Daily Update, November 4, 2025

On Tuesday after breakfast, I called my financial adviser and touched base with her. I got instructions for how to handle things with the banks, which is great to know. {Smile}

After that, my relief nurse took me down to my dentist, where I had a thorough cleaning. My dentist also checked my teeth.  {Smile}

Next, my relief nurse took me to Kamana Senior Center, where I got to my Creative Writing class less than half an hour late. I had warned the teacher last week, which she appreciated enough to mention. Class went well. I had lunch during it, since it's right over my usual lunch time. Although I didn't have anything prepared to read for the part where we read our writing. My relief nurse took me home afterwards. {Smile}

Back at home, I got onto my computer, and straight into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game and found Kitten. We teamed up with me on the character Kitten designed. Pierogies joined us, and we did all but the last mission of the story arc we started recently. We stopped when I had to leave for my teen supergroup meeting. I roleplayed with Ulty, who is the leader, Nyxy, and two others. Ulty left, saying she had just had too long a day. The rest of us started running individual missions in the new, fairly high-level zone right through dinner, since most clocks changed, but Hawai'i's didn't, so everything starts and ends later for me now. Then we broke up. I checked on my friends who play the game, and worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting. Then I read articles and comics on the web. Next, I began writing up Monday's daily update. I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming and found that Dr. Faustus had said hello there. I got the teen supergroup member. We started a story arc. Kitten joined us after a mission. Then after a couple more missions, Phonso said hi, and invited us to a taskforce. We joined him and ran it with the group he recruited. Next, I did more in-game auction house, storage and crafting. After that, I made notes in this, with breaks to play Cross Stitch World and browse on Amazon. I ended the day by saying the Lord's Prayer and reading Forward Day by Day. {Smile}

Daily Update, November 3, 2025

On Monday, my ear was finally better, but still not well. So, after breakfast I called my doctor, and left a message telling them about my ear. {Smile}

Then my relief nurse took me down to my First Timer's Line Dance class. Our teacher was sick, so she'd asked her assistant to teach the class. He teaches several numbers most weeks anyway. He just taught all of them that day. It went well. I'm slowly memorizing the dances, I think. When we were done, my relief nurse took me over to Longs Drugs, where I picked up Acetaminophen before he took me home. {Smile}

I tried to call Doctor again after lunch. I eventually got his receptionist, who promised they'd called in another week of the antibiotic. {Smile}

At home, I had lunch. then I went onto my computer to read web articles and web comics. I tried to write up my daily update, but had so much trouble, I ended up treating my blood sugar. That helped, but not enough for much writing. So, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming, a bit later than recently, and checked on my friends who play the game. Then I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting. As I finished, I spotted someone announcing that the later short, large-group event was getting together, so I joined it and ran it. The later long, large group event usually follows shortly, so I went and had just joined it when Kitten said hi. I left the event before it began and joined Kitten. I got the character that they designed, and we did a short hunt and the mission it led to before dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back onto my computer, where I read web articles and web comics. I first struggled then succeeded in finishing writing Sunday's daily update. Only when that was done did I go back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, then got out the character Kitten designed, but to work on in-game auction house and storage on them, not really to play the game. I also began chatting with Nox on Discord. Then Dr. Faustus said hi, and I switched to the mid-level character I've been playing with him. We started a story arc I rarely play and did most of it before it got entirely too late. Next, I did a little in-game auction house and storage. Then I made notes in this. I took a break for browsing on Amazon and chatting a little with Kitten. When I finished my notes, I said the Lord's Prayer and read Forward Day by Day. {Smile}
