Wednesday Post 172

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2203 steps today (about 1200 of them were plodded last night; D2 proudly reports that 2203 steps also equals sth a fair bit over nineteen kcal or 1.01km XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'No Regrets' and thirdly, TWFT topic's "He's a God of Restoration (4)' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed THIRTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after Carol leaves around 6pm!!! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!
-When Carol Lockwood announced her arrival, 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.
-And Carol was awesome; she lemme have my last forty minutes of net time before I went for my nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carol who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold that towel over my right eye and keep it from getting wet.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, creamed and rekitted.
-Arvo tea was the usual toastie plus one mug of yummy rice green tea, my mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol massaged Ela for about thirty minutes before driving me out to the Sebel hotel for the Christmas function!
-At the Sebel, we found our room on Level five. I tried asking one waitress did they serve vodka chocolate mudslides but alas, they didn't. XD Carol had herself one glass of red wine; I reminded her not to drink too much coz she was driving me home tonight.
-I stuck with orange juice, and the night started! Lachlan was our Toastmaster, Monica did the warm-up! She had a corkscrew; everyone had to draw a slip of paper from her bag which contained a profession, you had to say how the corkscrew helped you in your job. I drew teacher and deadpanned: "I run a very tight classroom. The students know to behave and listen to me, else I stick them with this! I wave corkscrew around, everyone else breaks into laughter. XD
-The food was a disappointment, though. I was hoping for pastry things; instead I had to salmon skewers, one chicken skewer, yeah, that was almost it. :o(
-After the break, Sharon led table topics! She asked for a volunteer; Amy and I both expressed interest but Amy gave me the role. ASharon had her Table Topics participants play taboo! I was given this dreadfully noisy alarm to buzz anyone who uttered a forbidden word. Gosh, that alarm was NOISY!!!! I asked Sharon please could I keep it to annoy PIG mum with; Sharon laughed, said no, then said they were available from BDig W, if I wanted one!
-So after we posed for group photos (I stood up from Sparkless2, less PIG mum diss me for not doing so) and Carol and some waitress using Jordan's phone took happy snaps.
-Some for chatting, pulling of Christmas bon bons, and that was the night! I bid everyone farewell, and asked monica please to find a room for our Toastmasters meeting next year that was wheelchair accessible, else I wouldn't be able to attend anymore. :o(
-Carol tootled me home; I signed her off for the extra hour and said my thanks and byes. I won't see her till almost Christmas now; she's heading down to northern NSW for hols with her friend!
-Instant bedtime for me once arriving home, zzz.
-Eek, Carol gets here in less than twenty minutes! Typetypetype~
-Woohoo, 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 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 to use the pot :P again @ 7:05am and once more @ 8:05am when dearest dad left for work.
-I'm definitely having a super week; again, I didn't haveta see  Vincent the bloody physio! :D But hope PIG mum  gets well soon, hey; it's better being tortured by him than having to put up with a sick and cranky mother! Lol, just this morning, she accused me of not being human! I wonder, did she consider me a pig, then? No, that's her. XD I'd rather be a horse!
-So Daddy bear and I happily cuddled and rested until Aunty Mecky arrived @ 11:30am.
-She got me kitted, I went over and brushed teeth, used the loo once then headed outside to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was two yummy weetbix with the smallest dot of honey ever.
-Right after that, Aunty Mecky served me one juicy pear.
-And right after that was lunch time! I ate some tomato Maggi noodles plus lotsa PIG mum's home-grown lettuce. I also drank one mug of yummy chocolate Nesquik holding the mug 'incorrectly'.
-Afterwards, I went and did a stinky unspeakable, while Aunty Mecky was super-nice and made PIG mum some conjee
-Back @ the gobbling :P table, I read Wallaby Stew, while Aunty Mecky did the rubbing for Ela for about twenty minutes, gave herself the next forty minutes off and read the junk mail, then came back and rubbed Ela for barely ten more minutes.
-Before leaving @ precisely 2:30. Aunty Mecky took me once more to the loo. She tells me that her youngest daughter finishes school this Friday!
-Eep, Carol's arriving soon, so toms:
-I'm going out for my fortnightly Garbo trip! :D Anna's already said she'll meet me for lunch~
-Even better, we have book club toms night! I've already written out all my Christmas cards~
-Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
