Monday Post 145

Good evening! Actually, I'm not sure if 'good evening' is actually an appropriate greeting, coz while it's like 6:16pm now, it's still so light outside! Only I can't say 'good afternoon' either, because the sun's more or less set. XD Anyways, firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4988 steps today (which D2 proudly reports as also equaling 123 kcal or 1.98km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'What You Learn In Tough Times'; thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's "Gpd's Fingers ... God's Arm" and fourthly, obviously I'm gonna be owed time online tonight, if only because I didn't get online till like 6pm! Anyways, let's start with last night's events first!
-Dad tootled me off to Ching and Sylvia's place for dinner! After PIG mum gleefully FORCED:( me to walk inside, I sat on the most left to prevent anyone from sitting where I couldn't see them.
-After we all introduced ourselves, 'twas time for dinner! Mid Chow and Little Chow had bought boxes of Chinese takeaway for everyone, I was walking with Uncle Ching to get me one plate of food when Mid Chow intercepted me and said to sit down; she'g get food for me coz she knew what I liked.
-I'd told Sylvia jie jie earlier that I'd need to sit @ a table to eat; she sat with me and even went to get me extra vegetables when she saw there weren't too many on my plate! XD
-After dinner, we all sat back down in a circle. Ivy and Anna? (I've forgotten her name, sorry! ><" shared about their baptism, and that was the night!
-Uncle Ching walked us (Dr. Dr. Tai, Little Chow, Mid Chow and me) back to Mid Chow's car, and she tootled me back home.
-Only the parents weren't there! I tried ringing PIG mum's mobile, but nobody picked up, so I tried dearest dad's phone. Dad told me that he'd come pick me up from the Chow's house, so Mid Chow tootled us back to her place, where we just sat in the car and yakked until PIG mum and dearest dad arrived. Turns out they had to drop Aunty A home after having dinner @ Haoke.
-Back home, repeat the usual nightly process, zzz.
-Monday: woo hoo, another awesome sleep last night! That makes another entire week's worth! :D Nature didn't call until 5:25am; after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes until 5:35am 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. 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 for the pot :P around 7:05am before PIG mum came in about ten later and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the loo once more for three tinkles and she got me kitted. Then 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 three yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs and one full mug of water.
-Before leaving, I went to the loo and randomly did a stinky unspeakable. Of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but I also leaned briefly against the side rail and asked Percy the saint/angel please to help me get through today okay.
-Hmm ... PIG mum's just come downstairs; doubtless she'll boot me offline very soon, so lemme just note that today I had 9am physio @ UQ, went grocery shopping @ Woolies with PIG mum, saw Lei shifu for a comfy massage, had some kinda tori-don from the nikumaki place for lunch (well, about 2/3 of it; PIG mum saved the 1/3 for arvo tea), had a meeting with Aimee and met the new carer who'll take me out to Garbo this Thursday (she's from El Salvador and her name's Roxanne) ... wait, PIG mum's just hit pigland upstairs, meaning I can continue with my day!
-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.
-We listened to Westlife's 'The Love Album all day and of course, PIG mum gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, too. While PIG mum drove me to UQ for physio, I kept both eyes closed and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Opening both eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five.
-At UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo then kindly left me with a gossip magazine and went back downstairs to pay.
-Sabina came for me, held Ela and walked me into the gym. Physio today: fifteen minutes tilt table, fifteen minutes balance master, ten sit-to-stands and some work for Ela.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us back to Warrigal Square, where she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk through Woolies and buy milk for dearest dad.
-Next, she drove me to Epic for another useless meeting. I'm still jobless. :o(
-We went back home for lunch with dearest dad. Actually, we'd stopped @ the nikumaki shop and I'd bought one bowl of toridon rice! The guy's got a whole menu, apart from the nikumaki!
-After lunch, PIG mum tootled me off to Chi Link to see Lei shifu for a comfy massage, while she went to Kmart to look for some new work pants.
-While Lei shifu massaged away, I used all my (very limited XD) Chinese skills to ask him about his daughter. Lei shifu told me that she's working until Christmas Eve, but then gets like three months off!
-PIG mum came back and had a merry yak with Lei shifu. Afterwards, she took me once more to the loo, then tootled me home, just as Amee arrived for her meeting!
-With Aimmee was the lady that'll take me to Garbo on Thursday; she's twenty-nine and from El Salvador! Think her name's Roxanne and she speaks Spanish.
-After Carol arrived, I was sent to shower - 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 with only Elf's AFO, my shoes and laces. Before heading outside for afternoon tea, I went to the loo for two tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and slowly, very softly but most hatefully singing about 24% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, closing both eyes for all the important numbers.
-Afternoon tea was the leftover 1/3 chicken rice I'd had for lunch today, plus one yummy mug of peppermint tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Once I'd finished eating, Carol massaged Ela for nearly forty minutes, while I read A Casual Vacancy. Can't remember what colour Carol painted today, but 'twas with hundreds and thousands sprinkle dots.
-Before they left, I went once more to the loo for two tinkles. I'll see Carol again on Wednesday, while Roxanne will take me out to Garbo on Thursday morning!
-I returned online, taking myself once more slowly and safely to the loo @ 7:30pm, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
-Dearest dad's just cooking vegetables for our dinner tonight; PIG mum's hit pigland downstairs.
-Toms: late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. >< But hopefully I can have lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant afterwards!
-Carol Lockwood's taking me to Toastmasters toms night! Fingers crossed that I can get some dinner @ Maccas afterwards! Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
