Daily Update, April 13, 2025

Sunday was a day to recover from Saturday. I got up for breakfast a little late, then went right back to bed for a couple more hours of sleep. Next, I got up for lunch. After lunch, I felt up to sitting at the computer, and continued to get better over the day, until I felt almost normal in the evening, except for a couple of small messes. {Smile}

However, I didn't get any exercise beyond being sick. I thought that was enough. {rueful smile}

After lunch, I played Cross Stitch World and browsed on the web. Then I began writing up Saturday's daily update. After that, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started with paperwork. Then Kitten said hi. I felt just up to running a low-level character, so we teamed up with me on one. We did a couple of hunts together before Kitten went quiet and faded out. So, I went back to doing paperwork. Next, I played Cross Stitch World and started writing in this. Then I did more paperwork until Pierogies said hi. We teamed up for most of a short story arc - two hunts and a mission - ending right at dinner time. Which is why we didn't do the last mission. {Smile}

After dinner, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming and started with paperwork. Then I realized that Dennis was on. We chatted, then teamed up, and Kitten joined us. The three of us ran a few missions, getting Dennis and my second-best badge collector a few badges each. We ended with a story arc, after which Dennis went to bed, and Kitten went quiet and faded out, probably asleep. So, I did some paperwork and badge collecting. Then I finished writing Saturday's update up. Next, I played Cross Stitch World. After that, I made more notes in this and did a little more paperwork in City of Heroes: Homecoming. {Smile}

Daily Update, April 12, 2025

Saturday was not a good day for me. It started with forgetting to warn my main nurse that I really wanted to go to Hilo Public Library before lunch. There were misunderstandings involved, but the main problem was a bad habit of mine which I really need to work on: communicating clearly my plans for going out with the folks who will take me in plenty of time for both of us to get ready. {rueful smile}

I did enjoy the trip to the library. I got five manga, four from a series I'm following currently, and an apparently stand-alone that looks quite interesting. I didn't know that manga could be stand-alone. I'll have to look into it. {Smile}

My back day continued. I was feeling out of sorts then, too. I really can't guess why for this one. {small smile}

Then, in the middle of the evening, I started to get a lot of intestinal gas. I tried to treat it, even as it began to feel nauseous. Then I had to step away from the computer to throw up. I felt enough better to go back and continue playing City of heroes: homecoming until I found myself fighting a second, similar round of nausea. I excused myself from playing City of Heroes: Homecoming and shut down my computer. Then I got to the bathroom in time to deal with the second round of nausea. After that, I went to be unusually early. I got up for two more bouts. After that, I got up to use the bathroom but managed to return to my bed without throwing up again. {small smile}

I didn't do any exercise, between all the exercise I got at the classes, both the ones I kept, and the ones I didn't, and being sick. I kind of need a rest day to get over being sick... at least I hope one day will do it. We'll see. In any case, I might do more exercise in coming weeks, with only two classes. {Smile}

When we got back from the library, I browsed the web and checked web comics over lunch. I might have played a little Cross Stitch World, too. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started with paperwork, then found Div getting ready to leave again. At least we got to chat first. I also touched base with Kitten, but they were too tired to play again. So, I did some paperwork until Pierogies came on. We teamed up, doing a mission or two before dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I chatted with Ulty and Jenny's Player. Then I found Kitten, and we teamed up. I chose the character they designed, and we did a few missions.  I began feeling gassy after a few missions. As I was coping, Dragons joined us. We ran a few missions, and the sick feeling got worse. I felt so much better after throwing up the first time, I went back to play more, but it didn't last. When a second incident looked likely, I excused myself and shut down my computer hours earlier than usual. I had the second incident on the way to bed, and two more after I was in bed, but somehow avoided messing the bed each time. {smile}
