Today was a quiet day at home. That was nice, and about what I'm up to with the tooth... but I'll be up to church tomorrow, in part because I had a quiet day at home today. {Smile}
I ate breakfast and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. She was awake and looking at pictures today, but only responded once or twice. First, I started with scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I read two cards: one from her cousin, and one from her sister, followed by a story about how spiders wanted to see the Christ child when he visited on Christmas Eve, and covered the Christmas tree in webs. The Christ child, loving the spiders, but knowing the mother of the family wouldn't like the webs, turned them into silver and gold tinsel, which we decorate Christmas trees with to this day. Next, I showed her the next several pages of _The Calming Cat Book_. After that, I read the last story in _My Little Pony: 5 Minute Stories_. "The Magic of Friendship." I finished up with the 9th of December's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "So many Toys!" Joy went to the toy department of a big store with her aunt. She wanted to play with the lovely toys, so when her aunt turned her back, she jumped into a packing crate and hid. Soon the store closed, and she jumped out of the box, and started playing with all he toys, undressing the dolls to give them a bath before putting their fancy clothes on for tea with teddies. Two hours later, the night watchman found her fast asleep in a toy house, hugging 8 dolls and ten teddy bears. {Smile}
Still no exercises. I think I want to try, then the tooth feels less normal, and... maybe I should wait until I've recovered from the root canal. I know the same day and next day will not be great. {resigned smile}
I finished writing and hared yesterday's daily update after breakfast. Then I read articles and worked on the cross-stitch game - Cross-Stitch World, if you're curious - in the morning. then after lunch I cleaned myself up before hopping into City of Heroes: Homecoming. It was late for the short and long large-group events again, so I checked who was online, and started checking my characters. I spotted Pierogies, but not Kitten. He was finishing up the early long, large-group event. When he did, we teamed up on the little characters again. We caught a low-level trial, for which I turned my experience off. Then we ran the last mission from our current contact. I remembered to turn on the experience towards the end of that mission, so I was still a level low when we got done. We hunted enemies in the wild until I made level. Then we started the next contact, doing two hunts and a regular mission before it was time to read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming hoping to join the late night short, large-group event, but the zone was full, so I couldn't get in. That can happen if you're close to time, and I was. So, I started writing this up and read a few comics. Then I started checking my characters. After a while, I noticed Kitten had come on, and said hi. We teamed up, and I picked a mid-level character, and a story arc we'd started early this past week. We ran right through my normal exercise time and finished the arc. Part way through, I started talking to Nox, and Haiden joined us for a while. I also talked with Owl Girl, Paradox and Kitten in our group conversation there. After Kitten and I finished teaming we talked on the chat server. I also read articles and played a bit of the cross-stich game before quickly writing this up. {Smile}
