On Monday after breakfast. I worked on getting some books and presents fixed up to send to Aunt Valerie and my cousin Kim. It took all morning just to box up the books and begin to prepare the box for the presents, both with my substitute relief nurse's help. Oh, and find Kim's presents, which had fallen off a chair behind it, so the chair hid them. the chair was in the computer room tucked into a corner, so you couldn't just walk around it. I had to remove the books that were on the chair, move the chair, get the books off the floor, and put everything else back. Yeah, that took the better part of an hour to find. I didn't even wrap the presents. {Smile}
After lunch, I swiftly got dressed, and my substitute relief nurse and I went to a funeral for a friend of hers. It was at the Catholic Church... somehow, the only funerals I've been to before were at my own church. It was interesting to see how someone else did it. On the way out, we grabbed some take-outs prepared for attendees. Then we went to the ice cream parlor in Liliu'okalani Gardens. We got there just after 3 pm, when they nominally close, but they were still open because one set of customers was slow leaving. So, my substitute relief nurse and I got popsicles. I had haupia, but for the first time, it had lots of shredded coconut in it. It was tasty, but not really haupia, which is a coconut milk dish without the coconut meat in it. Next, we went to Safeway, where I got some medicine that I was low on. My substitute relief nurse picked up a few things, too. Then we went back home. {Smile}
After working on the boxes, I had lunch at my computer while reading articles and watching videos on the web. Then we went out. After we got back, I read articles and comics and watched videos on the web. I also talked with Dr. Faustus on Discord, arranging to level my higher-level teen supergroup member for the meeting the next day, then finish the story arc with them afterwards. This gave her more options of things she could do at the meeting the next day. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Then I worked on the in-game auction house and storage. Next, I checked on my friends again and spotted Kitten this time. I said hi, and we teamed up. Kitten helped me with a short, two-mission story arc on my higher-level teen supergroup member. After a few false starts, I got it set high enough to be rewarding, but not so high as to be too frustrating or slow. I levelled that character between the two missions of the story arc. Dennis joined us at the end of the first mission and helped with the second mission, finishing the story arc. After my story arc, Kitten and I helped Dennis get some badges available only during the winter event, plus a couple only available then and during the Valentine's event. Kitten went quiet and faded out partway through. Dinner happened around this time, but at the computer, so I didn't have to stop playing. {Smile}
After that, Dennis said goodbye after I promised to help him with another mission that gives another badge soon. I worked on the auction house, storage and crafting that playing had produced until Phonso invited me to three trials. I did all three trials with Phonso, though the last was late for me. I snuck in writing up Monday's daily update during recruiting for the first two trials. I said goodnight to Nox after the last trial. Next, I did a little auction house and storage but not much before I started making notes in this. I paused to read some articles on the web before finishing my notes in this. Then I said the Lord's Prayer and read forward Day by Day. {Smile}
