Daily Update, May 6, 2023

    Today was physical therapy, so I called Uber, and went over to Life Care Center. The driver was pleasant and chatty. {Smile}

   I had a good session. Both the taps and the turns were the best yet: much less wobbly, and mostly in time with the music, or pretty close. My therapist wants to mix them up, so it's more interesting, as well as a little more challenging. I'm really looking forward to this. {SMILE}

   I took Uber back with another pleasant driver. {Smile}

   I had a nice phone call with Auntie Barbara. It was good to catch up with her, telling her some recent news, and hearing her recent news, as well. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that I read scripture and thoughts about it, followed by a long Christmas letter from 2018. It was from a friend of her sister. After that, I read about the Little People, especially elves and fairies, from Fantasy Encyclopedia by Judy Allen. Next, I read "'Tiger King' Bill Prevents Private Ownership of Big Cats," from _100 Uplifting Short Stories for Seniors_. Then I finished with the May 6th story from 366 Stories for Bedtime: A Tale for Every Day of the Year. Mom liked what I read to her, and the pictures, too. She was already awake when I got there and seemed to be listening. {Smile}

   No exercise beyond physical therapy today. That was enough for one day. {Smile}

   I finished yesterday's daily update over and after lunch, then read several comics. Then I hopped into city of Heroes: Homecoming late. I checked a couple of characters, and was starting to work on a badge when my RWBY friend came in. He joined me in working on the badge for a little. Then we tried to join the later short, large-group event, but the zone was full. So, we went to work on the badge some more, then joined later long, large-group event. That took us fairly close to time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I hopped onto City of Heroes: Homecoming, but didn't find anyone on who I particularly felt like teaming with. I started to work on that badge some more and was happy to take a break when Auntie Barbara called. After that, I worked on the badge until I got bored enough, I wanted to try something else. I ran a few player-made mission to get a particular currency to buy something for some paperwork I wanted to do. It turned out to be easier to the get what I wanted than I feared. I also chatted with Nox on the chat server and read some more comics. {Smile}
