Sunday Post 148b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2946. Lol, if I can return for another post tonight, I'm sure I'll have passed three grand; D2 proudly reports that 2946 steps also equals seventy-three kcal or 1.23km XD Anyways, continuing today's events?
-When Pole and Ky (I met her @ church this morning, her parents are Canto but she's born in the UK; she's living with Julz ATM and works as a dentist in Windsor) hadn't arrived by 2:45pm, I walked myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-When Pole, Julz and Ky announced their arrival, again, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let them in, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Julz brought vodka chocolate mudslides! I drank 1.5 bottles (Julz gave me half of hers) and nature immediately called twice! ut thanks to Pole who walked behind me to the loo both times, where I managed fine by myself.
-We watched Despicable Me! Gosh, I love that movie. XD
lz went outside to tour PIG mum's and dearest dad's vegie patch, while Ky and I just yakked.
-Before they left, Pole walked behind me to the loo once more, where again I managed fine by myself.
-Aunty A's coming over for her birthday celebrations tonight; Anna and Uncle Slam are coming over after dinner too! So depending on when PIG mum tumbles down from pigland and demands that I shower, I may/may not return online.
-Toms: 10:30am UQ physio session with Eric.
-PIG mum says we can share a meal @ Woka Woka tomz - argh, PIG mum's demanding I shower now, so just noting that I'm still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES online!!!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 148

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2486 steps today (which D2 pROUDLY REPORTS AS ALSO EQUALING SIXTY KCAL OR 1.04KM xdXD - sorry, shrieking! ><"and secondly, TWFT topic's 'I Am Not Ashamed (1)'; thirdly, the spam count for the weekend's thirteen but fourthly and most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and - ONE HOUR and TWENTY-THREE MINUTES online after Pole leaves!!!! But just noting down that I only had church today, definitely nothing special. Toms I've got UQ physio @ 10:30am and PIG mum says we can share Lunch @ Woka Woka before I get a massage from Lei shifu. Oh, and it's Carol coming to supervise my shower toms arvo.Almost forgot! Aunty A's coming over for dinner tonight to celebrate her birthday before she leaves for Hong Kong toms; Uncle Slam and Anna will also pop over tonight. Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 148c

A third good evening, only it's way too bright outside to say 'good evening' yet. :P Anyways, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1579, remembering that like 656 of those steps were plodded attending small group last night. D2's new report: 1579 steps also equals twenty-nine kcal or 630m. XD Righteo, continuing today's events?
-Alas, the parents came over and chucked a COMPLETE COW @ me about my sitting posture! >< Dad lost his temper and flicked off the computer, then both parents gleefully forced me on stupid posture exercises until Annette arrived.
-So a nice warm shower for me - I washed and rinsed my hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mosatly dried myself (Annette helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (Annette helped only with my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (Annette helped only with Elf's AFO) and my shoelaces. Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, also softly, slowly but most hatefully singing about 22% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
-Afterwards, Annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my half an arvo toastie and my yummy mug of rice green tea, the last one for today that I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Annette sat and massaged Ela for about thirty-five minutes. She lemme choose the colours today, so I chose maroon with gold spots, just to spite her, coz she's a smelly New South Welshwoman. XD PIG mum came downstairs and they yapped for awhile; I didn't listen coz I was too busy enjoying my book.
-Before leaving, Annette took me once more to the loo. She's having some kinda pork mince tonight, and will be back on Tuesday afternoon from 4pm till 6pm.
-Me ... I'm facing a lonely prospect by myself now, coz Aunty A's not coming over for dinner ... oh! Must go find her a birthday card! Fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner tonight, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 148b

Heylo again and good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1188 (remembering that like 656 of those steps were plodded last night @ Pole's; D2 proudly reports that 1188 steps also equals twenty kcal or 470m XD and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Do Good' but thirdly and most importantly, I'm still owed NINETEEN MINUTES MINUTES online after Annette leaves @ 6pm!!! Anyways, continuing with today's events?
-At midday, Rhi took me again to the loo, where I did another stinky unspeakable.
-Back outside, Rhi made me one mug of Milo (my third to hold 'incorrectly' then I rang both Aunty Nga and Aunty Lai. I also wolfed down the bowl of yummy fried rice that Rhi cooked for me
-Before she left, Rhi took me once moreto the loo. While I was inside, Aunty Winnie and Aunty Ming came to teach me translation.
-First, I revised all the vocab I'd learnt earlier.
-Then I just practised translating between English and Canto the conversations that Aunty Winnie and Aunty Ming were having.
-Before they left, Aunty Winnie walked behind me to the loo once.
-Annette's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm, but Aunty A won't come over for dinner coz she's crook. >< Hopefully she can come over toms night and we can have an early birthday celebration for her, coz she's returning to Hong Kong on the day of her birthday! PIG mum says I can go print her out an e-card; guess I'll go get that done now.
-*sigh* It's honestly terribly hard to endure when your mother keeps coming over and nagging @ you about your posture, and threatening to cut off your internet time if you don't comply ...
-Toms: again, just church, nothing special. Pole will come visit me in the arvo and I'm hoping we can have some drinks @ Sakuraya because considering the weather we're having today, I highly doubt the sun will come back out toms for me to go and enjoy some shaved ice! Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 170b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2636, which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling sixty-eight kcal or 1.09km. XD Righteo, events for today?
-Woohoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes until 6:15am having 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:50am.
-More happy snorings for Daddy bear and I, plus one/two more pot :P trips, before PIG mum comes and pokes me with "fifteen more minutes." When she comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles and PIG mum gets me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was three yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, one full mug of water and all my usual drugs :P. While PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and tootrled me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we started today listening to 4KQ, because PIG mum wanted to listen to the news. As for me, I spent most of this trip with both eyes closed and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Opening the eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five. Actually, I was astounded that I still recalled the lyrics to some of the 4KQ songs we heard! Dunno why PIG mum didn't switch back to the CD once the news was over, but yeah, I was amazed I could like sing along to some of the songs I heard. Well, fair enough, the cruel and unfaithful God's only destroyed my short-term memory; looks like my long term memory's perfectly intact. XD
-At UQ, PIG mum took me twice to the loo (don't ask me, nature suddenly called again) before kindly leaving me with that Who gossip mag from August 2013 and returning downstairs to pay Shyla.
-Eric came for me with a walkbelt, held Ela and walked me into the gym. Physio today: six laps walking along hallway, scrunching work for Ela, about fifty sit-to-stands and twenty minutes on the ICare machine.  And afterwards, I really did get a little mini cheesecake from Kat, complete with peaches on top! I silently wondered why it tasted slightly bland, though, but Kat snickered, "It doesn't contain any sugar." XD
-Before we left, PIG mum changed me; obviously, I was soaked!
-While PIG mum tootled us off to Warrigal Square, Era helped Ela stretch for fifteen minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm 100 times, holding each for a count of five.
-At the Sushi Train, I enjoyed my usual regular Udon D (somehow I managed to persuade PIG mum to lemme have it; originally she was like, "But you already had KFC yesterday!" while PIG mum had some other udon that came with 'yuu darn' (say that in Canto) and sweet inari peel! We traded~
-Afterwards, PIG mum drove me to see Aunty Anna for my 'high-class style mushroom cut'. XD
-One more loo trip for me, then PIG mum tootled us home and I plopped online.
-Aunty Lucia rang and asked to come @ 3pm instead of 4pm today, because tonight, they're going to some church and seeing some guy get ordained as a priest!
-So when she arrived, I went into the bathroom for my nice hot shower - I washed my hair today, but thanks to Aunty Lucia who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried and had another tinkle. While Aunty Lucia spread aloe vera over me, constantly yakking, I had another tinkle. Finally, when she rekitted me, I had one last tinkle when she was washing my glasses for me.
-Aunty Lucia Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where arvo tea was one yummy inari I'd selected over lunch @ The Sushi Train, plus one yummy mug of rice green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Before Aunty Lucia left, she took me once more to the loo.
-Actually, I've just been once more slowly and safely myself, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Off to Pole's house for small group tonight! Hope I see Matthew; did you know, he was such a good boy when PIG mum and I were having lunch @ The Sushi Train, he came and said hi to me! I wanted to say bye to him when we left, but PIG mum wouldn't lemme, saying they were ordering @ that time.  Lol, he prolly reckons I'm super-rude. XD
-Rhi's coming @ 10am toms, then Annette @ 4pm, to supervise my shower. Hmm, I wonder if I can persuade her to leave me the other inari for arvo tea?
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend! I'm off for my Naruto fix, now. XD
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 170

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2335 steps today (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling fifty-seven kcal or 970m XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'God of the Top and of the Bottom' and thirdly, the spam countfor the week's twenty-three but fourthly and most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTY-FOUR MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves around 4pm!!! But just noting down that I had UQ physio today, lunch @ the Sushi Train and went to Aunty Anna's place for a haircut, Aunty Lucia will come supervise my shower soon then tonight I'm ff to Pole's for small group; toms, expect a pissy plodding total from me coz I'm not going out; Ehi comes to mind me from 10am till 1pm before Annette comes to supervise my shower @ 4pm. Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 170d

One definite final good evening! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4144 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "I'm Joy-Happy." Anyways, PIG mum's booting me offline the moment she comes out from the bathroom, and coz I know she showers almoster than the speed of light :P lemme just say that after dinner tonight, the parents and I went to IKEA! The aim was to find a new computer light (the old one's finally karked it) but we also shared nuggets, chips, tea 9PIG mum and I) and coffee! Unfortunately, 'twas a long walk; lol, after a loo trip, PIG mum and I were going back down the elevator when a sales lady, seeing that I was disabled, gave us directions directly to the exit; once the lift doors closed, I asked PIG mum, "I hope you got those instructions, coz I missed them," only she replied, "Sorry, I missed them too!" so 'twas a long, convuluted walk back to the car, meaning I got back there drenched with sweat and Elf wailing a sore ankle. :o(
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with Eric; cripes, I hope Katrana won't order me on that bloody Beast again! >< Actually, I thought she said she'd make me a cheesecake??
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm, then I'm off to Pole's for smmall group tonight! I've already asked, and Pole's already said she can gimme a lift back home afterwards. :o) Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 170c

Whoops, I lied! After I finished Thursday Post 170b, PIG mum booted me offline and gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to bring in all the day's clothes for her. Argh, doesn't she have any concept whatsoever how hard it is for me to just simply STAND and do things?! And to make matters worse, she gleefully forced poor Ela to hold every item of clothing then place into the clothes basket! Ai ... anyways, back inside, I took myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for two tinkles then back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. So, my potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1572. Hmm ... it's almost 6pm; wonder if nine's news will work tonight? Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. Z^^

Thursday Post 170b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for today now stands @ 1211; D2's new report: 1211 steps also equals ... okay, some calculation has been screwed up; D2 will try his hardest to return toms. XD Anyways, continuing today's events?
-Breakfast was two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, one full mug of water and all my usual drugs. :P While PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I went once more to the loo before Roxana arrived for two tinkles, this time leaning briefly against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-When Roxana arrived, we hit Garbo together!
-Luckily, there was a car space waiting for us underground when we arrived. I held Roxana's hand gently and walked well up into the library with her, grabbed Orson Scott Card's 'Shadow Puppets' then bagged a sofa and read happily away. Roxana went quickly to the Post Office then rejoined me.
-Lol, we were both so happily engrossed in our respective books that we forgot to leave! Suddenly, just before 11am, I noticed the time, and said, "Eep, Roxana, please bring me my manual wheelchair; it's almost 11am!"
-In Sparkless 2, Roxana and I first visited Breadtop, where I again grabbed the biggest bun available, the ham and cheese burger.
-next, we went downstairs to Dick Smiths, where I updated on an Ipad while Roxana sat outside somewhere.
-Leaving to visit JayJays, I stopped @ some side stall that was handing out free coffee samples! The one I tried was interesting, but I was like, "Ugh, it needs sugar." The lady laughed and replied, "sorry, I forget! Here, lemme add some for you." Two teaspoonfuls of sugar later and a quick stir, ahh. Caramel coffee doesn't taste half bad! ;)
-After visiting JayJays, there was enough time to visit the teddies @ Kmart, but unfortunately not enough time to visit the Jstore. Ah well, perhaps next fortnight.
-Before meeting Anna @ the upstairs food court, I actually ducked inside QBD for a quick browse.
-At foodcourt, outside KFC, I just started to message Anna on Facebook and tell her that I'd arrived, when I heard Roxana greeting her!
-I stuck with my usual, the two piece box with a kookies and kream krusher. Anna had curry chicken from Hanaichi (which she SMOTHERED with curry powder!) and Roxana had two sushi rolls, one prawn, the other crab.
-We just all yakked away. Anna told me how her mum and Kathleen have gone to Lord Howe Island (go east from Sydney) for a short holiday!) She also said she worked @ some post office located between Ipswich and the Gold Coast (Ormeau?)
-Afterwards, Roxana and I went to buy pears. First we checked out the price of pears from Fruits of Life (the fruit shop directly outside Woolies), then we went inside to check the price of pears inside Woolies. Fing pears from Woolies 2b more expensive, we went back outside, where I asked Roxana please to teach me how to find a good pear. "See, squeeze here," she instructed, passing me the pear that she was holding. "It's too soft; can you feel that?" I most certainly did: when I took the pear from her, I squeezed too hard and the skin burst! I quickly put it back down, patted and apologised to it. XD Roxana laughed and chose three ripe ones.
-By then, 'twas home time. Roxana validated our parking ticket, then she tootled us home. I turned off the alarm then went into the bathroom.
-So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Roxana who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. I remembered to avoid my dermatitis patch, but 'twas such a relief being able to scrub everywhere twenty-five times (see? I'm twenty-six now, but I've stopped @ twenty-five!). I'm finally clean~
-I had one tinkle before Roxana flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, had another tinkle, then got creamed. Roxana rekitted me, and I had one last tinkle when she was repinning D2 onto my pants for me.
-Roxana and I held hands and I walked back out to the computer table with her, where she told me that dad had rung before my shower, asking me to ring him back please. So I called dad; turns out he just wanted to check that I was still alive. XD
-Before Roxana left, she took me once more to the loo. She'll be back next fortnight to take me to Garbo again! And turns out she knows Annette - they attend the same church together! Must remember to only write her a thank-you card come Christmas, like with Annette and Aunty Mecky.
-After she left, nature suddenly called, and so I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Lol, when PIG mum arrived home, turns out she'd forgotten her keys! Meaning again, 'twas me who walked slowly and safely to the front door and welcomed her back in, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So while PIG mum had lunch; I enjoyed half my ham and cheese burger for lunch, my official cup for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After lunch, I walked myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with Eric. Gosh, I hope they won't stick me on that beastly machine again! :S Well, if Kat wants to, first I'll need that promise from her that horrid PIG mum won't gleefully FORCE :( me to plod on that bloody treadmill for her @ night. Actually, didn't she mention sth about cheesecake ...?
-Fingers crossed I can have some udon for lunch @ the Sushi Train! I didn't get any for Monday, from memory ...?
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Pole's for small group toms night!
-Doubt I'll bbl tonight, coz I've already been online for the PISSY two hours that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so just wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 170

~Woohoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:30am, and after one :P pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes until 6:40am having 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:50am.
-Almost immediately dearest dad left for work, PIG mum was poking me with "fifteen more minutes." When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles and PIG mum got me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-bbl!

D2's final, final report for Wednesday: 3770 steps also equals sth very slightly over 2.85km or sth very slightly over eighty-seven kcal. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight, just briefly?
-Tonight, PIG mum gleefully forced all four limbs on ages of stupid ball exercises, gleefully FORCED :( me on four laps of side walking, gleefully FORCED :( poor Em to plod fifteen/twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill for her and gleefully forced poor Elf to endure a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch. Dinner was yummy (pork, potatoes, carrots and yummy rice) and afterwards, I read until PIG mum ordered me to go play Lumosity.

Good evening and Heylo from my smartphone! Not sure how to work out my new plodding total from here, so just noting down that PIG mum gleefully forced all four limbs on lotsa stupid ball exercises for her, then gleefully FORCED:( me to plod four laps side walking for her. Actually, I've just finished playing Lumosity for mother, and can finally note down my final, final plodding total for Wednesday: 3770, remembering that like 370 of them were plodded last night @ Toastmasters. D2's final, final report for tonight: 3770 steps also equals something very slightly over eighty-four kcal or sth very slightly over 2.17km. Continuing with tonight's final events:
-PIG mum gleefully forced mostly poor Ela on 25+ minutes of stupid exercises.
-Next followed a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch for poor Elf.

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 170b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Wednesday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2135, remembering that like 470 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters. D2's new report: 2135 steps also equals sth very slightly over forty-one kcal or sth very slightly over 1.49km. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Wednesday?
-PIG mum hadn't gone upstairs yet when Carol announced her arrival @ 3:57pm; she let Carol in, then spent about ten minutes gabbing @ her before she sent me into the bathroom for my shower.
-So a nice warm shower - but still very limited - for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped only with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles before Carol helped me with my shoes and laces. I went over to wash and dry Era, before Cqrol Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to get the sushi roll PIG mum had kindly bought me, Forced me to prepare my own mug of yummy rice green tea (my third and last for today to hold 'incorrectly') then Forced me to walk back to the gobbling :P table.
-Alas, horrid PIG mum wouldn't gimme any soya sauce to enjoy my sushi roll with. Never mind, I've learnt 2b content despite all the restrictions that she so gleefully imposes on me ... *sigh*
-After cleaning the bathroom, Carol massaged Ela for about forty minutes, while I happily read The Seven Greatest Warriors, reaching page 100 @ 5:35pm.
-Before leaving, Carol took me once more to the loo for three tinkles. She's back Monday, and will have some microwaved meal for lunch.
-Me: I'll stay online for ten more minutes (to reach the PISSY two hours of net time that horrid PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to), then I'll haveta let her gleefully force me on goodness knows how long of stupid exercises for her. ><
-Toms: Roxana's taking me out to Garbo toms morning and I'm meeting up with Anna for lunch @ midday!
-Will continue try asking dad to take PIG mum and I out for lunch toms. Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 170

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1848 steps today (remembering that like 470 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters; D2 proudly reports that 1848 steps also equals thirty-six kcal or 1.38km XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'The Lord Told Me...' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Your Storm Shelter (3)' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTES after Carol leaves @ 6pm!!!! Righteo, let's start with yesterday's events first!
-When Carol arrived precisely @ 4pm, I went into the bathroom for my nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carol who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, Carol and I hold hands and we walk out to the gobbling :P table together. Arvo tea's the yummy other half of the lunch I'd had earlier that day plus one mug of yummy rice green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol very lightly massages Ela for about forty minutes, painting her sth like light green with brown spots, before PIG mum comes downstairs from pigland around 5:30pm, hits me with some eye goo and sends me packing off to Toastmasters.
-We make good time there, arriving shortly before Seven's 6pm news starts.
-Up @ Q block, Carol takes me once to the loo, then we wait outside for security to come open the door for us.
-Last night's theme was Romania, chosen by our Toastmaster Monica, who comes from Romania! Chi gave me a table topic asking for my opinion about vampires; I told everyone how my absurdly sentimental mother was bored outta her brains during Twilight! XD
-We ended slightly late last night, in my hurry to leave, I forgot to bid Q601, our room for Toastmasters ever since I started attending, farewell! Yup, next year, we're relocating to QUT somewhere else.
-After taking me once more to the loo, Carol tootled me off to Warrigal Square Maccas for my Happy Meal and orange juice. Yup, horrid PIG mum wouldn't lemme enjoy a shake. *sigh* Don't worry, I've learnt to be content with all the restrictions that PIG mum so gleefully places on me ...
-I won't be seeing Carol again until next Saturday. Back home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz.
-Today: woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:25am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:35am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:50am.
-Oddly enough, for some reason I didn't fall back asleep after dad left, just used the pot :P once more before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes," around 9am. When she came back, I used the pot :P for two more tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable.
-PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water, which I drained holding 'incorrectly' while PIG mum was upstairs changing. I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Before leaving, I went and did my 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 out to the 4WD.
-Off she tootled me to see Vincent the bloody physio for another torture session. Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we also listened to Jacky Cheung all day, too. While she drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-Physio today: sat first go, then stood entire session and practised holding a ball in between both hands and walking without Ela's elbow straightening. Ela also opened door and held onto rail to finish.
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled me home, where Aunty Mecky had just arrived herself~
-Inside, I continued reading the Seven Greatest Warriors, while Aunty Mecky cut a yummy pear for me and PIG mum went out to Garbo for some shopping.
-I rang dearest dad, then lunch was lotsa lettuce from PIG mum's vegie patch plus six yummy fried dumplings. Thanks to Aunty Mecky who poured a drop of soya sauce for me to enjoy them with before I even asked her~ Also, the mug of yummy chocolate nesquik was my second for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After lunch, I went once to the loo for four tinkles before Aunty Mecky did the rubbing for Ela for exactly twenty minutes while I continued reading my book. After giving herself the next forty minutes off to wash the dishes and watch television, Aunty Mecky returned (after I'd asked her to) around 2pm and rubbed Ela for ten more minutes.
-After PIG mum came home, I went to the loo once more then plopped online.
-And it's ice cream night tonight! Like I keep saying, a very little's better than none @ all!
-Hey, Carol should come to supervise my shower soon, so fingers crossed I can bbl, else toms:
-Roxana's taking me out for my fortnightly Garbo trip! :D And Anna's meeting me for lunch~
-Will try again to persuade dad to take us out for dinner.
-Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 147b

Heylo again and good afternoon! Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2211, but I'll definitely be owed LOTSA time after Toastmasters, coz I seriously doubt that PIG mum'll allow me to stay online till 5:40pm before I head off for my shower! Anyways, 2211 steps also eq Carol Lockwood should arrive in just over five minutes; lemme just note down that I saw Natalie from 4EB this morning, then had lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant (where I learnt the boss chef dude's name was Steven) then I saw Vincent the bloody physio for a torture session. Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm then taking me out to Toastmasters; fingers crossed I can get some dinner from Maccas before getting home! Toms I've got another torture session with Vincent the bloody physio before Aunty Mecky comes to mind me for three hours (PIG mum hasn't decided what she's gonna do yet). Carol will come supervise my shower @ 4pm, and best of all, it's ice cream night toms night! Like I keep saying every week, a very little's better than none @ all! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms, and just noting down that I'm still owedONE HOUR and THIRTY MINUTES online after I get home from Toastmasters tonight!!! Argh, the list continually gets longer ... ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S.D2's new report for Tuesday: 2211 steps also equals fifty-nine kcal or 910m. XD

Monday Post 147c

Good evening, and one definite final greeting for Monday! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3441 (D2's final, final report for tonight: 3441 steps also equals sth very slightly over eighty-eight kcal or sth very slightly over 1.38km XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's A Sacrifice Of Praise'. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-Mr. Hall arrived! When he announces his arrival, I walk myself slowly and safely to the door and welcome him in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. We sat and chatted until dinnertime. I use the loo once more before joining them @ the gobbling :P table.
-Entree was vegetables fresh from PIG mum's and dearest dad's vegie garden and half a bread roll with a minute dab of butter; mains were LING fish (me: BAHAHAHA!! XD) and some other fish. I just drank water, because we were outta juice, both parents and Mr. Hall drank red wine.
-We all just yakked the night away; Mr. Hall says he'll prolly switch to working part-time next year~
-I passed him his card and present, and learnt a new thing in return: Mr. Hall ABHORS cats! XD
-Suddenly the lights go out, and dad appears with candles and cake! We sing Mr. Hall the happy birthday song and pose for photos, before tucking into the tiramisu cake, which tastes surprisingly good!
-Mr. Hall leaves @ around 9:30pm. We all walk him out, then I return online.
-Toms: late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. ><
-Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant!
-Don't I have that interview thing with the lady from the radio station? Will ask PIG mum; she'll remember.
-Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower and taking me out to Toastmasters toms night! Fingers crossed I can get some dinner from Maccas @ Warrigal Square afterwards! (A Happy Meal's better than nothing!)
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 147b

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's probable final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2992 (lol, I'm sure I'll pass three grand some day XD) ; D2'S potential final, final plodding total for Monday: 2992 steps also equals something very slightly over seventy-seven kcal or sth very slightly over 1.23km. XD Joni's devotion hasn't arrived yet, but because Mr. Hall just rang about fifteen minutes ago and said he was coming over straight from school, I'm still owed THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES online after he leaves!!! Cripes, I hope he'll leave super-early tonight ... anyways, just quickly, continuing today's events?
-When Carol arrived about three minutes before 4pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and welcomed her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice hot but very limited shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one t6inkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped only with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped only with Elf's AFO. Then I went over to the loo, and after asking Carol please for one mug of water - my first for today to hold 'incorrectly' - I did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning against the side rail and asking Percy the saint/angel, please to help me to have a good night tonight.
-After washing and drying Era, Carol Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to prepare my arvo tea, my lunch leftovers and one mug of yummy rice green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol cleaned the bathroom, then came back to massage Ela for about thirty-five minutes, although she couldn't find the paintbrush
-Ok, Mr. Hall should be here soon, so lemme just say I did a stinky unspeakable after my shower, had my lunch leftovers for arvo tea and Carol massaged Ela for about thirty-five minutes. Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2717 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling seventy kcal or 1.13km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Your Storm Shelter (1)' but thirdly and most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!!! But she'll arrive in like thirty minutes, so just lemme note down that:
-today, @ UQ physio with Eric, I did: two laps walking along hallway, ten/fifteen minutes on tilt table, fifty sit-to-stands, some work for Ela and four more laps walking along hallway to end.
-We had lunch @ Dong Fong/Sunnybank Oriental; PIG mum had the A meal, some kinda green curry with rice, while I had the Peking pork spare ribs with rice and drank her cold milk tea.
-PIG mum went to buy Mr. Hall's cheesecake (she bought a tiramisu one), drove home to put it back into the fridge, then tootled me off to see Lei shifu for a comfy (if ouchy!) massage.
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm; think I'll need to do a stinky unspeakable afterwards.
-And Mr. Hall's coming over @ 7pm to celebrate his birthday with us!
-Toms: late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. ><
-Fingers crossed I can get some yummy lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant afterwards!
-Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm then taking me to Toastmasters! Fingers crossed I can get some dinner from Maccas before getting home~
-Righteo, hopefully bbl @ 6pm, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Sunday Post 147c

Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3301 (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling thirty-three kcal or 1.38km XD and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's ... hey, it's 7pm but it still hasn't arrived yet? Dunno ... anyways, continuing today's events?
-We shared my favourite fish fillet with sweet corn sauce in rice, the Asian set lunch for today. I drank a cold milk tea, while PIG mum had something like a rasberry Fanta? uncle Colbert, Aunty Winnie and Uncle NSW joined us for lunch; I took the opportunity to show Aunty Winnie that I had really completed @ least ninety in that 4Pics1Word game. XD
-BTW, Joni's devotional topic's A Sacrifice of Thanks'.
-After I'd finished lunch, PIG mum took me once to the loo, before we (Kwany, Mel Mel, PIG mum and I) went upstairs to Kwany's car. Thanks to PIG mum who helped me with my seatbelt, and Kwany tootled us off to visit Jono, Dora and baby Isabella!
-While Kwany drove us to where they lived (in Salisbury somewhere), a MASSIVE storm was EXPLODING! Luckily, Kwany's car came equipped with an umbrella, so Mel Mel walked behind me into the Try residence!
-We sat down, Jono poured us water and we waited for Dora and baby Isabella to appear. When they arrived, we gave them our gifts (card and gift voucher from somewhere from me, a baby jumpsuit for Mel Mel and Kwany) and said our congratulations!
-Kwany and Mel Mel asked to hold baby Isabella; I asked Dora would I be able to, also. Dora said yes, but got Mel Mel to move me over to the sofa and asked Jono (who's one year younger than me and currently on some plastic surgery rotation shift @ the hospital) to get her the pillow/cushion she used to feed baby Isabella with), then she placed baby Isabella on my lap and taught me how to support her neck! She's very fragile still, only being ten days old! The adorable thing was, just as Dora was placing her onto my lap, baby Isabella stretched, catching me in the head/face with her fists! But don't worry; ten day-old babies aren't very strong yet; she didn't knock me out. XD
-While I cradled her, Jono fed us all caramel Tim Tams and cherries! I had two each~
-When more visitors arrived @ 4pm, Mel Mel walked behind me once to the loo, where I managed fine by myself.
-Back outside, Mel Mel and Kwany decided 'twas time to leave, and before going out, I went over to bid baby Isabella goodbye. Her eyes were finally open!
-Kwany tootled me back home, and I plopped online until PIG mum demanded 'twas time I showered. It's still a very limited shower for me, and obviously, I washed and rinsed my own hair today, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum helped with NOTHING bar Elf's AFO. And somehow, that gives her the right to say that she 'showered' me? Lol, I don't understand Chinese culture. XD
-Back online, I continued blogging until the parents called dinner. Before joining them, I took myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa home-grown vegies (I presume; PIG mum for whatever reason that so pleased her refused to tell me; it was so chewy!) and some leftover pork mince from the dumplings I made yesterday. For some reason, dad decided to chuck another cow @ me, I've learnt it's best to remain silent and let him rant and rave rather than responding.
-Afterwards, I read The Chosen for @ least five more minutes, before I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back online.
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl with my final, final plodding total for Sunday, final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 147b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3120, which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling sixty-eight kcal or 1.31km. XD Righteo, continuing today's events?
-PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water that I drained holding 'incorrectly' while both parents were upstairs changing. I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the angel/saint, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
PIG mum left for her and CPR training, and dad told me to go to the car first; he'd come and drive us to church once he finished doing whatever he was out doing on the deck, so I carefully made my way outside hugging the wall. But where was the 4WD? Whoops, I realised that PIG mum had driven it away to attend her CPR training! XD So, leaning against the door, I called for dad to please come open the Camry door so I could get in. For some reason, he took his time, even ordering me TWICE to return inside and wash my hands! But finally, we left, and I used that short trip to finish my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-At church, I went to the loo once then joined Aunty Katherine in the church library.
-Lol, the first DVD she picked for us to watch was a Mandarin one with Canto subtitles! "Sorry, can you please pick another one?" I asked Aunty Katherine, laughing. (I speak minimal Mandarin and read minimal Cantonese! XD)
-She picked another one, about some young lady born with epilepsy and who can't use her hands; instead, she uses her left foot for writing, eating, inserting CDs, etc.!
-When dad came to pick me up, I went once to the loo, grabbed two quarter-triangles of tuna sandwich then sat down. Huge thanks to Karen who came over and brought me this little coconut tart! "They're delicious!" she recommended, munching away. I immediately crammed the whole little thing into my mouth, lest dad see and have a fit. XDA
-Time for English service, I hiked upstairs. Frances and Juliana were here today!
-Phew, I got to stay seated for worship today. Juliana stayed seated too. I sang everything, plus the harmony for one song, but like every other week, meant absolutely nothing.
-After communion, Pastor Chris delivered part three of some sermon I don't remember the first two parts of? Don't ask me ...
-When service was over, I bid Joey farewell and wished her a safe trip back to Hong Kong. She's leaving very early Thursday morning, and says she'll bring me back a toy capsule (say 'lul darn' in Canto)!
-PIG mum returned from her CPR training, took me once to the loo, then tootled me off to Plaza for lunch. Thankfully, there was a car park waiting upstairs for us~
-We had Cafe Mi! I was hoping that without dad, PIG mum would lemme eat one myself, but I should've known better.
-Dinnertime! Fingers crossed I can bbl, coz I'm still owed FIFTY MINUTES online!!!! ><
Cheers,
Em. ZZZZZZZZ^^

Sunday Post 147

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3006 steps today (ha, just past three grand; D2 proudly reports that 3006 also equals sixty-seven kcal or 1.25km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'What Does God Want You To Do?' and thirdly, the spam count for the weekend's five but  fourthly and most importantly, I'll definitely be owed some time online later, because I didn't get home and onto the computer until 4:25pm!!! Anyways, events for today?
-I used the pot :P once last night and once around 6:05am this morning. Then I spent the ten minutes until 6:15am having a 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 cuddled and snored until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles, and PIG mum got me kitted.
-Alas, I'm being booted offline now. >< Fingers crossed I can bbl, because I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-SEVEN MINUTES online!!!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 147c

Good evening, and one definite final good evening for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2745, remembering that like 720 of those steps were plodded @ Ray's place last night and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'An Unfolding Adventure'. Anyways, I just wanted to note down that Aunty A rang, said she was sick and therefore couldn't come for dinner tonight, I went and made dumplings with PIG mum, and when dearest dad was cooking them for our dinner, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to plod twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill for her. Toms we're just attending church, definitely nothing special, but Kwany (and presumably Mel Mel will be taking me to visit Dora and little baby Isabella! Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Heylo again, and probably one final greeting for Saturday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1605, remembering that like 721 of those steps were plodded last night @ Ray's place. D2's final, final report for Saturday: 1605 steps also equals twenty-nine kcal or 650m. XD Righteo, probable final, final events for Tuesday?
-When Carol announced her arrival precisely @ 4pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and welcomed her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Actually, my hair got washed twice, coz after it'd been washed, Carol suddenly realised, "whoops, we forget to use the special shampoo!" XD
-Hmm ... PIG mum's demanding that I come over and help her make dumplings now, so hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,

Saturday Post 147

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1299 steps today (remembering that like 731 of those steps were plodded last night @ Ray's place; D2 proudly reports that 1299 steps also equals twenty-six kcal or 530m XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'The Hunt' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Pray From Your Heart'. Righteo, let's start with last night's events first!
~PIG mum tootled me off to Ray's place for dinner. Last night, we met upstairs round the back, instead of inside. Me liked, coz there were handrails both ways!
-Ray dragged over an armchair for me (complete, blessed safety ^^) and everyone else arrived. Actually, Huldah left for worship rehearsal, but said she'd come back later.
-Ray bought/made pizza, while Jairom just bought KFC. XD
-After Ray's mum snapped a photo for us, everyone tucked in! I had: two slices of pizza, two chicken wings, one chicken drumstick, one small serving of PIG mum's yummy ham, eggs and onion, some nachos (it's confirmed: I seriously dislike salsa!), two slices of KFC (one wing and one breat, both original) and several chips.
-There was even dessert! Pole had baked a cheesecake, and Lana had baked these cake pops things, which were basically little round cakes covered with a thin ball of chocolate! One was rainbow coloured; Lana said she had baked SIX different cakes to make them! I also enjoyed a slice of birthday cake; Ray's housemates were having a birthday gathering while we were having a small group dinner!
-Pole drove me home around 9:45pm; repeat the usual nightly events, zzz.
-Today: woo hoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:50am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss PIG mumgoodbye and use the pot :P once more when she left for work around 7:30am.
-Spending another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me have a good day today, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking to use the pot :P twice more before Rhi arrived ... @ 10:15am?
-Turns out she'd been stuck in traffic along the Kessels/Mains road intersection, where they were doing roadworks.
-So I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles, Rhi got me kitted, then Forced me to walk over to the bathroom, where I brushed my teeth. Thanks to Rhi who'd squirted out some toothpaste for me; Ela enjoyed her once-a-week reprieve.
-After drinking one mug of water holding the mug 'incorrectly', I went and did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-After washing and drying Era, Rhi Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, where I made myself a ham and egg sandwich for breakfast. Thanks to Rhi who passed me one slice of cheese. My once weekly mug of white tea, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, was the second fortoday that I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-Rhi told me that her poor dad's suffering from a melanoma on his neck! >< The army's paying for the treatment, though, coz he suffered it while working for the Army.
-At 11:30am, Aunty Katherine and Aunty ... Lisa? came and taught me translation.
-At midday, Rhi took me again to the loo, then made me one mug of warm Milo, sweetened with one teaspoonful of sugar, my third mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After the two aunties left, I rang Aunty Nga (after trying unsuccessfully to reach Aunty Lai) and yakked with her for awhile. Lol, she's stressed because Mickey only scored eighty-odd percent for some of his exams! Lol, I would've been overjoyed if I scored eighty-odd percent for some of the law exams I once sat! XD
-Before Rhi left, she took me once more to the loo. Lucky thing, she's going home for a massage now!
-Lunch was almost one bowl of Rhi's yummy fried rice (although Tess put more oyster sauce than Rhi ever did! XD) and one mug of jasmine green tea, my third mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-And I finally reached Aunty A; turns out she was @ the hospital working this morning.
-Toms: just church, nothing special.
-We'll prolly have lunch @ Plaza afterwards, coz Kwany's coming to pick me up at 2pm from there and taking me to meet Dora and her little baby!
-Anyways, hopefully bbl once more after Carol leaves (coz I can't come back after dinner, seeing that I've already enjoyed the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to), else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 169b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Friday!  Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3162. D2's potential final, final report for Friday: 3162 steps also equals eighty-four kcal or 1.22km. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Friday?
-When Aunty Lucia announced her arrival around 4:08pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice warm shower for me - I washed my own hair today, but thanks to Aunty Lucia who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, had another tinkle, then got very lightly creamed. Aunty Lucia spread aloe vera over my body then rekitted me, all the while yapping nonstop! That woman loves talking. :P
-Afterwards, Aunty Lucia Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where PIG mum gave me one banana for afternoon tea. I also drank one yummy mint of jasmine green tea holding the mug 'incorrectly'.
-Before leaving, Aunty Lucia took me once more to the loo.
-After I signed her off, however, she couldn't leave, because PIG mum dragged her outside to view her vegie patch! Poor Aunty Lucia didn't escape until 5:30pm.
-Me, I'm just hoping that Nine's 6pm bulletin will load tonight. Actually, @ 6pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-At 7pm tonight, I'm going to Ray's for small group and dinner!
-Expect a pissy plodding total from me toms, coz I'm not going out. Nope, Rhi's coming to mind me from 10am till 1pm, then Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower in the arvo. So hoping everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 169

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2884 steps today (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling seventy-nine kcal or 1.12km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'When God Puts You On Hold (2)' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's twenty-three but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves around 5pm!!! Righteo, events for today?
-Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! I'm giving the credit to the fact that I managed to stay online till 10pm before letting PIG mum boot me off. XD Nature didn't call until 6:20am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 6:30am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:50am.
-More happy sleepings with Daddy bear follow, plus one more pot :P trip, before PIG mum comes and pokes me with "fifteen more minutes." When she comes back, I use the pot :P for two more tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum gets me kitted, gleefully FORCES :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was three yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P plus one full mug of water, which I drank holding 'incorrectly' whilst PIG mum was upstairs changing.
-Before leaving for UQ, I went and did my stinky unspeakable. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but I also leaned briefly against the side rail and continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the 4WD.
-PIG mum then tootled me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to Westlife's 'Greatest Hits' album all day today, too. While she drove, I kept both eyes closed and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Then, opening both eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-At UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then kindly left me with that gossip mag from August this year and went back downstairs to pay Shyla.
-Eric came for me with a walkbelt. Physio today: six-eight laps walking along the hallway, fifty sit-to-stands and seventeen-eighteen minutes on the I Care machine. Needless to say, I was drenched and panting afterwards!
-When PIG mum tootled us off to the Warrigal Square Maccas for lunch, Era helped Ela stretch for fifteen minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five.
-First, though, PIG mum went and bought some mincemeat from the butchers so we could make dumplings tomorrow night!
-At Maccas, PIG mum bought me a small Fillet-O-Fish burger meal with a delicious bananaberry smoothie. She didn't order anything for herself, just nabbed my chips and read the newspaper. XD
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled me home, I went once to the loo (of course, she gleefully forced me to do everything) then I walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Aunty Lucia should come supervise my shower in like fifteen minutes, so fingers crossed I can bbl, else:
-Tonight I'm off to Ray's @ 7pm for our small group dinner!
-Toms: Rhi comes @ 10am, some aunties will prolly come @ 11:30am and teach me Canto translation then Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm. Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 169d

One final good evening! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3293. D2's final, final report for Thursday: 3293 steps also equals something significantly over forty-nine kcal or 1.636km. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?
-At 9pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with ... ops, I've forgotten his name, but I'm sure PIG mum'll remember it. XD
-Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ Dong Fong/Sunnybank Oriental! Remember, I didn't get to go on Monday coz Jane was taking me to meet that Australia Post guy!
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Ray's for small group @ 7pm, not 7:30pm, coz we're all having dinner together first! PIG mum says she'll fry onions and eggs; I'll prolly haveta let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk through Coles first before I get lunch, just to buy the onions and eggs, but oh well.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 169c

Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3192, which D2 proudly reports as also equaling something significantly over forty-six kcal or 1.596km and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Ruthless Perfection'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?
-One quick loo trip before I let PIG mum gleefully force all four limbs on some stupid ball exercises for 20+ minutes.
-Next, she gleefully FORCED :( poor Em to plod two/four laps side-walking for her.
-Afterwards, she gleefully forced mostly poor Ela on 40+ minutes of stupid exercises for her.
-That was followed with a painful standing calf stretch for poor Elf lasting fifteen minutes.
-All that culminated with PIG mum gleefully FORCING :( poor Em to plod twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill for her.
-Dinner after one loo trip (where, of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself): the yummy rice, lotsa home-grown vegies (lol, I highly suspect PIG mum just likes hearing the sound of her own voice; when I asked her were these the vegetables that she had grown with dearest dad, her snarky response was, "What, you still don't know, after you've been eating them for that long?" I mean, a 'yes' or a 'no' would have sufficed! But far be it from me to deny PIG mum the pleasure of listening to herself yap... XD), some of dad's meat brisket (actually, say 'water egg' in Canto) and two/three small slices of yummy chicken, which I saved for last, of course.
-Dinner was spooned down with one mug of heavily watered-down soup. PIG mum says she watered it down for me coz she knows I don't like normal mushrooms. After I finished drinking, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me walk back online.
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can brb after one final loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 169b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1855, which D2 proudly reports also equals forty-one kcal or 760m.XD Righteo, events for today?
-Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 6:30am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored,until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles, then PIG mum got me kitted. Next, she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, which was two yummy Weetbix with the shortest and thinnest stream of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water.
-Didi I do a stinky unspeakable before leaving for the Garbo library? Lol, I've forgotten! XD
-Anyways, @ the library, PIG mum took me once to the loo then left for work.
-Lotsa people at writers group today: thirteen! The topic for next meeting (also our last for 2013) is 'A Christmas Meal'.
-Boyd had kindly helped me pack my bag and I was on the loo when I heard dearest dad's voice. "Em? I'm here."
-So I went with him on one delivery before he tootled us home and we had lunch together.
-Perky's books arrived! I let Perky know immediately, then started reading right away.
-After sharing some watermelon together, dad returned to work. When Joey announced her arrival around 2pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and welcomed her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice warm shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mostly dried myself (Annette helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (Annette helped only with my back, Era and both calves ) then mostly rekitted myself (Annette helped with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, before Annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my half an arvo toastie and mug of yummy rice green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Annette sat and massaged Ela for almost forty minutes.
-Before leaving, she took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. She's not back until next Thursday, so I'm presuming I'll see Carol Lockwood this Saturday.
-Ugh, PIG mum's booting me offline now, to do goodness knows how long of stupid exercises for her. >< Well, fingers crossed I can bbl, coz I'm still owed ONE HOUR and SEVENTEEN MINUTES online!!!!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 169

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1492 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling thirty-four kcal or 610m XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'When God Puts You On Hold (1) but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Annette leaves @ 6pm!!! But just noting that today I had writers group before Joey came and taught me pilates for thirty minutes; toms I've got late morning UQ physio then toms night I'm off to Ray's for dinner @ 7pm! Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 169b

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for Wednesday! Em's new plodding total for Wednesday, from 4pm, now stands @ 375; D2 proudly reports that 375 steps also equals something very slightly over five kcal or something very slightly over 140m. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for Wednesday?
-When Carol announced her arrival @ like 3:56pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice warm, if terribly limited shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm shower off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era) and mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped with only Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for four tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and trying to talk to God, like Vicky had suggested. Usually, I only stay for two, but PIG mum and Carol were yakking their heads off ('twas too muffled to hear what about, exactly) and it wasn't until I'd sat over the loo for four tinkles and BELLOWED, "Carol, I'm all done; can you please come and help me with my shoes and laces?!" that she heard me. XD
-After going over to wash and dry Era, Carol Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for afternoon tea. Thanks to PIG mum who'd bought me one yummy chicken and egg sushi roll to enjoy, but zero thanks to her who wouldn't even lemme have one DROP of soya sauce to enjoy that with! ><" Anyways, the yummy mug of rice green tea I drank with the sushi was the third and last for Wednesday that I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol cleaned the bathroom, then sat and gently massaged Ela for thirty-five minutes while I read my book club novel. I've almost finished it; it's only very thin!
-Before leaving @ 6pm, Carol took me once more to the loo for two/three tinkles. She's back next Monday, and will have sweet and sour BEEF for dinner tonight; sweet and sour pork and sweet and sour chicken I've heard of, but never sweet and sour beef!
-At 6:15pm, nature suddenly called, and I took myself once slowly and safely to the toilet and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Anyways, I won't be returning online tonight unless PIG mum gleefully FORCES :( me to walk on the bloody treadmill, so here's what's happening toms:
-Writers group! I did my homework this morning; must remember to ask PIG mum please to recharge my mobile phone battery for me tonight.
-Dad's picking me up, taking me home and I presume PIG mum'll get me some leftovers to have for lunch. She doesn't like us going out by ourselves, coz she's afraid that dad and I will argue.
-And it's Annette coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-Lol, must try asking dad again if he'll take PIG mum and I out for dinner toms night. It didn't work out last week, but hey, there's no danger in trying!
-Oh, and yay for ice cream tonight; like I keep saying, a very little's better than none @ all! Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 169

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's still without a plodding total for Wednesday but I should return with one soon coz PIG mum bought a new battery for D2 and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Breaking the Family-Resistance Barrier' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!!! Righteo, events for today?
-Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 6:45am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work @ 7:50am.
-Incedibly, I manage to fall back asleep before PIG mum comes and pokes me with "fifteen more minutes"! When she comes back, I swing myself around to the pot :P once more for three tinkles and PIG mum gets me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Today, PIG mum gleefully forces only poor Ela to prepare my breakfast (two Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever), but I don't really mind coz I'm seated and can concentrate. Also popping all my usual drugs :P and draining one full mug of water, I continue my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me through today okay.
-Before leaving, I go and do a stinky unspeakable. Of course, PIG mum gleefully forces me to dak myself, but I also lean briefly against the side rail and finish my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Actually, PIG mum orders me out before I'm finished, but that's okay, because I know I can sit over the loo again when Aunty Mecky's here.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCES :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk out to the 4WD and tootles me out for another torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. Of course, she gleefully forces poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listen to Westlife's 'Greatest Hits' album all day, too. While she drives, Era helps Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opens and closes her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-Physio today: three attempts before staying seated, then stood entire session and held a ball with both hands and had to walk four steps without Ela straightening. She opened door and held onto rail @ end, and I also bent to retrieve ball from ground.
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled me home, and I opened the computer to write out my writers group homework about 'Sick'. While I wrote, Aunty Mecky arrived (three minutes late today) and served me some yummy kiwi.
-When I finished, Aunty Mecky Forced me to walk over to the gobbling :P table, where first I rang dearest dad and talked to him for about 3.5 minutes.
-Lunch was one yummy toasted tuna in tomato and onion sandwich. Thanks to Aunty Mecky who added one slice of cheese for me, although she says next time she won't unless I get permission from PIG mum first. The yummy mug of chocolate Nesquik was the first mug for today that I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-Afterwards, I went to the loo, and completed the stinky unspeakable I'd started that morning. Thanks to Aunty Mecky who passed me another mug of water first, which was my second mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Back @ the gobbling :P table, I happily read the book club novel, while Aunty Mecky did the rubbing for Ela for twenty minutes. Then she gave herself the next forty minutes off, going to wash the dishes then just standing to watch the television. I told her to just sit on the sofa; it's more comfortable! Dunno why she isn't as hardworking as Aunty Wendy, who did the rubbing for Ela for ONE FULL HOUR, straight, without any breaks!
-Aunty Mecky came back @ 2pm and did the rubbing for Ela for ten more minutes. Then we just chatted until PIG mum came home.
-One more loo trip for me, then I tootled online.
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm, so fingers crossed I can bbl, else toms:
-writers group! I've done my homework~
-Lol, hope Joey won't come and teach me pilates come the arvo!
-Annette's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-And will try again to ask dad will he take us out for dinner again toms night. It didn't work last fortnight, but there's no harm in trying again!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 146c

Good evening, and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Alas, PIG mum still hasn't bought D2 a new battery yet, so I'll just note down that Joni's devotional topic's 'Look to the Heavens'. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?
-Before leaving for Oishii, I went once more to the loo.

Tuesday Post 146b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Tuesday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ ... lol, I forgot that D2 died. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for tonight?
-When Annette announced her presence shortly before 4pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice warm shower for me - I washed and rinsed my hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Annette helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (Annette helped only with my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (Annette helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and trying to talk to God again.
-Afterwards, I went over to wash and dry Era, before Annette Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-After reheating the second half of lunch for arvo tea and making one mug of yummy rice green tea, I sat and enjoyed the drink and food. The cup was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Annette sat and massaged Ela for like forty-five minutes; I happily read The Chosen for thirty minutes after I finished arvo tea.
-Before leaving, Annette took me once more to the loo. She's back on Thursday.

Tuesday Post 146

Good afternoon! Alas, PIG mum only bought me D2 not along ago, but his battery's already run flat! >< So instead, I'll just note down that TWFT topic's 'Keys to Unanswered Prayer' and start with today's events!
~Lol, I reckon I could've scored another awesome night's sleep last night, if PIG mum hadn't been doing sth REALLY LOUDLY in the kitchen and STOMPING around!! XD
-Anyways, nature called again around 6:05am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 6:15am having a 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.  After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work @ 7:50am.
-More happy sleepings with Daddy bear followed, plus @ least one more pot :P trip when suddenly, the garage door guy arrived!
-Lol, 'twas funny; PIG mum had gone upstairs when I heard him come inside and ask "Umm... excuse me?" So I helpfully hollered upstairs, "Mum! The Mr. garage door guy is looking for you!" I heard him smother a chuckle as PIG mum tumbled downstairs to answer his question. XD
-After the guy left, PIG mum dug me up. I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles and she got me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Whilst PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Before leaving, I went and did a stinky unspeakable. Of course, 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 AND WASH AND DRY BOTH HANDS, BEFORE SHE GLEEFULLY forced :( ME TO WALK TO THE 4wd. wE LISTENED TO wESTLIFE'S 'gREATEST hITS' ALBUM ALL DAY TODAY AND OF COURSE, pig MUM GLEEFULLY FORCED POOR eM TO BUCKLE HER OWN SEATBELT ALL DAY, TOO. wHILE SHE DROVE, eRA HELPED eLA STRETCH FOR TEN MINUTES, BEFORE eLA OPENED AND CLOSED HER PALM FIFTY TIMES, HOLDING EACH FOR A COUNT OF FIVE.

-Afterwards, we went to the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant for lunch! First, though, PIG mum took me once to the loo.
-I ordered my favourite, the BBQ pork with tofu rice. PIG mum had the chicken and seasonal vegetables with rice; we traded.

-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled me back to Warrigal Square, where she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to Woolies and buy groceries, then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the pharmacy to see whether she could buy a new battery for D2. Alas, she couldn't. ><
-Back home, I went once more to the loo (of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself) before PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to the computer and I plopped online.
-Annette's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.

Good evening again, and one final greeting for Monday! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4883. D2's final, final report for Monday: 4883 steps also equals sth significantly over 108 kcal or apparently, 2.43km! XD Anyways, final, final events for Monday?
-Afterwards, Carol Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where I enjoyed the yummy (if rather bland XD) teriyaki chicken that Aunty Winnie had made me! The yummy mug of jasmine green tea I drank was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol went and cleaned the bathroom, came back, watched the news (I'd started reading) then massaged Ela for just over thirty minutes.
-Before leaving just after 6pm, Carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles.
-Almost immediately after dearest dad returned home, PIG mum tumbled downstairs, gleefully and immediately forced me offline.
-First, she gleefully FORCED :( me to plod two laps side-walking for her.
-Next, she gleefully forced poor Ela on 40+ minutes of stupid exercises for her.\
-After that, she gleefully forced both calves on some lifting exercises.
-And finally, she gleefully FORCED :( poor Em to plod twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill for her.
-Before dinner, I took myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa home-grown lettuce, lotsa beans that Dr. Mor had given PIG mum @ work, some king salmon and several wee chunks of tasty beef.
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of last night's soup, before I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back online.
-At 9:05pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: very late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. >< Also, someone's coming to service our garage door.
-Fingers crossed I can get some yummy lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant afterwards!
-And it's Annette coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 146c

Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4803 (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling something significantly over 107kcal or 2.4km; wait, that doesn't sound right ...?) and secondly, Joni's devotion topic's 'Help in the Nick of Time'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?
-As usual, I spent most of the trip with both eyes closed, finishing mymostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Opening both eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before she opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-At UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then kindly left me with the Who gossip mag from around August this year and went back downstairs to pay Shyla.
-Eric came for me with a walkbelt and walked me into the gym holding Ela. Physio today: ten sit-to-stands, six laps walking along hallway, ten minutes tilt table and some work for Ela.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo, then tootled us back to Warrigal Square. While she was driving, Era helped Ela stretch for the full fifteen minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm 100 times, holding each for a count of five.
-At Warrigal Square, I first had to let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk through Woolies to buy milk for dearest dad before we enjoyed lunch @ the Sushi Train. Dunno why she wouldn't lemme enjoy any udon, but hey, two plates of sushi were yummy. Oh, and the yummy mug of green tea was my first cup for today that I held 'incorrectly'.
-After lunch, PIG mum drove us home and I went into the bathroom to get changed into interview style clothes.
-Then she tootled me off to meet Jane! While she drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-We waited @ Epic for Jane for @ least fifteen minutes. PIG mum Whatsapped people, and I played Candy Crush. XD Actually, I did about five of those 4Pic1Word games.
-Once Jane was ready, I bid farewell to PIG mum, got into Jane's car and she tootled me off to some Coffee Club in the city!
-After parking underground somewhere, Jane and I linked arms, caught an elevator up and walked the short distance to the Coffee Club.
-While waiting for the dude to arrive (think his name was sth like Matthew), Jane and I reviewed the resume she'd drawn up for me and I offered her a correction and gave her my formal e-mail address.
-When the guy arrived, both he and I ordered a chocolate milkshake while Jane had an iced coffee.
-We didn't actually do much. Jane asked me to introduce myself to the guy, which I did, and the guy said he'd pass my resume to some higher-up after he got back to work.
-Afterwards, Jane and I walked arm-in-arm back to her car. OMG, forty-five minutes parking cost like $37!!
-Jane's car is really cool; you can answer phone calls while driving!
-Back home, I plopped briefly online until Carol arrived, only one minute late today.
-So a nice warm limited shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped with only my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped with only my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (Carol only helped with Elf's AFO). Then I walked across to the loo for two tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and thanking God for letting me have a good day today.
-fingers crossed I can brb!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 146b

Heylo again!Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3646, which D2 proudly reports as also equaling 102kcal or 1.36km. Righteo, events for today?
-Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:25am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 5:35am having ten minutes till 6:15am having a 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. Actually, going on Vicky's suggestion that I should try talking to God, I asked Him please to have a good meeting this afternoon with the Australia Post guy that Jane had booked me to see. After that, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work @ 7:50am.
-Once he left, PIG mum was soon inside and poking me with "fifteen more minutes." When she came back, I used the pot :P for two more tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was three yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water.
-Before leaving for UQ, I went and did my stinky unspeakable. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but I also leaned briefly against the side rail and continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the 4WD.
-Off PIG mum tootled me to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forces poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listen to Westlife's 'Greatest Hits' album all day, too. It's got like nineteen songs!
-Argh, PIG mum's gleefully forcing me offline to do goodness knows how long of stupid exercises for her. >< Well, fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner tonight, because I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTEEN MINUTES online!!! ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-At 8pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: 10am UQ physio with ... lol, like always with new students, I've forgotten his name. I remember it's only two syllables, but not what it is. XD Never mind, bet PIG mum'll remember. XD That's @ 10am, BTW.
-Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong afterwards! Or anywhere else that sells yummy lunch ...?
-Jane from Epic's taking me to some job interview @ 1:30! Gosh, fingers crossed I can finally get myself a paid job! Vicky recommends praying to God tonight ... I'll try.

Sunday Post 146

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding slightly more than 2723 steps today (D2 proudly reports that 2501 steps also equals sixty-three kcal or 1.08km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Be Single Minded (1) and thirdly, the spam count for the week's five but fourthly and way most importantly, I'll definitely be owed some time online after dinner because I didn't get on till 5:40pm!!! Anyways, let's start with last night's events first!
-When Aunty A announced her arrival around 6:45pm, PIG mum let her inside coz she was just doing some housework around the lounge room, phew.
-Before I joined them for dinner, I took myself slowly and safely once to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Dinner last night: the yummy rice and lol, I've forgotten! Lotsa vegies and some fish, from memory.
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup then I just sat and read my book club novel for the rest of the night. Aunty A and the parents went to watch Up.
-The moment Aunty A left, PIG mum immediately booted me off to bed. Repeat the usual nightly events, then zzz~
-Today: I used the pot :P once last night and once around 6:05am. Then I spent the ten minutes till 6:15am having a 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. Actually, before I even did that, the very first thing was tell the cruel and unfaithful God that I can do ALL things WITHOUT Him who only seeks to hurt, harm and hinder me, and also that while He can break my body (like He's already done; I'm physically disabled beyond words ><) and He can bend my mind (like He's also done; my parents always jeer @ me that I don't think properly anymore ><) but my SOUL was NOT FOR HIM to possess. Afterwards, Daddy bear and I cuddled and snored, me waking once more to use the pot :P around 7:15am before PIG mum came inside and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more 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.
-Breakfast was two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, plus one full mug of water, which PIG mum demanded I drain half for her. Anyhow, it was my one mug for today to hold 'incorrectly', and whilst both parents were upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the angel/saint, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the 4WD and dearest dad tootled us off to church. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, but I just closed both eyes while dad was driving and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-At church, PIG mum took me once to the loo then left me with Aunty Katherine and rocked back upstairs to join dearest dad @ the Canto service.
-We didn't watch anything today! Instead, Aunty Katherine told me about this Chinese girl who was blind but had a very loving nanny to look after her, and she managed to get educated and everything! I wonder how you can get Chinese braille?
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, I grabbed some morning tea (two quarter-triangle sandwiches and two crackers) then sat down. Some awesome aunty (her daughter's only young) randomly snuck me another cracker, but PIG mum saw and immediately grabbed said aunty's arm, banning her from ever doing so again. :o(
-When morning tea was over, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk upstairs to the English service, before she rocked off for her very informal fellowship (they just have drinks and gossip) with the other church aunties.
-Phew, I got to stay seated for worship again today. :o) I sang everything, plus the harmony for two songs, but meant absolutely nothing.
-Speaker today was Steve Nation. He's incredibly tall!
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then the parents tootled me off to Little Nonya Singapore with the other SHINE people.
-Heidi was there! She said to PIG mum, "Gosh, you look tired." I just rolled my eyes and explained, "Heidi, my mum's ALWAYS tired. From the moment she wakes up in the morning, she's exhausted. I'm pretty sure she's got undiagnosed chronic fatigue syndrome."
-Anyways, eight people shared lunch together today. Thanks to Heidi who got me food; I had some rice, some ho fan, some fried noodle and some soup vermicelli.
-Afterwards, Vicky was walking behind me back out to Karen's car, when Karen said, "Hey, the car's really far away. Lemme go get it; you guys wait here." Thankfully, I leant against the bike rack and waited with Little Chow and Yuk Yan.
-Back @ church, I went once to the loo then went inside the fellowship room.
-Dr. Dr. Tai led worship; I managed to recognise ten consecutive Canto words!
-When we split into prayer groups, I was with Little Chow and ... Gina's twin, methinks. We didn't really have time to pray for each other, coz idiot me got slightly teary about the situation the cruel and unfaithful God's abandoned me into, so Vicky prayed for all of us.
-Today, we did the final chapter of John! Yup, after two years, we've finally finished it! Wonder what we'll do next year? Actually, Thomas mentioned something about SHINE splitting into couples and singles; guess we'll just wait and see!
-Afterwards, someone (I thought Ivy?) helped me once to the bathroom where again, I managewd fine by myself.
-PIG mum collected me soon afterwards, and demanded I shower afterwards. Obviously, I washed and rinsed my own hair today, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum helped only with Elf's AFO.
-Back outside, I popped online. Presume dinner'll get called soon.
-Toms: 10am physio @ UQ with ... Eric? Think that's his name ... XD
-Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ Dong Fong/Sunnybank Oriental afterwards!
-Actually, wasn't Jane taking me to some job interview thing? Fingers crossed I can finally get a paid job!!!
-Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. I'm still owed THIRTY MINUTES online!!!
