Daily Update, November 8, 2024

On Friday, after breakfast, I contracted Uber. A fellow came and took me to Life Care Center for physical therapy. It was a good session He increased my time on a seated step machine, and worked on combining new stuff with the walking exercises I'm already doing. That meant I only got a little salsa dancing, but I did get to do some. Afterwards, I contacted Uber, and a gal came and took me home. {Smile}

The housekeeper finally came out. She'd been out nursing an injury for a few weeks, so the house definitely needed her attentions, and is certainly feeling better after her visit. {Smile}

I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. Mom was mostly awake when I went in, despite me being late again. This time I would have left the game at what would have been the right time if I'd gone straight to Mom, but I had to pay the housekeeper fist, and that always involves a little talk. Mom seemed a bit drowsy but woke up when I reached the parts with pictures to look at again. I started with scripture and thoughts about it first. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2020. Next, I continued _Picture Book Babies_. Then I read a story from _Richard Scarry's 5-Minute Stories_. I finished with November 8th's story, "Goldie" in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

My exercise was my physical therapy today, and we got a good session in. I'm learning additional things to do with my exercises, to go with the new stuff last week. {Smile}

When I got home from physical therapy, I had lunch, then hopped into Vindictus. When I was done, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I tried to check with the villain supergroup that Dr. Faustus is so active in, but they didn't reply. A lot of members have had things taking them away from their computers recently. I found Kitten, but they said they were too tired, and soon left. Then I checked with the new villain supergroup, but I'd just pulled out my first character, and talked about introducing a new character, because the old one wasn't happy there, and the new one was better. They didn't seem to want me when I'm between characters being members, but we hope to get an entrance interview for the new one soon. I ended up playing by myself on a low-level character until Pierogies on. We talked and began to team up. We started to join a taskforce together until I noticed it was time to read to Mom right then. So, I left, but needed to pay the housekeeper next, so I was still late to read to Mom. {smile}

After dinner, I wrote up Thursday's daily update with a short Cross Stitch World break. Then I began writing and notes in this. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming to find Kitten farming to help level someone. I joined them, then Dennis joined us too. We ran a TF that needs 4 characters- no more and no less. We got some badges, but the new one mis-clicked, and didn't get the reward they really wanted. So, we ran it again and got the rest of the badges. Everyone clicked the right reward this time. Then we ran some of Dennis's missions. I also chatted with Nox on the chat server a little. Phonso joined the four of us, and we ran some more missions. I switched characters in case we got to a particular part. I wanted to be on a character who'd benefit from something, but we didn't get to that part before Dennis left and team broke up. I did some paperwork before I made notes in this, pausing to peek at Vindictus. {Smile}
