Daily Update, November 15, 2024

On Friday, after breakfast, I contacted Uber, and a fellow came and too me to physical therapy. It was a good therapy, touching on the new exercises, including one I hadn't understood. I hope I understand it better now. {Smile}

After therapy, I contacted Uber again. This time, they picked Alan to take me home. We loved seeing each other again. We spent the whole ride catching up.  {Smile}

After dinner, I got phone call from Auntie Barbara. We talked about getting ready for Thanksgiving, not that Mom's and mine will be anything but low-key on the day. but Auntie Barbara has an event planned for the Friday, since that's when everyone could come. Also, we plan to get together on Saturday for a lunch of Thanksgiving leftovers, as is our little tradition. {SMILE}

I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. Mom was at least partly awake again when I went in and actually woke up more while I was showing her the pictures of children. She stayed awake after that, too. First, I started with scripture and thoughts about it. Then, I read three cards, one from her cousin's granddaughter, and one from each of her two sisters. After that, I finished sharing the pictures in _Childhood Memories Picture Book_. Those are the pictures she woke up more for. Next, I read a story in _Richard Scarry's 5-Minute Stories_. I finished with November 15th's story, "A Winter Legend," in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

My exercise was all at physical therapy today. They really worked me, too. {Smile}

After physical therapy and lunch with Mom, I played Vindictus. After that I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming, and caught much of the middle long, large-group event. After that, I started to team with Pierogies, who'd also been in the middle long, large group event. Then Dr. Faustus reminded me about the villain supergroup meeting that was on as it is most Fridays. I excused myself and joined the meeting. They wanted to help my character gain levels and experience. I decided she didn't need to keep going up as slowly as she had been. She gained experience, though not a full level, and we finished at a good time for me to go read to Mom/ {Smile}

After dinner, I made notes and wrote in this. Then I wrote up Thursday's daily update with breaks for Cross Stitch World and comics. After that, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming to find that Dark was on! Dennis was on, too, so I teamed up with both of them. Dennis wanted one of two taskforces, preferably with a full team. So, I recruited the rest of a team and started to run one of the taskforces. Partway through, I disconnected. When I got back, Dennis was leading the taskforce. The game doesn't let us hand it off, so he finished it. I didn't mind. I also talked with Nox on the chat server. After the taskforce, Dennis left. Then Dark and I talked. Next, we ran a couple of high-level missions, then talked some more. I've missed him. anyway, I made notes in this while talking to Dark. Then I said goodnight to Dark. {Smile}
