Daily Update, February 20, 2026

The night before Friday, I got to bed a while after 2 am, but before 2:30 am. I slept reasonably well, I thought. I didn't seem to need a nap. {Smile}

After breakfast, my main nurse took me to my Ballroom Dance: Samba class. In class, we were mostly practicing. I found I knew the first nine steps just from their name. the teacher reminded me of the next two, and I practiced them as well as the first nine. I hope I won't forget those two. I think there are three more to learn better. I danced alone at first, then mainly with one of the gals I often dance with. I also danced with my teacher to review those two steps. My main nurse picked me up and took me home afterwards. Both on the way down and on the way back, I wrote some of Thursday's daily update. {Smile}

When I got home, I got onto my computer, and fairly quickly finished Thursday's daily update while I started lunch. When I was done, I started browsing articles, comics and videos on the web while I finished lunch, continuing for a while afterwards. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Next, I did a story arc on my own on the new version of my lower-level villain supergroup member. After that, I worked on the beginning-of-the-weekend auction house. Then I went to my villain supergroup meeting. Dr. Faustus, our leader, and the other regular were already there, but not the two or three new ones we'd hoped for. We began talking about what to do, and I mentioned that I had some story arcs. We did the next two in the series after the one I'd done on my own. While were doing them, one of the new ones contacted our leader, but was slow to join us. He joined us literally a minute after our leader left and helped us finished the second sequel. Then Dr. Faustus left, too. I did one more story arc with the other two members, running later than I think anyone meant to. I left for dinner as soon as it was done. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Then I worked on the in-game auction house and storage for the new version of my lower-level villain supergroup member. While doing this, I talked with Nox on Discord, the chat server, and got some very helpful answers about something in City of Heroes: Homecoming that I was concerned about. I also talked to Kitten on Discord, getting more advice on same subject. Next, I played by myself on the character I repurposed right after making it, hoping to get a particular mission so it could go up one more level. During this, I said hi to Ulty and Jenny's Player, and talked with Jenny's player. Then I talked some more with Noxon Discord while continuing to play by myself on that character. I finally got the character I was playing through the mission I was holding her back for. Then I played enough more to gain that level I was hoping for. After that, I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on various characters. Then I wrote a tiny bit of this and started making notes in it. I did make a few brief visits to City of Heroes: Homecoming so my second-best badge collector could work on a badge, and played a little Cross Stitch World, and read a couple of comics while I finished making notes in this. I finished my evening with reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer and Saint Francis's prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 19, 2026

The night before Thursday, I got to be closer to 2:30 am than 2 am, but I did get to bed before 2:30 am, so at least it's not worse. {Smile}

Starting during breakfast, I had my counselling by video. The session went well, I thought. She's helping me deal with feeling pushed by assorted circumstances and such. Goodness knows I need the help. I'm not finding it easy to refuse to please some people, even when I know I lack the resources to comply with their demands. I need her support to work my way through this. {smile}

At lunch time, I couldn't find a link to connect to my nutritionist for our appointment. I texted her about this, then waited. A while later, she called, asking if I was starting our video appointment soon. I checked email, and it had since arrived. I need to watch that more carefully. The appointment itself is going well. I seem to be on track with both meals and exercise. The trick is maintaining things. {Smile}

A short while later, I started a fairly long talk with the head of the nursing company. It's our first real talk about renegotiating our contract. That's not a comfortable conversation, but it's been needed long enough, it's a relief to get it started. {smile}

After my video counselling, I read articles and comics and watched videos until lunch. I read much of another comic between asking what was up and getting the phone call letting me know to go into my appointment with my nutritionist. Then I browsed the web some more before the talk with the head of the nursing company. After my talk with her, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. I missed saying hi to Dennis. I did say hi to Kitten, but they didn't respond. So, I worked on getting badges and the character kitten designed by myself until dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I checked several options for a solo version of my higher-level villain supergroup member.  Then I began writing this up. I took a break to clean up with the help of my main nurse. Next, I went back to my computer.  I checked the Discord group my Villain supergroup set up and found others discussing characters I could make that would help the group too. They really like a type that my higher-level character doesn't feel interested in, but I realized that my lower-level character was fine with that. So, I made a version of her and started the tutorial. Dr. Faustus joined me, and we finished the tutorial together.  Then we started collecting badges until Phonso invited us to a taskforce. He only found one more to do it with, so he asked if we wanted to run it with four.  We said "fine," so he put out a last call, and got one more. We ran it with five. Then the team broke up and said goodnight.  Then I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on both characters I ran after dinner. Then I did a little hunting and costume work on my newest character. Next, I finished my notes in this, with a pause to read comics. I ended my evening by reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 18, 2026

 I got to bed somewhat before 2:30. At least it wasn't after, but I know I can do better. Still, I didn't really nap or rest much the next day, so I guess it wasn't too bad. {Smile}

I did make progress with the phone calls. First, I called my financial adviser and got one of the secretaries. She sent me a text to send a picture of a letter I need help with, and promised my financial adviser would call, but quite possibly not today. However, she did call today. We discussed what we need to do, including my next step with the letter. She also gave me a message for the head of the nursing company. {Smile}

I got a call from the head of the nursing company later. We discussed what we need to do. I also passed on the message from my financial adviser. {Smile}

I also called the state retirement system and tried to ask them to check something. They didn't do quite what I asked, and what they did do wasn't helpful. I hung up in frustration, but on reflection, I need to try again and be persistent. {smile}

After dinner, my main nurse took me down to The Church of the Holy Cross for my dance classes, Ballroom Dance: Samba, and Ballroom Dance: Shuffle. Both instructors showed up this time. They each had us run through new combinations of steps, including steps we're less familiar with. I really enjoyed it. Afterwards, my main nurse took me home. Instead of playing Cross Stitch World on the rides down and back, I wrote some of Tuesday's daily update. It felt like I was being more productive, which is good. {Smile}

After breakfast, I got onto my computer, I read articles and comics and watched videos, all on the web. I called my financial adviser before lunch. I read more articles and watched more videos over lunch. Then came the other phone calls, one by one. Next, I wrote some more of Tuesday's daily update. When I got concerned that I might miss my friends, I stopped and went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game and got the new character who isn't an alternate version of my higher-level villain supergroup member, after all. I fixed up her costumes to be distinct from the villain supergroup member's. While I was finishing, Dennis said hi, and we started to talk. When I was done, I joined him for two or three missions, and gained a couple of levels, which was all I wanted right now. I switched to the actual higher-level villain supergroup member when Kitten joined us, and we did a mission or two. Then I said goodbye and left for an early dinner. {Smile}

After dinner and my classes, when I was back home, I got onto my computer. It suggested a virus scan, so I started it. I checked Discord first, responding to conversations there, since it doesn't interfere with the virus scan. Then I gave up and went on the web, which the virus scan closes down a couple of times for stuff it needs to do. I read articles and watched videos on the web. Then I wrote more of Tuesday's daily update, also on the web. I had to save and shut down the web to finish the virus scan, but then I opened it up again and finished writing Tuesday's daily update. Next, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game and said hi to Kitten. We were slow to get started but did mission together. Then I was slow to pick another mission, and Kitten was unresponsive by the time I did. So, I worked on the in-game auction house and storage, Then I wrote a little more in this before switching to making notes here to finish up more quickly. I took breaks to talk with Kitten on Discord, and check out a video they shared there, since they were doing stuff there again. I ended my evening by reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 17, 2026

The night before Tuesday, I got to be slightly earlier again. Not a lot earlier, but I hope it's slowly adding up. I think I felt less tired today and haven't needed much of a nap. {Smile}

After breakfast, my substitute relief nurse took me to Kamana Senior Center for my creative writing class. On the way, we did some errands. When it was close to time for class, she dropped me off. Class went well. the lecture was good, and then we read something to each other, with some critique after the reading. After class, my substitute relief nurse picked me up. We did one more errand. Then she took me to the ice cream parlor at Liliu'okalani Gardens. I picked out guava, plus a mango for later. we did another errand on the way home, and she gave me a strawberry popsicle she didn't want after all. After that, we went home. {Smile}

In the middle of the afternoon, I the leader of handicapped social group called. She was checking that I was okay, because I'd missed the meeting again. I didn't realize it was the third Tuesday already; it seems early this month. However, the leader offered to try to call to remind me. she asked about a week before, but I suggested the day before, which she agreed to. I think a week before gives me too much time to forget again. {Smile}

When I got back home from my class, I got onto my computer. I read articles and comics, and watched videos, all on the web. Then I finished writing Monday's daily update. Next came the call from the handicapped social group's leader. After the phone call, I settled into City of Heroes: Homecoming and checked on my friends who play the game.  I worked on the in-game auction house, storage, crafting. Then I went to my teen supergroup meeting.  I was the first one there. The same fellow as last week came soon.  We role-played until he wondered if anyone else was coming. I checked with Ulty first, since she is our leader. She really didn't feel up to it but gave us the go-ahead to do what we wanted to. Next, I talked to Jenny's player, who wasn't feeling up to role-playing, either. After that, I talked to Nyxy, who switched to her member character, and joined us. We role-played a little, then did a story arc of mine that ran well into dinner, so I began eating while we finished. Then they left. I talked briefly with Dennis, then went to finish dinner with my nurse. {Smile}

After dinner, I got back onto my computer, and back into City of Heroes: Homecoming.  I checked on my friends who play the game, then broke to read a comic on the web. Then I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming and checked on my friends who play the game again. I talked with Dr. Faustus while collecting badges on the new version of my higher-level villain supergroup member, or rather what I thought was the new version, because our conversation made me tray again. I made a new character and talked to Dr. Faustus again. They joined me in the tutorial, after making a character to leave in there for this sort of thing. We started collecting badges, then started a story arc. The new member of our villain supergroup soon joined us. We finished the arc and started a sequel. Phonso joined us partway through. We finished the arc, and I said goodnight. I worked on the in-game auction house and storage, then made notes in this. I took two breaks t change the character who won't be my villain supergroup member enough that I would know who she was meant to become. Next, I finished making notes in this. I ended my evening with reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 16, 2026

The night before Monday, I got to bed a little after 2:30 am. That's late for me, but not nearly as bad as the night before. I got a short nap in before dinner, which helped. {Smile}

My First Timers' Line Dance Class didn't meet because it was Presidents' Day, which is a state holiday. It seemed a bad day for all the phone calls I wanted to make, too, for the same reason. {smile}

My substitute relief nurse spent the day cooking. I think I'm glad the donuts were distinctly less sweet than most. They were sweet enough to be tasty, which is all you need. {Smile}

The part of Homecoming (the game server I play on so much) that I use went offline a while before dinner. I was with Pierogies when an announcement said it was minutes away. We were just expressing our surprise when it started to disconnect. I tried to check on it through Homecoming's place in Discord, but got confused, and thought it was back very quickly, but it wasn't. It was off for a couple of hours, maybe a little more. At that, it's quicker than the three hours they warned of. {smile}

After breakfast I went onto my computer. I read articles and watched videos, all on the net. This pretty much continued through lunch. A while after lunch, I wrote up my daily update, with breaks to check comics on the web. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and was happy to find Div. I said hi, and we talked until he was free to team up. Then we got together, and did a mini story arc that gave us both badges, followed by a mini story arc that I needed for a badge that Div had gotten already. I said hi to Bey during the first arc, but forgot to invite him between the arcs, and noticed he was with someone else by then. Next, Div and I said goodnight, because the second mini story arc left Div pretty tired. It was late for him anyway. I also talked with Pierogies, starting during the second arc. He was busy in a costume contest, so I updated my second-best badge collector's badge record after Div left When that contest was done, we teamed up and were talking about what to do together when the announcement that the servers were going down happened. When I was sure they weren't coming back soon, I took a short nap until dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back onto my computer. The part of homecoming I use was down, so I began writing this up. I took a break to read some comics, and another to check Discord, the chat server. I was back to writing this when Homecoming announced on Discord that the servers were up. I made myself finish the part I was writing, then went onto City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked some of my characters and updated my second-best badge collector's badge record. I did a mission that got me a couple of badges. Then I started looking at badges to work on. I set her to work on a badge I can just peek in on so I could write more of this. I wrote some more of this, then noticed that Pierogies said hi in one of my peeks. We talked and teamed up. He wanted to do a mission only available this month, so I got a character who can benefit from it. While we were getting ready, Doc said hi, and joined us. The three of us ran the mission. Pierogies got badges, and I made progress. Then Pierogies left for bed. Doc and I started a mini-story-arc that got me two badges. We paused for a zombie apocalypse until we got bored before we went into the main mission. After we finished, we talked about what to do next. Doc stopped responding after a bit, so I updated my character's badge record. Then I switched to a new version of my higher-level villain supergroup member. I ran her through the tutorial I'd left her in. Doc said hi while I was in the tutorial. When I got out, it was really too late to do much, so Doc said we'd do something another day. I set up this new character for regular play with auction house and training. Next, I did some in-game auction house, storage and crafting on a few other characters. After that, I wrote more in this, switching to notes when I realized how late it was. When I finished, I read Forward Day by Day and read the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 15, 2026

The night before Sunday, I accidentally misread the clock and got to bed an hour later than I thought. I slept well but got up slightly early because I do on Sundays and had trouble moving fast. I got to church just as it was ending, since it was a nine am service, which they're trying once a month to socialize between the early service, and the late one. I sat with Auntie Barbara for the last couple of hymns. {Smile}

We sat together for lunch, during which the congregation rededicated our labyrinth after a new paint job, which it needs every few years. After that, my main nurse took me home. {Smile}

At home, I took a longer than usual nap and felt much better. I woke to find my housekeeper working. She kept working most of the afternoon and the house is much better for her attentions. After I got up, I went onto my computer. I started with reading articles and watching videos, both on the web. Then I let friends on Discord know I was going into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Next, I went into that game and checked for friends who play there. After that, I got a few badges on my second-best badge collector. Then I found Kitten, and we teamed up, but they went quiet before we could start a mission together. I found a couple of badges I could get by myself on that character. Next, I went to dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I cleaned myself up with the help of my main nurse. Then I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I found my character was still teamed with Kitten, though they were now team lead. I got kitten's attention. They were feeling better after sleeping. We did the mission together. Next, Doc said hi, and joined us. They started going through missions they had that get badges. I found a character who didn't have the badge yet for each, and they got the badges. All but the last were ranked badgers. The last was a hero mission that my higher-level villain supergroup member hadn't done, so I did it on her. After that, Doc showed me a few tricks to play that character better, and we talked about making a new version of my character while Cat went off to help someone else. Then I made notes in this. I took a few breaks, including one to set up that alternate version of my higher-level villain supergroup member that I've been thinking about, and one to pick up a couple of things I need on Amazon now that my checking account is in condition to handle that for a while. I finished my evening by reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 14, 2025

Saturday was Valentine's Day, so, if you celebrate it, Happy Valentine's Day! If you don't, I hope you celebrated it, and maybe took advantage of the candy sales afterwards, as they're available. {Smile}

The night before Saturday, I got to bed a while after two am, but not as bad as sometimes. I still drowsed in the afternoon, while visiting with my cousin, her husband, and the couple who bought her father's house. I was more awake after that, though. {Smile}

Yes, I visited with my cousin on Saturday. She's on a short trip back home. She and her husband came over to pick me up right before lunch. We tried a restaurant that was new to all of us. The food seemed healthy, though my portion was a little small, though not too bad when supplemented with some of my cousin's husband's chips. My cousin and her husband had larger portions, so if I go back, I'll try the kalua pork wraps instead of the salmon open-faced sandwich. Then we went to Keaukaha, where my cousin grew up. We were early, so we drove around until we found two cars in the garage of her parent's former home. We stopped there and visited with the folks who bought the house. It was a nice visit. They were a congenial older couple, I think from Texas. On the way home, we stopped by ACE to pick up plumbing supplies. Then they took me home. My cousin got a picture of us together before she and her husband left. {Smile}

Before they came, I realized I had a puffy eye. We've been trying to treat it with hot compresses. It might be a little better. My nurse checked for medicine, but Safeway didn't have any. We'll see later, if doesn't clear up on its {smile}

Also, I realized that one sink was draining very slowly. I tried our plungers, which made it a little better. Next, I told my main nurse, and asked him to try the drain cleaner, since I didn't trust myself with it when I couldn't find the instructions. It got much worse, I'm sure through no fault of my nurses. It's just one of THOSE clogs. My nurse got supplies while I visited with my cousin. My nurse got the sink draining slowly again. I suggested leaving it alone until I can get a plumber. I don't want to risk making it worse again. Unless it really improves, I'll call the plumber on Tuesday, since I think Monday is a holiday. {smile}

Before my cousin came, I was mainly fussing with the drain, though I read an article or two and watched a couple of videos on the net. I also shared the daily update I pretty much finished the night before, just too late to share right then. After the visit, I went back onto my computer. I watched videos and read articles. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and said hi to Kitten, Dennis, and Pierogies. I joined them for a hunt, but got called to dinner very quickly, so I didn't do much with them. {smile}

After dinner, I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and talked with Dennis while He, Kitten, and Pierogies finished something I couldn't join in the middle of. When they were done, I joined them just in time to say goodnight to Pierogies and Dennis. Then I teamed up with Kitten, who helped me finish the story arc we'd started in the post-apocalyptic setting. We did its sequel, too. Then we did an almost villainous story arc involving stealing a diamond, but nothing worse. Dr. Faustus joined us part way through. We finished, and I said goodnight. I did some in-game auction house, crafting, and storage. Next, I made notes in this, a break to watch some videos because I thought it was earlier than it was. I hate mis-reading clocks. I read Forward Day by Day and said the Lord's Prayer. I got to bed shortly after three, discovering it right when I was getting to bed, so I had no way to speed up. {small smile}

Daily Update, February 13, 2026

The night before Friday, I got to bed a little closer to 2:30 am than 2:00 am, though in between. I tried to rest on the way down to my dance class, but at the beginning, I was mostly answering questions from my main nurse with my eyes closed. I did get some rest later in the ride. I rested after class much more successfully. My nurse had one more errand, and it was a long one. I woke up on my own about the time he got back to the car and really didn't need more rest later. {Smile}

After breakfast, my main nurse took me down to Kamana Senior Center for my Ballroom Dance Samba class. I got there just about on time and had a great session. Our teacher covered the last few beginner's steps. I learned the ones he introduced last time, and one of the new ones. the other new ones I can do with a strong enough lead who knows the steps, but I need to work on getting them down for myself. {Smile}

My main nurse picked me up and explained that the line for my medicine had been too long, so he still needed to get it. I said might as well get it now. I rested on the way over. Then he said I could sit in the car, so I rested there, too. I was actually finishing resting when he got up, and was reasonably awake on the way home. {Smile}

Near the end of my class, I got a call. It was Katie, from Daughters of the King. She had stuff for me from the chapter. When she learned I was at class, she said to call her when I got home. I'm glad she did, because I had no idea that errand would take that long. I did text her when I was home, and she soon came over to give me my membership pin and the introductory reading material. She helped me put the pin on. {Smile}

When I got home after my dance class and the errand, I got onto my computer. I started to read articles and comics and watch videos over lunch. This paused for Katie's visit. I continued reading and such through the rest of lunch and afterwards, then wrote up the rest of Thursday's daily update. Next, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming just in time for Div to say hi. We talked a bit, but he was just getting ready to head out, so we didn't team up. Instead, I did the beginning of the weekend work on the in-game auction house, then went to my villain supergroup meeting. They were already role-playing, so I joined in, but I'm pretty quiet. I did mention that I'd run into a fellow with the group we recently allied with who mentioned a character who might want to join. We went to their base, then talked to that group, and they came. They introduced a character who wanted to join, though not by the name I had originally been told. Some of our members were suspicious, but we have been trying to get new members, so I tried to encourage them to give him a chance. I think that's what we're doing. This carried me right into dinner, to the point I began eating by the computer. When the meeting was done, I carried my food into the next room, to finish eating with my main nurse. {Smile}

After supper, I read a comic and started writing this. Then I moved towards City of Heroes: Homecoming, but I kept getting distracted until I noticed Kitten complaining on Discord, the chat server. I settled down, checking on my friends who play the game, and teaming up with Kitten. they helped my best badge collector get a new badge - honestly, doing more of the work for it than I did. Then I switched to the character they designed. They helped me do the next story arc in that post-apocalyptic setting. Then we started the next story arc, but the first mission failed to complete. I tried to auto complete it, but that just messed up more stuff. Dragons joined us, and we ended up doing it again. This time it completed. We did one more, then I realized it was a good time to start getting ready for bed. I did some auction house, storage and crafting, then finished writing up this. It was too late to share, so I'll have to do that the next day. I just read Forward Day by Day and said the Lord's Prayer to finish my evening. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 12, 2026

 The night before Thursday, I struggled a bit to get to sleep, being more than a little stressed over meetings expected the next day. However, the day didn't go how I expected it to. 

At breakfast, I checked my email and didn't find the link to my counselling appointment. So, I checked my phone and found a text. My counsellor had to cancel the appointment because she needed to be away from her computer at the appointed time. She confirmed the appointment we'd made for next week, though, so there's still that. {Smile}

At lunch time, waited for a call that was to involve my financial adviser, the head of the nursing company that takes care of me. No call came, so a little after the time, I called my financial adviser, and got the answering machine, so I left a message. Then I called the head of the nursing company. I did get her, and learned she was busy helping her brother. We agreed to talk later. Then my financial adviser's secretary called. My financial adviser will talk with me next week. I guess I was supposed to confirm the appointment time mentioned, not just note it in my schedule. Well, now I know. {Smile}

During breakfast, I got onto my computer and discovered my counselling was cancelled. So, I watched videos, and read articles, all on the web. Then I wrote up Wednesday's daily update, finishing right before the call. Then I found out the call wasn't happening. I read comics over lunch. After lunch, I tweaked my story briefly, then went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game and said hi to Div and Pierogies. Div responded, so we talked and teamed up with me on the higher-level teen supergroup member. We started with more missions in the story arc we started the day before. Pierogies joined us after a while. A few missions later, Div said goodnight. I discovered shortly after they left that the last mission with all three of us was the end of the story arc. Pierogies and I did a mini-story-arc of mine and one mission of theirs. Then he left too. I started collecting badges. Next, Dennis said hi, and we teamed up. We started a mission of his that I might benefit from. His friend joined us during it. The three of us did two or three more missions. Then Dennis's friend left. I had time for one more mission before dinner. After that mission, Dennis and I said goodnight. {Smile}

After dinner, I cleaned myself up with the help of my main nurse. Then I read comics and articles, and watched videos, all on the web. Next, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. I also answered Nox on Discord, the chat server. After that, I began to hunt on a mid-level character I haven't played recently. Then I began collecting badges on the same character. Next, Pierogies said hi, but was collecting badges himself. So, I started doing some talk missions. Eventually, I joined him to check something and switched characters a couple of times. After that, I got a few more badges on the mid-level character from earlier while making notes in this. Then I tweaked my story briefly before I read Forward Day by Day and said the Lord's Prayer to finish my evening. {Smile}

Daily Update, February 11, 2026

 The night before Wednesday, I got to bed at the usual time, despite getting started a little late. I got to sleep not a slowly as sometimes recently, but nowhere close to fast. The next day, I wasn't tired enough for a nap. {Smile}

After dinner, my main nurse took me down to the Church of the Holy Cross for my ballroom dancing classes. We were only the second car in the parking lot near the class, but soon others came. Eventually, someone came and opened up the building. My Ballroom Dance: Rhumba class went normally, with the instructor and his assistant teaching us some new moves with variations in some cases. But when it came to Ballroom Dance: Shuffle class, the teacher wasn't there. His assistant was, but as she explained - and I confirmed from personal experience - as a follower you don't have to know the steps all that well to do your job. Follow a good lead, and keep stepping in rhythm, and it will work out reasonably well, even if you're still learning, yourself. So, she picked one of the better students, who led us through practicing the moves we've already done. He was not ready to try to teach anything new, but he was very good at reviewing what we'd been taught. After the second class, my main nurse took me home again. {Smile}

After breakfast, I got onto my computer, and started reading articles and comics, and watching videos, all on the web. I continued into the afternoon, I found Chrome, Pierogies, and Div, and started talking with all three. I teamed up with Chrome on my higher-level teen supergroup member, and Pierogies soon joined us. We did a mission or two together about his disappointment with the new public base system. I got them to invite Div after a while, but they both left shortly after talking with him for a bit. Then Div and I did a badge mission, and the first few missions of a story arc. Next Div said goodnight, and I collected quite a few badges on my higher-level teen supergroup member. I also wrote up and shared Tuesday's daily update before dinner. {Smile}

After we got back from my class, I got onto my computer and started watching videos and reading articles and comics. Then I tried to go into City of Heroes: Homecoming, but found myself answering Nox on Discord, the chat server, and reading another comic or two. Next, I actually did go into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. After that, I pursued some badges on a few characters I've enjoyed playing recently. Then I began writing this while continuing to hunt for badges. Next, I read comics on the web. After that I made some more notes in this. I ended by evening by reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer. {Smile}
