Daily Update, August 25, 2024

    Sunday didn't feel like Sunday this week. I didn't call Uber after breakfast, I didn't go to church, let alone have lunch there afterwards. Instead, I had a nap in the late morning, before lunch. That's what Sunday looked like when our priest cancelled services because of "an abundance of caution" concerning Storm Hune. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. I came in at a typical time again. Mom was awake, and even said a few times she liked the readings. First, I started my reading with scripture and thoughts about it. After that, I read two cards, one from each of her sisters. Next, I continued reading _Calm Babies Picture Book_. Then I read six short poems and a longer story from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I ended with reading the 25th of August's story, "Pumpkin Soup," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

   I didn't exercise again. I hope to resume at least some of my exercises after seeing the Podiatrist for a follow-up this Monday (today). {Smile}

   Over breakfast, I checked my computer, reading articles and playing Cross Stitch World Until I went to take a nap. Then I wrote up Saturday's daily update over lunch and hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming after lunch. There, I found Div. He was almost ready to leave but ran one mission with me. We made so much progress on a hunt badge we both want, that we technically didn't finish so we could run that mission again and finish the badge. After that, we said goodnight. I did some paperwork and started solo badge hunting on my 4th best badge collector. Then I cleaned myself up and checked my computer again before reading to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I began writing this up and making notes in it. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I chatted with Jenny's player, who was winding down already. I ended up solo badge hunting on my fourth best badge collector all evening. I hope she will soon be my third best badge collector. I said goodnight to Nox, but we didn't really chat. I stopped to do paperwork, then soloed some more before finishing with more paperwork. I also read one short comic and took notes in this to write from the next day. {Smile}
