Saturday Post 157

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2105 steps today (remembering that like 1200 of those steps were plodded last night @ Ray's place for small group); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Taking Sin Seriously' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Courage With Cold Feet'. Righteo, let's start off with last night's events first!
~After the usual dinner and loo trip, dad tootled me off to Ray's for small group and followed me up the stairs before going back home.
-Tony led last night; we did session five, regarding Christ's return. Nat brought over these really weird juice pops for us to try; they were like watermelon/kiwi/strawberry flavoured!
-Afterwards, we had cake for Pole and Ray! After singing the birthday song for Pole (I'd given her my card and our present when she'd first arrived and did the hip hips, of course), we took photos (I remembered to stand, lest PIG mum chuck another cow @ me) and gobbled yummy cake together! Pole's was vanilla, but Ray's was MINT! I've already told Lana: I want a mint cake for my birthday, please!! XD
-Pole dropped me off home afterwards; turns out Joey had just come for the cake! She explained that Matthew had dropped her off.
-Back home, repeat the usual nightly events, then zzz~ poor Elf felt unloved coz PIG mum didn't give her a rub. :o(
-However, I had a great sleep last night, to welcome in Feb! 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.
-Happy sleepings with Daddy Bear resumed, until PIG mum left for work, when I used the pot :P once more. After she'd gone, I continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-
-More happy snorings with Daddy Bear followed, plus two more pot :P trips, before Rhi arrived about five minutes early.
-After finding out from me that the aunties weren't coming to teach me translation skills today, Rhi lemme sleep in some before digging me up! :D
-So I used the pot :P once more for @ least three tinkles, Rhi got me kitted and Forced me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to her who squirted some toothpaste for me.
-After drinking one mug of water holding the mug 'incorrectly', I went to the loo and did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-I went over to wash and dry Era after I'd finished, before Rhi walked behind me out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast.
-Thanks to dad who left me some egg and one whole slice of ham! Rhi cooked the bread yummy, then I made myself one yummy ham, egg and cheese sandwich, which Rhi cut into two rectangles for me. My delicious cup of weekly white tea, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, was the second for today that I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-After Rhi cleaned my room, she sat and massaged Ela for about thirty minutes, painting her sth like red/orange with black spots today. She's super-smart: Rhi got top of her paramedic class last year! Also, I won't see much of her this year, because she's going over to like the United Kingdom for more paramedic training, then she's graduating after the end of this year and I won't ever see her again! :(
-At about 12:25pm Rhi took me again to the loo for two/three tinkles and made me one mug of Milo, sweetened with one teaspoonful of sugar, my third mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-I rang both Aunty Lai and Aunty Nga to 'bai leen' (say that in Canto). I chatted with Aunty Lai for about seven minutes, but only talked with Aunty Nga for about five, coz Mickey was being a massive brat. ><
-Before Rhi left @ 1pm, she took me to the loo once more for two/three tinkles.
-For some reason, dad ordered I wait for PIG mum to come downstairs after having her shower before I was allowed to eat lunch, but hey, no biggie.
-After lunch, I walked myself slowly and safely to the computer table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm. PIG mum says to ask her please can she drop me off @ Aunty Katie's place coz I'm staying there tonight for SHINE's CNY dinner!
-Toms: just church, nothing special. Well, the special thing can be that I'm doing the story telling for the lil kiddies during English service! Vicky says Kathy's making craft afterwards; hopefully she'll make sth cool~
-Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ Plaza afterwards!
-Also fingers crossed I get some visitors in the arvo! The roster says I've got SHINE fellowship, but do I?
-Anyways, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 179b

Hello again, and probably one final greeting for Friday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 47678; D2's probable final, final report for Thursday: 4698 steps also equals 102 kcal or 1.98km. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for tonight?
-When Aunty Lucia arrived, PIG mum was still around and let her in, phew.
-So a nice warm shower for me - 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 warm water off, got dried, got very lightly creamed and had another tinkle. Aunty Lucia rekitted me, and I had one last tinkle when Aunty Lucia was tying Erf's shoelaces.
-I let Aunty Lucia Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where arvo tea was the yummy kaarage chicken sushi I'd bought from Sushi Paradise after lunch today (only there were chilli flakes and sweet chilli sauce on it!! ><), plus one mug of yummy lemon green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-BTW, I chewed Era's thumbnail short this arvo. The third and pointer can wait till tonight. XD
-Before leaving, Aunty Lucia took me to the loo once more. And she gave me a red packet!!
-Tonight I'm off to Ray's for small group. Luckily, dad's just arrived home, so he'll follow me up the stairs tonight, phew.
-Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total toms, coz I'm not going anywhere. Rhi comes from 10am till 4pm then Annette @ 4pm to supervise my shower, but the lucky thing will get to leave super-early and still get paid for two hours because I'm going to Aunty Katie's for the SHINE CNY dinner!
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. At 6pm, 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.

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4385 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling ninety-two kcal or 1.83km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Do You Need A Breakthrough?' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's just eight, but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves!!! But just noting down that this morning I had physio @ UQ before having lunch @ plaza with Fi and Julz then enduring an ouchy pincushion practice session with Dr. Lin (she gave me my first red packet); tonight I'm off to Ray's for Ray's for small group, then toms expect a pissy plodding total coz I'm not going out; Rhi's coming from 10am till 1pm then Carol Lockwood @ 4pm to supervise my shower, but she'll get to leave right after that coz I'm going to Aunty Katie's place for the SHINE fellowship Chinese New Year dinner! Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl,  hope everyone has a smashing weekend!

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 179b

Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for Thursday! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 6883 (D2's final, final report for tonight: 6883 steps also equals 151kcal or 2.87km XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Grieving God's Heart". Just quickly, coz it's already just past 9pm, final, final events for tonight?
-Annette came to supervise my shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today.
-Dried, creamed and rekitted, I made my half arvo toastie and one mug of yummy lemon green tea for arvo tea.
-Annette took me once to the loo @ 5:35pm, then continued massaging her.
-When PIG mum said 'twas time to leave, she Forced me to walk out to the 4WD but kindly helped me with my seatbelt.
-PIG mum tootled me off to the Logan North library, but couldn't resist chucking another cow @ me. *sigh* So definitely singing myself to sleep tonight!! ><
-At the library, PIG mum took me once to the loo then left me in the meeting 4oom. Anna had come too!
-Tonight there were twelve ladies and one man. The speaker told me something about this site called Create Space; I'll check it out when I find the time.
-When we left, the librarian attending tonight said to send her my memoirs for a read! Her name's Kylie Barber.
-PIG mum tootled us home listening to 97.3FM. Aunty A had arrived, and once we got home, CNY Eve dinner started!
-For some reason, dad gave everyone hot honey lemon water? Also, PIG mum had bought some special taro pot thing especially for CNY. I also ate some fish, pork, and lotsa dearest dad's home-grown vegies. After dinner, I also spooned down one bowl of soup.
-Before returning online, I went once more to the loo. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself, but 'twas enough that she walked behind me, meaning I wasn't @ any risk of getting pushed over by the cruel and unfaithful God.
-Toms: late morning UQ physio session.
-Dunno what's for lunch afterwards (hopefully sth with chips; I haven't had any this week yet!) but I'm still PISSED that horrid PIG mum won't lemme watch a movie with Fiona coz she's demanding I go to some stupid acup[uncture session for her!! >< Don't worry, I'm definitely singing myself to sleep tonight (screw counting) but I'll wake up toms with a good attitude and refuse to let the cruel and unfaithful God spoil another day for me, huh.
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Ray's place for small group toms night. Think we'll do sth to celebrate Pole's belated birthday~
-0Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 179

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3853 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling seventy-four kcal or 1.6km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's "Get God's Opinion! (2)'. Righteo, events for today?
-I used the pot :P once last night and once this morning 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.
-Daddy bear and I resumed happy snorings together, me waking briefly to use the pot :P once more and kiss dearest dad goodbye when he left for work around 7:45am.
-More happy snorings with Daddy bear, plus one/two more pot :P trips, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for one tinkle, just swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. Oh, and my monthlies arrived. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to brush teeth (poor Ela), then 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' when 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 fully against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and tootled me off to Writers group! For some reason, she wouldn't lemme listen to anything, but hey, no biggie.
-Phew, there was a parking spot waiting for us. :o) I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk up into the library, visited the loo once then sat with the rest of the group.
-During group, Fiona and I Whatsapped each other, and now we're gonna have lunch together @ Plaza before going to watch Ronin47 together! :D
-Apart from that, Writers group was awesome like always. :o) I again shared Julz's story, and Whatsapped her feedback to her right away, lest PIG mum remove her paper upstairs and refuse to bring them back downstairs for me. Eileen asked me next time to also print out multiple copies of Julz's homewprk, so everyone can read a copy. Homework for next fortnight's Summer'. Neither Boyd (visiting rellies) nor Gabby (dunno why) came today, but Eileen ran the show in her stead. Also, BCC will no longer provide bikkies for our morning tea! >< Luckily, a unanimous vote decided we'd buy our own instead, ha. XD
-Afterwards, I went to the loo once more, and when I got out, Carol had arrived. :o) Luckily, she had found a parking spot fairly close to the lifts, phew. :o)
-Carol tootled me home; I went and turned off the alarm then went and sat down @ the gobbling :P table while Carol microwaved last night's dinner for my lunch, plus one mug of yummy rice green tea, my first mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'. Carol had bought herself one meat and tofu sushi roll.
-Before leaving, I went to the loo once more and asked Carol to please turn on the television loudly for me, please.
-After I thanked Carol, saw her out and locked the door behind her, I walked myself slowly and safely back to the computer, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-PIG mum should get home soon.
-Annette's gonna try come from 3:50pm till 5:50pm today and supervise my shower, coz tonight I'm going to the Logan North library to attend some talk about publishing a book! Not that my silly memoirs will ever be worth publishing, but hey. XD
-Toms: late morning physio @ UQ with ... lol, I've already forgotten their names; perhaps PIG mum'll remember. XD
-Will haveta rush back to Plaza for a quick lunch with Fiona and maybe Julz coz then Fiona and I are gonna watch Ronin 47 together!
-Aunty Lucia will come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Ray's for small group toms night! Righteo, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
-P.S. When Joey arrived, I walked myself slowly and safely to the door and welccomed her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not not letting Him push me over. I did the usual punching and kicking for all four limbs, and even better, PIG mum arrived home just as Joey was leaving. However, I'm PISSED coz PIG mum won't lemme see the movie with Fiona toms, coz I've got some stupid acupuncture session! Grr, next time she jeers @ me that i've got no social interactionanymore, I'm just gonna shoot straight back into her face, "Yeah, well, I've got YOU to thank for that, coz you're the one preventing me from meeting my peers!!"" >< ARGH!!! Don't worry, I know it's just the cruel and unfaithful Gopd trying His hardest to ruin my day, so I'm just gonna keep a good attitude, rise above His hatred and totally ignore Him. >< Maybe there'll be another time ...

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5482 (ha, D2 reckons I'm more than half a normal person today; his potential final, final report for Wednesday: 5482 steps also equals 130kcal or 2.28km XD). Anyways, potential final, final events for tonight?
-Carol didn't arrive till 4:40pm! She explained that there was some bus mix up.
-So a nice warm shower for me today - I washed and rinsed my own hair.
-I had one tinkle 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 and my laces). Then I went over to the loo, and after taking one gulp from the mug of water I hadn't drank for PIG mum, did my second stinky unspeakable for today.
-Grief, PIG mum's waiting for the exact minute I've enjoyed the PISSY two hours of net time she so gleefully restricts me to so she can boot me offline and gleefully force me to do goodness knows how long of stupid exercises for her. ><
-I enjoyed some chicken sushi for lunch, plus one mug of yummy rice green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol massaged Ela for thirty minutes while we watched Seven's news together. The most interesting surname I found was sth like 'Pappa'.
-Carol took me once more to the loo for three tinkles before leaving. She'll pick me up from writers group toms~
-ice cream night tonight! Like I keep saying, a very little's better than none @ all!

Wednesday Post 179

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4757 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 114kcal or1.98km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Get God's Opinion! (1)' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWO MINUTES online after Carol leaves two hours after she arrives!!! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!
-When Carol Lockwood announced her arrival two minutes early, 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 - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carol who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Explanations', BTW.
-After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, Carol and I held hands and I walked out well to the gobbling ::P table with her. Arvo tea was my delicious lunch leftovers plus one mug of white tea sweetened with two sugars, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-We set off earlier than usual for Toastmasters, coz we were in some new building!
-Carol was awesome and found it~
-My warmup session went well! Only Leonard suggested, during his general evaluation, that I sit closer to the sides, coz I was seated in the middle, and Neil actually had to move a table for Sparkless2 to squeeze through. Personally, I didn't like this new room coz there weren't any disabled toilets! Oh well, Georgina says we'll be switching rooms quite frequently.
-Afterwards, Carol took me once more to the loo then tootled me back to Maccas for my Happy Meal. I was grumpy coz PIG mum had already gleefully restricted me to just an orange juice, saying, "You're having a thickshake for your birthday from the Coffee Club," but sheesh, it's still january; my birthday isn't until MARCH! >< *sigh* bags I get a shake next fortnight, then!
-Back home, instant bedtime. Zzz~ No, wait: uncle Slam bought me two tubes of Darlie toothpaste that are something like Jasmine Tea flavoured!
-Today: Yay, awesome sleep last night! That's my first straight weeks' of awesome sleeps for 2014! Nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:20am 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.
-Happy snorings with Daddy bear resumed until dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work. I used the pot :P once more, and after she'd gone,resumed happy snorings with Daddy Bear and Hoot Hoot.
-After PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes," I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over 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 :P and one full mug of water, which I sculled holding 'incorrectly' when 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 refusing PIG mum's prodding that I should go sit over the loo (I knew she just wanted another opportunity to gleefully force me to do everything myself,
-Hey, Carol should arrive soon, so fingers crossed I can bbl, else today I had UQ physio before Aunty Deana came and minded me for three hours. Toms I've got writers group, meaning Carol's gonna take me back home afterwards and Annette will come supervise my shower @ 4pm. Again, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. She still hasn't arrived yet; might as well continue ... i'll just break off suddenly when she announces her arrival.
-I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the 4WD, where she tootled me off to UQ for physio. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we also listened to some compilation disc from the Backstreet Boys all day, too. Anyways, while PIG mum drove, I kept both eyes closed and finished 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 @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-After coming outta the loo, my new physio students were already waiting for me! I've already forgotten their names, but physio today: twenty-five sit-to-stands, stepping and weight shifting @ the parallel bars, swordwork for Ela and two laps walking along hallway.
-When that finished, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us home. While she drove, Era helped Ela stretch for fifteen minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm 100 times, holding each for a count of five.
-Back home, I sat @ the computer and did my writers group homework. Aunty Deana arrived slightly before midday, and PIG mum left to go shopping somewhere.
-After I'd finished writing, I held Aunty Deana's hand and walked well over to the gobbling :P table for lunch. Huge thanks to Aunty Po Yee who'd made me some duck! PIG mum boiled some rice, added lotsa dearest dad's home-grown vegies and I practised being Chinese using that chopstick trainer girl. XD Oh, and I also drank one mug of yummy chocolate Nesquik holding the mug 'incorrectly'.
-When i'd finished lunch, I drank one mug of water holding the mug 'incorrectly' then held Aunty Deana's hand and walked well to the loo, where I did a stinky unspeakable.
-Back @ the gobbling :P table, I ate one bowl of grapes with chopsticks! Lol, me love the chopstick trainer girl dearest dad bought for me. XD
-Aunty Deana massaged Ela for near fifty minutes today; she also brings along her own equipment! She's got one piece of ivory tusk, and this pink thing that's actually a hair roller.
-When nature randomly called (the grapes were super-juicy!) Aunty Deana took me to the loo again, and once more just before 3pm, when PIG mum returned home.
-Cripes, Carol's running super-late today, isn't she? :S It's already nearly 4:20pm!
-Fingers crossed I can bbl, else toms:
-Writers group! I've done my homework, plus printed out Julia's to share with everyone~
-Carol will pick me up. PIG mum pays her thirty bucks for taking me home and having lunch together.
-Annette's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-And whaddya think my chances are of persuading dearest dad to take us out for dinner toms night? Well, it's always worth a try! Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 156

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 5319 steps today (ha, D2 reckons i'm more than half a normal person today; his report: 5319 steps also equals 145kcal or 2.22km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Release Love'. Righteo, events for today?
-Yay, awesome sleep last night! Actually, when nature called, 'twas already light outside, but I was too sleepy to see the time, just only noticed that horrid PIG mum had really hit the sack last night without giving me back the commode chair. >< I tried to fall back asleep again, and succeeded, only to get woken by dearest dad who was putting back the pot :P into the commode chair for me! Lol, he prolly reinstalled it for me after how PIG mum had gloated to him about how she didn't gimme it last night. Never mind, she's like that ... 8sigh*
-Anyways, after the pot :P trip @ 6:05am, I had 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.
-Daddy bear and I resumed happy snorings together, me waking briefly to use the pot :P once more and kiss dearest dad goodbye when he left for work around 7:45am.
-More happy snorings with Daddy bear, plus one/two more pot :P trips, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for one tinkle, just swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. Oh, and my monthlies arrived. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to brush teeth (poor Ela), then 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' when 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 fully against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and tootled me off to see Vincent the bloody physio. 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.
-Physio today: two/three attempts before staying seated, then stood entire session and practised holding a ball in between both hands. Stood on Erf's tiptoes for about one minute, Ela also pointlessly opened and closed loo door and held onto rail to finish.
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled us off to the Calamvale BBQ and Chinese restaurant for lunch! I chose another favourite, the fish fillet in sweetcorn sauce with rice, while PIG mum opted for the beef with egg noodles. We traded some fish and beef, but mine was super-yummy coz there was egg in the sauce!
-When I'd finished lunch, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us back to Warrigal Square. First, she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the Marigold butchers to buy some pork mince, then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk through Woolies and buy toilet wipes.
-Afterwards, she tootled us home, where dearest dad was eating lunch! I asked him please to lemme use the computer, but he refused, so I just walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table and sat down, where I read the book club novel for about ten minutes.
-Luckily, dad returned to work and I was able to return online just before 2pm, which means I'll be able to sit out the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to.
-Carol Lockwood's taking me to the first Toastmasters of 2014 tonight! We're in some new room, and I'm warm-up master!
-Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy a small meal back from Maccas for dinner~
-Toms: mid-morning UQ physio session with ... lol, I've already forgotten their names. XD
-Guess Aunty Deana will come supervise me for three hours; dunno what PIG mum'll do. As for me, I've gotta do my writers group homework about 'space'!
-Carol will come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And best of all, it's ice cream night toms night! Like I say every fortnight, a very little's better than none @ all! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Em. ^^

Monday Post 156b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 8827 (ha, D2 reckons I'm more than 0.75 of a normal person today XD); his new report: 8802 steps also equals ... sorry, D2's idiot owner forgot to note down his report in the first post. She'll try harder to remember toms. XD Anyways, continuing today's events?
-Before leaving, I took myself once slowly and safely to the loo then out to the 4WD, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Then dad drove us all the way out to Ipswich!
-Joni's devotional topic's "There's No Place Like Home "
--First stop was some information centre, where I visited the bathroom once. PIG mum also bought me this adorable koala sleeping on a pillow! I called him Ippy. ^^
-Given directions to some national park, we spent the rest of the afternoon wandering and looking @ animals. My favourite was definitely the wombat, but I was totally disappointed that the parents wouldn't lemme use Sparkless2 (my manual wheelchair) because goodness knows, I need to sit down to observe things properly! :o(
-Afterwards, we sat in the 4WD and ate the leftover potato salad that Aunty Catherine/Ping Yee had brought over for our Australia Day dinner. Which reminds me, after I publish the post about our family holiday trip last year, I must write one about how Australia Day and the ensuing public holiday was spent!
-After that, dearest dad tootled us home. PIG mum demanded that I shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum did nothing bar rant and Elf's AFO.
-Afterwards, I returned outside and read my book club novel until PIG mum had taken her shower and dearest dad called dinner.
-Using the awesome chopstick thingy dearest dad had bought for me, tonight I had the yummy rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown winter melon, some salmon, some beef and a little delicious egg and chives.
-Dinner was washed down with one mug of yummy lemon green tea - my cup for today to hold 'incorrectly', then I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back online.
-Cripes, nature's calling; I'll need the loo once more @ 8pm. Fingers crossed I can bbl with my final, final plodding total for Monday, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-Turns out Dr. Dr. Tai couldn't make it. :o(
-One more loo trip for me before our BBQ dinner. Of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything, but 'twas enough she walked behind me back to the gobbling :P table, meaning I wasn't @ any risk of letting 6he cruel and unfaithful God push me over.
-We had BBQ for dinner tonight! Very traditional Aussie, yeah? Only the rice bucket in me mourns no rice for dinner tonight ... XD
-Afterwards, I went over to the sofa, cuddled darling Bear Bear and watched the grand final!
-Yay for Warwrinka!! He won in four sets~

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 156b

Heylo again, and probably one final greeting for Saturday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2065, remembering that like 400 of those steps were plodded last night @ pole's. D2's final, final report for Saturday: 1931 steps also equals fifty-one kcal or 940m. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for Saturday?
-Luckily, PIG mum hadn't hit pigland upstairs yet when Annette announced her arrival four minutes early and let her in.
-Me, I waited until 4pm before going to the bathroom for my nice warm shower - 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 kindly helped with my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (Annette helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I shuffled several steps sideways for Annette to tie my shoelaces (she says she can't bend like all the other people who help me, coz she's got scoliosis), went to the loo for two tinkles, went over to wash and dry Era then let Annette Force me to walk out to the kitchen to prepare my arvo tea.
-Well, I made myself a half toastie with one full slice of cheese coz there wasn't any ham left! I also made myself one mug of yummy rice green tea 9and sucked the teabag once XD) which was my fifth and final mug for tonight to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Annette made herself some instant cappuccino, then sat and massaged Ela for thirty minutes, painting her black with gold spots today, because during the massage, I was watching all the Hunger Games DVD extras!
-She stopped massaging when dad arrived home and sent me to the loo @ 5:50pm. I realised she just wanted to leave early so stayed in the loo for three tinkles. Still, she left about two minutes early and will be back for a short shift next Thursday.
-Toms: again, just church, definitely nothing special. Will plaza food court be open for lunch toms? it's Australia Day, maybe not ...
-Bee and Joey are coming to visit me toms arvo, but joey's already said she can't make it. Hopefully Bee can find someone else and take me to the Lifeline bookfest! Again, though, it's Australia day, so (1) Will it be open, and if so, (2) Will their be a 25% surcharge for the books? Let's hope not! Anyways, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. When Aunty A announced her arrival @ 6:45pm, 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.
P.P.S. Joni's devotional topic's "Who's Stronger?"

Saturday Post 156

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1638 steps today (remembering that like 400 of those steps were plodded last night @ Pole's house for small group; D2 proudly reports that 1638 steps also equals forty-one kcal or 760m XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Heavenly Citizenship' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Get Ready To Move (2)'. Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!
-After dinner and one more loo trip, PIG mum tootled me off to Pole's house for small group! Turns out pole was pet sitting: she had this very excited pooch with her called Pumpkin!
-Nat led for the first time last night! We continued the study from previous week's; last night's was about healing. I got slightly upset when I shared with everyone about how that random gave me that pamphlet for a free Christian concert and church healing services but how PIG mum wouldn't take me, believing it was only a sham. Pole reckoned the same thing.
-Afterwards, someone found out that Nadal had won in straight sets! Poor Fed ...
-I asked Pole should I ring my dad and ask him to come pick me up; instead, she offered to drop me back home! On the trip back, I told her how in my old blog we'd (my parents and I) had been over @ their place watching the tennis, and how everyone bar me (and Matthew when I could make him) cheered for Federer. "I prolly just sat on Matthew to make him cheer for Djokovich," I laughed to Pole, "Remember, before he had his growth spurt, he was small and pliable." XD In return, Pole said she wouldn't be @ church toms, coz Joshels was taking her down the coast tonight to spend the long weekend! I reminded her to pack clean underwear, and was she gonna elope with him? XD "Of course not!" replied Pole. "Besides, even if I did, you'd be one of the few people I told before going!" Wow, i'm feeling privileged!! XD
-Back home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz.~
-Today: woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until5:45am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend the ten minutes until 5:55am 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, happy snorings with Daddy bear resumed, with me waking for the pot :P once more one hour later @ 6:45am.
-After PIG mum left for work, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-more happy sleepings with Daddy bear followed, plus two more pot :P trips, before RWhi arrived promptly @ 10am. I heard dad ask her how her party went, and she replied, "Great, but I got very sick afterwards." Later, when dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving, I laughed and told him rather evilly, "Rhi means 'sick' as in she got piss drunk". Then dad went back outside and confirmed with her! Yes, I was correct. XD
-After Rhi gave me fifteen more minutes, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles and she got me over, before Forcing me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Rhi who squirted some toothpaste for me; I also drank one full mug of water holding the mug 'incorrectly'.
-After going to the loo for several tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and finishing my mosly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, I went over to wash and dry Era before letting Rhi Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast.
-Were we outta eggs? Dad didn't make any for breakfast! Instead, Rhi buttered me two slices of toast and cooked one instant noodle for me. Yum, I can't remember the last time I had one! My weekly mug of white tea, sweetened with one spoonful of honey, was my second for today tohold 'incorrectly'.
-Rhi tried to get the Hunger Games DVD extras on for me, but couldn't manage it? Well, Roxana came around 11:20 to get her shoes back. XD
-At midday, Rhi walked behind me once to the loo, where I did a stinky unspeakable.
-When Pastor Grace arrived, Rhi let her in then went to tidy my room.
-I gave Pastor Grace all the history I knew about AIC and BCAC. Rhi got me to walk her out when she left and took me once more to the loo before I said my thanks and byes.
-I taked with both Aunty Lai and Aunty Nga on the phone before eating the bowl of yummy fried rice that Rhi left me, plus one mug of yummy rice green tea, which I held 'incorrectly' and sucked the teabag of once.
-At 1:45pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the computer, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-At 3pm, nature randomly called, and I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred again and not letting Him push me over.
-Annette should be coming around 4pm to supervise my shower.
-Toms; just church, nothing special. Fingers crossed I can get lunch @ Plaza (but wait, tomorrow's Australia Day; will anything be open?) and that janice/Bee will take me to the Lifeline Bookfest afterwards (but again, it's Australia Day toms; will it be open?)!
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-When Aunty Lucia announced her arrival two minutes early, 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 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, got very lightly creamed, had another tinkle. Aunty Lucia rekitted me, and I had one more tinkle when she was repinning D2 back onto my pants for me.
-I let Aunty Lucia Force me to walk back out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, my lunch leftovers. PIG mum kindly made me one mug of rice green tea, which was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly' and I also sucked the teabag once. XD
-Before Aunty Lucia left, I went to the loo once more. Actually, nature randomly called again @ 5:50pm and 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.
-I'm off to Pole's for small group tonight!
-Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total, coz i'm not going out. Rhi comes from 10am till 1pm, before Annette comes from 4pm till 6pm.

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4744 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 117kcal or 1.98km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Get Ready To Move (1)' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's only seven but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-NINE MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves around 5pm!!!! But just noting down that I had a great sleep last night (nature didn't call until 5:55am, when the noisy garbage truck rumbled down the road beside ours to begin it's tipping duties) my last UQ physio with Josh and Trent (think they're both going to the Mater next), lunch @ Fasta Pasta Springwood with several of the church aunties who come over Saturday morning and teach me Canto translation) then ouchy pincushion practice XD with Dr. Lin. Aunty Lucia will come supervise my shower soon, then I'm off to Pole's for small group tonight!

Thursday Post 178c

Good evening, and one definite final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Things Above' and secondly, Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 7180. D2's final, final report for Thursday: 7180 steps also equals 192kcal or exactly 3km. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-After dearest dad returns home from work, he randomly takes us out to IKEA! So a quick change of clothes for me, then we're off! Thanks to dad who helped me buckle my seatbelt; 'twas dark when we left, and you know one of the disabilities the cruel and unfaithful God has abandoned me with is crappy night vision ... :o9
-Again, alas, PIG mum wouldn't allow me to use Sparkless2, but 'twas enough that she kept her hand lightly touching my back as I walked.
-We had dinner first @ the IKEA 'restaurant', although I maintain it's not a restaurant but just a fancy restaurant! XD As always, the parents got two dishes between three people; dad ate one all by himself, PIG mum bagged herself a heaped 2/3, leaving me with barewly 1/3, but oh well; 'twas still yummy. Also, I've decided: smoked salmon's disgusting! XD Dad and I both enjoyed white tea (even though dad tipped prolly less than 1/3 a packet of sugar into mine), while PIG mum just drank water; she doesn't drink anything caffeinated after 3pm coz if she does, she for some reason can't fall asleep afterwards?
-Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk through the rest of IKEA; dad was looking for a new sofa! I tried a wooden framed rocking armchair, but told PIG mum later, "My hips feel tired from all that rocking." Lol, turns out I was supposed to keep both legs touching the floor when I rocked! XD
-Before returning home, PIG mum took me once more to the loo. Idiot Elf was starting to hurt, but Erf kicked her and said, "Oi, behave, I don't want PIG mum to haveta put you back into a better position," and amazingly, she listened! XD
-Thanks to PIG mum this time who helped me with my seatbelt for the drive home.
-Back home, I returned online. The parents are watching the tennis, Warwrinka's playing Berdych!
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with Trent and Josh.
-Then i'm gonna have Fasta Pasta lunch (Springwood) @ 12:45pm with the aunties who teach me translation!
-Aunty lucia will come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to pole's place for small group toms night! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Thursday post 178b

Heylo again and probably one final greeting for Thursday! looks like TWFT has forgotten to send me a daily devotional, so I'll just note down that my new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2595 (D2's new report: 2439 steps also equals sixty-nine kcal or 1.08km XD) and continue with today's events?
-After I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), I let her gleefully FORCE :( 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. I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Suddenly, the doorbell rang! I knew PIG mum was stomping around upstairs, most likely talking to Jane, so I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and called, "Good morning, who's there?", rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. "It's me, Roxanna," came the reply. I opened the door, welcomed Roxana in, then gently held her hand and walked well back to the gobbling :P table, where I quickly wolfed down the rest of my Weetbix.
-After one more loo trip, Roxana and I hit Garbo! I was rather grumpy that we got stuck along Logan Rd., 'twas already past 9am! ><"
-After finding a parking spot, I held Roxanne's hand and walked up well to the library. Grabbing Orson Scott Card's 'Shadow Puppets', I happily read for one hour, but was crossly told off by some librarian to put my feet of the sofa. XD
-The same librarian came and told me to bugger off (in more polite wording, of course XD) come 10:30am, because the children's storytelling was starting! Luckily, Roxana had just returned with Sparkless2, so off we went.
-After one more loo trip (we just used the library meeting room one), our first stop was to buy bread. I picked out a bacon bun and then a teriyaki bacon bun!
-Next, we went downstairs to Dick Smith's, where I updated on an Ipad.
-Afterwards, we went to Jayjays (where Roxana bought sth for her daughter, who suffers from depression and needs medicine! I also saw this cool tank top that just read BLAH BLAH BLAH. XD), visited the Japan Store (where I practised reading my katakana XD) and went to the Reject Shop, where I bought a birthday card for dearest dad. The cashier was Aboriginal and had a very long name!
-Final stop before lunch: ice cream! :D I tried passion fruit flavour 9yuck), before finally deciding on three wishes: simple vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. :o) While I munched away, Roxana showed me Facebook photos of her family. The good news is that her hubby's finally managed to get a passport, now he just needs a visa before he can return to Brisbane to visit his family.
-Back upstairs we went for lunch. I was PISSED that the KFC Krusher machine wasn't working, AGAIN! >< Roxana got the same as me, but with water rather than orange juice.
-After one last loo trip, 'twas home time. Roxana says she'll come back next week, and will try to fit in a trip into toys 'R' us.
-Back home, I went inside for my nice warm shower - 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 had one tinkle before Roxana flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed, had another tinkle. Roxana rekitted me, and I had one last tinkle when Roxana was repinning D2 back onto my pants for me.
-Roxana and I held hands and I walked out well to the computer table, where I opened some parcel that someone had sent me. 'Twas another digi-walker!
-Before leaving, Roxana took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. She's taking me out again next fortnight, and hopefully, Anna will have finished training and can join us!
-PIG mum arrived home shortly afterwards. I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and welcomed her back in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Then I rang dearest dad to let him know PIG mum was safely home~
-We had arvo tea together: half the yummy bacon bun each. PIG mum was fussy and said she didn't like the green herb garnish sitting on top. The mug of yummy rice green tea (I sucked the teabag once XD) was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back online.
-Doubt I'll return after dinner, me almost over the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-late morning UQ physio with Trent and Josh
-Afterwards, I think PIG mum and I are meeting up with the aunties who teach me Canto translation for lunch @ the Springwood Fasta Pasta!
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And i'm off to pole's for small group toms night.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. At 5:45pm, I walked 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.

Thursday Post 178

Good afternoon! For some reason, TWFT hasn't sent me a devotional, but today I've been hard @ work plodding 2299 steps, which D2 proudly reports as also equaling fifty-five kcal or 950m. XD Anyways, events for today?
-Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7am 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.
~Can't remember did I fall asleep again before dearest dad left for work (don't think so), but within ten minutes of him leaving PIG mum was poking 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, already chucking a random cow @ me. Sheesh, the day's barely even started! >< Still, I recognised that 'twas just the cruel and unfaithful God trying to ruin my day before it'd even already started, so I just totally ignored Him, rose above his near-overwhelming hatred and decided I'd try my best for a great day out.
-Arvo tea time, hopefully bbl, coz I'm still owed ONE HOUR and NINE MINUTES online!11

Wednesday post 178c

Good evening, and one definite final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4715; D2's final, final report for Wednesday: 4715 steps also equals ninety-nine kcal or 1.96km. Lol, I'm sure I'll crack 2km some day. XD Anyways, final, final events for Wednesday?
-I tootled happily back online, getting my Facebook fix until PIG mum tumbled downstairs, gleefully and immediately booted me offline.
-First, she gleefully FORCED :( poor Em to plod two laps side-walking for her.
-Next, she gleefully forced poor Ela on 40+ minutes of exercises for her.
-Thirdly, she gleefully forced poor Elf to endure a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch for her.
-Finally, she combined with dad to gleefully FORCE :( poor Em to plod 200 steps on that manual beast. Which meant I needed a total set change of clothes afterwards, of course.
-Dinner afterwards: the yummy rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown lettuce and pumpkin, some sweet potato and about four wee slices of pork. Maybe some fish?
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of dearest dad's rather disgusting pumpkin soup, then I happily read my book club novel, reaching page 150 @ 9:10pm.
-Before returning online, I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the toilet first, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: For the first time in three weeks, I should be hitting Garbo! Gosh, I hope Jane from Epic won't suddenly ring and say she's booked me in for an interview!
-Also fingers crosed that PIG mum'll FINALLY lemme have an ice cream cone with Roxana toms @ Garbo! I've explained before; I just wanna try out their flavours! XD
-Finally, fingers crossed that dearest dad will take PIG mum and I out for dinner somewhere tonight! Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Haveta buy dearest dad a birthday present, too! It's his birthday come the 28th!!

-I happily read my own fanfiction until Carol announced her arrival about four minutes early, when 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 own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm 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 helped with only Elf's AFO). Then I headed over to the loo for two tinkles, Carol came to help with my shoes and laces, I went over to wash and dry Era then let Carol Force me to walk out to prepare my half toastie for arvo tea.
-*slightly cranky* I remember when PIG mum decided I could only have half a toastie instead of one, but when did she ban me from having mayo?! After i protestED, PIG mum let Carol squirt three minisculr drops for me. *sigh*
-After cleaning the bathroom, Carol sat and massaged Ela for thirty-five minutes, painting her meat pie brown with tomato sauce red dots; that's what she's having for dinner tonight.
-At 5:55pm, Carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. I won't see her until next Wednesday, coz Sunday's Australia Day, meaning the Australia Day Public holiday will be on Monday!
-I seriously doubt I'll return online tonight, considering I've already exceeded the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-Roxana's taking me to Garbo! :D It's been three weeks since I've enjoyed any KFC ... XD
-Will I have that job interview with that architecture guy or not? Lol, PIG mum'll know.
-Fingers crossed I can persuade dearest dad to take us out for dinner toms night!
-Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 178

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3182 steps (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling sixty-six kcal or 1.32km XD) and secondly, TWFT topc's 'Getting Them From Childhood to Adulthood (2)'. Anyways, events for today?
~I used the pot :P once last night and once again around 6:30am. Then I spent the ten minutes until 6:40am 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.
-Happy snorings with Daddy bear resumed until PIG mum came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work. I used the pot :P once more, and after she'd gone,didn't bother trying to fall back asleep coz I knew PIG mum would be poking me with "fifteen more minutes."
-Sure enough, less than ten minutes after dearest dad left, PIG mum came in, and after fifteen more minutes, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over 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.
-PIG mum tried to get me to go sit over the loo before leaving, but I refused coz I didn't feel like doing a stinky unspeakable @ all. Instead, she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and tootled me of to UQ for physio. We listened to Linkin Park's 'Hybrid Theory' all day, and of course, PIG mum gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, too. While she drove, 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 fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-Only there wasn't any parking available! PIG mum walked me in, then left to find parking, while I waited until Margit had finished on the phone before asking her could she please ring upstairs and send down eith Josh or Trent to come get me.
-Trent came, and after one quick loo trip for me, physio today was card work for Ela, reaching work for Era, pelvic tilting, six laps walking along hallway and stepping work @ the parallel bars.
-When PIG mum came to collect me, she was PISSED: turns out that Jane had rung to postpone the appointment! Now I was meeting her @ 3pm, not midday. XD She'd immediately tried ringing Cathay to see if Aunty Deana could come back and mind me, but nope, she was already busy. PIG mum did, however, find Carol and tell her she didn't need to come until 5pm.
-When PIG mum tootled us home, Era helped Ela stretch for fifteen minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm 100 times, holding each for a count of five.
-Back home, I enjoyed the sweet onion teriyaki chicken sub PIG mum had bought me from Subway for lunch, though I was rather disgusted that she for some reason HEAVILY WATERED DOWN my yummy chocolate Nesquik! >< Tastes pretty ... ugh. :o(
-After lunch, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back to the computer, and I plopped online.
-At 2:45pm, I'm getting changed for a job interview! Fingers crossed I can finally have a steady paid job!
-Meaning Carol will just come from 5pm till 6pm to supervise my shower.
-Doubt I can return online tonight, coz I'll have almost exceeded the PISSY two hours that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-Roxana's taking me out to Garbo! :D Sadly, Anna can't join us, coz she's got some kinda training on, but fingers crossed that PIG mum'll FINALLY lemme postpone my ice cream to have a single cone with Roxana toms! Really, I just wanna try one free ice cream flavour before choosing another to have my waffle cone with. XD
-And fingers crossed that dearest dad'll take us out for dinner again! Oh, wait: may haveta buy dad's birthday present toms; his birthday's on the 28th!
-Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Edit: Jane rang and bailed out. >< Now I'm meeting the guy toms arvo? Well, third time lucky, I guess! Luckily, Carol has said she's free to come back from 4pm till 6pm.

Tuesday Post 155c

Good evening and one definite final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Law and Liberty and secondly, Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4004. Lol, I'm just over four grand. XD D2's final, final report for Tuesday: 4004 steps also equals 102kcal or 1.66km. XD righteo, final, final events for tonight?
-PIG mum gleefully forced me on a whole bunch of stupid exercises (standing calf stretch for fifteen minutes, 40+ minutes of stupid exercises for poor Ela and 200 steps of that manual beat) before dinner: the yummy rice, lotsa lettuce, lotsa pumpkin and some of PIG mum's meat brisket.
-Then I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the sofa, where we all watched the tennis together! Well, dearest dad slept, while PIG mum screeched away; now I remember why she's banished elsewhere doing origin matches! XD
-When the match reached the 5th set, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo once more then walked myself slowly and safely back to the computer, both times rising abovove the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: 10am UQ physio with Trent and Josh. PIG mum's gonna buy me Subway for lunch coz afterwards, Jane's taking me out to see some potential employer! Fingers crossed I finally laid a paid job!!
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-And toms night's ice cream night, but fingers crossed PIG mum'll FINALLY lemme postpone it to have with Roxana Thursday morning @ Garbo!! like I've promised, I'm only gonna get a single cone!1
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 155b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Tuesday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 3131. D2's probable final, final report for Tuesday: 3131 steps also equals eighty-two kcal or 1.3km. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for Tuesday?
-When Annette announced her arrival four/six minutes early, 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 foe me - I washed and dried 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 kindly helped with my back, Era and both calves) and mostly rekitted myself (Annette helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I shuffled sideways for several steps for Annette to help me tie my shoelaces, before heading over to the loo for two tinkles.
-After washing and drying Era, I let Annette Force me to walk out to the kitchen to prepare my arvo tea.
-The mug of yummy peppermint tea was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'. I also enjoyed the second half of my lunch: yummy sweet and sour pork. I even felt more Chinese coz I was using that chopstick holder that Annette bought for me! XD
-After Annette cleaned the bathroom, she sat and massaged Ela for about forty minutes, painting her gold with silver/crystal spots today.
-Before leaving five minutes early, I let Annette Force me to walk once more to the loo and back to the computer.
-Personally, I'm just disappointed I can't reach Fiona; we were gonna see a movie together! :o(
-I won't return online after dinner tonight, coz I've already exceeded the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-Mid-morning UQ physio with Trent and Josh
-Then Jane's taking me out to some job interview somewhere! PIG mum says she'll buy me some Subway for lunch while I'm doing physio; hope it'll go well!
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.
-And toms night's ice cream night, but will try AGAIN (I'm persevering, you gotta gimme that much!) to lemme postpone my ice cream night to have with Roxanne on Thursday when we hit Garbo together! Which reminds me; I'd better ask Anna if she's free for lunch together~ Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 155

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2627 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling sixtykcal or 1.09km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Getting Them From Childhood to Adulthood (1). Anyways, events for today?
~Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:40am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:50am 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.
-Happy snorings with Daddy bear resumed until dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work. I used the pot :P once more, and after she'd gone,resumed happy Snorings with Daddy Bear and Hoot Hoot.
-More happy snorings with followed, plus @ least two more pot :P trips, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I swung myself over to the pot :P once more for two tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum was relieved; I hadn't done one since Saturday for her. XD Anyways, she 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 that I drank for PIG mum holding 'incorrectly' when she was upstairs changing, and continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I didn't really mind that horrid PIG mum gleefully forced only poor Ela to prepare my breakfast for me because I was sitting and could concentrate. I've grown pretty good @ blocking out all the taunts Satan/the cruel and unfaithful God sends me everytime Ela tries to accomplish something.
-Before leaving, I went and did my stinky unspeakable. Of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but I also fully leaned against the side rail and finished my mostly silent conversation to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD. We listened to Damien Leith's 'Chapter Seven' album all day, and of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, too.
-When PIG mum tootled me off to Vincent the bloody physio's for my torture session, 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 between both hands with Ela bent. She opened loo door twice and uselessly held onto rail; also stood on just Elf for nearly one minute.
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled me off to the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant for lunch! I enjoyed half of the delicious sweet and sour pork with pineapple for lunch; PIG mum had charsiu in noodle soup. Hey, if I can have lunch there next week, do you think she'll lemme eat one bowl myself (she bagged away half for arvo tea today) if I get something with noodle soup like she did today?
-While she was putting things back inside the 4WD, I chatted with the youngest daughter (Katie?), who told me that she was gonna study event management @ TAFE this year!
-After taking me once more to the loo, PIG mum tootled us back home, while Era helped Ela stretch again for ten minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five. Actually, PIG mum noticed that one car door hadn't been shut properly, and pulled over to rectify that. We were in Kyabra St.! How come they're so fancy that they get their own street name??
-Back home, I plopped online and PIG mum hit pigland upstairs.
-Toms: mid-morning UQ physio with those two guys. Trent and Josh, maybe?
-Hopefully PIG mum will get me some Subway for lunch because then Jane will take me to see some potential employer! Cripes, I hope I can get a paid job!
-I might be able to return online briefly when Annette leaves but doubt I can come back online after dinner, me having already exceeded the PISSY two hour time limit that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to. Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 155d

One final good evening! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 6275. D2's final, final report: 6275 steps also equals 138kcal or 2.61km. Righteo, final, final events for Monday?
-Right after I finished Monday Post 155c, I went to the loo once more. Zero thanks to horrid PIG mum who gleefully forced me to repeat the sitting to standing procedure once for her because she said I pushed back in the chair, and of course, she gleefully forced me to do everything myself, but 'twas enough that she walked back with me to the computer, meaning I wasn't @ any risk of being pushed over by the cruel and unfaithful God.
-Toms: late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. >< I just take heart that if I survive this one session, I won't haveta see him till next week!
-Fingers crossed PIG mum'll take me for lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant; I've got a sudden craving for sweet and sour pork/chicken (especially if it comes with pineapple!) XD
-And Annette's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday post 155c

Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 6092 (ha, D2 reckons i'm more than half a normal person today; his new report for Monday: 6092 steps also equals 132kcal or 2.54km XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'How Much Will It Cost?' Anyways, continuing today's events?
-I mostly rekitted myself 9Carol helped with only Elf's AFO). Then I went to the loo for two tinkles before I let Carol Force me to walk out to the kitchen to get my arvo tea.
-The mug of yummy rice green tea (must ask PIG mum if I can buy some more peppermint tea this Thursday with Roxana @ Garbo, I ran out after yesterday) was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly', I also enjoyed some of that sago pudding thing that Vincent the physio randomly got for me when PIG mum and I bumped into him and Kat jie jie yesterday @ Plaza!
-After Carol cleaned the bathroom and PIG mum came downstairs to yap @ Carol, 'twas already 6pm! Well, actually, Carol left four minutes early, but she arrived four minutes early, too, so I'm not complaining.
-I returned briefly online and listened to Nine's news; unfortunately PIG mum spoiled the fun when she gleefully booted me offline so she could force me to do stupid exercises for her.
-First, she gleefully FORCED :( me to plod two laps side-walking for her.
-Next, she gleefully forced mostly poor Ela on 25+ minutes of stupid exercises for her.
-Then she gleefully forced poor Elf to endure a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch for her. While that was going on, I watched Federer playing Tsonga.
-Finally, the parents combined to gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 200 steps on that manual i-care thing.
-After one more loo trip and a change of tee, dinner was the yummy rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, beans and some other vegetable, some silver perch, about one Chinese mushroom and a little of PIG mum's delicious meat brisket.
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of dearest dad's hairy melon soup, before I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back to the computer.
-Anyways, nature's calling now, so fingers crossed I can brb after one final loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

monday Post 155b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4916; D2's new report: 4916 steps also equals 103kcal or 2.05km. XD Righteo, continuing tonight's events?
-After one quick loo trip (of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself), PIG mum tootled me out to the Underwood Coffee Club to meet Kylie, Mel and Bentley!
-Tara and someone else came along also! I couldn't place her, but after I asked her to please take off her sunnies, I saw 'twas Nicole Guy!
-Alas, horrid PIG mum wouln't lemme have eggs benedict!! >< instead, I chose an open grill (ham, cheese and pineapple) with chips and salad and drank a chocolate thickshake, yum! Mel had an open grill also, only with avocado and chicken (she had hers as a ciabatta (sp?) bun, I chose a wrap. Someone else had an iced coffee.
-We all just yakked. Bentley's still @ Beenleigh Special School, while Nicole has been doing lotsa traveling and will start a government admin job soon! Tara teaches music @ some private high schhool and her hubby's of German descent while Kylie's fiancee manages a Pizza Capers somewhere!
-I rang PIG mum to come pick me up just before 5pm. Kylie says she's not free to catch up for my birthday coz she's getting married over the Easter weekend, but if we don't see each other again for the rest of 2014, we'll catchup for Christmas! Actually, hopefully we'll catchup for our Canterbury ten year reunion just after my birthday!
--We got home slightly before 5pm; when Carol announced her arrival about four minutes early, 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 own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era - argh, fingers crossed I can bbl, coz I'm still owed FORTY-SIX MINUTES online!!!! ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3642 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling eighty-three kcal or 1.52km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Getting Through Together' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY MINUTES online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!! But just noting down that today I had physio @ UQ, THEN WENT TOgOODWILL oRTHOPAEDICS TO - sorry, shrieking! >< - get my boot fixed, before PIG mum and I enjoyed one plate of sushi each @ the Sushi Train. At 3pm, I'm meeting Kylie, Mel and Bentley for arvo tea @ the Underwood Coffee Club!! :D Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 5pm and I'm grumpy coz Chicago Fire most prolly won't air tonight coz the Australian Open's still playing, huh. >< Toms I have a torture session with Vincent the bloody physio, but hopefully PIG mum'll take me for lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant afterwards! And it's Annete coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm.  Anyways, hopefully bbl @ 6pm, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 155d

One final good evening!  Whoops, nature randomly called and I used the loo once more @ 8:30pm instead. XD Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 6674 (D2's final, final report for Sunday: 6557 steps also equals 162kcal or 2.78km XD) and secondly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's now seven. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-Like I said earlier, nature randomly called @ 8:30pm, and so I took myself once more 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.
-Toms: mid-morning UQ physio with ... lol, I've forgotten her name and only remember that she's thirty years old! XD
-Originally, I was gonna have lunch with all the aunties who teach me Canto translation on Saturdays @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant, only Aunty Ming suddenly rang tonight and says she can't make it! Instead, we're meeting @ Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong on Friday instead.
-So fingers crossed PIG mum'll take me back for lunch somewhere like The Sushi Train instead!
-Coz @ 3pm, I'm meeting Kylie, Mel and Bentley for arvo tea @ the Underwood Coffee Club! *drools at the prospect of a thickshake ...* XD
-Meaning I'll have two things to remind PIG mum of toms: (1) tell Carol not to come until 5pm and (2) ring Goodwill to organise an appointment for my AFO, which needs repairing.
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Suddenly, nature randomly called again @ 9:10pm, but I took myself slowly and safely to the loo and back once more, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Sunday Post 155c

Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 6391 (D2's new report: 6391 steps also equals 154kcal or 2.67km XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Supernatural Encouragement'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?
-While we shared our bowl of dessert, we yakked away. I remembered to let Pole and Leanne do most of the yakking; PIG mum's bitched @ me enough that I talk too much. Have I said yet? Leanne's going with Peggy, Esther and Yvonne to Japan in April, while Pole will go with Joshels' family over to Europe!
-Afterwards, Pole tootled us home. Did you know, Pole's opened her own physio practice! I suggested she name it 'Pole Physio Plus' (me know how to use alliteration, ha. XD) but she's named it sth boring like 'Useful Physio'. Lol, Vincent the bloody physio's 'Unique Physio's more interesting than her name! XD
-They left after Pole drove me back home. Uncle Alan and Aunty Emily wandered over asking about our garden, and I wanted them to come inside so I could thank them for the cool souvenirs they'd gotten me, only they didn't come inside. Oh well, will haveta try asking PIG mum again please to gimme Uncle Alan's Whatsapp number.
-PIG mum booted me offline and demanded I shower for her. Obviously, I washed and rinsed my own hair, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum helped with nothing bar Elf's AFO. Only that gives her the right to say she 'showered' me! *sigh* Canto culture's mighty confusing ... Actually, poor Ela was spared from having to wash Era and other body parts, which meant poor Era didn't get a wash today, but that's okay, coz she wasn't really dirty anyway.
-Back outside, I happily read our book club novel out aloud until dinner was served. The yummy rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown beans, one/two wee slices of yummy onion and two/three small chunks of pork. Unfortunately, the parents randomly chucked a complete cow @ me, meaning I'm definitely singing myself to sleep tonight, SCREW counting. ><
-Dinner was washed down with one mug of yummy rice green tea that I made myself and held 'incorrectly'.
-Then I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back to the computer.
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm after one more loo trip with the final, final events for tonight, my final, final plodding total for Sunday plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday post 155b

Heylo again! Firstly, the new spam count for the week's now seven, and secondly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 5856. Ha, ID2 reckons I'm more than half a normal person today; his new report: 5856 steps also equals 140kcal or 2.45km. XD Anyways, events for today?
-I used the pot :P once last night and once more around 6:05am this morning, before spending 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.
-More happy snorings for Daddy bear and I followed, plus one more pot :P trip for me @ 7:30am, right before PIG mum comes and pokes me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she comes back, I swing myself over 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 and brush teeth (poor Ela), before she gleefully FORCES :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast is two yummy Weetbix with the smallest amount of honey ever, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water, which I drain for PIG mum holding 'incorrectly' while she's upstairs changing. I also continue 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 out to the 4WD and tootled us off to church. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; she also wouldn't lemme listen to anything but that's okay, I just closed both eyes and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-At church, I went downstairs to the loo once, then PIG mum left me with Aunty katherine @ the church library.
-Today, we watched the testimony of this pastor who also does magic tricks! He'd perform the magic first, then seguewa into Jesus.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo. I grabbed some morning tea (two little rectangular sponge cake slices and two quarter triangles of bread, one with tuna and corn, the other with ham and cheese) before taking a seat.
-Before heading upstairs to the English service, I said heylo to Leanne's granny~ :o)
-For worship today, I sang everything, plus the harmony for two songs, just meant absolutely nothing.
-Dear uncle/pastor Chong spoke today. That's strange, I remember Pastor Chris saying last week that Liam was coming today?
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us off to Plaza for lunch.
-I was hoping for a medium bacon deluxe meal, considering I haven't had any chips this week yet. Trust PIG mum to limit me to just a small cheeseburger, small chips, and I shared a carrot and apple juice with her.
-Afterwards, she tootled us home, I went once more to the loo (of course, she gleefully forced me to do everything myself) 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.
-I asked PIG mum was she gonna let Pole/Leanne inside when they arrived. Hearing no response, when somebody knocked, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and opened it, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-'Twas Leanne! She walked behind me back to the computer, where we just chatted. She's going to Japan in April with Peggy, esther and vonne in April!
-After we'd chatted for awhile, Pole still hadn't arrived. PIG mum gave me my mobile, and I tried ringing her. Only 'Ada' is right before 'April', and I accidentally rang Aunty A instead! XD
-Luckily, she was having a meeting with Pole then, and passed the phone over. Pole said she'd come by 3:30pm.
-So Leanne and I continued chatting. Apparently, her grandma was very feisty when she was young!
-When Pole finally arrived, I went once more to the loo, then she tootled us off to Just Soy Cafe!
-Pole walked behind me down to the Cafe. For some reason, we shared one between three! You can choose three toppings per bowl, so Pole chose fruit, Leanne chose sweet potato balls and I chose shiramataku dough.
-Argh, PIG mum's demanding I shower for her now, poor Ela. >< Well, fingers crossed I can bbl, coz I'm still owed FORTY-FIVE MINUTES online!!1
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 155

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4856 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 116kcal or 2.03km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Seek God - Not Things!' and thirdly, the spam count for the weekend's only six but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY MINUTES after Leanne leaves!!! But just noting down that I only had church this morning, definitely nothing special. Aunty Katherine and I watched some testimony about some pastor who also did magic tricks, then dear Uncle/Pastor Chong spoke for English service. PIG mum got me one small fries and one cheeseburgr from Hungry Jacks, and Leanne will come visit me this arvo! Toms I've got UQ physio @ 10am, before having lunch with all the Aunties who teach me translation @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant, before I'm meeting Kylie, Mel and Bentley for arvo tea @ the Coffee Club!! Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 155b

Heylo again, and probably one final greeting for Saturday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2580, remembering that like 400 of those steps were plodded last night. D2's potential final, final report for Saturday: 1725 steps also equalsseventy-six kcal or 980m. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for Saturday?
-Strange, Carol usually announces her arrival exactly @ 4pm! How come she didn't today?? By 4:15pm, I realised she must've forgotten, and asked PIG mum please to pass me the phone so I could ring CODA's on-call number. Instead, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over and get it myself. I rang the number, but nobody answered; I just left a message then returned online. It wasn't until 4:30 that Louise rang back, telling me that silly Carol had simply forgotten to come. XD
-When Carol finally did arrive, 'twas 4:50pm! 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 - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carol who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-I had one tinkle before Carol flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, had another tinkle, then got creamed. Carol rekitted me, and I had one final tinkle when she was repinning D2 back onto my pants for me.
-Carol and I held hands and I walked out well to the gobbling :P table with her.
-Aevo tea was the usual half toastie, plus one mug of yummy peppermint tea, the last one for today I could hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Carol sat and very gently massaged Ela for ages. PIG mum came downstairs to yak @ Carol; she also kindly turned on nine's news for me.
-At 6:45pm, Carol took me once more to the loo before I signed her off, said my thanks and byes. She's just picked up a new French homestay boy (well, not really boy, he's twenty-one) and they're all just having leftovers for dinner tonight. I'm not seeing her next week; indeed, I won't see her until our first Toastmasters meeting on the 28th!
-When Aunty A announced her arrival, 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.
-Toms: again, just church, definitely nothing special. Fingers crossed I can get some lunch @ Plaza afterwards, then OLeanne and hopefully Pole are coming to visit me in the arvo! Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Joni's devotional topic's 'Jeremy'.

Saturday Post 155

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 1085 steps today (remembering that like 400 of those steps were plodded last night; D2 proudly reports that 1085 steps also equals thirty-two kcal or 400m XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's "The Enemy's Strategy" and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'A Spiritual Check-Up (4). Righteo, let's start off with last night's events first?
-I'm pretty sure PIG mum gleefully forced poor Ela on lotsa stupid exercises for her and poor Elf on a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch for her before we had dinner. After one more loo trip (where, of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself), dad tootled me off to Ray's for small group.
-After following me up the stairs, dad said to ring him when small group had finished, and left.
-Last night was just relaxing; we didn't do a bible study or anything because the ignite conference had just finished. Ben and Jeff shared about the conference, then everybody shared about something and somebody prayed for them. I shared about resuming physio, and prayed for Nat, while Lana prayed for me.
-Then we ate lollies and played games! First, we played Taboo; I was useless coz I kept forgetting which team I was in and kept correctly guessing the other team's words. XD
-After that, we played some card game ... mafia? Ray led that game; I kinda tuned out and started playing Candy Crush and Pet Rescue Saga. XD
-At 9:45pm I decided I'd better call dad to get me; PIG mum had to work toms, after all!
-Thanks to dearest dad who helped me buckle my seatbelt before driving us home; amongst other things, the cruel and unfaithful God has abandoned me with crappy night vision.
-Back home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz~
-Today: woohoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:15am, and after one pot :P trip I was almost asleep with Daddy bear again when I heard dearest coming downstairs to use the massage char @ 5:25am; I then spent the ten minutes till 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.
-Happy snorings with Daddy bear resumed until PIG mum came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work. I used the pot :P once more, and after she'd gone, continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the angel/saint for another ten minutes, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-More happy snorings with Daddy bear followed, plus two more pot :P trips, before Barb arrived @ 10am. She tried to get me up right away, but I refused to budge until I had enjoyed fifteen more minutes. XD
-After using the pot :P once more for @ least three tinkles, Barb got me kitted, then I gently held her hand and walked over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. Thanks to Barb who squirted out some toothpaste for me.
-After drinking one mug of water holding the cup 'incorrectly', I went to the loo for two/three tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-That done, I went over to wash and dry Era, before I gently held Barb's hand and walked well out to the gobbling :P table.
-Thanks to dearest dad who left me half a slice of ham and egg each; I reminded Barb how to cook the bread yummy, she passed me one slice of cheese and I made myself one yummy toastie, which Barb cut into two rectangles for me.I also savoured my weekly mug of white tea, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, my second for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-At 11:30, Barb gently massaged Ela for forty-five minutes, using just her hands. We just yakked, and while she tells me that she doesn't have any grandkids yet, she's got two grand dogs. XD
-At 12:30pm, Barb took me once to the loo for two/three tinkles and made me one mug of warm milo, my third for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After not reaching Aunty Lai, I rang and spoke with Aunty Nga, who told me that their pet turtles are very small and fit into the palm of your hand.
-Barb cooked fried rice for me (I remembered to tell her about my refusal of celery XD) and took me once more to the loo before leaving, just as both parents arrived home! She says I've become much more stable since the last time I saw her. :o)
-Lunch was one small (but full!) bowl of rice, washed down with one mug of just water, my fourth to hold 'incorrectly' coz PIG mum had wandered elsewhere.
-Then I walked myself slowly and safely over to the computer, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Carol Lockwood will come supervise my shower in about twenty minutes.
-And Aunty A's coming over for dinner! Lol, originally, dad got me to ring her mobile. I was like, "Do you want Aunty A to kill you? She doesn't turn that mobile on unless she's on call, and if you dare disturb her and scare her like that ..." only dad was like, "No, she leaves her mobile on now, so she can Whatsapp with Christy jie and Fiona!" So I tried, and there was no answer, but suddenly, she rang back, and when she heard my voice, thought dad was driving! XD
-Toms: just church, nothing special. Fingers crossed that I can get some lunch @ Plaza afterwards, and hopefully, Leanne and Pole will come visit me in the arvo! Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
