Thank You

Good afternoon everyone,

Yesterday was mom's funeral, and I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone who came, from family and friends, many of whom I've met for the first time, it was a shining example of just how much my mom was loved. To everyone, I wholeheartedly thank you. 

Again I want to express my thanks to Mr. Theo Stanley, Jr and his staff at Stanley's Memorial Chapel in Camden. I could not imagine anyone doing as good as a job as they did in preparing mom, and making sure everything was conducted with the kindness and compassion they have shown. 

I want to thank the good folks of La Cocina Latin Cuisine in Pennsauken for catering the event as well. I really hope the next time we need their services it would be for a much more happy occasion. 

Next I want to thank you to Rev. Stephen Robbins and everyone at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Camden for a beautiful service and in welcoming my mom when she started going to mass on Sunday mornings.

Also I want to thank my Twitch community: FelKimChi, PandaSweet, Kalenal, FnDanteSavage, Iceman7667, BangBangBang, LvlStrkr and so many others for your kindness and support over the past couple of months. Though we have yet to meet in person, ya'll are the best friends a guy like me could have.

I would go more in the detail of how everything went, but I went through the details on stream, and trying to do a step by step recap is tough. For me, personally I feel getting to connect with a lot of family again was important... knowing that they have my back because... really for the first time I'm alone, is a huge comfort.

Last night's stream itself was saw my cousin Frances make their debut as Mod for the channel, and again, huge thank you to my communities of long time friends for welcoming her into the fold. She already saw what a great bunch ya'll were, and it really made me happy to see how well she just slipped right in like she's been there for years.

We played a lot of Fall Guys last night, teaming up with Felkimchi, and we made it to the final round twice, coming up short in roll off. Also played some Fallout 76, being joined by Iceman as we helped him progress his in-game story.

For the raid we dropped in on GGVexy as they were playing Potion Permit over at twitch.tv/ggvexy

I did not do any writing at all yesterday, I hope to get back into the swing of things shortly. 

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Difficulty Challenge Combo #2, Sway Back Combo, Straight Combo #2 and Difficulty Challenge Combo #3 for 32 minutes.

"What did the zero say to the eight?" "That belt looks good on you."

Song of the Day: Sultans Of Swing by Dire Straits.

For tonight's stream the plan is to play Final Fantasy XIV, we'll mix in side quests with raids.

So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden


Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of character...
