Wednesday Post 194

Good morning! Firstly, Em's been hard @ work plodding 2688 steps today (remembering that like 721 of those steps were plodded last night @ Toastmasters; D2 very proudly reports that 2688 steps also equals fifty-seven kcal or 1.16km XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's "Don't Lose Your Compassionate Edge (1)' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed FIFTY-FOUR MINUTES online tonight!! Anyways, let's start with yesterday's events first!
-When Roxana announced her arrival just before 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. Then I returned online to enjoy my last bit of time online before going with Roxana 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 last tinkle when she was washing my glasses for me.
-Roxana and I held hands, and I walked out to the gobbling :P table together. Arvo tea was leftovers from lunch, plus one mug of tea, white and two, my last and official mug for Tuesday to hold 'incorrectly'.
-After cleaning the bathroom, Roxana sat and massaged Ela for twenty minutes, while I finished eating and read Divergent for ten minutes.
-At 5:30pm, PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland and Roxana and I left for Toastmasters. We made good time, arriving just before 6pm, although I got to listen to the first news article from Seven's simulcast while roxana was asking someone for directions to the new building.
-Last night, Leonard's dad attended, Con picked me for Table Topics and Viktor evaluated, saying I did a brilliant job! :o) Next week's speechfest, and Neil's decided I should be Toastmaster! Well, I guess all I can do is to hope the speeches go so overtime, there'll be no time for general evaluation so I won't get evaluated!
-Afterwards, Roxana took me once more to the loo, then tootled me back to the Warrigal Square Maccas, where we both ate a Happy Meal each! I had been so excited, coz PIG mum hadn't said I was only allowed an orange juice with my Happy Meal and I was gonna get a milkshake when Roxana says, "Your mum said you're only allowed a milkshake." Meaniepoo! ><
-Roxana's back on Thursday for my fortnightly Garbo trip! As for me, I went back onto the computer to note down plodding totals for the new Toastmasters block (apparently, we'll be there next Tuesday also) then repeat the usual nightly events and zzz.
-Today: Woohoo, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:40am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7:50am 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.
-Dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work not long after that; luckily, PIG mum didn't come in, throw my clothes on the bed and demand I get dressed before flouncing back out before I'd already counted eleven minutes, so after she left I just lay back down and enjoyed my last four minutes before getting myself kitted, then swinging myself over to the pot :P for three tinkles while waiting for her to come back.
-After PIG mum had helped me with Elf's AFO and my laces, I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the bathroom, where I brushed teeth and used the loo once quickly before walking myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Breakfast was one slice of toast with literally the merest dab of butter and yummy strawberry jam ever, one yummy mug of mint drinking chocolate, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water, which I'll admit to holding 'incorrectly' and draining while PIG mum was upstairs changing. Over breakfast, 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 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 97.3FM all day, too.While she drove, I kept both eyes closed and finished my mostly silent conversation 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 fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-At UQ, PIG um took me to the loo once then immediately walked me inside the gym.
-Physio with Brad today: weight bearing for Elf, reaching for Era, stepping for Erf and Elf, more reaching for Era, four laps walking along hallway, cone and piano work for Ela. Sorry, not Brad, Jake! brad's left. XD
-Afterwards, PIG mum took me again to the loo before driving us back 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 walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Aunty Deana's here now; PIG mum's gone out to Woolies for some grocery shopping. Aunty Deana says I'll eat lunch first before she supervises my shower.
-Coz @ 4pm, PIG mum's taking me out to Epic for that afternoon tea with employers where I'm the greeter! Fingers crossed somebody will FINALLY offer me a paid job; the parents' wedding anniversary arrives @ the end of August and I'm running low on cash, I think ... ><
-Toms: it's my fortnightly Garbo trip with Roxana, yay! :D Hopefully she'll be punctual, I'm meeting Anna for lunch @ midday and also fingers crossed dearest dad'll take us out somewhere for dinner toms night! Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
