Daily Update September 18, 2024

On Wednesday, after breakfast, I had a video appointment with the nutritionist. I think it went well. She's happy with my gradual weight loss progress and with the healthier snacks I have been switching to. She had a suggestion with the snacks, and she'll let me know if she thinks of more. {Smile}

I had a text conversation with my British friend on the chat server again. I should say that I have several British friends, but he might be the only one who's sometimes active on the chat server. {Smile}

I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. Mom was awake when I went in. She paid attention to the reading throughout. She seemed to enjoy it, and even said she did at least once. I started with scripture and thoughts about it first. Next, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from last year. After that, I continued _The Picture Book of Babies_. Then I read a story from _My Little Pony 5-Minute Stories_. I ended with September 18th's story, "Mushrooms," in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

I did my head exercises, and my arm resistance exercises after playing on City of Heroes: Homecoming for much of the evening. After a break, I did my arm swinging exercises even though it was slightly late for them. It's an improvement over the day before. {Smile}

After the video appointment, I played Cross Stitch World. Then I had lunch and read some comics. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming and started on paperwork. Then Pierogies said hi, and we talked and teamed up. We did a few missions on my character who's going up in levels. After a few, we said goodnight. Then Dennis said hi. So did Kitten. Then three of us got together and started doing other missions with me on the same character. A friend of Kitten's that I'm acquainted with joined us. The four of us did a couple more missions before I left to read to Mom. {Smile}

After dinner, I played a lot of Cross Stitch World while thinking about things. Then I finished writing Tuesday's daily update. After that I hopped back into City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I started on paperwork while talking with Divi. Then Kitten said hi, and Kitten and I teamed up. We cleared a couple of harder hunts, then ran some regular missions that same character has. We started a story arc when I could. I also talked a little with Nox on the chat server, too. Then Kitten asked about my exercise time I thought I had time for one more mission first, but Kitten went quiet, so I did paperwork before my exercises. Next, I played a little more Cross Stitch World before I began working on this, doing a mix of notes and writing. Then I did more exercise and a tiny bit more paperwork before I finished working on this, mostly making more notes to write from the next day. {Smile}
