I am seriously considering starting a blog where I could share stories, and maybe write about stories, either mine or not. I hope this will give me the maximum flexibility while I work out writing and posting regularly. I wondered if anyone had any suggestions? I'm wondering about best days to post, what folks might like to see and such. {Smile}
Monday was a day of phone calls. I made a phone call to my doctor, and two to my cardiologist to clarify things about medicine I'm to take. I tried to call my gynecologist about medicine too, but somehow the phone didn't connect properly the two or so times I tried. I guess I'll try again some other day. {Smile}
I also got two phone calls from Auntie Barbara, arranging to get together on Wednesday, along with Michelle. That sounds much more fun! {SMILE}
I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. She was resting when I went in, but opened her eyes when I I said hello, and each time I mentioned looking at pictures. She answered a few times, too. First, I started with scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I continued with her niece's long family Christmas letter from this year. Then I continued _1950's Memory Lane_, showing and reading the next few pages. After that, I read more from _The Mother Goose Treasury_, reading the poems and showing her the pictures. I finished with the 18th of December's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "The Early Lamb." A few days before Christmas, a lamb was born in the stable. Mary, the farmer's daughter, was worried, since it was born in the middle of winter, instead of early spring. Its mother didn't have enough milk, so the lamb got weaker. Mary's mother helped her line a box with an old blanket and put it in the kitchen to make a warm bed. Mary fed it cow's milk with a bottle, and it grew stronger. It followed Mary around, and she took it out for exercise and grass to eat. In the early spring the other lambs were born. May's lamb joined them in the field and taught them skipping. {Smile}
I did my head exercises and walking exercises after we finished teaming, and I'd been talking in a farm with Kitten for a while. Then it got too late, but I did more than last night. {Smile}
I read articles and caught up on comics in the morning and over lunch when I wasn't on the phone. Oh, and I set up a signature file in my email which should help me provide the link to my blog if anyone's interested. I can add another link if I start that fiction blog. Then I cleaned myself up before hoping into City of Heroes: Homecoming too late to join the early short, large group event. I looked around, and did some badge collecting, but didn't really settle until it was late for the early long, large-group event, too. Then I started talking with Kitten. They wanted to work on statistic improving badges. Pierogies said hi and joined us, first showing interest in seasonally available badges. Kitten thought that ought to take priority because they aren't readily available most of the year, but Pierogies chose the stat-improving stuff because it would be useful in getting the other later. they told me to lead the way, trusting me to organize things well. I lead them around to the badges you just have to visit, then told and showed them what critters we needed to get. Pierogies wanted to get the toughest critter while I read to Mom. So I helped him until I left for that. {Smile}
I checked back briefly between reading and dinner, and again after dinner. He was still going both times. We chatted and I helped he finished up, determined not to leave until my character - who had to be as low as anyone - had the badge we were looking for. then he left to set up a farm to run overnight while he went to bed. Then I started writing this up, getting more than I had been, though not as much as yesterday. Next, I came back and started badging. I also started and talking with Dr. Faustus on the chat server. Kitten came back to City of Heroes: Homecoming, and we teamed up. We settled on a task force, and I arranged it, advertising, and inviting Mysty to join us, which she did. I started talking with Nox on the chat server around this time. After that short task force, Kitten and I started another, much longer task force four times before getting it set up right. Then we got what we most wanted from it in the first mission. So we quit, and Kitten did a farm where we chatted. I got so into the chatting, I started my exercises late, but I did get some done. After that, I wrote more of this up, making notes to write from the next day when it got late. {Smile}
