Daily Update, July 2, 2025

 On Wednesday, before supper, my main nurse took me down to Hilo High School. They had a Jazz Band that was having a little concert about an hour long, more-or-less. My nurse's daughter had a trumpet solo in one of the later pieces. I thought she did very well all of the kids did, really. I enjoyed it. It's been too long since I've gone to a concert. Mom, Dad, and I used to go often, until Dad couldn't keep his legs down that long, and Mom couldn't wait that long to use the bathroom. We tried to figure out a way for me to go, but it was easier to just stay home than to figure out a place to wait safely. {smile}

Exercise included mini-Kegels, and walking around Hilo High School. It wasn't as much as some days, but the stairs at Hilo High School were more difficult than any stairs I encounter often, partly because they lacked regular railings. I got some pretty good practice with them. I think I need more stair practice. {Smile}

After breakfast, I played cross Stitch World, browsed on the web, and read web comics right through the morning and lunch. After lunch, I wrote up Tuesday's daily update and cleaned myself up with the help of my main nurse. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming and started with paperwork. Then Pierogies said hi. We teamed up quickly and did a mission to make sure it fit before the concert. I think we did a second mission. Dennis said hi right at the end and joined us. He wanted to play more, but I was tight on time. Still, we finished a hunt and started a second hunt before I had to leave for the concert. After the concert, I had dinner when i got home. {Smile}

After dinner, I chatted on the chat server and played Cross Stitch World. Then I went back into City of Heroes: Homecoming and started with paperwork. I said hi and talked a bit with Ulty, Jenny's Player, and Nyxy. Then I did a high-level individual mission by myself on a high-level character. As I was finishing, Dennis said hi. He joined me right after that mission, and we did two more missions of the same type together. It was a bit hard, but we managed and actually got better. Then we discussed switching to moderately low-level characters, but Dennis spotted Phonso advertising a pair of high-level taskforces. We joined him and ran them with the team Phonso recruited. After that, we said goodnight. I did paperwork, the started making notes in this. I paused for a fair bit of Cross Stitch World before I finished notes in this. {Smile}
