of them wanted to team up, so I did a little paperwork and most of a couple of hunts. I also talked with Nox on the chat server. Then I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming for more paperwork and most of a hunt. Next, I started my salsa dancing. Then I made more notes in this, and wrote a little of it, too. Then I played some more Cross Stitch World before doing more salsa dancing. Next, I watched a video, then wrote some more of this, also making notes in it. Then I did my walking exercises and finished the writing and notes in this for the night. {Smile}
