Daily Update, November 25, 2024

On Monday after breakfast, I called the pharmacy to order a prescription. {Smile}

Then I called my doctor's office and got through this time. I told them about a boil on my back that I've been taking care of on my own. it is better, but not well yet. They'll order some medicine for me. {Smile}

I also called my financial adviser. I left a message when I got their answering machine. I meant to call them back, but didn't get around to it, and they didn't call me either. {smile}

Our housekeeper came Monday afternoon. Our house definitely cleaner and better for her attentions. {Smile}

ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. Mom was resting but awake when I went in distinctly late after paying our housekeeper. She kind of drowsed, but I think she was looking at pictures with her eyes not quite shut. First, I began with scripture and thoughts about it. Next, I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2019. Then I finished sharing pictures in _The 40 Cutest Mother & Child Photographs_. After that, I read "Tiana's Growing Experiment" in _Disney Princess 5-minute Princess Stories_. I finished with November 25th's story, "Cleo's Hat" in _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

After playing on City of Heroes: Homecoming for much of the evening, I did my salsa dancing. First, I did my warm-up. After a break, I did a less structured piece, and after another break, I did a second less structured piece. I did them all with my pelvic floor and abdomen tucked in. That was a little over 20 1/2 minutes of salsa dancing, albeit with an extra break. I can work on getting it down to two sets next. {Smile}

After breakfast and the phone calls, I read comics before I cleaned myself up. Then I ate lunch while I hopped into Vindictus. I found Div, and we talked. I told him about my German friend joining our supergroup. I think he likes having another member. Then we teamed up, and did a few missions, during which the housekeeper came. Div left early, so I did some Vindictus paperwork before I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. No one I usually team with was on, I did paperwork there until Pierogies came on. We fit in a mission before I left. Then I paid our housekeeper before I read to Mom. {Smile}

After dinner, I tried to write up Sunday's daily update, but really struggled to focus, with breaks for playing Cross Stitch World, reading comics, and starting notes and writing in this. I finally did finish and hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I talked with Ulty and Jenny's Player and did some paperwork. Then I played by myself, and discovered some of those missions are harder than I expected them to be. I eventually gave up doing missions to do more paperwork. Then I did my salsa dancing, with videos in the breaks and afterwards. I made more notes in this afterwards, too. {Smile}
