Daily Update, April 5, 2026

Happy Easter! If you celebrate it either religiously or secularly, that is. If not, I hope you had a nice day. {Smile}

The night before Sunday, I actually got to bed a little before 1:45. I began to set my alarm clock earlier than 8:30 am but chickened out. I didn't want to make myself sick trying to get up too early. I'm unusually sensitive to that. If I get up an hour earlier all at once, I can give myself two days of jetlag-like symptoms. {smile}

After breakfast, my main nurse took me to church. We arrived just before the offertory, which is just before the part with the Holy Communion itself in it. The service was so far along because they started at 9 am instead of 10 am. They did that because their early service was 6 am for a sunrise service, instead of our usual 8 am. I enjoyed the part of the service I was there for and saved the service sheet to read parts I'd missed, especially the lessons. {Smile}

After the service, we had a large lunch on the lanai. Up walked my cousin Babs, and introduced he hanai granddaughter, and another girl. I'm not sure if the second young woman is another hanai granddaughter, or something else. Anyway, we sat together, and visited, though the second young woman left to sit in the car when the crowd got to be too much for her. None of them like crowds, and it was crowded on the lanai. The one who stayed is very interested in becoming an Episcopalian. I put her in touch with our deacon, since we're between priests. After lunch my main nurse took me home. {Smile}

A couple of hours after we got back from church, my main nurse took me to Laurie's and Lindy's house because Laurie invited me and several others to an Easter Dinner party at 2pm. I took the cake platter we got the day before. I ate so much on top of that large lunch earlier that I had to loosen my abdominal binder, a kind of medical corset I wear. I stayed to the end, then called my main nurse who came and got me, taking me home. We promised I didn't stay long after the rest. I think I stayed just long enough to ease the transition to being alone again. {Smile}

I played Cross Stitch World on the way down to church and back. After church, I got onto my computer. I barely browsed on the internet, instead concentrating on writing up Saturday's daily update. Then I read comics until I got ready for the party. I played Cross Stitch World on the way down to the party and back. After the party, I got onto my computer. I read a few comics and replied to Nox on Discord. Then I broke to clean myself up with the help of my main nurse. I skipped dinner and nighttime snacks because I was too full between the two large meals earlier. {Smile}

After cleaning myself up, I got back to my computer, and straight into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started to check on my friends who play the game but got sidetracked into talking with friends pretty quickly. I said goodnight to Dennis, who was getting ready to leave. I said hi to Ulty and Jenny's player. I chatted a bit with Divi, too. I also talked with Dr. Faustus, Seb, and the newest member of our villain supergroup. The last three and I teamed up, with me on the ranged version of Olga, my lower-level villain supergroup member. We did two of my story arcs that are really meant for heroes, but we put a more selfish spin on our actions. Then Dr. Faustus and Seb left, saying goodnight. I talked with the new gal a fair while before we both left because it was late. Next, I wrote a bit of this, then switched to making notes in this. I took one break for Cross Stitch World, and a short break for short comics. I ended my evening with the Lord's Prayer, Saint Francis's Prayer, and the motto of the Daughters of the King. {Smile}
