Daily Update, March 14, 2024

    On Thursday, I had my video counselling appointment. I think we got something important discussed. {Smile}

   I thought a lot about writing and my future, too, while playing Cross Stitch World. {Smile}

   I ate lunch and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. Mom was awake when I got there. She seemed to enjoy looking at the pictures, especially the ones of the babies, and the children with animals.  First, I began with scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I continued the long family Christmas letter from her niece from 2019. Then I finished "The Happy Book: Babies," and started "The Picture Book of Kids and Animals," which she even said she likes. After that, I read "Little Red Riding Hood" in _Five-Minute Stories: Over 50 Tales and Fables_. I ended with the 13th of March's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "The Baby Donkey." {Smile}

   I did my arm resistance exercises and arm swinging exercises after dinner. Then I did my standing arm weight training exercises and my walking exercises, adding yet another exercise to my walking exercises. Before I started physical therapy, I had five walking exercises. With the two I added last week and the one I added tonight, I have eight now. Then I took a short break, and continued by doing my head exercises, my leg exercises, and my sitting arm weight resistance exercises. So, no salsa dancing - it felt too ambitious for the day after physical therapy - but everything else, and even a new walking exercise. {Smile}

   I wrote a bit of Wednesday's daily update between breakfast and counselling. After the counselling, I played Cross Stitch World and thought about writing and my future. I also wrote more of my daily update before lunch. Then I finished my daily update after lunch. Next, I played some more Cross Stitch World and thought about writing. I also read some comics before cleaning myself up. After that, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I found Pierogies. He was waiting for the later long, large-group event to start. He suggested I join it too, so I did, and we did the event together. Then we talked afterwards, and I joined him in a farm while I read to Mom, ate dinner, and settled in after dinner. {Smile}

   After supper I started exercising and began writing this up. I also read some more comics. I've found a new one about a boy and his cat... or a cat and his boy, depending on which you ask, I'm sure. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. There, I fooled around in Pierogies' farm. I tried to find a friend to team up with, but the few who were on weren't answering, except for Mysty, who wasn't feeling well enough to get together. I considered joining a pick-up-group, which is a team of strangers, but decided to collect badges on my fifth best badge collector instead. Then Phonso came on and invited me to quick taskforce which I happily leapt to join. I do like to team with friends, even if they're making a pick-up-group. Phonso invites many friends, some of whom do join if they're free and have the time, so its friendlier than most pick-up-groups. I also said goodnight to Nox on the chat server, having missed them again. After the taskforce, I did a fair bit of more badge collecting on my fifth best badge collector. I also read a couple more comics, did most of my exercises, watched a video. Then I wrote a little of this and made a lot of notes to write from on Friday. {Smile}
