Tuesday Post 143

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1836 steps today (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling fifty-three kcal or 730m XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Grace at Home (1)'. Righteo, events for today?
~Woohoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:35am (remember, during Winter I don't count a great night's sleep unless I wake @ 6am/afterwards, but now, it's getting bright that early, I can claim another great night's sleep so long as the sun's risen! XD) and after one pot :P trip, I spend the ten minutes till 5:45am havinga mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-Afterwards, Daddy bear and I cuddle and snore, me waking up briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he leaves for work around 7:45am. Actually, once dad heads outside, I can hear him and Uncle Alan (our neighbour) having a yak, though not distinctly enough to catch what they were saying.
- Once dearest dad left for work, Daddy bear and I cuddled and resumed our happy snorings together, me waking @ least twice more for the pot :P before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she returned, I swung myself over once more to the pot :P for three tinkles and PIG mum got me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela) before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Horrid PIG mum gleefully forced poor Ela to prepare my breakfast for me, but I didn't really mind, because I was sitting down. What I did mind, however, was all the thoughts of my uselessness that plagued me while she works hard @ picking the Weetbix up. Like I've said before, I'm not really sure if it's the cruel and unfaithful God putting me down or Satan doing the jeering, but either way, I'm mad @ God because He's not stopping Satan from doing it, huh. ><
-Anyways, over breakfast (with yummy thinly sliced banana, but good gracious, PIG mum not only has a 'correct' way to hold cups but a 'correct' way to hold knives too! *sigh*) I continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Before leaving, I went once to the loo and did a stinky unspeakable. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but I also leaned briefly against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to 97.3FM all day today, too. Anyways, while PIG mum drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm twenty-five/fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-Physio today: sat first go, then stood for the entire session and did exercises for Ela, who also pointlessly opened the loo door @ the end, coz I didn't use the loo!
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled us off to the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant for lunch!
-I couldn't decide whether to have the sweet and sour pork with rice or the sweet and sour chicken; I was gonna get PIG mum to choose for me, when Aunty Jenny says, "No problem; I'll just get my husband to cook you both." Awesome! :D However, I must admit to having unrefines tastebuds: I couldn't tell which was pork and which was chicken! XD
-Afterwards, PIG mum drove us home, and flew out to save her clothes from the impending storm.
-That done, she immediately forced poor Elf on a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch, before she gleefully FORCED :( poor Em to plod fifteen minutes on the bloody treadmill for her, while the raging storm exploded around us and PIG mum loudly wailed her fears whenever a peal sounded. XD
-Finally, the storm gone and me finished plodding, I plopped online. Two hours won't be up until 4:05pm, so I hope PIG mum comes downstairs and opens the door for Carol Lockwood soon.
-We're hitting Toastmasters together tonight; it's our club competition tonight! I'm one of two timekeepers; the only sad thing will be that I won't be able to take any notes.
-Even better, PIG mum says I can buy a Happy Meal back for dinner afterwards!
-Toms: my second, mid-morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. ><
-Aunty Mecky will come mind me for three hours; dunno what PIG mum's doing yet.
-Carol will come supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-And best of all, it's ice cream night toms night! :D Like I say every week, a little's better than none @ all!
-Anyways, hopefully bbl tonight, so I can read Joni's devotional, but if not, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
