Daily Update, January 12, 2024

    On Friday, part of me wanted to go out and do some errands, but I didn't want to be out when the provider called about fixing my email. I ended up not going out, and not getting a call. I guess I'll try calling them on Monday, before my hearing aids' appointment with the audiologist. {smile}

   I ate lunch and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. She was awake when i went to read to her, and looked at all the pictures. I began with scripture and thoughts about it first. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from last year. Then I continued "'Classic Christmas' Vintage Fine Art Picture Book Volume 2." Next, I read a story from _Disney 3-Minute Bedtime Stories_. I finished with the 12th of January's poem from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "Winter." It says the snow and wind are outside, while assorted animals are inside, resting, where a fire keeps them warm. Stephanie is at the window, watching the wind and snow outside. {Smile}

   I did my salsa dancing warmup before cleaning myself up before lunch, and another salsa dancing piece between cleaning myself up and lunch. Again, it was not quite 15 minutes between them. Then I did my head exercises much later, a while after teaming for the evening. {Smile}

   I read comics and articles around finishing and sharing yesterday's daily update in the morning and hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming after lunch. I found Div and Pierogies, and we teamed up. We ran several of my missions before Div left for the day. Then Pierogies asked about watching a show, so we settled into a farm, and watched three episodes of RWBY. After that, we chatted a bit before I went to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I hopped onto City of Heroes: Homecoming and found Pierogies still farming. We chatted a bit, then tried to get into the late-night short, large-group event, but the zone was full. So, we ran a few missions together. I chatted briefly with TheCyberChill, too. Then Pierogies settled into a farm, inviting me to leave my character in there while I started to write this up, which I did. When I was done, TheCyberChill was gone too, so I worked on paperwork until I connected with Dr. Faustus. We teamed up, doing several moderately high-level missions I got on a character I wanted to work on. TheCyberChill joined us after a while, on a lower-level character. I think they wanted to level. I tried to tone it down so it wouldn't be too frustrating for them, while still making it decent experience and such. Eventually, Dr. Faustus left. TheCyberChill and I teamed for a couple more missions before they left, too. Then I did three hunts my character could do on their own. After that, I worked on paperwork, did my exercises, wrote a little of this and made notes to write the rest of this from the next day.
