I text-chatted with our former nurse a little. I also checked on our housekeeper by text. I learned to expect her back mid-to-late next week. {Smile}
I got a call from Life Care Center. They had to cancel my physical therapy tomorrow. They expect to resume Wednesday. {Smile}
I helped the relief nurse with minimal cleanup so the house will be in a little better condition when the housekeeper comes back. Not that it's in her job description, so I was surprised but grateful when she suggested it. Home nurses often do light housekeeping, but Mom's too tough a case to ask more than cooking, dishes, and some laundry. {smile}
I tried to call the vet to let them know I'm open to at least trying shots, but I didn't get an answer. I didn't leave a message because I intended to call back but didn't remember to in time. {smile}
I contacted The Fire Ant Guy. He'll come and start treating the house next Wednesday. He spoke of a maintenance schedule after the initial treatment. I would like that. {Smile}
The secretary from Helping Hands Healthcare, our nursing company came by. I caught her up on what's happening, especially with Val and my physical therapy. {smile}
After dinner, I got a short phone call from our former nurse. It was good to hear from him. {Smile}
I had breakfast, lunch, and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. I read scripture and thoughts about it first. Next, I read two Christmas cards from her cousin and sister. then, I continued reading _Visions of Scotland_. I showed her each picture, reading each caption. She wasn't quite as quiet, looking at each picture, and commenting on a couple. Then I read "Rwandan Drone Cuts Delivery Time for Life-Saving Meds," from _100 Uplifting Short Stories for Seniors_. In part because of fewer airspace regulations than more developed countries normally have, and in part because of a commitment to this project by the country, they're really cutting down the delivery time for blood for transfusions and other life-saving medications. I finished with the June 30th story, "Sophie's Dream," about a girl who dreamed of waking up and going to a party nearby, only to wake up and find it was a dream. It was from _366 Stories for Bedtime: A Tale for Every Day of the Year_. I think Mom enjoyed both pictures and readings. {Smile}
I did my arm resistance, walking, arm swinging, and standing arm weight training exercises right after dinner. I did my head and sitting arm weight training after the task force with Phonso. I had no shoulder problems like I did earlier in the week. {Smile}
I read a few comics after breakfast, and more after lunch. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started with paperwork and some soloing while I tried to find someone to play with. I realized from looking at my friends-list that bowlofdro was going to the later short, large-group event, and decided to go too. I enjoyed playing with him and other friends there, especially one from the chat server days who was leading. Then bowlofdro and I went to the later long, large group event. I found myself on my RP partner's team and said hi. I enjoyed running the event with friends, too. Then I did some paperwork and left to read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner and the earlier exercises, I hopped back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I said goodnight to bowlofdro as he was going off for the evening. Then I did some paperwork and soloing, with a pause for the phone call with our former nurse. After the phone call, I started talking with Chili Bear. Then Phonso came on and invited me to a task force. I invited Chili Bear, since Phonso always tries for a full team, and Chili Bear joined. Then I started checking the rest of my friends list and found one other friend who joined. We ran the task force and finished nicely. Then I did some paperwork and looked around. There weren't many friends on, and they looked busy, so I got together with a fellow who was running a story arc. So did one other, and we did a mission and a hunt together. Then we did another mission, but it was glitched. We searched at great length for the last critter. The third person left, two others came in to help, one of them left, and I finally suggested we restart. I told him how to reset the mission, and he did so. The second Time Worked Fine. Then the group split up, and I did paperwork before making notes to finish the next day. {Smile}
