Daily Update, September 28, 2024

 Saturday I just spent the day quietly at home. not even any notable phone calls to report. {Smile}

I ate breakfast and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner, Mom was awake when I went in. She looked at the pictures with some interest. First, I started with scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I read three cards, one from church, and the other two from the nursing company that takes care of us. then, I started _The 40 Cutest Mother & Child Photographs_. After that, I read a story from _5-Minute Mary Engelbreit Fairy Tales_. I ended with September 28th's story, "" in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

I did my arm resistance exercises between reading to Mom and dinner. I tried with them but recovered quite enough to do my arm swinging exercises after playing City of Heroes: homecoming for much of the evening. That tired me, too, but a break let me do my head exercises as well. Then I stopped, because the rest just gets harder, and I'd already gotten tired twice. I hope to do more tomorrow, after mostly taking it easy today after physical therapy. {Smile}

After breakfast, I browsed on the web and played a little Cross Stitch World. Then I began writing Friday's daily update when I realized it was a bit close to lunch to clean myself up. After lunch, I wrote a little more of Friday's daily update before hopping into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started with a good bit of paperwork, then went on to play by myself. Few I regularly talk to were on, and the paperwork led to individual missions and unofficial hunts that I can really do by myself. At one point, I did join in fighting a zombie apocalypse when I came out of a mission to find one going right in the zone I was in. I was concentrating on developing my top-level characters in new ways, as Pierogies finally helped me see how to do that. Eventually, I broke to clean myself up before reading to Mom. {Smile}

After dinner and a little exercise, I played some Cross Stitch World before I finished writing up Friday's daily update. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming and started on more paperwork. I also chatted with Jenny's player a bit. Then I joined a taskforce, and we did it with one false start. I also talked with Nox on the chat server for a bit. Dennis said hi over half-way through the task force. After it was done, I teamed up with Dennis for a few of his missions. He had some old ones, and one good one. Then Dennis and I said goodnight and he left for bed. I ended with a bunch more paperwork, then did a few more exercises, and more web browsing than I meant to that close to bedtime, especially the night before church. I did insist on beginning to write this up and taking notes to write from the next day before bed, too. {Smile}
