Daily Update, November 28, 2025

Friday at breakfast I got a call from Auntie Barbara. We finalized plans for our Thanksgiving left over lunch that day. She picked Wailoa Park, and I would bring dessert, while she brought the rest, since I have lots of leftover pie, and she has lots of leftovers of all kinds. {Smile}

Then before lunch my main nurse took me down to Wailoa Park, where we found that Auntie Barbra had already picked a pavilion. It was one of the small pavilions added when I was an adult, not any of the big pavilions that were there when I was a kid. She brought turkey, a sweet potato dish, cranberry sauce, green beans, stuffing that we both ate. She also brought some bread that I saved for later. I brought both blueberry pie, half eaten in an odd pattern, and blueberry cheesecake that she said to save for church, since it wasn't open. We were attended by several park ducks, but we didn't feed them. {Smile}

Afterwards, we took a walk over to a pair of steeply arched foot bridges. I reminisced about loving to go on them as a kid when we came to the park for a party or something. I called them "rollercoasters for the feet" because they'd help you speed up when running down in the middle, so your momentum carried you up part of the next rise before you had to climb on your own. Auntie Barbara got excited because this was the very first time that she'd been on any of the arched foot bridges, or the island in between these two, since we did the two that both go to a tiny island from opposite banks of the river. Then we went back and found my main nurse, who took me home. {Smile}

At home, I found housekeeper was already at work. We caught up with each other. Somehow, the conversation got onto the season theory for finding clothes that look good on you. I showed her how to try colors to figure out your season after trying to explain the theory. Then I went into my closet and found a mu'umu'u that flattered Mom better than me, since I am a winter, while Mom was a fall like my housekeeper. I was afraid it was too small, so I asked her to try it on. It fit perfectly and looked at least as good on her as it did on Mom, which is certainly better than it's ever looked on me, so I gave it to her. She told me it's perfect for an upcoming family party where she's been asked to dance a hula. It should be good for that, since it's a slimmer sheath than most mu'umu'u, so you can see the dance better. {Smile}

After breakfast, I got onto my computer and read articles on the web. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming to continue preparing my higher-level teen supergroup member for gaining level. I also improved her slightly right now, right up until it was time to leave. {Smile}

When we got back, I got onto my computer and read articles on the web until I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I finished preparing and improving the higher-level teen supergroup member for now. Then I checked on my friends who play the game. Next, I switched characters and went to villain supergroup meeting. I was slightly late, but I was the second one to arrive there. I joined the leader, and we talked. We continued talking as Dr. Faustus joined us, and eventually ran a short story arc my character had. It was kind of the third initiation that character has done to the same organization. Next, we did a follow-up talk mission. These took me up to dinner with my main nurse. {Smile}

After dinner I read articles on the web and wrote up my daily update. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Then I updated my second-best badges collector's and third-best badge collector's badge records. I also chatted with Divi a little. then I got a new badge on the second-best badge collector and started something that should get two more. During it, Dragons said hi and invited me to a kind of mission my third-best badge collector needed another of for another badge. I ran that mission and got that badges. Then I switched to my fourth-best badge collector and started work on similar badges. We did a few missions, the last mine, and restarted when a few of Dragons' friend joined us. After that mission, the others continued, but I said goodnight and started making notes in this. I paused to update my badge records of my second-best badge collector again. Then I got the easy badge on the third-best badge collector and updated her record again.  After that, I finished notes in this. I finished my evening by saying the Lord's Prayer and reading Forward Day by Day. {Smile}
