Saturday was Valentine's Day, so, if you celebrate it, Happy Valentine's Day! If you don't, I hope you celebrated it, and maybe took advantage of the candy sales afterwards, as they're available. {Smile}
The night before Saturday, I got to bed a while after two am, but not as bad as sometimes. I still drowsed in the afternoon, while visiting with my cousin, her husband, and the couple who bought her father's house. I was more awake after that, though. {Smile}
Yes, I visited with my cousin on Saturday. She's on a short trip back home. She and her husband came over to pick me up right before lunch. We tried a restaurant that was new to all of us. The food seemed healthy, though my portion was a little small, though not too bad when supplemented with some of my cousin's husband's chips. My cousin and her husband had larger portions, so if I go back, I'll try the kalua pork wraps instead of the salmon open-faced sandwich. Then we went to Keaukaha, where my cousin grew up. We were early, so we drove around until we found two cars in the garage of her parent's former home. We stopped there and visited with the folks who bought the house. It was a nice visit. They were a congenial older couple, I think from Texas. On the way home, we stopped by ACE to pick up plumbing supplies. Then they took me home. My cousin got a picture of us together before she and her husband left. {Smile}
Before they came, I realized I had a puffy eye. We've been trying to treat it with hot compresses. It might be a little better. My nurse checked for medicine, but Safeway didn't have any. We'll see later, if doesn't clear up on its {smile}
Also, I realized that one sink was draining very slowly. I tried our plungers, which made it a little better. Next, I told my main nurse, and asked him to try the drain cleaner, since I didn't trust myself with it when I couldn't find the instructions. It got much worse, I'm sure through no fault of my nurses. It's just one of THOSE clogs. My nurse got supplies while I visited with my cousin. My nurse got the sink draining slowly again. I suggested leaving it alone until I can get a plumber. I don't want to risk making it worse again. Unless it really improves, I'll call the plumber on Tuesday, since I think Monday is a holiday. {smile}
Before my cousin came, I was mainly fussing with the drain, though I read an article or two and watched a couple of videos on the net. I also shared the daily update I pretty much finished the night before, just too late to share right then. After the visit, I went back onto my computer. I watched videos and read articles. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and said hi to Kitten, Dennis, and Pierogies. I joined them for a hunt, but got called to dinner very quickly, so I didn't do much with them. {smile}
After dinner, I went back to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and talked with Dennis while He, Kitten, and Pierogies finished something I couldn't join in the middle of. When they were done, I joined them just in time to say goodnight to Pierogies and Dennis. Then I teamed up with Kitten, who helped me finish the story arc we'd started in the post-apocalyptic setting. We did its sequel, too. Then we did an almost villainous story arc involving stealing a diamond, but nothing worse. Dr. Faustus joined us part way through. We finished, and I said goodnight. I did some in-game auction house, crafting, and storage. Next, I made notes in this, a break to watch some videos because I thought it was earlier than it was. I hate mis-reading clocks. I read Forward Day by Day and said the Lord's Prayer. I got to bed shortly after three, discovering it right when I was getting to bed, so I had no way to speed up. {small smile}
