Daily Update, November 1. 2024

On Friday, I contacted Uber, and a nice, chatty fellow took me to physical therapy. The day after Halloween he was already full of plans for Thanksgiving. Physical therapy went well. they got the order from my doctor this time, so we started the new kinds of physical therapy this week. A lot of it is different postures and such that I need to maintain more. Afterwards, I contacted Uber and a different driver took me home. {Smile}

I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. Mom was awake when I went in again, even though I was late again. Mom kept her eyes open and looked at all the pictures again, especially the ones of kids. I started with scripture and thoughts about it first. Then I read a Christmas cards from her cousin and niece. Next, I started showing her pictures in _the Picture book of Babies_. After that, I read a story from _Richard Scarry's 5-Minute Stories_. I ended with November 1st's story, "The Pancakes," in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

Physical therapy was my exercise on Friday, though I started doing the new, everyday stuff. {Smile}

Between breakfast and physical therapy, I played Vindictus. Then after lunch, I played more Vindictus. After that, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Ulty and Jenny's player invited me to a trial just before Pierogies said hi. I tried to get Pierogies invited. Ulty meant to invite them, but filled the team thinking somebody else was him. Pierogies and I promised to get together afterwards, so I ran the trial. But when it was over, Pierogies was gone. I found out later that he was tired and left early. I ended up joining the late long, large-group event. Then I got together with Dennis. We did a mission or two before I left to read to Mom. {Smile}

After dinner, I wrote up Thursday's update, with breaks for comics reading and CSW. Then I hopped into City of heroes: Homecoming. I didn't see anyone I particularly like to get together with, so I started on paperwork. Next, Dennis came in asking where everyone was. I told him I didn't know. We teamed up and did some of Dennis's missions. After a few missions Phonso joined us. We did more missions; Phonso felt it was too late for the trial he'd wondered about earlier. I said goodnight to Nox on the chat server, having missed talking with them. Then Dennis and Phonso left, and I did some paperwork. Then I played Vindictus before writing a little in this and making a lot of notes before bed. {Smile}
