Monday morning, I had a nap. I'd been late to bed again, and just needed one. It was longer than I hoped for, but I did feel somewhat better for it. I guess I needed it. I was still frustrated that I lost my morning to it. I'm going to try harder to get my nights and mornings earlier, so I have more of a morning to do stuff in. Maybe then I can get into City of Heroes: Homecoming when more friends are around. {Smile}
I also had a phone call with our former nurse after dinner. It was short but ended with a promise to talk more soon. {Smile}I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. I left the game slightly earlier. Mom was sitting when I went in but slightly slow to respond. She was better with pictures to look at, especially the baby pictures and the ones that followed them. I began my reading with scripture and thoughts about it first. After that, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2020. Next, I continued _The Picture Book of Babies_ and was again rewarded with seeing her pay more attention. Then I read two stories and a longer poem from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I finished by reading the 12th of August's story, "The Sand Castle," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}
I did my arm swinging exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. Then I did my head exercises after dinner. After a short break, I did my arm resistance exercises, too. After playing for much of the evening, I did my first eight exercises and paused because I was worn out. I took a break, and then did my other six walking exercises, again wearing myself up. I didn't have time to recover and work on the arm weight training exercises and leg exercises, but considering I was notably tired twice, I think I did okay. {Smile}
Over and after breakfast, I read articles and comics. Then I took that nap. Next, I finished writing Sunday's daily update. That took me into lunch. When I finished, still during lunch, I checked City of Heroes: Homecoming to see who was on. Then I did some paperwork there. Next, I broke to clean myself up. I got back into City of Heroes: Homecoming earlier than sometimes. I started on more paperwork. Then I said hi to Pierogies. We talked and teamed up. I helped him with a couple of high-level villain missions. Kitten joined us. Then Dennis said hi, and he joined us, too. Kitten picked individual missions that get badges as you do more of them. We did one before it was time to read to Mom. I think they might have continued after I left for that. {Smile}
After dinner and exercises, I began writing this up, Then I did a few more exercises before I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. There, I said hi to Kitten. We teamed up. As usual, Kitten wanted me to pick what to do. As I was deciding, I spotted Phonso, and said hi. We joined the strike force he was organizing and ran it. I also talked with Nox on chat server. After the taskforce, the team mostly broke up, but Kitten, I and one other stayed. The new one organized a task force, but only got two more. We tried to run it with a small team. We actually did just fine until a mission to get a particularly nasty monster and its associates. We got about half the associates, but that left the other half and the monster itself. I suggested everything I could think of, but our first tries failed, and the others weren't in a mood to tough it out, which to be honest, was looking less promising when we decided to just give up. The leader, Kitten and I stayed on the team long after. I did paperwork while we all talked, helping the leader prepare to set up an expensive type of character that does earn good money. Eventually, I quit to do exercises. Then I went back and forth between checking City of Heroes: Homecoming, playing Cross Stitch World, checking comics, and writing this around my exercises. After the exercises, I did more writing and also note taking in this. {Smile}
