I slept on my back most of the night, trying to give my arms and shoulder some support. Today, they seem to be much better. I hope the support, plus a good dose of electrolytes yesterday did the trick. {Smile}
I ate breakfast and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. Mom was asleep when I got there, but woke up easily, and looked at the pictures with a little prompting. First, I started with scripture and thoughts about it. After that, I continued the long family Christmas letter from her niece from 2019. Next, I continued _Cats on Quilts_. Then I read "The Golden Goose" in _Five-Minute Stories: Over 50 Tales and Fables_. I ended with the 8th of March's story from _366 Stories for Bedtime_, "Mrs. Ferret's Breakfast." {Smile}I did my arm resistance exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. Then I tested my arm swinging and arm weight training exercises after dinner, to see which my arms were ready for. Next, I did my arm swinging exercises while waiting for Phonso's second taskforce. After the task force and the zombie apocalypse that followed, I did one of my sitting arm weight training exercises, then, after a break, tried the other three sitting arm weight training exercises and the two standing arm weight training exercises, but my arms and shoulder aren't ready for any of them yet. Then I did my walking exercises, all seven, including the new ones. Then after a break, I did my standing exercises. I didn't increase the repetitions notably, but I am up around where I usually was before the root canal. {Smile}
I played Cross Stitch World in the morning and wrote Thursday's daily update after lunch. Then I cleaned myself up, and still got into City of Heroes: Homecoming much earlier than Thursday. I saw Rivka on, and we teamed up. I introduced them to some individual high-level missions with two particularly good rewards a day. We ran two. Late in the second, Dr. Faustus invited me to a meeting of the urban fantasy villain group. I asked if Rivka could come too; he said yes. So, we joined the group after the second mission. They were almost ready to run a story arc, so we got right in on it. We got done just in time for me to read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner, I started to write this up. Then I did a little Cross Stitch World before I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Not many of the friends I team with often were on, and those that were on were already on full teams. So, I said hi to a friend I hadn't talked or teamed with in a while. We got together on low-level characters and did some of my missions; I had a bunch I'd begun to out-level that weren't quite too low to be rewarding. Phonso joined us near the end. We got all the old missions done and started newer ones. Then the friend I'd started with left, and I asked Phonso to do a taskforce. He is good at leading those, with all the practice he has. I also said goodnight to Nox on the chat server. Then I asked Phonso for a second taskforce, and Pierogies came on just in time to join us. We ran that one, and Phonso and I said goodnight. Pierogies tried to, too, but he and I both ended up staying for the zombie apocalypse that followed our second taskforce, since for once it happened in the zone we were in. The zone is random, so it's usually some other zone. Then I did my exercises, some paperwork, a little Cross Stitch world, watched a video, and made notes to write this from. {Smile}
