Saturday Post 165b

Heylo again from the mainframe! Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1742, remembering that like 1631 of those steps were plodded @ FX last night. Righteo, let's start with last night's events first!
~After letting PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela on ages of stupid exercises for her, letting the parents gleefully FORCE :( me to plod 700 steps on the bloody cross trainer for them, dinner and one more loo trip, dad tootled me off to FX!
-Thanks to Jeff who gave me his seat when I got inside; I started finding sponsors for Walk the Wall right away.
-Last night, the BST students led the program! First, we went around introducing ourselves and what we did during our spare time. I sat out the next game coz it involved standing, but then we all sat in groups and made collages from old magazines, answering a question displayed on the projector! I answered the question, "What has your spiritual walk with God been like?"; cutting out a boxing glove then a woman with her teeth gritted, I answered and explained the question\ like, "God knocked me down and out 7.5 years ago. That's why I've got gritted teeth and a pained expression."
-We ended with prayer. Afterwards, Julz walked behind me once to the loo (where I managed fine by myself) then I joined everyone else for supper. Thanksa to karson who got a chair for me to sit on, and someone who passed me one little cup of apple crumble with custard! Julz also walked behind me so I could get myself one lamington.
-Then I chatted with Esther before dad came to drive me home. How creepy, the UQ nutrition students use cadavers for prac! Apparently, you can note in your will that you're donating your body to UQ for research; Esther tells me they're treated with respect.
-Dad drove me home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz~
-Today: I use the pot :P once last night and once this morning, before spending ten minutes having 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.
-A brief sleep recommences before PIG mum hits me with some eye goo and leaves for work. I use the pot :P once more and spend another ten minutes after she's gone continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay.
-More sleeping and two more pot :P trips for me, before Rhi arrives. Wow, she lets me snuggle in bed for THIRTY more minutes! :D When I ask why, she's like, "Oh, coz today's officially my last shift with you." Only the other carer didn't turn up! Must remember to e-mail Jacinta and ask what happened.
-So Rhi gets me kitted, and I go to brush teeth. After draining one full mug of water - my first to hold 'incorrectly', I go and do a stinky unspeakable, also fully leaning against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.
-After I wash and dry Era, I let Rhi Force me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Thanks to dad who's made some eggs and ham; thanks also to Rhi who cooked the bread yummy and added one slice of cheese for me. My yummy mug of white tea, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, is my second for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-While Rhi goes and cleans my room, I finish breakfast and start reading our new book club novel; it's non-fiction, about Osamabin Laden!
-At midday, Rhi takes me once to the loo for three tinkles then makes us both mugs of mint drinking cocolate; my third for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-I ring Aunty Lai and chat with her for about eight minutes; next I try ringing Aunty Nga, only for Annie jie jie to tell me she's gone out grocery shopping.
-Rhi makes me fried rice for lunch, plus another mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, my fourth for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
--Aunty Jo comes and teaches me translation! today we discussed going through customs @ the airport. We also made a cupcake, that was literally made with a cup and cooked inside the microwave!
-When Aunty Jo left, I took myself once slowly and safely to the toilet before plopping online, both times rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
-Annette's coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm, then Aunty A's coming over for dinner @ 6:45pm. I'm planning to watch the Broncos' do or die game against Benny's Knights tonight!
-Toms: just church, nothing special. Hopefully I'll find lots more sponsors for Walk the Wall, and can have lunch with peoples somewhere yummy afterwards! Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl one more time after Annette leaves @ 6pm, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
