Monday Post 174d

One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em’s final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3783. righteo, final, final events for tonight?

-        After finishing the previous post, I immediately went and started this week’s uni work.

-        At 9pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Toms: well, Ela’s 1.5hr session @ the NAB (hope I get a good new student!) isn’t till like 1:30pm; think PIG mum said I was getting a haircut toms? She likes taking me to JIT Style Cuts @ Calamvale Central coz it’s quieter there and there’s often no waiting required. Wonder if she’ll lemme sleep in a bit first or get me up after dearest dad leaves for work and demand that I continue study for her? Either or, I’m not fussed. Fingers crossed we can grab lunch @ Calamvale Central, though~

-        Oh! At the NAB, I must remember to ask the new student/the eacher can I please watch the Melbourne Cup once my session ends! I checked today; the race is held @ 3pm!

-        Michelle’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm; hope she’s nice! Well, the English lady @ CODA said she’ll prolly ring on Wednesday and find out how we fared together.

-        Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Good evening again! Em’s new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3716. anyways, continuing events for Monday?

-        When dearest dad arrived home, turns out PIG mum had locked the safety bolt! But I walked myself slowly and safely to the door, unlocking it to let him in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        The moment I opened the door for dearest dad, he immediately showed me the new bowl he picked up from the Salvos. Lol, dad likes randomly going places and bringing home random stuff~ ^^

-        Alas, once I sat back down, dad was like, “Use the cross trainer.” Argh, I actually went 805 steps on the stupid thing (the bloody counter doesn’t work accurately and I will most definitely be singing myself to sleep tonight, CSREW counting! ><)

-        And if that wasn’t already bad enough, I then had to let the parents gleefully FORCE L me on that vibrating machine for ten minutes! The manual booklet said that one could SIT on it; dunno why dad demanded I stand… argh, why won’t the parents refuse to understand how much I HATES standing practice!!! ><

-        After a complete set change of clothes, dinner tonight was: the yummy rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, some yummy tofu, two sweet big chunks of carrot, two wee chunks of tasty pork and one small but delicious chunk of BBQ chook.

-        Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup before I walked myself slowly and safely online, again 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 (it’s 8:40 now) with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 174b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2217. righteo, potential final, final events for Monday?

-        When Kim announced her arrival two minutes early, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, always 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 also sang 30% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.

-        I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (thanks to Kim who helped me dry my back, Era and both legs), mostly creamed myself (again, thanks to Kim who kindly helped me cream my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (thanks to Kim who helped with Erf’s sock, Elf’s AFO and both laces; yay, I’ve had one day break from shoelace tying~). After using the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea.

-        Pity that Kim wouldn’t lemme have a white tea but oh well. Green tea for us; I ate one yummy banana.

-        I kept reading the book club novel, and finished it! Since Kim was sitting besides me gently massaging Ela (Ela was massaged for fifty-five minutes and painted red with yellow spots), when I asked PIG mum to please fetch a new book for me, she went to the bookshelf located behind the computer and got me this Jodi Picoult one! I can’t remember who I got it from, but it’s about some lawyer that defens an Amish client. Sounds interesting!

-        After watching the sports report, Kim takes me once more to the loo for one tinkle and sticks a pyjama top me me before leaving. She’s back Thursday for my fortnightly outing; fingers crossed she will really take me to the city!!

-        Toms: well, UQ physio (with a new student!) isn’t till 2pm; fingers crossed my new student’s nice! Also, I wanna watch the Melbourne Cup; it’s run @ 3pm! Hopefully the NAB has a running television somewhere …

-        Then some new carer’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm! Hope she’s nice; her name’s Danielle Price.

-        Better go do some online study now; PIG mum’s already rousing @ me… Guess I’m doomed to fail. >< *sigh* Anyways, hopefully bbl tonight, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 174

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 2217 steps and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Be Careful What You Watch’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTES online after Kim leaves @ 6pm!!! Anyways, events for today?

~ Yay, 8^th awesome consecutive sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:40am, and after one pot :P trup Daddy Bear and I immediately snuggled and snored, coz I wanted to fall asleep then use the pot :P once more when dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work around one hour later!

- Nature called again one hour later, and when I used the pot :P once more, I could already hear dearest dad moving about downstairs. No point trying to fall back asleep, then, I just lay in bed and started a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

- After dearest dad came and kissed me bye, Daddy Bear and I cuddled and snored for about another hour, me waking to use the pot :P once more when PIG mum starts a-THUMPING around downstairs.

- She comes into my room and helps me with slightly with a bra, then leaves me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I do after giving myself fifteen more minutes and use the pot :p once more first.

- PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO and my laces, after which I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Afterwards, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

- That done, I wash and dry Era before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Breakfast’s about one bowl of plain porridge with one chunk of unbuttered bread ripped into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P (alas that I haveta let  horrid PIG gleefully force poor Ela to hold onto the pill bottle while Era unscrews and rescrews the lid, but I’m not really minding coz I’m seated and can fully concentrate) and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

- Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully force me to walk out to the Camry, and she tootles me off to see Uncle Tom the Chinese herbalist for some left limb massage and acupuncture. Of course, while he’s treating me, I’m lying there silently and just listening to her yap. XD

- That done, PIG mum takes me once to the loo (think she refuses to go to centre management and get the keys for the disabled toilet just coz she likes watching me struggle to manage in the normal toilets *sigh*), before we buy fruit from Bellas and lunch from Subway. The two wraps for ten bucks deal has finished; PIG mum just buys us a chicken footlong sub to share.

- Back home, I use the loo once for one tinkle, pop onto Facebook to ask Selena if she’s free to pick me up after the next writers group meeting (coz both Aunty Carly and Aunty Jo are unavailable), kiss dearest dad bye (he usually comes back home for lunch every Monday) then hop back into the Camry, where PIG mum tootles me off to see Vincent the physio for my weekly torture session.

- Physio today: sat first go, then stood most session. Reaching for both hands, weight shifting, bent down like sixteen times to retrieve an object on the floor.

- Back home, I used the loo once more for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

- Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm today; fingers crossed she’ll lemme drink a white tea with two sugars and that I’ll get to read for another whole hour today!

- UQ physio (1.5 hrs for Ela) isn’t until like 2pm; presumably I’ll buy groceries with PIG  mum toms.

- Oh! Hopefully the NAB has a TV; I wanna watch the Melbourne Cup being run @ 3pm!

- So hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Sunday Post 174

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 3568 steps (phew, just over two grand XD); secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘The Bible Formula For Happiness’ and thirdly, the spam count for the weekend’s thirty-four. Anyways, events for today?

~ Lol, PIG mum spoiled my week of awesome consecutive sleeps this morning @ 12:05am, when she was WALKING AROUND REALLY LOUDLY downstairs in her slippers! XD I’m just glad I’d already achieved another whole week’s worth of awesome sleeps first~ :o)

-        Nature called again around 6:30am; after one pot :P Daddy Bear and I cuddled, immediately trying to fall back asleep, coz iwanted to squeeze in one more pot :P trip before PIG mum entered my room!

-        Success~ Even better, for the third day straight, PIG mum helped me slightly with a tee, even though I know full well I’ll haveta do that all myself when I shower later today and toms morning.

-        After I get myself mostly kitted, PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO and both laces. I know it’s only coz she doesn’t wanna be late for service today, and doubtless I’ll be tying them myself when I shower later today.

That all done, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). That done, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

-        After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Breakfast is around one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of unbuttered toast shredded into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also continue my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

Breakfast over, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the Camry, and she tootles me off to church. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, and she won’t lemme turn the music on, coz she ‘wants to prepare her heart to worship God’, whatever that means. Her choice, I just spend the short car trip with both eyes closed, finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude! Actually, until the intersection with Logan Road, I’m telling God to please just eff off and leave me alone if He’s not gonna fully heal me. *sigh*

-        At church, I use the loo once then join Bible study class, where there are two newcomers today! We study First kings chapter twenty-one.

-        After Bible study ends, I use the loo once more, grab a biscuit and take a seat. I also get a slice of cake: today’s Granny Wan’s 86^th birthday!

-        Time for service, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk up to the main hall for service. After I sit down, she rushes off for yum cha with all the other church aunties who can’t be bothered attending Bible study like my dearest dad does.

-        Yay, I get to stay seated for worship again today~ I sing everything I know, plus the harmony for two songs while Era and Ela clap along for another, but like every other week, mean absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

-        Speaker today’s Pastor Chris; his sermon’s about baptism coz after he delivers it, he baptises Tina!

-        That’s why we have luncheon together afterwards to celebrate that~ Thanks to Uncle Chong who gives me a hand down the stairs; I use the loo once myself then thanks to Ross who walks behind me so I can grab myself some Subway (one three inch sub, one mini chicken wrap), some fried rice (yum!) and some pasta salad for lunch. Ross comes back with some fish and chips for himself; he gives me one chip and one lil crumbed octopus!

-        During lunch, I sit with Vinnie, Tina’s brother (sudden mental blank; I’ve forgotten his name, sorry! ><’ XD Tony, his wife (she’s one year older than me) and Ross. Too bad I eat so slowly; there were all thes chocolate type desserts, too! ‘Twas all gone by the time I’d finally finished eating. XD

-        After I rang PIG mum to please come pick me up, I asked Becca please to help me once to the loo, where I managed fine by myself.

-        When PIG mum got here, I let her gleefully FORCE L to walk all the way back upstairs to the 4WD, and she tootled me back home. You’d think coz she chose not to listen to anything for the drive to church that the music choice would bemine for the drive home, but no, PIG mum gleefully forced me to listen to that nasally Andy Hui1 my ears are still ringing. XD

-        Back home, I used the loo once more for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Toms: prolly won’t have MSG coz poor Pastor Grace’s feeling crook. Just a late morning appointment to see Uncle Tom the Chinese herbalist for some left limb massage and acupuncture, then back home for lunch with dearest dad, before an early afternoon torture session with Vincent the physio. Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm, so fingers crossed she’ll lemme drink white tea with two sugars and that I’ll get to read for one whole hour today! Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing week!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

-         P.S. alas, this arvo and tonight was crap. >< I had to let awful PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk outside and gleefully force poor Ela to take down the day's washing; argh, I HATES standing practice! Even worse, she chucked a complete cow @ me and wouldn't lemme eat the chariu bun she'd brought home for me! >< Instead, there was more standing practice for me when I had to let her gleefully force poor Ela wash the day's dishes. Meaning I'm very definitely SINGING myself to sleep tonight; SCREW counting! >< Hence why I sang 40% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully whilst showering, opening both eyes for all the importantr numbers. *sigh*

Saturday Post 174d

Good evening again, and one final greeting for tonight! Em’s final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1214. again, don’t ask me how I passed 1000 steps without leaving the house today; I’ll prolly post less than 1000 steps toms even though I’m going out! XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

-        At 9pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Toms: again, just church, definitely nothing special. Oh, wait, the special thing’s Tina will get baptised and we’re having a luncheon afterwards to celebrate! After I finish this post I’d better check whether we’re buying our own lunch/will someone buy lunch for us, then \we pay back cash!

-        Don’t have any plans for the arvo … may spend another lonely arvo staring @ the computer until PIG mum falls down from pigland and orders that I go shower. XD

-        Anyways, hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday Post 174c

Good evening! Em’s new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1143. lol, don’t ask me how I passed 1000 steps today without leaving the house! XD Anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

-When PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland, she immediately and gleefully forced me offline. To stall for time, I used the loo for one tinkle first.

- Then I had to let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to stand and use the Wii Fit for her for like twenty-five minutes; argh, I HATES standing practice! >< Actually, I got out of some coz stupid Elf starting hurting, and PIG mum lemme sit back down so she could check my ankle. Well, tomorrow’s a new week; again, I just hope for ONE BLOODY DAY where PIG mum won’t gleefully force me on any stupid standing exercises for her …

- Thankfully, PIG mum didn’t order me back onto the Wii balance board; instead, she gleefully forced Ela to play Wii Sports Resort for awhile. I didn’t really mind, coz I was seated and could fully concentrate. Besides, it’s amusing to see how excited PIG mum gets while I play for her. XD

- When Aunty A arrived and dad called dinner, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

- Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, two enormous chunks of sweet carrot, two Chinese mushrooms and two small slices of coral trout. Over dinner, I told Aunty A about having the bird on my head, dad showed her the photo from his phone and Aunty A shared this joke she’d told recently @ some conference.

- Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

- Anyways, fingers crossed I can brb after one final loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope to see everyone @ church!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday Post 174b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Saturday! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 701. righteo, potential final, final events for Saturday?

-        When Kim announced her arrival two minutes early, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, always 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 wash and dry my hair today. I also sing my shorter second-favourite song 29% through softly, slowly but most hatefully, and realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.

-        After flipping the nice hot water off, I mostly dried myself (thanks to Kim who helped me dry my back, both legs and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, thanks to Kim who helped me dry my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (thanks to Kim who helped with Erf’s sock, Elf’s AFO and both shoelaces; score, I got one day off today from having to practise tying them~). Then I went over to the loo, and after Kim gave me one mug of water, did a messy stinky unspeakable. Hmm … they tend to be messy after I have Besta’s fried rice for lunch; maybe she uses too much oil?

-        After washing and drying Era, I head outside for arvo tea, one yummy banana and one mug of green tea.

-        Instead of reading, I decide I’d better finish my letter to nana! Kim cleans the bathroom then comes back and gently massages Ela for forty-five minutes, painting her purple with dark blue spots today.

-        After we watch the sports report together (channel Ten’s such a cheat: they didn’t broadcast the Kangaroos mighty victory over the Bravehearts until after the horseracing and the cricket! PIG mum explains it’s because channel nine broadcasts the rugby league; it’ll prolly be the first for their sports report.) I use the loo once more before signing Kim off with my thanks and byes. She’s back Monday.

-        The parents have just returned from their walk and Aunty A’s coming over for dinner tonight, so fingers crossed I can bbl afterwards, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday Post 174

Good morning! Firstly, today I’ve only been hard @ work plodding 491 steps (obviously, I haven’t left the house today!) and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘A Joyful Outlook’. Anyways, events for today?

~ Yay, 7^th, straight consecutive awesome sleep last night! I’ve totally lost count; maybe it’s like the 7^th time this year I’ve enjoyed one entire consecutive WEEK of awesome sleeps?? Anyways, nature didn’t call till like 6:35am and after one pot :P trip, Daddy Bear and I tried to immediately fall back asleep again coz I wanted to use the pot :P once more when PIG mum left for work @ 7:30am!

- Didn’t matter that I remained awake, listening to the parents be noisy as they prepared and had breakfast downstairs. After PIG mum hit me with the eye goo before leaving for work, I used the pot :P once and then spent ten minutes starting a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

- After PIG mum left, Daddy Bear and I cuddled, continuing our happy snorings together, with me waking twice more for the pot :P after the second trip around 9:30am, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

-        When Besta arrives to mind me for three hours around 10am, dad enters my room and asks me, “Em, get up now?’ in response, I use Daddy Bear and give him Bear Bum. XD Besta laughs, telling dad, “You got Bear Bum. Fifteen more minutes first.” XD

-        After dearest dad leaves for church and I count down my fifteen more minutes, Besta comes back into my room and I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles. The first thing I tell Besta about’s my latest dream!

-        After Besta gets me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Besta who squirts me out some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her once-weekly reprieve.

Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

-        After washing and drying Era, I head outside to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Thanks to dearest dad who fried some spam ham and eggs for breakfast; thanks also to Besta who cooked the bread yummy and gave me one WHOLE sandwich and not just half! I also enjoyed my first mug of white tea with two sugars, sucking the teabag once. XD

-        Then I crash on the sofa and watch the first Tri-Nations rugby league match that PIG mum kindly taped for me this morning! Well, she must’ve set it last night; the game was played @ like 6am this morning; ‘twas still Friday night over there!

-        The Kangaroos were always bound to win! At midday, I used the loo for one tinkle; thanks to Besta who made one mug of lukewarm Milo for me. During half time, I rang and chatted with Aunty Lai for like thirteen minutes, but couldn’t reach Aunty Nga coz Annie jie jie said she was out.

-        At 12:55pm, Besta took me once more to the loo for two tinkles, before leaving me with one full bowl of yummy fried rice and another mug of white tea with two sugars (another teabag to suck. XD) As I ate, I finished watching the game’s second-half; Australia won big! Then, coz it wasn’t time to use the loo and pop online yet, I started penning my letter to nana.

-        At 1:50pm, I took myself slowly and safely to the loo for two tinkles, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Then I walked myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm today. Fingers crossed I’ll get one happy hour of reading in, she won’t order me on shoelace tying practice and will lemme drink one more mug of white tea! But if none of those things happen, oh well.

-        Toms: just church, nothing special. Oh, the special thing can be that Tina’s getting baptised and we’re having a luncheon to celebrate that! Dunno what’s happening in the arvo … may just spend a lonely afternoon staring @ the computer until PIG mum tumbles downstairs from pigland and orders that I take a shower. XD Anyways, hopefully bbl after Kim leaves, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 224d

One final good evening! Firstly, the final, final spam count for the week’s now seventy-nine and secondly, Em’s final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2220. lol, I’m tempted to stand up, walk two small steps forward then sit back down, to make my final, final plodding total for Friday 2222! XD Anyways, final, final events for Friday?

-        At 9pm, I walk myself once more to the loo slowly and safely and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Actually, I may not have gone till 9:01pm/9:02pm coz I was busy finishing my current game of Bejeweled. XD

-        Toms: expect a pissy plodding total from me coz I’m not going out. Besta’s coming to mind me from 10am till 1pm then Kim’s doing the same from 4pm till 6pm. Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 224c

Good evening! Em’s new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2051. ha, I’m just over two grand. XD Anyways, continuing events for Friday?

-        Era washed and dried, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Breakfast might have been about one bowl of plain porridge with one chunk of unbuttered bread torn into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one little half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also finish my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

-        After breakfast, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the 4WD, and she tootles me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, we also listen to 97.3FM all day and today, Era helps Ela stretch for forty minutes, before Ela opens and closes her palm 250x, holding each for a count of five.

-        Physio today: roughly ten sit-to-stands, weightshifting, work inside the parallel bars, swinging Elf and just standing on Elf.

-        After one more loo trip, I munch half a yummy chicken toastie as PIG mum drives me to someplace near Garden City for a massage from someone Aunty Irene recommends, because Aunty Ann’s gone overseas!

-        Lol, I’ve forgotten the guy’s name (sth like Ray?) but he’s from somewhere like Malaysia and I bet, many generations ago, our relatives were cousins, coz his surname’s Chen! He gave me some acupuncture and massage and I’ll see him again next week coz Aunty Ann’s still not back yet.

-        Back home, I used the loo once then walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        When Aunty Lucia announced her arrival, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Lol, she’s bossy: when I reached the front door, I called through it, “Good afternoon, who’s there?” like dad had ordered me to do, and she replies rather imperiously, “It’s me. Lemme in.” XD

-        So a nice hot shower for me – I wash my hair today, but thanks to Aunty Lucia who rinses it out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

-        I have one tinkle before I flip the nice hot water off, get dried, very lightly creamed and rekitted.

-        Back outside, Aunty Lucia washes some blueberries for my arvo tea. When she leaves I use the loo once more for two tinkles then walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        I was happy to stay online until dinner; alas that awful PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland, immediately and gleefully forced me offline.

-        I then had to let her gleefully FORCE L me to use the Wii for like nineteen minutes; argh, I HATES standing practice! >< I can only hope that PIG mum will be too exhausted from her half day’s work that she’ll remain sleeping after Kim leaves @ 6pm and not get up till dad gets back home and calls dinner.

-        However, I actually got out of the last ten minutes coz I went instead and did a stinky unspeakable. XD

-        Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa lettuce, a wee bit of yummy BBQ chook and maybe some carrot? Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup before I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Nature suddenly called @ 7:58pm, and I took myself slowly and safely to the loo, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Anyways, hopefully brb following one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for tonight, the final,final spam count for the week, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 224b

Heylo again, and potentially one final greeting for Friday! Firstly, Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 1695 and secondly, the potential final, final spam count for the week’s now seventy-six. Anyways, events for today?

-=~Woo hoo, 6^th awesome consecutive sleep last night1 nature didn’t call until the noisy garbage truck rumbled down our road @ 6;05am and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:15am starting a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

- Daddy Bear and I cuddled and continued our happy snorings together, me waking to use the pot :P once more when dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work @ 7:45am.

- More happy snorings for Daddy Bear and I resumed, me waking to use the pot :P once more shortly after 9am, when PIG mum starts a-THUMPING around upstairs. Not long afterwards, she’s downstairs and helping me very slightly with a bra. I’m going, “Score!” because dearest dad chose that time to randomly come home, meaning PIG mum also helped me with a tee. Besta definitely will toms and there’s a high chance PIG mum will the day after also, coz dad usually hasn’t left for church yet, so yay for that~

- After dearest dad’s left again, PIG mum comes to help not only with Elf’s AFO but my laces, meaning I also get a reprieve from shoelace tying today! that all done, I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela; don’t worry, I remind her that she’ll get her once weekly reprieve tomorrow). Afterwards, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also fully leaning against the side rail and continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

cheers,

em. ^^

Friday Post 224

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 1446 steps; secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Try to Make Amends’ and thirdly, the spam count for the week’s seventy-five but fourthly and way most importantly, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTEEN MINUTES online after Aunty Lucia leaves around 5pm!!! But just noting down that I enjoyed my 6^th awesome sleep last night (bid Daddy Bear sweet dreams, fell asleep and didn’t wake until the noisy garbage truck thundered down our road @ 6:05am) then had my last ever UQ physio session with Marnie. Munched half a yummy chicken toastie when PIG mum tootled me off to see Raymond; he’s a chinese herbalist like Uncle Tom but does massage like Aunty Ann! I told him we must’ve been cousins many generations back, coz his surname’s Chen while mine’s Chan! XD Came home and PIG mum rushed off to Centrelink coz they’ve for some reason gone and cancelled my disability support pension! >< Aunty Lucia’s coming to mind me for one hour around 4pm and toms, expect a pissy plodding total from me coz I’m not going out. Besta will come mind me between 4pm and 6pm (while she’s here, I’ve gotta pen a letter to nana) then Kim’s coming to do the same from 4pm till 6pm. Anyways, hopefully bbl with today’s events in more detail, else hope everyone has a smashing week!

Cheers,

Thursday Post 224b

Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for Thursday! Firstly, Em’s final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1495 (lol, I’m sure I’ll pass 1500 someday XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY MINUTES online for another time!!! >< *sigh* But just noting down that I had to let dad gleefully FORCE L me to plod 800 steps on the bloody cross trainer for him (but I really went 825 and will most definitely sing myself to sleep tonight; SCREW counting! ><) and we went out to Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong for dinner. I got: a small half bowl of vermicelli, almost (but not quite) one bowl of rice, 1.5 bowls of yummy congee and the small half of a hot Horlicks. Toms I’ve got my last UQ physio session with Marnie before I see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage. Think it’s Aunty Lucia coming to mind me for one hour around 4pm. Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Thursday Post 224

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 1175 steps and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Praying According to God’s Will’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I finish marking all these competition entries! But just noting down that horrid PIG mum ruined my streak of awesome sleeps night but I still had a great time @ writers group and afterwards I ate loaded fries with gravy and a cheeseburger! Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm and toms will be my last UQ physio session with Marnie; wonder if PIG mum’ll lemme try one hour on the treadmill? Seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage then I can never remember whether it’s Aunty Lucia or Aunty Kitty coming to mind me for one hour around 4pm. Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Cheers,

Wednesday Post 224d

One final good evening! Em’s final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2423. righteo, final, final events for tonight?

-        Argh, I had to let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to stand for forty-five minutes and use the Wii Fit for her; argh, I HATES standing practice! But I suppose yesterday I got a break from not having to do any standing practice for her; guess I should be grateful. Fingers crossed that she’s simply too buggered after work toms to gleefully force me on any stupid standing exercises for her … *sigh*

-        Before dinner tonight, I took myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa yummy kalian, one big chunk of sweet carrot and three tiny chunks of yummy chicken, which I saved for last, of course. Oh, and maybe some lobok?

-        Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        At 9pm, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        It’s ice cream night, so yay for that! Like I always say, a very little’s better than none @ all!

-        Toms I’ve got writers group; that’s always awesome~

-        Aunty Carly’s picking me up afterwards and taking me for half a lunch. (It really frustrates me how PIG mum refuses to lemme eat one lunch; like I’ve often said, I don’t care if you gimme a smaller portion, but can you please gimme ONE portion?? *sigh*) Also, must remember to ask her please to gimme enough cash for a cold drink! Happiest is when I have enough to add ice cream but sheesh, the last time, PIG mum didn’t even leave me enough money to get a cold drink; I had to order a little cup of hot milk tea! *sigh*

-        Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm; fingers crossed she’ll lemme drink white tea with two sugars! However, if she doesn’t, I’ll just haveta content myself with the fact that I had one cup @ writers group~

-        Then fingers crossed dearest dad will take PIG mum and I out to dinner somewhere toms night! Even though I fully understand I’ll only get to eat a tiny portion. *sigh*

-        Anyways, hope everyone’s having a smashing week!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 224c

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for Wednesday! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1807. righteo, potential final, final events for Wednesday?

-        When someone 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 wash and rinse my own hair today. I also sing 33% of my shorter second-favourite song slowly, softly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.

-        Oh, almost forgot: before someone came this arvo, Lisa from CODA rang and said I’d get some new carer next Tuesday. Hope she’s nice~

-        I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (someone only ever helps with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, someone only ever helps with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself (thanks to someone who helped with Elf’s AFO and both laces; sometimes she insists I practise tying the left one with her. Not sure why she didn’t today but oh well, I’m sure I’ll be tying them with Kim toms arvo). After hanging my towel up, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head outside to the gobbling :P table.

-        Arvo tea’s one yummy banana and one mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Afterwards, I happily read our book club novel for thirty minutes before watching the sports report with someone then going to the loo once more for one tinkle. Oh, after cleaning the bathroom, someone massages Ela firmly for like forty-five minutes, painting her bright green with brown spots today.

-        Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else Happy Hump Day and hoping everyone’s having a smashing week!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Good evening again! Em’s new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2358. anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

-        When PIG mum tumbled downstairs, she immediately and gleefully booted me offline, even though I still had TWENTY MINUTES left!! ><

-        To stall for time, I used the loo for one tinkle first, but – brb!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 224

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 1584 steps and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Let It Go’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and NINETEEN MINUTES online after someone leaves @ 6pm!!! Anyways, events for today?

-        Yay, 4^th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call till 6:50am and after one pot :P trip, Daddy Bear and I immediately cuddled and snored, coz I wanted to fall back asleep before dearest dad left for one one hour later!

Sure enough, @ 7:50am, dearest dad comes and kisses me bye before leaving for work. I used the pot :P once more than spend the ten minutes till 8am starting a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

-        Daddy Bear and I cuddle, continuing our happy snorings together, with me waking once more for the pot :P around one hour later. Shortly after that, PIG mum starts a-THUMPING around downstairs and it’s not long before she comes downstairs into my bedroom, hits me with the eye goo, helps me very slightly with a bra then leaves me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I do after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

-        PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO before I let her gleefully force me on like ten minutes of shoelace tying practice. I don’t really mind, coz I’m sitting and can fully concentrate; besides, I get what a kick she gets outta from being able to boss me around, tell me every little thing I’m doing wrong, etc. Besides, it’s not like I don’t know how it’s done; it’s just that Ela doesn’t get the command she’s given! *sigh*

-        Afterwards, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). That done, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He conned the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

-        That done, I wash and dry Era before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful god’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

After letting PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to prepare my breakfast, I sit down and have one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of unbuttered toast, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also finish my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

-        Breakfast over, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the 4WD, and she tootles me off to the Word bookstore to buy a card and gift for Tina, who’s getting baptised this Sunday!

-        Afterwards, we come back to the Warrigal Square Woolies and buy groceries.

-        Back home, I use the loo once for one tinkle then walk myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        I’m just about to start my writers group homework, when Aunty Deana arrives, bearing a BBQ chook for our lunch! I’m feeling extremely loved here: she not only gives me BOTH drumsticks (the smart woman waits until after PIG mum’s gone to drop off our 4WD with the broken air con before discreetly passing me the second one XD), she also cuts some breat meat for me! I enjoy one mug of mint chocolate milk, while she has this lychee drink.

-        After lunch, I use the loo for one tinkle then return to the computer to finish my writers’ group homework.

-        That done, I use the loo once more than we sit down to watch one episode of Chicago Fire! Hopefully there’ll be one episode every week to watch for awhile~ While we watch, I munch one yummy pear and Aunty Deana massages Ela for around one hour, although I’ve noticed much of her massage tends to be holding Ela in a stretched position. It’s not entirely comfortable, but hey.

-        After the episode, it’s not quite time for Aunty Deana to leave yet; I open You Tube and we watch a live video of Westlife performing Uptown Girl.

-        When PIG mum comes home and announces that it’s time for Aunty Deana to leave, I use the loo once more. Actually, I do a stinky unspeakable, after asking PIG mum please for one mug of water.

-        Someone’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm.

-        Best of all, tonight’s ice cream night; like I always say, a very lttle’s better than none @ all!

-        Toms: writers group! It’s always great fun~ Aunty Carly’s just arrived to collect my parking permit, so must remember not to park in the disabled parking spot toms.

-        Will have half a lunch afterwards with Aunty Carly, I’m sure. *sigh* Dunno why PIG mum just refuses to understand why the second half never tastes as fresh … never mind, I’m sure Aunty Carly will lemme have the ‘bigger’ half. XD

-        Then Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm. Hopefully she’ll lemme outta shoelace tying practice and lemme drink white tea with two sugars! But even if she doesn’t, oh well~

-        So hopefully bbl, else hope everyone’s having a smashing week!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 173c

Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for Tuesday! Firstly, Em’s new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ … argh, PIG mum says I must’ve accidentally nudged Wally 2 when I was doing my upper limb session with Marnie today! >< But unfortunately, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and FIVE MINUTES online after I get home from Toastmasters tonight!!! *sigh* Well, just noting down that I enjoyed my 3^rd consecutive awesome sleep last night (bid Daddy Bear sweet dreams, fell asleep and didn’t wake till 6:20am) but the moment dearest dad left for work called upstairs for PIG mum to please help me up coz I needed to continue online study! Did so after munching breakfast (I buttered the plain toast that PIG mum had already given me coz she’d gone back upstairs to pigland! XD) and also did a stinky unspeakable before PIG mum tootled us off to Calamvale Central to buy groceries. Bought three sushi rolls for lunch but only had time to wolf down two before PIG mum said ‘twas time to leave for UQ! Today, Era helped Ela stretch for fifty-five minutes and Ela opened and closed her palm 300x, holding each for a count of five. Physio today: 1.5 hrs for Ela: bowling, Era tracing while she stabilised the paper, baloon tennis while standing, supination and pronation. Came back home; someone came eight minutes late to mind me! We’re hitting Toastmasters together tonight, so fingers crossed PIG mum’ll lemme buy some dinner back from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate @ LEAST two DECADES ago! Toms Aunty Deana doesn’t come mind me till 12:30pm and I’ve gotta do my writers group homework! Oh, will also head out with PIG mum to buy Tina a baptism card from Koorong, most probably. Someone’s coming back to mind me from 4pm till 6pm (she’d better not come that late again! ><) and best of all, toms night’s ice cream night! Like I always say, a very little’s better than none @ all! Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^
