Daily Update, February 18, 2024

    On Sunday, I called Uber after breakfast. A nice, moderately chatty man came and took me to church. I got there just after communion, when it was ending. I only got to take part in a prayer and the recessional. However, I did get all of the rest of the annual meeting, as well as a very generous lunch. The Kubos took me home. I'm right on the route he takes his mother home on. {Smile}

   After I got home and rested a bit, I fiddled with Ko Fi a little more. I think I'm as set up there as feasible until I get a blog or other site to connect to it, but here's the page: https://ko-fi.com/anneelizabethbaldwin , {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. She was awake and enjoyed all the pictures and stories today. I started with scripture and thoughts about it first. Then I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2020. Next, I continued 1950's Fashion in Pictures_. After that, I read the last story in _Richard Scarry's 5-minute Stories_, "Ma Pig's New Car." To finish off, I read the 18th of February's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "Annabel's Doll." Annabel's Doll, Bella, went everywhere with her. One day, Annabel's aunt took her to a toyshop to pick out a doll's tea set. Belle went along, and Anabel put her next to two dolls having a tea party with a toy tea set complete with five toy cakes. When the tea set was chosen and bought, Annabel went to pick up Bella. She thought Bella had a funny smile, and there were only four cakes. {Smile}

   I did my head exercises and arm swinging exercises while waiting for Uber to come get me, but I barely got started walking around the driveway when they came; I didn't even get one time around. When I finished with teaming for the evening, I did my arm resistance exercises, followed by my salsa dancing warm-up. After a break, I did my less structured salsa dancing set. {Smile}

   After I got home from church, I played some Cross Stitch World to recuperate. Then I cleaned myself up and hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. There, I found Kitten and Pierogies. I talked with Pierogies, and teamed up with both, but we didn't run missions. Instead, Kitten and Pierogies searched frantically for a show we could all watch. I tried to help, too. Kitten finally came up with an Equestria Girls episode. that's a My Little Pony spinoff where the ponies are (mostly) human. We talked a little after that, but not long because it was soon time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming again. Kitten was there, but unresponsive. Dark was there, too, and quite happy to talk and team up. We ran several missions on a fairly high-level character I'm hoping will reach the end game before too much longer. I also started writing this. I said hi to Nox not long before they left, but we did get to talk a little. Kitten came in and joined Dark and me in the last mission before Dark left. Then kitten and I ran... I meant it to be one mission, but it turned out to be a mini arc, with two short missions with a talk session between them. We did get it all done. Then I did my exercises, talking with Kitten on the chat server in between and afterwards. I also wrote a little more of this and made a lot of notes for it. {Smile}
