Daily Update, July 11, 2024

    On Thursday, our housekeeper came in the afternoon for a regular length work session. It was great seeing her, and our house is definitely better for her attentions. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. I wasn't as late. She was sitting up and alert when I went in. She rested at times, but looked at most of the pictures, especially the baby pictures. First, I started my reading with scripture and thoughts about it. Then I read two Christmas cards, one from her friend, and the other from her niece. After that, I finished _The Happy Book: Babies_. Next, I read a long story from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I ended with the 11th of July's story, "Good Neighbors," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

   I did one of my four sitting arm weight training exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. then I did my head exercises after dinner After a break, I did my arm swinging exercises too. After teaming, I did my salsa dancing warmup set, all 8 1/2 minutes of it in one go. Then I did my arm resistance exercises after a break. After another break, I realized it was getting late, and I wasn't ready to do more salsa dancing, so I did 8 of my 14 walking exercises in one go. By the end, I was tired enough, I figured that was enough for one evening. {Smile}

   After breakfast, I spent most of the morning explaining a lot of the paperwork I do in City of Heroes: Homecoming. They're ready to get into that part of the game. Then I had lunch. After that, I wrote up Wednesday's daily update. Then I read comics. The housekeeper came, and I cleaned myself up with her assurances she'd work elsewhere until I was done. I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming later than I like, but earlier than the day before. There, I found Kitten. We teamed up and did a couple of missions before it was time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   After dinner, I began writing this up, and did a little exercise. then I hopped into City of Heroes: homecoming. I found Pierogies, who invited me to join him in a farm, and even help with it. We talked and farmed until he said he was tired. then he went to bed, and I worked on the paperwork the farming produced. then I talked with Divi a bit in the game, and Nox on the chat server. I was just considering playing alone when Dennis said hi. So, we teamed up, which I far prefer to solo play. We did a couple of my missions. Kitten joined us in the first one and stayed with us. then Dennis said goodbye and left. Kitten and I did another mission. Then I stopped to exercise, I chatted with Kitten on the chat server and researched stuff between exercises. After that I wrote a little more of this and made notes, interrupted with more research and a little Cross Stitch World. {Smile}
