Daily Update, September 22, 2024

On Sunday, after breakfast, I contacted Uber. The driver they picked was fairly close and quite nicely chatty. I arrived a little before the announcements despite barely getting bed earlier the night before. {Smile}

It was a nice service, followed by a nice lunch with friends, with not that many desserts for once. Our parish does love to bring deserts. {Smile}

A couple of guys took me home. I really enjoyed talking with them on the way. They're fun. {Smile}

Home communion came by later, after visiting another gal nearby first. I joined Mom and the nurse in having communion with them. It's really for Mom. I can get to church, and our nurse isn't really a member, for all that I suspect we're the church he doesn't go to, if you understand that phrase. {Smile}

I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. I to her late, but Mom was wide awake when I went in and stayed awake while I read. I started with scripture and thoughts about it first. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from last year. Then I continued _The Happy Book Babies_. Next, I read the last story from _My Little Pony 5-Minute Stories_, finishing the book. I ended my reading with September 21st's story, "Winter Stores," in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

I did my arm swinging exercises while waiting for Uber to come and take me to church. Both the driver and I were impressed with how that ended just as he arrived. After playing on City of Heroes: Homecoming when I wasn't talking with Kitten on the chat server most of the evening, I did my first 8 walking exercises, including two hard ones. Then I did my head exercises, squeezing them in a little later than I'd like. I really should get to these earlier. {smile}

After I got home from church, I played Cross Stitch World and researched video cards until home communion came. After home communion, I wrote more of Saturday's daily update. Then I hopped into City of Heroes Homecoming and started on paperwork. I didn't find anyone I like play with, so I started playing by myself. Then Dennis said hi, checked out a giant monster, then joined me to help me finish my mission. After the mission we said goodnight before I left to read to Mom. {Smile}

After dinner I finished writing Saturday's daily update. I also talked with Kitten on chat server at some length. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Not seeing anyone I started on paperwork, then looked around. All I usually like to talk to had disappeared, so I played by myself on some of my characters while researching video cards. That's one way to avoid complaints about distracted play. I heard from more of my tech-oriented friends over the day, with one favoring the higher end model, and others favoring the lower end model. Which is still a lot more than I had, let alone what I have now, She put a weaker graphics card in because that's what was on hand. I said goodnight to Nox, having missed talking with them. Then I played more Cross Stitch World and did some of my exercises. Next, I did some more research, some more exercises and some more Cross Stitch World before I finished writing and making notes in this for the evening.
