Good evening again, and one definite final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2689, remember that like 700 of those steps were plodded @ Ray's place for small group last night. D2's final, final report for Saturday: 2689 steps also equals - sorry, I forgot his report. XD Anyways, just noting down then dad and I went to see Godzilla! I confused it with King Kong and was like, "Why's he not an ape?" Then, leaving, we bumped into Hayley and Steph! Finally, going home, we overtook PIG mum along whatever the road's called before we turn into Warrigal Rd.! Toms: just church, definitely nothing special, apart from the fact that I'm doing the lil kids storytelling and there's SHINE fellowship afterwards. Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for Saturday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2310, remembering that just over 400 of those steps were plodded last night @ Ray's place for small group. D2's probable final, final report for Saturday: 2310 steps also equals ... sorry, D2's idiot owner forgot to note down his first report; she'll try harder tomorrow; promise! XD Anyways, probable final, final events for Saturday?
-When Carol announced her arrival just after 4pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her back in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Hey, dad says we're going to watch Godzilla! Hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2022 steps today (remembering that like just over 400 of those steps were plodded last night @ Ray's place for small group; secondly, TWFT topic's 'Be Resilient' but thirdly and most importantly, I'm still owed THREE MINUTES online after Carol Lockwood leaves @ 6pm!! bUT i'LL TRY NOT NOTING THAT DOWN, COZ IT'S SUCH A PIDDLY AMOUNT OF TIME. iF i REALLY CAN'T - sorry, shrieking! >< If I don't get those few minutes back, I'll know for next time around to note every single little minute down. Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!
~Cripes, it's almost 3:30pm, and I've just spent all this time writing a very long e-mail to someone I've just gotten back into contact with! Better just note down that last night, I had small group @ Rays, who led a Bible study about Pastor Chris's Star Wars sermon series. Uncle Chong visited us, and afterwards, Lana made us cupcakes! They were made with Ferrero Rocher, and originally I was gonna wail, curse and sulk my nut allergy, only Ray pulled another one out and said that lana had made that for me without peanuts! :D This morning, Carol Lockwood stayed with me from 10am till 1pm, then Aunty Jo came and taught me about travel! Carol Lockwood will come back again @ 4pm and supervise my shower, and PIG mum's going out tonight. I daren't return online after dinner, coz I've almost enjoyed two hours, so after dinner I plan just to sit and read. Toms just church, nothing special. Well, the special thing's that I'm doing the story telling for the little kiddies and there's SHINE fellowship afterwards! Anyways, hopefully bbl one more time after Carol leaves, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 193c

Good evening, and one definite final greeting for Friday! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4795; D2's final, final report for Friday: 4795 steps also equals sth very slightly over ninety-nine kcal or sth very slightly over 2.05km. XD Anyways, final, final events for Friday?
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once back to the loo then tootled us back to Warrigal Square for lunch. Originally, I'd asked could we please have lunch @ Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong, but PIG mum refused, saying she was sick. Anyways, 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.
-Sushi Train didn't have any booths available; instead, PIG mum and I had lunch @ Madtongsan! I stuck with my favourite cheesy pork cutlet; PIG mum had some stone pot noodle with beef kinda thing.
-Afterwards, I used the loo once @ Warrigal Square, then PIG mum tootled me off for pincushion practice.
-One, that hurts. Two, the regular room wasn't available, meaning I needed a stool to reach the high bed. And three, lying down's freezing! I can't wait till I've done eight sessions for PIG mum and can stay away for most of Winter!
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then drove us home. Again, while she drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm seventy-five times, holding each for a count of five.
-Back home, I walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithfulGod's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-PIG mum found a missed call from Le-ann (my current Epic employment consultant) and got me to ring her back. Next Thursday, she and Fiona will pick me up after writers group and take me to lunch! I presume we're just going to food court and they're not really getting me a job, but hey.
-When Aunty Lucia announced her arrival @ 4:10pm, 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 hot 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 hot water off, got dried, had another tinkle and got creamed. I - argh, PIG mum's counting to the bloody MINUTE of my PISSY two hours online, so lemme just say I had the second half of the yummy naan for arvo tea, plus one mug of some green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'. Aunty Lucia took me once more to the loo before leaving, then @ 5:45pm and 6:05pm I took myself again slowly and safely to the loo, both times rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. I'm going to Ray's for small group tonight, then toms, Carol's coming from 10am till 1pm before Carol Lockwood comes from 4pm till 6pm. And some aunty will prolly come teach me Canto translation. Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4695; D2's potential final, final report for Friday: 4695 steps also equals ninety-nine kcal or 2.05km. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for tonight?
-Woo hoo, another awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:35am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:45am having a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-More happy snorings with Daddy Bear resumed, until dearest dad came and kissed me bye before leaving for work @ 7:45am. I also used the pot :P once more.
-Daddy Bear and I resumed our happy snorings together, with me waking once more for the pot :P before PIG mum came to poke 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 I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast is half the yummy naan bread I bought from Breadtop yesterday morning with Roxana, one mug of yummy mint drinking chocolate, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I also continue my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the 4WD, and she tootled me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to Leslie Cheung all day, too. While PIG mum drove, I kept both eyes closed and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel; then, opening them 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.
-I used the loo once when we arrived, then sat in the waiting area. Thanks to PIG mum who handed me some random mag before going back downstairs to pay.
-Kate came for me with a walkbelt and Forced me to walk into the gym. Physio today: reaching for Era, weight shifting, @ least twenty-two sit-to-stands, wheelie stoll race with Jess, card work for Ela and two laps walking along hallway with Brett (Kate and PIG mum were yapping).
-Hey, brb!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 193

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4234 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling eighty-seven kcal or 1.85km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'The Finger of God (4)' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's just six but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and NINETEEN MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves around 5pm!!! But just noting down that I had anther great sleep last night, UQ physio this morning with Kate and Brett, then PIG mum and I enjoyed lunch @ Madtongsan before I had pincushion practice. Tonight I'm off to Ray's for small group and toms, expect a super-pissy plodding total coz I'm not going out. Someone comes @ 10am (not Rhi, coz she's still in hospital, poor thing, but not Barb either, Kyabra just rang, so maybe Carol?) She's coming back to supervise my shower @ 4pm anyway. So hopefully bbl with today's events in detail, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 193c

Good evening and one definite final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 5190; D2's final, final report for tonight: 5190 steps also equals 120kcal or 2.25km. XD Anyways, final, final events for Thursday?
-When PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland, she gleefully and immediately forced me offline.
-First she gleefully forced Ela to practise piano for her for fifteen minutes. I don't really mind, because (1) Era gets to play for fifteen minutes herself afterwards and (2) I've always loved playing piano, even after the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly tore away my ability to play even semi-decently. I just miss being able to play properly so ... >< But my love for the piano's one thing I'll never let the cruel and unfaithful God take away from me!
-After that, I let the parents gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 600 steps on that bloody cross trainer. Only, D2 felt super-sorry for me and gave me lotsa steps! You'll note how I'm not gloating I'm more than half a normal person today, because I doubt I am. XD
-One more loo trip and a tee change for me before dinner. The yummy rice tonight, lotsa some vegetable (obviously, I've forgotten XD), some fish (coral trout, maybe?) and one little morsel of delicious BBQ chicken, which PIG mum said she and dad had gone to Woolies to buy when I was out @ Toastmasters on Tuesday.
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of papaw soup; afterwards, I happily read Game of Thrones for about forty minutes. Originally, I had intended to read for one hour, wait until PIG mum had finished plodding her own six hundred steps, use the loo once more then return online to record down my final, final plodding total for Thursday, but PIG mum decided suddenly @ like 8:20pm she was going to bed! She hasn't plodded her 600 steps yet; if she tries to gleefully FORCE :( me to walk for her toms on that thing, I'll insist she walk the 600 she passed tonight, then I'll walk for her, before she does today's steps, huh.
-Meaning I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the toilet, then slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Well, it's 9:30pm now and both parents have gone upstairs. I'm sorely tempted to stay online till 3am but no, I told dad I'll head to bed myself @ 9:45pm; I'd better keep my word.
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with Kate.
-Fingers crossed I can have lunch @ Dong Fong/Sunnybank Oriental afterwards, because I think i've gotta see Dr. Lin for acupuncture in the arvo.
-Aunty Lucia will come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Ray's place for small group toms night.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Did I say earlier? The Courier Mail costs $1.20 now! Back when I was @ uni, the paper only cost one dollar!

Heylo again, good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for Thursday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3018; D2's potential final, final report for Thursday: 2958 steps also equals seventy-two kcal or 1.3km. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for Thursday?
-When PIG mum came back, I used the pot :P once more for three tinkles and she got me kitted. Then I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :(me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and blackberry jam ever, one yummy mug of drinking mint chocolate, one full mug of water and all my usual drugs. :P While PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I walked myself slowly and safely to the toilet, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Staying over the loo for @ least two more tinkles, I also leaned fully against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Roxana arrived five minutes late, explaining that CPR training had been cancelled. She didn't explain why she couldn't arrive by 9am, though; originally she said she was coming @ 8:45am!
-She tootled me off to Garbo. Yay, there was parking space available; we held hands and I walked up well into the library with her, where I grabbed orson Scott Card's and Aaron Johnstone's Earth Afire and happily read for one hour, reaching page 100 @ 9:35am.
-At 10:28pm, Roxana and I both used the meeting room toilets, then went to Breadtop. Today, I chose a chicken puff and a naan.
-Next stop was Dick Smiths, where I updated on an IPad while Roxana sat outside waiting for me.
-Then we ducked into QBD, JayJays and the Reject Shop before buying jam from Coles.
-Back upstairs, we met Anna for lunch! I had my usual, Anna had something from Hanaichi and Roxana had Fresh Mex.
-After lunch, Roxans took me once more to the loo then tootled me home, saying we didn't have enough time to browse Toys R Us. :o(
-Back home, I turned off the alarm then went for my nice hot 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 hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. Roxana rekitted me, and I had one more tinkle when she was washing my glasses for me.
-I popped online and Roxana went to clean the bathroom. Before leaving, she took me to the loo once more. She's back next Thursday for just two hours, and will be cooking some seafood dish for dinner tonight!
-Me, I plopped briefly online, and when PIG mum announced her safe return home, 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 Hi push me over.
-We had arvo tea together: half my yummy chicken puff bun each.
-Then Joey came to teach me pilates for thirty minutes. I went once more to the loo before seeing her out, walking myself slowly and safely back to the computer, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Around 5:30pm, nature called, and I once more took myself 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.
-Well, I've almost enjoyed the whole PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, and doubt I'll return online after dinner, so toms:
-Late morning UQ physio with Kate.
-Fingers crossed I can have lunch somewhere yummy afterwards!
-I've prolly got acupuncture in the arvo.
-Aunty Lucia's coming to supervise my shower.
-And I'm off to Ray's for small group toms night.
-Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

!Woo hoo, another awesome slweep last night! (That was probably to make up for the fact that the poor Maroons lost to the smelly Blues. XD) Again, nature didn't call until 6:35am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:45am having a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-More happy snorings with Daddy Bear resumed, until dearest dad came and kissed me bye before leaving for work @ 7:45am. I also used the pot :P once more.
-Right after dearest dad left, PIG mum was downstairs and poking me with "fifteen more minutes.
-Hey, fingers crossed I can bbl, coz I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online!!!!

Wednesday Post 193d

Good evening, and probably one final greeting for Wednesday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5018, remembering that like 700 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters. D2's probable final, final report for tonight: 5018 steps also equals 115kcal or 2.75km. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for tonight?
-When Carol arrived only one minute late today, PIG mum let her in. I finished playing my current game of Bejeweled before heading into the bathroom for my nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. It's frustrating that Carol won't hold the shower hrad over my back and keep me warm while I shower; I could've been out ten minutes earlier had she agreed! instead, I had to wash myself some, warm my poor back back up, repeat. :o(

-I had one tinkle before flipping the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped with only my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself 9Carol only helped with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, went to wash and dry Era, then let Carol Force me to walk out to the kitchen to prepare my arvo tea.
-My yummy mug of peppermint tea was my last and official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly', I also enjoyed my delicious pork salad roll.
-Carol cleaned the bathroom then sat and massaged Ela for only twenty-five minutes, painting her duck meat beige with dumpling peel white dots today.
-Before leaving, Carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. Actually, she just left when I was coming out, but I walked myself slowly and safely back to the computer anyway, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: it's my fortnightly Garbo trip with Roxana, yay! She hasta leave thirty minutes early for CPR training, but I should be meeting Anna for lunch~
-Fingers crossed that dad'll take us out somewhere yummy for dinner tonight!
-Oh dear, I'm still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES  online!!!  ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^

A third greeting from Tim! (You all remember my smartphone, right? XD) anyway, my new plodding total for Wednesday now stands at 4789, remembering that like 700 of those steps were plodded last night at Toastmasters. D2's new report: 4789 steps also equals

Wednesday Post 193b

Heylo again! Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4443, remembering that like 700 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters. D2's new report: 4443 steps also equals ninety-nine kcal or 2.5km. XD Much more importantly, however, is the fact that I'm still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHT MINUTES online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!!! But just noting down that Aunty Deana came and minded me for three hours, while PIG mum went out to see Vincent the physio. And guess what? Aunty Deana fed me not PORK dumplings, but BBQ DUCK dumplings! She fried me seven; I enjoyed that with a little soya sauce, one yummy mug of Milo and one banana! I also did a stinky unspeakable after downing one mug of water holding the mug 'incorrectly', my second for today. Carol should come supervise my shower soon, and I can't wait for the opening origin match tonight! So hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 193

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3880 steps today (remembering that like 700 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters; D2 very proudly reports that 3880 steps also equals eighty-nine kcal or 2.26km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'The Finger Of God (2)' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after Aunty Deanna leaves @ 3:30pm!!!! But just noting down that I had an awesome time @ Toastmasters and a great sleep last night (nature didn't call until 6:35am), then UQ physio with Kate before I saw Aunty Anna for a haircut. Aunty Deana's minding me now while PIG mum has gone to see Vincent the physio for some treatment. Carol's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm and tonight, Uncle Colbert will be coming over to watch the first Origin match with dad and I! GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS; we want our NINTH STRAIGHT VICTORY this year!! Toms is my fortnightly trip to Garbo, yay! I wish Aimee could find someone who can take me out for the whole 9am till 2:30pm shift, because Roxana needs to leave @ 2pm for some CPR training ... Anyways, hopefully bbl with today's events in detail, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!

Tuesday Post 163

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3832 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling eighty kcal or 1.68km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'The Finger of God (1)'. Anyways, events for today?
~I used the pot :P once last night and once more around 6:30am, before spending ten minutes 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 with Daddy Bear resumed, until dearest dad came and kissed me bye before leaving for work @ 7:45am. I used the pot :P once more, then Daddy Bear and I cuddled and continued our happy snorings, me waking twice more for the pot :P until PIG mum came and poked me with "Fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I swung myself to the pot :P for one more tinkle, just swinging myself back to bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. That was a relief, coz I'd felt like doing one last night, but PIG mum decided 'twas more important that she got to gleefully force poor Ela to practise piano for her, only I remember her telling me it's not healthy to hold one's number two in. So, phew, all's well that ends well. Anyways, PIG mum got me kitted, then I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE:( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and blackberry jam ever, one full mug of water, one yummy mug of drinking mint chocolate and all my usual drugs. :P Over breakfast, whilst PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, I went over to wash and dry both hands, before letting PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the 4WD, where she tootled meoff to see Vincent the bloody physio for my torture session with him. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to Linkin Park's 'Hybrid Theory' album all day, too. While PIG mum 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: bent down for Ela to touch Vincent's hand twenty/twenty-five times, two attempts before sitting, then just exercises for Ela, who also pointlessly opened door and held onto rail @ end.
-Afterwards, PIG mum drove me to the Sunnybank Hills Shopping Centre and gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the chemist and buy my eye gel, because 'twas only 11:30am and the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant doesn't open until midday. Actually, I was supposed to see Epic this morning, but they bailed out on me. *sigh*
-Finally, lunch! I ordered the Hokkien fried rice, and was super-impressed that it came with calamari!
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled us home, chucking some spiteful cow @ me and threatening not to lemme see the Lion king musical if she caught me hitting the hazard lights again. Don't worry, I know it's just the cruel and unfaithful God trying to ruin my day, I'm just gonna totally ignore him, rise above his near-overwhelming hared and keep a good attitude.
-Back home, 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.
-Carol's taking me out to Toastmasters tonight! Fingers crossed I can get a Happy Meal back for dinner~
-Toms: mid-morn UQ physio with Kate. Lol, if Jess still hasn't shown her the photo of Ela doing the Chinese six symbol, I'm gonna ask PIG mum to please get out Tim and show her!
-Aunty Deana will come mind me for three hours, hopefully with dumplings! Dunno what PIG mum's planning to do, but hopefully she'll get a pork salad roll for my arvo tea!
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower. I've told her she can wear blue if she wants, but that I'd spend all afternoon telling her how ugly she looks. XD
-I'm not wearing any blue toms night, coz it's the first Origin match! Uncle Colbert's coming to enjoy the game with us~GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS!!
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 163d

One final good evening! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 8209; D2's final, final report: 8209 steps also equals 205kcal or 3.6km. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped only with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and slowly, silently but most hatefully singing about 23% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
-After going to wash and dry Era, I let Carol Force me to walk out to the kitchen and prepare arvo tea, the second half (well, almost; PIG mum started but for some reason didn't finish) of the yummy teriyaki chicken rice I'd had for lunch, plus one mug of lemon green tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Carol cleaned the bathroom then sat and gently massaged Ela for exactly thirty minutes, while I finished eating then read.
-Before leaving @ 6pm, Carol took me once more to the loo. She's back the day after tomorrow and will just have leftovers for dinner.
-I returned happily online, only for PIG mum to spoil the fun when she tumbled downstairs from pigland, gleefully and immediately forcing me offline.
-She was gonna gleefully force me to play piano for her, but I went to the loo and did a stinky unspeakable first. Only she booted me outta the loo before I'd finished! Guess she was just too eager to force me to play piano for her; that's okay, I'll do another stinky unspeakable toms morning, prolly. It's just funny: PIG mum always goes on @ me about how it's not healthy to hold your poop in, then she won't lemme sit over the loo a lil while longer and lemme get it out! XD But like I've said before: it really doesn't matter, because I've always loved playing piano, even after the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly destroyed my life with the disabling brain tumour; I wasn't half-bad, honest ...
-Afterwards, I let her combine with dearest dad to gleefully FORCE :( me to plod on that bloody cross trainer for 600 strides.
-One more loo trip and a tee change later, dinner was the yummy rice, lotsa some green vegetable (obviously I've forgotten what XD), lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon and a tiny fragment of yummy chicken. Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, then I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk back online.
-At 9:15pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: late morning torture session with Vincent the bloody physio. ><
-Fingers crossed I can get some yummy lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant; I wanna have what PIG mum had last time, the Hokkien fried rice!
-Carol Lockwood's coming to supervise my shower then taking me out to Toastmasters so fingers crossed I can bring back some dinner from Maccas afterwards! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 163c

Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 8040; D2's new report: 8040 steps also equals 201kcal or 3.53km. XD Anyways, continuing today's events?
-After PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes, I used the pot :P once more for two tinkles. Usually I stay for three, but today PIG mum simply couldn't wait to gleefully force poor Ela to hold the cup and toothpaste and ordered me back into bed after just two tinkles.
-So PIG mum got me kitted, I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and blackberry jam ever, one yummy mug of mint drinking chocolate, one full mug of water and all my usual drugs. :P While PIG mum was upstairs changing, I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the 4WD, and she tootled me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; PIG mum also decided to some orchestral album called sth like 'Spring Rain'/'Autumn Rain' first, too. As for me, I spent most of this trip with both eyes closed and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, then, opening both eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-There wasn't any parking available again, so PIG mum walked me into the building first then left to re-park the 4WD. I waited until reception was empty, then asked Shyla to please ring the NAB and send down Katie for me.
-I headed upstairs when Katie came for me, used the loo once myself then headed into the gym with her. Physio today: weightshifting, ten sit-to-stands, reaching for Era, scooting forward on plinth, stepping @ parallel bars and walking about eight laps along parallel bars.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled me off to Garbo for lunch and to see shifu Lei for a massage. 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.
-We had lunch @ Woka Woka; the set lunch was yummy teriyaki chicken with rice.
-After lunch, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk through Coles to buy groceries, before I went back upstairs to the loo once more and saw Lei shifu for a comfy massage. PIG mum also got one from Tom; gosh, I heard nothing but her incessantly yapping @ Tom for her whole massage! XD
-Massage over, PIG mum took me to the loo once more then tootled us home. 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.
-When Carol arrived precisely @ 4pm, PIG mum let her in. I finished my game of Bejeweled before heading into the bathroom for my nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-Hey, brb!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-Well, I was meant to have a great night's sleep last night, considering I walked as much as a normal person, only I've always been a messy sleeper who kicks off her blankets and I awoke twice last night, frozen solid and needing the pot! :P
-Nature called again around 6:30am this morning, and after one pot :P trip, 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.
-More happy snorings with Daddy Bear resumed, until dearest dad came and kissed me bye before leaving for work @ 7:45am. I used the pot :P once more, then Daddy Bear and I cuddled and continued our happy snorings.
-After PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes - argh, fingers crossed I can bbl, because IU'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online!! ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-So a nice hot shower today - I washed and rinsed my own hair, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum helped with nothing bar Elf's AFO.
-I then let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the piano, where she gleefully forced each hand to practise piano for fifteen minutes each. I'll keep saying this, but I don't really mind, because I've always loved playing piano, even after the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly tore away my ability to play even semi-decently. I wasn't half-bad, honest ... it just makes me so sad to realise what the cruel and unfaithful God has reduced me to... ><
-Afterwards, I let the parents gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 500 steps on that bloody cross trainer for them.
-Then I went for a tee change before returning online.
-Hmm, it's 6:50pm, only Aunty A still isn't here for hotpot yet! Wonder what's keeping her? Wait, she's just arrived, so lemme note down that I'm owed FIFTY-EIGHT MINUTES online and say hopefully bbl after dinner, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!

Thursday Post 192

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 3361 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling seventy-six kcal or 1.46km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Get Back Up, God is on Your Side' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and  TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Selena leaves tonight @ 6pm!! Anyways, events for today?
~Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:10am (when dad came to put the blanket over me; I suppose me being a messy sleeper kicked them all off XD) and after one pot :P trip, 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.
-Afterwards, Daddy Bear  and I resumed our happy snorings together, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:45am.
-More happy snorings for Daddy Bear and I after dearest dad left, plus @ least one more pot :P trip for me, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more forthree tinkles and she got me kitted. Then I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and blackberry jam ever, one mug of yummy mint drinking chocolate, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water, which I drained holding 'incorrectly' whilst PIG mum was upstairs changing. I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the 4WD, and she tootled me off to writers group! Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt; I listed to the official soundtrack from FIFA's 1998 World Cup and Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes.
-A the library, PIG mum took me once to the loo then left for work.
-Eight people attended group this morning. One was a new lady. Everyone said my homework was very very good, and next topic's homework's 'denial'. I'm planning to write about the river Nile. (De nile, get it? :P)
-Lol, Selena was late getting me coz she was waiting in line to pay for some jacket she'd bought from SES! XD
-But she arrived eventually, took me to the loo then drove me to Fasta Pasta for lunch! I'd expected her to head for the Springwood one, but instead we went to the Browns Plains one! It's heaps bigger than the Springwood one, and the only thing I don't like about it was that there were stairs.
-I ordered my favourite fettucine cabonara, she had my second-favourite, the ravioli fantasia and we also shared this cheesy garlic pizza bread, two slices each. I hadn't even thought to ask Selena about garlic bread, but she noticed the sign advertising it, and asked me did I want some!
-Afterwards, Selena tootled me back home, I rang dearest dad to let him know that we were back, then used the loo once before plopping online. Selena turned the television on loud for me, before leaving. She's back this arvo, because poor Roxana hurt her neck, needs a massage and can't come! ><
-PIG mum just arrived safely home; she's making herself lunch now~
-Like I just said, Selena's coming back @ 4pm to supervise my shower.
-Toms: late morning UQ physio with ... lol, I still can't remember her name! ><" XD Katie?
-Fingers crossed I can get lunch somewhere yummy, like Dong Fong/Sunnybank Oriental!
-Aunty Lucia should come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And I'm off to Pole's house for small group toms nice.
-Actually, toms, May the 23rd, marks SIX YEARS since I've been released from the insane asylum (more commonly known to everyone else as the P.A hospital!!) Dad may have refused to take me out for dinner so I can show him Ela doing the Chinese six, but fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy a small cake from Sunni bakery to share with everyone @ small group!
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl after Selena leaves, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 192c

-At 9pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: Yay, writers group! I've finished my homework; hopefully the other members like~
-Selena's collecting me afterwards; we're going to the Springwood Fasta Pasta for lunch! :D PIG mum has already demanded I bring home half for arvo tea, but hey.
-Roxana's coming to supervise my shower around 4pm~

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 192c

Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 6119, which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 126kcal or 2.66km. XD Anyways, continuing events for tonight?
-So, PIG mum gleefully booted me offline and gleefully forced me to practise piano for her, both hands fifteen minutes apiece. I've said before and I'll keep saying, but I don't really mind because I've always loved playing the piano, even after the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly destroyed my ability to play even semi-decently. I wasn't half-bad ... honest; it just makes me  so sad to realise what He's abandoned me as: useless. ><
-After the piano playing, the parents gleefully FORCED :( me to plod on the bloody cross trainer for 500 steps.
-One more loo trip for me before dinner: the yummy rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown vegies and hairy melon, maybe one mushroom? maybe some fish? but definitely some pork. I prolly lost note of what I ate because the parents randomly ganged up and chucked some dreadful cow @ me. I'm now convinced: since Jess has promised I won't fall to my death until I'm @ least seventy-five, I'm now convinced I'm gonna die of BAD POSTURE. *sigh* Don't worry, as much as I'm tempted, I refuse to get angry with the parents over this; I know it's just the cruel and unfaithful God trying as always to ruin what has been a pretty good day for me. So I'll keep a good attitude, rise above his near-overwhelming hatred and sing myself to sleep tonight. *sigh*
-After dinner, I walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can brb shortly after 9pm following one more loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

-At Goodwill, some new lady called Dot padded up my new AFO and voila, the twinge pain has gone again! Hopefully it'll stay good this time. Dot, who's from New Zealand, said that Rod had gone up very north somewhere!
-We arrived home right behind Carol, and I headed straight into the bathroom for my nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped with only my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol only helped with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped only with Elf's AFO and my shoes and laces). Then I went over to the loo for two more tinkles, went over to wash and dry Era, then let Carol Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table to prepare arvo tea.
-Arvo tea was one mug of yummy mint green tea - my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly' and one delicious pork salad roll. After Carol cleaned the bathroom, she sat and gently massaged Ela for about forty minutes, painting her cotton glove white with rubber cotton glove light purple dots.
-Before leaving @ 6pm, Carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. She's back next Monday, will have leftovers for dinner and lol, I had to yell upstairs and ask PIG mum to please let Carol outta the house coz she couldn't find the keys/use the garage remote. XD
-Anyways, PIG mum's gleefully forcing me offline to play piano for her, so hopefully bbl because I'm still owed one hourand TWENTY-TWO MINUTES online!!!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Toms I've got mid-morning UQ physio with Kate before Aunty Deana comes to mind me for about three hours (I've gotta complete my writers group homework, while lucky PIG mum has Aunty Anne and Aunty Bingki to shout her lunch) then I'm off again to Goodwill to try and get my boot fixed before Carol comes to supervise my shower @ 4pm. aBest of all, it's ice cream night tonight; like I'll keep saying, a very little's better than none @ all! Actually, I recall PIG mum offering me some tonight ... fingers crossed! Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 162b

Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4360; D2's potential final, final report for tonight: 4284 steps also equals 108kcal or 1.89m. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for tonight?
-When Annette announced her arrival @ 4:04pm, 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. Turns out she was late coz she'd been talking with Luke's speechie.
-So a nice hot shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (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.) After side stepping so that Annette could tie my shoelaces for me, I went over to the loo for two tinkles. That done, I went over to wash and dry Era, I let Annette Force me to walk out to prepare arvo tea, my lunch leftovers. Thanks muchly to Annette who lemme drink white tea with one spoonful of honey; she said I'd been 'good' recently. XD That was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Annette made herself a cuppa also, then sat and massaged Ela for forty minutes, painting her something like orange with yellow spots today.
-Before leaving, Annette took me once more to the loo for two tinkles and helped me put a jacket on. Dunno when she's back, not till next Saturday, @ least!
-I returned happily online, taking myself slowly and safely to the loo once and back when nature suddenly called, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: mid-morning UQ physio with ... Katie? Lol, I still haven't learnt her name yet! XD
-Aunty Deana will come mind me for about three hours while lucky PIG mum gets shouted out to lunch by Aunty Anne and Aunty Bingki.
-Then I'm off to Goodwill again to hopefully get my boot fixed ...
-Carol's coming to supervise my shower artound 4pm.
-And best of all, it's ice cream night toms night! Like I keep saying, a very little's better than none @ all! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 162

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4041 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 100kcal or 1.76km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's "How's Your Work Ethic (1)?' Anyways, events for today?
-I used the pot :P twice last night and twice again this morning, before spending ten minutes having a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-Afterwards, Daddy Bear  and I resumed our happy snorings together, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:45am.
-More happy snorings for Daddy Bear and I after dearest dad left, plus @ least one more pot :P trip for me, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more forthree tinkles and she got me kitted. Then I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and blackberry jam ever, one mug of yummy mint drinking chocolate, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water, which I drained holding 'incorrectly' whilst PIG mum was upstairs changing. I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo and did a stinky unspeakable, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. I also leaned fully against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-Afterwards, I went over to washand dry both hands, before I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the 4WD.
-Off she tootled me for my job interview @ Springwood! Of course, she gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to the 1998 FIFA World Cup's soundtrack all day, too. While PIG mum drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-At that place, Fiona helped me up two short flights of stairs, because the rail was on the left hand side.
-We took a seat until some guy called David Prior called me into his office. It took a walk down another two short flights of stairs to get into his office. I was starting to think, "Argh, doesn't this place have a lift? I'm not really sure I wanna hike four flights of stairs every time I come to work!
-Basically, Mr. Prior just talked a little about what he does, also asking me several random questions.
-Alas, the person he interviewed before me was more suitable for the job than I am. However, he says I've got a great personality and he'll consider me for any upcoming jobs his company may have; he also says to stay in touch.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then took me once to the Underwood Market Place, where I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk around the store, buying milk and teabags.
-I thought we'd go home and drop off the groceries before going to see Vincent the bloody physio; that way, I'd use the loo. Only PIG mum tootled me straight there, and when I said I'd use the toilet once when I arrived then not again till after lunch, she said she wouldn't let me! >< So I determined I'd somehow hold it in; no way I'm letting the cruel and unfaithfuil God make me piss my pants! ><
-Physio today: sat first go, practised Ela taking ball and passing it while standing, Ela to pointlessly open door and hold onto rail @ end. Vincent seemed kinda distracted today; that was prolly coz today was little Kayla's first day @ child care and he was pining after her!
-Afterwards, PIG mum tootled us to the Calamvale BBQ and Chinese restaurant for lunch. I had the yummy BBQ pork and tofu with rice; she had Hokkien noodles! Hey, I didn't know that was on the menu; I'm definitely getting that next week if PIG mum takes me for lunch there! Oh, and I drank three cups of Chinese tea.
-Lunch finished, I finally got to empty my bladder. I'm just proud/relieved that I didn't let the cruel and unfaithful God make me piss myself.
-When PIG mum tootled us home, Era again helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-Back home, I went once to the loo (of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself), before 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.
-Annette's coming to supervise my shower @ 4pm, so fingers crossed I can bblone last time after she leaves @ 6pm, else toms:
-mid-morning UQ physio with ... Katie? Oh, hell, I've forgotten my student's name again. XD
-When I get home, I've gotta complete my writers group homework!
-Aunty Deana will come supervise me for three hours while lucky PIG mum gets treated out for lunch by Aunty Anne and Aunty Bingki.
-Then I'm off to Goodwill to try and get my boot fixed back again.
-Carol will come supervise my shower around 4pm.
-And yay, it's ice cream night toms night! Like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all! Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

One final good evening! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 5804; D2's final, final report for Monday: 5804 steps also equals 164kcal or 2.58km. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-At 9pm, after asking PIG mum to please help me put a jacket on (coz it was FREEZING! ><"), I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Toms: today, Epic rang while we were having lunch with Mrs. Dent and toms morning I've got some job interview happening! Fingers crossed I can FINALLY get a paid job!!

Monday Post 162c

Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 5804, which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 158kcal or 2.53km. XD Anyways, continuing events for Monday?
-While PIG mum tootled us home, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, and Ela opened and closed her palm seventy-five times, holding each for a count 0f five.
-Back home, 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.
-When Carol announced er arrival @ 4:07pm, PIG mum let her inside and I went to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. Turns out Carol's been away all this time coz she had a benign growth in her chest the size of an orange that needed removing, but she's okay now.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (Carol helped only with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, Carol helped only with my back and Era), then mostly rekitted myself (Carol helped only with Elf's AFO). Then I went over to the loo for two tinkles, before I went to wash and dry Era then let Carol Force me to walk out to prepare arvo tea.
-Thanks to PIG mum who'd gotten me one roll of yummy teriyaki chicken sushi, although I had to get the soya sauce myself, after Carol refused to lemme have any. Actually, she put the soya sauce back into the fridge, but after I sulked for awhile, she relented and poured out literally three drops for me. Ah, much yummier~ Oh, and the mug of yummy rice green tea I made for myself was my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After Carol cleaned the bathroom, she sat and gently massaged Ela for thirty minutes, painting her chocolate brown with some kinda popping chocolate multi-colour today.
-At 6pm, she took me once more to the loo for two tinkles, then helped me put my jacket on before she left. She'll be back on Wednesday.
-I tootled happily online and started blogging about today. Dearest dad returned home, and PIG mum tumbled downstairs immediately.
-Suddenly, she gleefully forces me offline then combines with dad to gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 500/600 steps on that bloody cross trainer. Actually, dad randomly gave me a thirty step discount.
-One more loo trip before dinner: the yummy rice tonight, but no greens! Just lotsa papaw, some mincemeat, one little chunk of pork and some barramundi.
-Dinner was washed down with one mug of lemongrass and mint green tea, which I got to hold 'incorrectly' because PIG mum was watching the Voice.
-Then I walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for monday plus what's happening toms after one final loo trip, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 162b

Heylo again and good evening! Em's new plodding total for monday now stands @ 5017, which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 131kcal or 2.19km. XD Anyways, events for today?
-I used the pot :P once last night and once again this morning around 6:20am, before spending the ten minutes till 6:30am having a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-Afterwards, Daddy Bear  and I resumed our happy snorings together, me waking briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 7:45am.
-More happy snorings for Daddy Bear and I after dearest dad left, plus @ least one more pot :P trip for me, before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-When she came back, I used the pot :P once more for only one tinkle, swinging myself back into bed when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum got me kitted and I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with a miniscule dab of butter and rasberry jam, one full mug of water, one yummy mug of drinking mint chocolate and all my usual drugs. :P
-After breakfast, I walked myself slowly and safely to the toilet and did a stinky unspeakable, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. I also leaned fully against the side rail and continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-When that was done, I walked over to wash and dry both hands, before I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the 4WD, where she tootled me off to UQ for physio.
-Of course, PIG mum gleefully forced poor Em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to the official soundtrack for the 1998 FIFA world cup, too. As for me, I spent most of this trip with both eyes closed, finishing off my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, then, opening both eyes somewhere along Coronation Drive, Era helped Ela stretch for five minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm @ least seventy-five times, holding each for a count of five.
-At UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo before kindly leaving me with some random magazine and going back downstairs to pay the receptionist. Katie came for me with a walkbelt and Forced me to walk into the gym. Physio today: four laps walking along hallway, fifteen sit-to-stands, work for Ela doing Chinese six and standing balance @ the parallel bars for about 6.5mins.
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me once more to the loo then tootled me off to Garbo to meet Mrs. Dent @ the Coffee Club for lunch! 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.
-At Garbo, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk into the Coffee Club, where we found these comfy leather sofa seats!
-When Mrs. Dent arrived, I was all ready to FINALLY get one plate of eggs benedict TO MYSELF (i.e. not share half with PIG mum), like she'd PROMISED I could, only she went back on her word, legislating that I was only allowed a small meal coz I was seeing Lei shifu for a massage afterwards! She then promised she'd lemme have one for myself the next time I had lunch @ the Coffee Club but didn't have a massage afterwards, and Mrs. Dent bore witness, so hopefully the food goal I've had since March 2013 will finally be met!! :D
So I tried asking for all these other different meals; all were turned down until finally PIG mum lemme have the one I had with Mrs. Dent when she took me to the Coffee Club back in 2010, when PIG mum had gone back to Hong Kong to take care of my most beloved grandma. Another argh was that she only lemme have a pineapple juice and not a shake. :o(
-The funny thing during lunch was PIG mum's yapping!! XD She yapped and yapped; Mrs. Dent finished her lunch while PIG mum was barely even halfway through hers, then PIG mum yapped, yapped and yapped some more so that when I'd finished my open grill AND my pineapple juice but she STILL wasn't much further through hers! XD Finally, I asked her could she please just focus on her lunch and let Mrs. Dent talk some herself. XD So while she wolfed down her food, Mrs. Dent told me Renee's pregnant with TWINS! and that Mr. Dent was @ home babysitting Lexi, who would be taking her nap soon.
-Afterwards, I went once to the loo, then saw Lei shifu for a comfy, if @ times ouchy, massage. PIG mum kindly went to buy me one sushi roll for arvo tea, then came back @ yapped @ Lei shifu.
-Massage over, I drank one mug of lemony watery tea and PIG mum took me once more to the loo before driving us home. While she drove - argh, fingers crossed I can bbl, else I'm owed FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES online!! ><
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Monday Post 162

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4484 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 115kcal or 1.96km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'The Lie of Omission' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-NINE MINUTES online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!! But just noting down that I had UQ physio this morning, PIG mum and I enjoyed lunch with Mrs. Dent @ the Garbo Coffee Club then I went and saw Lei shifu for a massage. Toms, I've got some kinda job interview! That means my torture session with Vincent the bloody physio will be in the afternoon, so hopefully I can grab some yummy lunch @ the Calamvale Chinese and BBQ restaurant first! Then Annette will come and supervise my shower @ 4pm. Anyways, hopefully bbl with today's events in detail, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 162b

Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 5738; D2's final, final report for tonight: 5738 steps also equals 143kcal or ... sorry, must've accidentally hit reset. XD But D2 reckons I'm more than half a normal person today, so ha. XD Anyways, final, final events for Sunday?
-PIG mum ordered I shower. Obviously, I washed and rinsed my own hair today, dried and rekitted myself. PIG mum only shook some baby powder over both feet and did Elf's AFO.
-After one more loo trip, PIG mum gleefully forced me to practise piano, fifteen minutes each per hand. i'll keep saying this, but I don't really mind, because I've always loved playing piano, even after the cruel and unfaithful God so wantonly tore away my ability to play even semi-decently. I wasn't half-bad, honest; it just makes me so very sad to see how I've been reduced to randomly bashing notes ... :o(
-Did PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela on simply ages of stupid exercises for her afterwards? Prolly, but I've honestly forgotten! XD
-It all culminated with me having to let the parents gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 600 steps on that bloody cross trainer.
-After one more loo trip, dinner was the yummy rice, but I've forgotten lotsa which vegetable! I know I had one chunk of tofu, some pork mince and a little barramundi, though.
-Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I happily read my book club novel for one full hour, reaching page 250 @ 8:25pm.
-At 8:45pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo then back online, both times rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Dad's on the sofa having a snore (literally XD) and PIG mum's upstairs using the computer herself.
-Late morning UQ physio with ... Kate, I think.
-And afterwards, PIG mum and I are meeting Mrs. Dent for lunch @ the Garbo Coffee Club! My hopes have risen: will I FINALLY  be able to eat one whole plate of eggs benedict to myself?? That's been my food goal since March 2013!!!
-Think PIG mum's got me down to see Lei shifu for a massage afterwards.
-And maybe it's Carol finally coming back to supervise my shower?
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Sunday Post 162

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 4319 steps today (which D2 very proudly reports as also equaling 107kcal or 1.88km XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Stabilising Peace' and thirdly, the spam count for the weekend's five. Righteo, events for today?
~Woo hoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:35am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 7:45am having a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance strength and endurance I needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided only she could be happy and/or satisfied. There wasn't any time to resume slweeping afterwards coz 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 I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with a minute dab of butter and blackberry jam, all my usual drugs :P, one full mug of water 9which I drank holding 'incorrectly' while both parents were upstairs changing) and another of yummy drinking mint chocolate. Originally, I was fretting that after I finished the four tins of that drinking mint chocolate I'd haveta wait until someone went to Tasmania before asking could they buy me several tins back, but now PIG mum says you can buy that @ Woolies! :D I also continued my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-After breakfast, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the 4WD, and she 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 any music coz she wanted peace and quiet so she could prepare her hear for God, then while she's driving (and I'm respecting her demand for silence by finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel) she starts gossiping about all the celebrity news she's been reading! Lol, that's rich. XD
-At church, PIG mum took me downstairs to the loo for two tinkles before leaving me in Bible study and returning back upstairs for the Canto service.
-Today, Uncle William taught the class about the common law God gave the Egyptians to follow after He brought them out from Egypt.
-After Bible study, PIG mum took me once to the loo, I grabbed two little quarter triangles of sandwich for morning tea then took a seat. Aunty joanne wandered over and said hi, as did that Aussie guy in my Bible study class; what's his name, Ben? He's thirty-one/thirty-two, lives in Mackenzie and orks in IT, BTW. The way he talks reminds me exactly of Glenn from Toastmasters!
-I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk up to English service, then she leaves for her very informal fellowship with the other church aunties; I think they only drink coffee and gossip!
-Yay, I was allowed to stay seated for worship again today~ I sang everything, plus the harmony for three songs, but like always, meant absolutely nothing.
-Speaker today was some Dr. Peter (I think), who talked about idols. Juliana sat beside me today~
-After service, I yakked with Aunty Jenny and Juliana (I'm jealous! At the little kiddies program today, Andrew got to make some crepe with M 'n' Ms!) until PIG mum came back from her drinks and gossip session with the other church aunties, took me once to the loo then tootled us off to the Warrigal Square Macas to have lunch with dearest dad before he went baddy playing~
-Today I got one chicken and cheese burger, one small orange and about eleven chips, although sadly without any ketchup. Stupid Maccas had run out! I've already complained on their Facebook page~ XD
-After lunch, PIG mum took me once tothe loo before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk around Woolies buying groceries. Ala, PIG mum was a party pooper who refused to have drinks @ Sakuraya with me. :o(
-Back home, I went once more to the loo (of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself), before 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. Also, dearest dad's just returned from baddy. :o) As for me, I doubt I can return online after dinner, so toms:
-Late morning UQ physio with ... what's her name, Kate, Katie?? XD
-Fingers crossed we can meet Mrs. Dent for lunch @ the Underwood Coffee Club! I'm hoping PIG mum'll FINALLY lemme enjoy one plate of eggs benedict by myself; that's been my food goal since March 2013!!
-PIG mum's also got me down to see Lei shifu for a massage around 2pm, I think. Fingers crossed she'll buy me one roll of sushi for arvo tea when I'm practising my nearly non-existent Chinese @ him! XD
-Maybe Carol Hart will finally come back and supervise my shower? I don't really mind; as long as some lady carer comes to supervise my showers, I don't really care who turns up~
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 162c

Good evening again, and one definite final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 5614, but alas, I'm not really half a normal person coz like 1761 of those steps were plodded @ FX last night; D2's final, final report for tonight: 5614 steps also equals 118kcal or 2.37km. XD Anyways, I'm just about to go watch X-Men: First Class now, so just lemme note down that I let the parents gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 600 steps on the bloody cross trainer for them, before I let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela on 20+ minutes of stupid exercises for her. After dinner, she then gleefully forced both hands to roll some kinda hard balls around, dunno. Toms is just church, definitely nothing special, but alas, it's looking like a lonely arvo in front of the computer for me coz Kwany's visit roster says I've got SHINE, but SHINE isn't meeting till next Saturday. :o( Oh wells, hoping to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 162b

Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3562; D2's probable final, final report for Saturday: 3562 steps also equals sixty-five kcal or 1.47km. XD Anyways, probable final, final events for tonight?
-When Annette announced her arrival exactly @ 4pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice hot shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (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). After side stepping to let Annette Annette tie my shoelaces for me, I went to the loo for two tinkles, also leaning against the side rail and slowly, softly but most hatefully singing about 28% of my shorter second favourite song softly out aloud.
-After going over to wash and dry Era, I let Annette Force me to walk out to the kitchen to prepare arvo tea. Along the hallway, I met dearest dad, where I grumbled @ him how he'd forgotten to buy the cheese he said he would when I rang him this morning. Dad laughed, saying I could eat his sultana bread instead. That was cool, until I nibbled away all the crust and took one bite of the inside: eep, peanut butter!! >< I grabbed my mug of mint green tea - my last and official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly' and swigged @ least half down, before telling Annette, "It had peanut butter; I've got a peanut allergy!" She looked worry. "Are you okay?" I reassured her, "Don't worry, I won't go into anahylactic shock or anything, but my lips might swell up, that's all."
-So Annette made another toastie for me, went to clean the bathroom then sat and massaged Ela for about forty minutes, painting her red with white spots today.
-Before leaving @ 6pm, Annette took me once more to the loo for three tinkles. She's back next Tuesday for two hours.
-Well, Aunty A should arrive for dinner soon~
-Doubt I'll return online tonight again, coz I've already enjoyed the PISSY two hours of net time that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to, so toms:
-Again, just church, definitely nothing special.
-Fingers crossed I can get some yummy lunch afterwards!
-And it's looking like a lonely arvo for me, coz Kwany's visit roster says I've got SHINE on, but I don't, coz SHINE will have some kinda home gathering next Saturday instead, so unless I can find something for toms arvo, I'm prolly gonna have a lonely arvo staring @ the computer ... :o( Anyways, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 162

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2776 steps today (remembering that like 1761 of those steps were plodded last night @ FX; D2 very proudly reports that 2276 steps also equals fifty-one kcal or 1.38km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Praying Jesus' Way (6)'. Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!
~After the usual dinner and one more loo trip, dad tootled me off to church for FX, When we arrived and I was heading downstairs he randomly chucked some cow @ me and pretended to leave! I just hugged the wall and inched along, hoping someone would be there to gimme a hand down the first step. Luckily, dad came to his senses and I made it into A1, where I sat on the most left.
-Only Bee orderedme over to the next row! I didn't wanna, coz that meant there'd be people sitting to my left who I couldn't see, but Bee said there wouldn't be many and walked me over there anyway.
-Charlsy led the singing last night; thankfully I remained seated throughout the singing.
-Last night, Hairy taught from that little booklet Two Ways To Live; it's about evangelism.
-Afterwards, Bee walked behind me once to the loo (I managed fine by myself) and back outside, where Hairy kindly grabbed a chair for me.
-Charlsy made mini toasties with cheese, Bacon (not just ham!) and SHALLOTS! I had two/three for supper, plus some green and orange jelly.
-Dad came to take me home, but instead of us leaving, he sat there and yakked to Sylvia jie jie. When she left, he came and accused ME of being long-winded! Lol, Hairy and I were just talking about our Chinese language skills.
-Dad tootled us home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz.~
-Today: woo hoo, another awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:25am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend 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 snorings resumed afterwards with Daddy Bear untilPIG mum came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work. I also used the pot :P once more and after she's gone, spend another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the angel/saint, asking him to please help me get through today okay.
-Daddy Bear and I continue our happy snorings together, until nature suddenly calls around 8:30am. I swing myself over to the pot :P and start tinkling. The next second, "Oh crap! DAD!!" Turns out PIG mum had emptied the pot :P before leaving for work and forgot to put it back in; idiot me had forgotten to check before going! ><
-Never mind, dad comes to the rescue with a mop, then it's back to happy snorings with Daddy Bear. Only dad suddenly comes in with the phone! "I'm going to the butchers," he explains, placing the phone beside my pillow. "Here's the phone, in case anyone calls." And lol, someone does!
me, sleepily, "Hello?"
A familiar voice replies. "Good morning, Ling!"
I laugh, replying, "Good morning, Uncle Calvin, I'm Emily. Mum's working this morning."
"Gosh, you sound just like her! Hey, where's your dad?'
"He's just gone out to the butchers. Try his mobile; you should reach him."
"Oh, okay, cool, thanks, bye!"
-Dad returns home around 9:30pm and lets Barb in @ 9:55am before leaving again. Me, I refuse to get outta bed until 11:15am, although Barb does try her hardest. Daddy Bear just tells her to shoo. XD
-I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, Barb gets me kitted then I let her Force me to walk over to the bathroom. Thanks to Barb who squirted me some toothpaste.
-After drinking one mug of water - my first for today to hold 'incorrectly', I go and do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-once that's finished, I walk over to wash and dry Era, before I allow Barb to Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
--Thanks to dearest dad who's left me some ham and eggs, and thanks to Barb who's added one slice of cheese for me and cooked the bread yummy. I also savour my weekly mug of white tea, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, and suck the teabag once. :P
-Suddenly, Aunty katherine arrives @ 11:15am! I quickly wolf down the rest of breakfast before she teaches me about pandas!
-At midday, Barb takes me once to the loo and makes me one mug of yummy milo, my third for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After Aunty Katherine leaves, Barb takes me once more to the loo. Suddenly, the phone rings, and Barb answers it. "Hello, Emily's phone," she says. XD
-It's dad, saying he'll be late. He asks Barb to cook me one packet of two minute noodles for lunch. She offers me the maggi and the Asian nissan, I think. I choose the bigger one, of course. XD
-After she leaves, I'm happily eating and reading my Toastmasters magazine when the phone rings. It's Barb. "Oh, sorry, I forgot to put your book out for you!" she exclaims. "Would you like me to come back and get it for you?" I reassure her I'm fine; I've got my Toastmasters magazine to keep me company, after all.
-Over lunch, I ring and talk to Aunty Nga, who moans that she's really tired and Mickey's being a super brat, mimicking whatever she's saying. "I have an idea," I say, "Say, Em biu jie's much more well behaved than Fung Sum Ming (Mickey's real name)." She does, and Mickey repeats it word for word! Ha, Em biu jie 1, mickey Fung 0. XD
-After I get off the phone, I read until 1:50pm, then take myself once to the loo before walking myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Annette should come supervise my shower soon.
-Toms: just church, nothing special. Actually, I've forgotten: is SHINE fellowship on/will I be getting some visitors/just spend a lonely arvo staring @ the computer? Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl once more just after 6pm, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Friday Post 191c

Good evening and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Em's definite final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4495; D2's final, final report for tonight: 4355 steps also equals 124kcal or 1.95km. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-For lunch today, PIG mum and I both had two baked fish, one with one line of mayo, the other with one line of tartare sauce. We both drank one mug of rice green tea; I sucked the teabag once. XD
-After one more loo trip (of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything myself), I walked myself slowly and safely to the 4WD, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-While she drove, Era helped Ela stretch for ten minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm seventy-five times, holding each for a count of five.
-Pincushion practice was annoying (the usual bed wasn't available, meaning I needed a footstool to climb onto the high bed) and painful, but on the bright side, Kelly (I think that's her name XD) gave me two jellybeans, one orange and one green!
-When PIG mum tootled us home, Era again helped Ela stretch for ten minutes before Ela again opened and closed her palm seventy-five times, holding each for a count of five.
-Back home, I plopped briefly online until Aunty Lucia announced her arrival slightly after 4pm. I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-So a nice hot shower for me - I washed my hair today, but thanks to Aunty Lucia who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got very lightly creamed and had another tinkle. When Aunty Lucia rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was endlessly yapping XD and one final tinkle when she was repinning D2 onto my pants for me.
-I let Aunty Lucia Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where arvo tea was the second half of the yummy naan I'd started for breakfast and one mug of yummy peppermint tea, my official mug for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-Before Aunty Lucia left, I used the loo once more. When nature called again @ 6pm and 6:25pm, both times I took myself 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 FX tonight!
-Toms: expect a pissy plodding total, coz I'm staying @ home all day. Barb will come from 10am till 1pm, then Annette will come from 4pm till 6pm. Hope she's feeling all better now, she had a headache last time she was here (Tuesday).
-Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
