Tuesday, I picked out a book on friendship, picked with the counselor's advice in mind, if not followed precisely. I'd asked for resources on both romantic relationships and friendship. The counselor was pushing workbooks, because they make you do stuff beyond just thinking. What I found was a regular book that has a companion workbook. So far, I like it, judging from the introduction, first two-and-a-partial chapters, thanks to online samples plus an eBook copy I borrowed through the public library online.
I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. She was resting when I went in, but s lowly roused, then more quickly when we got to the baby pictures and stayed more awake after them. She does like baby pictures. First, I began my reading with scripture and thoughts about it, starting with yesterday's entry, then reading today's entry. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2021. Then I continued _Picture Book of Happy Babies_, showing her each picture, reading a short caption, and saying a bit about the baby. Next, I read four stories from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I finished with the 22nd of July's story, "Lost and Found" and the 23rd of July's story, "The Silly Hen" from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}I did my arm resistance exercises between reading to mom and dinner. then I did my standing arm weight training exercises and my arm swinging exercises after dinner. Then I did my salsa dancing warmup after teaming and solo play on City of Heroes: Homecoming in the evening. I followed that with my head exercises. After a break, I did my less structured salsa dancing set. After another break, I did 8 of my walking exercises. I think that's doing pretty good, since the walking exercises are the second most strenuous, with only the salsa dancing being more strenuous. {Smile}
After breakfast, I read articles and played Cross stitch world before I started browsing on Amazon for a book, which continued over lunch. After lunch I wrote up Monday's daily update. Then I checked out the book's samples at Amazon and the public library's eBook website. That ended with me checking the eBook out from the library's website. Next, I cleaned myself up. Then I hopped into City of heroes: Homecoming. Pierogies and I found each other, and we teamed up. We did a few moderately low-level missions before we parted, him for me, and me to read to Mom. {Smile}
After dinner and my exercises, I begin writing this up. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I found Dennis, and we teamed up. We did a mix of my missions and his missions most of the evening. I also tried to chat with Nox on the chat world, but we mainly said goodnight. Then I did paperwork and solo hunting after Dennis left, Next came salsa dancing and exercises, and I watched videos during my breaks, both between the salsa dancing sets, and between the second set and my walking exercises. After that, I did some quick City of Heroes: Homecoming paperwork. I also made notes in this and wrote a little more of it. {Smile}
