Sunday Post 157

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 5527 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 128kcal or 2.38km XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Faith'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Write Down Your Vision' and fourthly, the spam count for the week's just one. Anyways, let's start off with yesterday's events first!
~ When Lockwood 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.
-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.
-After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, I head out to the garage, yelling to PIG mum, who's presumably in pigland upstairs somewhere, "Mum! Can you please drive me to Aunty Katie's place now?" Instead, PIG mum tumbles downstairs and asks Carol to please drop me off there instead!
-Thanks to Carol who helps me buckle my seatbelt. I give her directions on where the So residence is, only when we arrive, it's only like 4:23pm! "Oh, we're early," says Carol, "Let's go around the block instead first." One long round later, it's past 4:30 and I press their doorbell.
-Uncle David answers; I apologise for not being able to take my shoes off, stamp then on the welcome mat then head inside and sit down into the dining room, where Aunty Katie's still whipping up some food.
-I'm the first to arrive; Yuk Yan appears next. She gives me her mobile number, then we take a selfie together, which I immediately share onto Facebook.
-More people atart arriving, like Thomas, Daph, Karis and baby Alisa!
-After about twenty people are here, Aunty Katie hold Ela and walks me over to the lounge room, where everybody introduces themselves. The air con turns me into a Popsicle, but luckily Aunty Katie brings down a grey woolly jacket which she drapes over my shoulders.
-When everyone's introduced themselves, we start playing games! The first game was coming up with four word phrases that start with the word horse/'ma; in Canto. The only word I contributed was 'Matthew' ('ma tai fok yum)' XD
-The other game was charades! I just helped guess~
-Dinner was called afterwards, and Uncle David walked behind me to the table. Only just when I sat down, a photo order was given! I leant against the table for the photo; afterwards, Karen walked behind me back to the dining table.
-Thanks to Kathy who got me one plateful of food; originally, Soky/Vicky was getting me some food, but Kathy went instead, saying, "I know what Em likes eating." And she did! ;) Only she forgot to gimme any rice, until I whimpered @ her, "The rice bucket needs rice!" XD
-I also drank two bowls of soup, just your usual tomato, carrot, potato and corn.
-Over dinner, I chatted mostly with Fiona and Smoky. Lol, Fiona asked me very personal questions and made me teary! But after dinner, thanks to her who walked behind me once to the loo and back, where I managed fine by myself.
-People started leaving roundabouts 9:30, although Dr. Dr. Tai didn't come till very late. Luckily for her, Uncle David had saved her an entire spread of food!
-Then a scary thing happened: Sushi had a seizure! o_O Uncle David and Aunty Katie wrapped her up in some blanket, while Fiona rang some after-hours vet. She's a very old dog now; thirteen!
-We all left after that. The Chow sisters drove me back home (Small Chow drove).
-Once home, instant bedtime. Horrid PIG mum refused to note down for me the additional steps I'd plodded last night; she's spiteful like that. >< She also refused to give poor Elf's ankle a rub, that's the SECOND CONSECUTIVE day she's not done that for poor Elf. :o( Well, third time lucky tonight!
-Today: woo hoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 4:50am (yes, that's how early the Sun rises in Summer!) and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 5am 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, with me waking once more for the pot :P around 7am.
-Happiness was falling back asleep with Daddy Bear, until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes." When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles and she got me kitted. Then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth, 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 drained holding 'incorrectly' whilst the parents were upstairs changing.I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk 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 refused to listen to any music, not that it affected me, because I spent the short car trip to church finishing off my mostly silent chat to Percy the angel/saint.
-At church, PIG mum took me downstairs to the loo once, then left me with Aunty Katherine inside the church library room.
-Today, we finished watching that School of Awesome: We Will Rock You movie that was created ten years ago! It's also the last session i'll spend with Aunty Katherine there, because Bible study resumes next week.
-PIG mum took me once to the loo, I grabbed some morning tea then sat down. Leanne's grandma came over and I got a red packet from her!
-When people started heading upstairs for the English service, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk into the little kiddies from.
-After Aunty Peggy led worship, I told my story. Mid Chow was amazing: while I can bumblingly  translate each sentence from English to Cantonese, today Mid Chow translated every sentence I said into Mandarin!
-She even led craft afterwards; we made these origami fish! I asked Kathy please for red paper, explaining to her when she quiered why I wasn't using blue, that my dearest dad's a keen fisherman, and his favourite colour's red.
-Lol, I sat opposite to the girl who only spoke Mandarin; she helped me lots and told me she's in grade five. Lol, when I wailed @ Small Chow, "Jiu ming ah! Wo mei you yu!" (Help! I don't have a fish!) she laughed and joined in, "Wo dol ye mei you yu!" (I don't have a fish either!" XD
-But we got our fish in the end, and after PIG mum took me once more to the loo, I got myself one bowlful of yummy food @ our church luncheon to celebrate CNY.
-We sat inside (PIG mum was majorly grumbling about the heat) with uncle Calvin and Aunty Ping Yee, Aunty Ming and Uncle Ian (today was the first time I met him; he's not only got a teaching (chemistry) degree but also
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us home. We listened to Kelly Clarkson's 'Stronger'.
-Back home, I plopped online and PIG mum hit pigland upstairs.
-Around 3:30pm, nature suddenly called, 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.
-Doubt I can return online tonight, seeing as I've already exceeded the PISSY two hours that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-*sigh* Tomorrow will mark seven years since the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly destroyed my life with the disabling brain tumour. >< Doubt the parents will know (or, if PIG mum does, bet she won't care, but I can only mourn the life that God is wasting on this Earth ... ><
-Fingers crossed I can go have some udon for lunch, and bring back one inari for arvo tea!
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm; hopefully she'll arrive punctually!
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Correction: tonight I'm actually going to Dr. lee's place to watch some movie about social justice! Fiona's taking me there, and says to eat dinner beforehand~
