Today was church, and I had a ride offer from AJ Kubo, who was coming back to church after dropping his mom off, since she goes to early service. He called a couple of times to reassure me he was coming, which was great. {Smile}
He dropped me off at church while they were still doing announcements, so I heard much of that, and all of the true service. Afterwards, I did not find the nuts until we were done with lunch, but I had a nice lunch, with nice conversation. I also tracked down our priest and gave her two gently used dolls I'd found. They can be cuddled by the baby, but when they're older, they have buttons, shoes that tie, a zipper each, and one even has a buckle, yet the clothes should not come off. They're to help a child learn to dress themselves. My priest asked if they'd been mine and said that the fact that they had been made them even more special. {Smile}
The Kubo son took me home, too, which was wonderful. {SMILE}
I ate breakfast and dinner with Mom, and read to her before dinner, too. I started with scripture and thoughts about it and continued with more from her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2021. Then, I read more entries about dragon riders and another person in the Weyrs, the homes of the dragons and their riders, from People of Pern by Robin Wood. Next, I read "Dicaprio Raises $100 Million to Fight Climate Change" from _100 Uplifting Short Stories for Seniors_. Then I finished with the April 30th story from 366 Stories for Bedtime: A Tale for Every Day of the Year. Mom liked both readings and pictures. {Smile}
I did my head exercises - the only ones my therapist wants me to do the day after physical therapy. {Smile}
I caught up on the daily comics when I came home, then peeked into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Then I went back out and finished yesterday's daily update before I let myself look around for friends. I knew then I'd feel freer to play, without a personal chore still undone for the day. When I did go in and look around, i found my RWBY friend. We chatted, and teamed up, doing some mid-level missions. They were fun and took us all the way up to where I read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner, I hopped back into City of Heroes: Homecoming, and found Darkthough1 and Mistress Aegis. We teamed up and finished a story arc that I'd started - the same one I had done yesterday. I kind of wish I'd mixed it up more. I tend to run one arc a few times on different characters in a few days, and that's less interesting than more variety would be, both for me, and for my friends, I think. Kitten joined us, complaining of an odd craving. They were quick to chat, and slow to join the missions, but they did join the last few missions in the arc. Then DarkThough1 and Mistress Aegis left for bed, and Kitten wanted to do a particular story arc, no, not the same one. I found a character who would benefit from running it with them more than the first three I looked at, and we started it. We did a few missions, but we have a lot to do. I missed Nox again, until they said goodnight. We've got to work on speaking enough earlier, we don't miss each other so much. {Smile}
