Daily Update, May 1, 2025

I hope everyone had a happy May Day, that is if you celebrate it. If not, I hope you had a nice day. {Smile}

On Thursday, after dinner, we had a power failure. While waiting for the power to come back, I finished a manga I've been reading, talked with my relief nurse, and chatted with Nox on the chat server courtesy of my phone. Then I got a phone call from Auntie Barbara, and we chatted with fewer distractions than usual. The power came back during the phone call, but it went out again not long after that. I was just settling in on my computer when it went out the second time. I talked with my relief nurse some more and went back to chatting with Nox on the chat server before it came back a second time and stayed on this time. {Smile}

Earlier in the day wasn't uneventful, either. After breakfast, I had online counselling, which went well. Talk about Dungeons & Dragons tried to take over, but that showed me I really need to look into that locally. It should help my social life, and maybe more. {Smile}

Next, I ran errands with my relief nurse, including a long one that pushed lunch late. We managed to pick up some fast food that let me start eating before I got sick from hunger, though, so it all worked out. {Smile}

Then, in the middle of the afternoon, I had an appointment with my cardiologist. It was nice to finally see my own cardiologist again, instead of a different cardiologist or a nurse practitioner. They didn't to the standard EKG, because they didn't want to make me get pretty much undressed for it, and with the corset for the diastasis recti, I would have had to. They would have done it if I'd reported concerning symptoms like heart palpitations or unusual shortness of breath, but those were lacking, so it didn't seem worth the bother to them. {Smile}

My main exercise was a fairly long walk in and out of the hospital for my cardiology appointment. I walked right past new construction and around half the building to a back entrance I never noticed before. Well, it's what passes for a front entrance right now, but it's usually a back entrance. {Smile}

On the errands, I played Cross Stitch World. Then, at the end of the errands and after that, I had lunch. Next, I wrote up Wednesday's daily update before my trip to my cardiologist. I played more Cross Stitch World while waiting. After we got back home, I started notes in this. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I found Kitten. Pierogies, and Dennis in a mission, and joined them. We ran that mission right up to my dinnertime, so I went straight to dinner after we finished. {Smile}

After dinner came the power failure. After the power failure, I made notes in this before I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I did some paperwork, then went back out to read web comics. After that, I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I said hi to Kitten, Divi, and Ulty, and talked with Divi and Ulty while playing by myself. I eventually got lonely, so I looked for someone to team with. I checked with Kitten again, but they still didn't respond. So, I checked with Divi. He was winding down, and busy with someone else. So, I checked with an acquaintance and joined them for a couple of missions. Another acquaintance joined us in the second mission. Then I said goodnight and did some paperwork. After that, I made notes in this, with a break to play Cross Stitch World before I finished the notes. {Smile}
