sunday post9

good evening! hmm ... i know i said i was owed SIX HOURS and THREE MINUTES online; i came online @ 5:30pm but have zero idea when uncle wallace and aunty a will appear for dinner, so i'll just minus the time when they arrive. anyways, so far, i've been hard @ work plodding 2732 steps today. righteo, today's events?
-dad poked me awake this morning with fifteen more minutes." i counted the time down, then spent the last few seconds in a silent but fervent prayer to god, asking him to please heal my most beloved grandmother.
-when dad came back into my room, i used the pot :p once and he got me kitted before making me walk out to the gobbling :p table.
-first he forced me to drink one entire mug of water - i did so 'incorrectly' - then breakfast was three weetbix with almost one whole spoonful of honey.
-dad made me walk out to the 4WD. today, he gleefully forced poor em to buckle her seatbelt all day, and he also gave me permission to listen to my car CD once he was driving us to foodcourt.
-dad left me with aunty a and letty while he rocked off upstairs to the cantonese service.
-for worship today, aunty a and letty forced poor em to stand for ALL of worship, i.e. five songs! >, i sang the harmony for one and also clapped along for another.
-speaker today was shane mccarthy, and his sermon topic was about knowing how/when to apologise,
-no communion afterwards. just janice who walked me to the loo, over to wash and dry era, and to the morning tea area.
-i drank a cup of coloured water. thanks to peter pie who brought me over two half wholemeal crackers and a plastic mug of orange cordial. i told him the little kiddies story i was about to tell.
-dad made me walk to the little kiddies room, where a funny thing happened: aunty peggy said, "umm ... uncle calvin's gone home to cook lunch, but he was meant to be playing piano. can you do it?"
-so i had a quick practise before worship started. jenny/ka yee also scampered along to play a tune. sth like twinkle twinkle.
-then i did the story-telling! funniest thing was, there were some kids there that only spoke canto, , but i was telling the story in english! so some aunty roped e-ting to translate! whenever she faltered, i tried to help with my meagre canto skills.
-and the lil kids are very cute! when i reached the end of the story and said "let's pray" all the lil kiddies obediently clasped their hands and bowed theie heads! :)
-i scooted my chair over to the craft table. today, aunty michelle taught us how to make bells! we used ceramic cups, resulting in two breakages. thanks to aunty michelle who helped me with mine, like, tying a knot with the string. then we got lotsa stickers to decorate our cups/bells with! i stuck 'chan' and 'em' on mine, plus other various smileys, stars and animals.
-dad took me once to the bathroom before making me walk all the way back to the 4WD. i was somewhat disappointed coz i wanted to participate in the church luncheon! :(
-dad tootled us to foodcourt, me copping my weekly tirade. ><
-hmph. dad PROMISED me, both last night and this morning, that i WOULDN'T haveta eat lunch @ cafe mi! why, then, did i find myself seated @ that restaurant next to anna?! ><
-dad ordered the asian meal, fish fillet in corn sauce with rice; i got almost half, as well as half his hot milk tea. huh, i thought i was also allowed a pearl drink whenever i stood up for worship! ><
-dad made me walk back to the car and tootled us back home. happy erf got to sit sideways all day. :)
-karen was waiting for us @ home.
-a nice hot shower first - no hairwash today. i had one tinkle before karen flipped the nice hot water off, dried and creamed myself, had another tinkle. karen rekitted me, then i had one last tinkle when she went outside to put the kettle on.
-arvo tea was the second half of my kebab. i also made myself a cuppa, white and two, myofficial cup of the day i could hold 'incorrectly'.
-i finished off my sudoku while karen read her book.
-around 4:45, karen started giving ela a massage; i got painted orange with aqua spots today.
-karen gave me two plastic cups of water and took me to the loo for a stinky unspeakable.
-i went back to the table, read aloud my tales of the otori trilogy and karen continued giving ela a massage until dearest dad came home.
-karen walked me to the computer table just as PIG mum rang. :) dad signed karen off, and i said my thanks and byes. not sure when karen's coming back again ... not thursday, that's trace. maybe next sunday?
-i tootled online, and rang aunty a, telling her dinner was ready. guess she'll be over in twenty minutes, thereabouts.
-dad hit me with the eye goo :P and now i'm listening to seven's news. our dinner guests should arrive shortly - ahh, aunty a's here! i'll try to bbl tonight!
cheers,
em. ^^
