Tuesday Post 238

God afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 3548 steps (ha, I’m just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Jabez 910’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed FORTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Carol leaves @ 6pm!! Anyways, events for today?

• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 3:04pm, I lasted 6:50. Now, lemme play one more lasting in between five and six minutes, and I’ll willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Yay, 2^nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:35am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:45am beginning 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*
• The teddies and I happily cuddle and snore for another hour, me waking to use the pot :P once more when dearest dad silently walks down the hallway to unbolt the door that leads into the garage,
• Now @ 3:29pm I’ve finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:42. That’s today’s quotas satisfied, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• While waiting for dearest dad to come kiss me bye before leaving for work, I sing 10% of my newest second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Once dad’s done so, while waiting for his departure, I sing another 10%.
• Once he’s gone, the teddies and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking up once more for the pot :p shortly before PIG mum begins A-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she’s let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with a bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with once giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela, but I tell her to be content coz she randomly got a break from having to hold the toothbrush last night). 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 created 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 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 three plain (no honey) Weet-Bix with milk, all my usual drugs :p and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I also spend ten minutes 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!

• Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the car, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. PIG mum gets into the driver’s seat and tootles me off to the NAB. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we listen to 97.3FM all day and today, Era helps Ela stretch for forty minutes, before Ela opens and closes her palm 250 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also rubs Ela’s fingers for ten/twelve minutes.
• Physio today: four laps walking along hallway, reaching for Era, about thirty sit-to-stands and just over twelve minutes walking on treadmill reaching 3.1km/hr. just my like, the new student today (I’ve already forgotten her name >< XD) actually PLAYS the ukulele! Also, I was gonna smack Ethan coz he called me Mrs. Chan today when I was hallway walking in the NAB, but he caught me when I was going @ 3.1km/hr on the treadmill and Elf tripped, so I forgave him. XD
• After one more loo trip, PIG mum tootles us off to the Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown Coffee Club for lunch! She won’t take a photo of my yummy food to put on Facebook coz apparently, dad will see and get mad, but hey. I really wanted my favourite eggs Benedict with bacon but PIG mum gleefully restricted me to only meals only below 2000 kJ 9basically everything was ruled out); in the end I had a bacon and chicken avo smash. That tasted great, but I wanted chips … oh well. We shared a really cool drink, though! This pavlova mango frappe thing!
• Afterwards, we bought stuff from Coles, Priceline and the Japanese place before returning home.
• I turned off the alarm, used the loo for one more tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Carol’s minding me from 4pm till 6pm today.
• Then Dr. Lee’s coming to pick me up @ 6:45pm and taking us tour small group dinner! Honestly, the food doesn’t look very appetising, but Dr. Lee knows I’m allergic to nuts and won’t lemme order anything nutty~
• Toms: Aunty Deana’s coming to mind me from 10:30am till 1:30pm.
• Then I’ve got upper limb session @ the NAB. Bringing my ukulele along again! Should I bring a banana too?
• Kim’s coming to mind me from 4:40pm till 6:30pm; I look forward to hearing all about her holiday and watching twenty-five minutes of Seven’s news with her!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has asmashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 238d

One final good evening and greeting for Monday! Em’s final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1778.  Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Oh, have I said yet? This morning, the grannies were calling Aunty Deana Chow goo leung (nurse Chow in Canto). When she dropped me home, I said brightly, “Bye, Chow goo leung; cya Wednesday!” She growled, “Brat.” And swatted me very gently on the bum. XD
• Toms: late morning UQ physio with Vicky or Renee.
• Alas, I’m not seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage afterwards because she’s gone back to HK!
• But hopefully PIG mum will take me out for lunch somewhere!
• Carol’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm; fingers crossed she’ll lemme drink a white tea with two sugars and I can get another hour’s worth of reading in like today!
• Even better, small group social toms night! Dr. Lee’s picking me up @ 6:45pm toms night and we’re all having dinner @ some Ethiopian restaurant! I may just haveta order a piece of bread for dinner coz everything looks spicy … XD
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 238c

Good evening again! Em’s new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1688. Anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

• When dearest dad called dinner 9sure enough, he refused to take me out to dinner *sigh*) I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccoli, lotsa dearest dad’s home-grown hairy melon, one slice of tasteless soup beef, one yummy BBQ chicken drumstick and one small chunk of BBQ chook.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup before I took my bowl over to the sink 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.
• Off to continue watching Avatar now; fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm following one last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for Monday, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 238b

Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1628. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• When Tina announced her arrival one minute late, 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 hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 22% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. Tina rekitted me, and I had one last tinkle when she gave me a square of toilet paper to dry inside both ears with.
• Back outside, arvo tea was one yummy banana plus one mug of sugarless black tea. Happiness was getting to read for one hour, even though that meant I had to skip reading the sports report. Dunno why Tina’s that slow; seriously, she requires step-by-step instructions else she’ll just stand there and do nothing! Today, she took ages to clean the bathroom before sitting down to gently massage Ela for forty minutes while watching Ten’s news.
• At 5:55pm (she needed prompting for that, too! XD Like, I had to tell her, “It’s 5:55pm. I’m going to use the loo once more; could you please wash-up our afternoon tea cups and stuff?) I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for two tinkles and back, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• I signed Tina off with my thanks and byes. She’s back next Monday.
• PIG mum left about one hour ago for sth; it’s just dad and I here tonight although I seriously doubt he’ll take me out for dinner.
• Toms: late morning physio @ the NAB. Sonia says I may bring my new ukulele! Should Google how to use one after publishing this post. XD
• Not seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage afterwards coz she’s gone back to HK! Wonder if PIG mum’ll take me out for half a lunch …
• Not sure who’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm … Carol, maybe?
• But Dr. Lee’s picking me up @ 6:45pm and taking me to our small group social; we’re having dinner @ some Mediterranean restaurant! Truth be told, it’s not looking very appetising … XD
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 238

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 1310 steps and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Blessed On The Job’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Tina minds me for two hours!! Anyways, events for today?

Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:20am (when the microwave beeped for times to let dearest dad know he’d finished reheating dad’s food for him) and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:30am beginning 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*

• At 2:54pm I’ve finished one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:04. Now, lemme play one more lasting in between five and six minutes, and I’ll willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• The teddies and I cuddle and snore for another hour, me waking to use the pot :P once more shortly before dearest dad comes and kisses me bye before leaving for his day’s work. Not long after he’s gone, PIG mum enters my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with a bra before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P for one more tinkle first.

PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). 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.

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*

• Now @ 3:18pm I’ve finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:24. That’s today’s quotas satisfied, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I’ve also played one more noteworthy one lasting 8:05!

After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast torn into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also spend ten minutes 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!

• Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely to the loo, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable while waiting for Aunty Deana to come pick me up.
• Actually, once I’m done I sit outside in the garage awaiting her arrival. Aunty Deana comes driving the company van! There’s already one lady in the passenger seat; I get in and sit in the row behind her.
• After going to Runcorn then Sunnybank Hills to pickup two more elderly aunties, Aunty Deana drives everyone back to the Cathay complex.
• Some volunteer meets her there; she instructs him please to gimme a hand in while she helps the other aunties with their wheelie walkers.
• Once seated, I’m giving two slices of sponge cake, three sesame balls and a plastic cup of Chinese tea for morning tea! Uncle Stephen also wanders around and we have a chat.
• Time to start, we all head further into the building and take a seat. It’s a small class; only four people! Someone has actually printed our names on A4 pieces of paper and actually stuck them onto the wall.
• Alice appears and we begin our hour of stretching exercises. I like it, mainly coz I can do it whilst seated. Aunty Deana kept us company and helped the old man to my left.
• After class ended, thanks to Beona who gave me a hand to the loo; I managed okay by myself. Turns out she’s actually the manager!
• Aunty Deana tootled us all home. I was second last.
• Back inside, PIG mum said that dearest dad had already returned home and to have lunch together right away.
• Entrée was one lil corn cobette and three chunks of papaw.
• Lunch was like three small slices of the delicious turnip slice PIG mum made and another mug of Chinese tea.
• Before leaving to see Vincent the bloody physio, I used the loo once more first.
• Physio today: tried three/four times to stay seated without success, bent @ least ten times to floor for Ela to try and retrieve an object, weightshifting and standing on Erf's tippytoes hallelujah, I won’t haveta see him next Monday coz it’s Labour Day! :D
• Back home, I turned off the alarm, used the toilet for one more tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Tina’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm today.
• Toms: late morning UQ physio, but I’m not seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage coz she’s gone overseas!
• Haveta check roster: not sure who’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm?
• Dr. Lee’s picking me up @ 6:45pm and taking me to our small group social! We’re having dinner @ some Mediterranean place … hope there’s good grub. XD
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Sunday Post 238b

Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly,  Em’s probable final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 4791 and secondly, Joni’s devotional topic’s ‘rich In Faith’. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

• Argh, I swear awful PIG mum does it deliberately: she waits until dearest dad’s almost home from playing baddy with his mates and having arvo tea together before flying downstairs, gleefully and immediately forcing me offline, then gleefully FORCING L me to plod twenty-five minutes on the bloody treadmill for her! Meaning I’m still plodding along when dad gets home, meaning PIG mum can show off to him how much power she has over me, and also what a piece of sh*t I am… >< *sigh*
• If that wasn’t bad enough already, next I had to let her gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit. But since she’d already shown off to dad how much power she has over me, and what a piece of sh*t I am, it’s not like that really mattered … besides, dad came home and turned the TV on, meaning I got to watch some of Seven’s 6pm news while eating, yay~
• But you can bet when I showered, I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 23% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Tonight dad took us to Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong for dinner! Of course, I got piss little (less than half a bowl of vermicelli, about 1.5 bowls of congee and about one bowl of rice) but hey, I’ve accepted the fact that I’ll never get a substantial meal while the parents are around. *sigh*
• Back home, I used the loo once for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms: dunno why mother’s signed me up to some Cathay exercise program with all the old folks. Aunty Deanna will take me there toms, and apparently Alice from church will take the exercises! Hopefully it won’t be too strenous, coz I’ve got an early afternoon torture session with Vincent the bloody physio afterwards …
• Think it’s Trina coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm. Luckily PIG mum hasn’t gotten to her yet, meaning she still walks behind me; must remember to give her step-by-step instructions else she’ll do nothing. XD
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Sunday Post 238

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 2533 steps (ha, I’m just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Keep Improving’ and thirdly, the spam count for the weekend’s four. Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, pity. My awesome sleep streak was broken once @ 12:45am and again @ 2:45am but that’s okay; hopefully I’ll start another right away~
• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 2:32pm I lasted 5:43. Now, lemme play one more game lasting in between six and seven minutes, and I’ll willingly hit the sack tonight. XD

Nature called again around 6:20am; after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:30am beginning 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*

• Now @ 3:45pm, I’ve finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 6:24. That’s today’s quotas satisfied, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• The teddies and I happily cuddle and snore for one more hour, PIG mum a-THUMPING around upstairs my signal to wake and use the pot :P once more. Soon, she’s let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me very slightly with not only a bra but a tee coz dearest dad hasn’t left for church yet before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

PIG mum comes back to help with both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). 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 created 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 walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Huge thanks to dearest dad who’s left Weekend Sunrise on for me to watch!

Breakfast is two plain (no honey) Weet-Bix with some milk, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and four tiny thin pieces of the pancake PIG mum recently cooked with a spot of chocolate sauce! Over breakfast, I spend ten minutes 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!

• Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the 4WD, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• PIG mum tootles us off to church. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; of course, she won’t lemme turn on the music coz she’s ‘too busy preparing her heart to worship God, whatever that means. No matter, I spend the short trip telling the cruel and unfaithful God how much I wished there was any other way into heaven that didn’t need Him.
• At church, I used the loo once myself then entered Bible study.
• Huge class today: like, seventeen students! Lol, Kalos sat on my left and I simply didn’t see him coz of my complete left hemianopia until he tapped my knee! I made sure to apologise to him after class ended; phew he understood and said no worries. Today in class we discussed marriage.
• After class ended, I used the loo once, grabbed two chocolate wafer sticks and one lil circle rice cracker before sitting down. Granny Wan was awesome: when she came over, she immediately passed me one quarter-triangle of tuna sandwich! I said thanks then immediately jammed the whole thing into my mouth lest PIG mum came over and saw. XD
• Time for service (actually, I was heaps earlier but PIG mum just couldn’t wait to dash off with all the other aunties who can’t be bothered attending Bible study like my dearest dad does for their very informal ‘fellowship’ – not sure why she insists on calling it that coz they don’t actually do anything biblical like pray and read the Bible together; I’m pretty sure they just drink coffee and gossip -) I haul myself upstairs and grab my usual seat.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today!  I sing everything I know, plus the harmony for two songs, but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• After service, I use the loo once again then PIG mum tootles us off for lunch with dearest dad @ the Underwood Maccas. Oh, I also change my pad after service. I’d asked PIG mum please to help but she’d refused; when I’d gone into the loo and checked the pad was basically empty so I just came back outside without changing it, but was forced to return inside a second time and actually change it after PIG mum threatened she wouldn’t take me to lunch with dearest dad. Yes, she’s spiteful like that. *sigh*
• For lunch, I had the cheap five dollar meal, the double beef and bacon burger with a small fries 9surprise, dad only nabbed one) and an orange juice. Over lunch, I happily read the day’s edition of the Sunday Mail.
• After lunch, PIG mum and I went to the Woolies @ Underwood Marketplace and bought groceries before returning home.
• After turning off the alarm, I used the loo for one more tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Fingers crossed dearest dad takes PIG mum and I out for dinner somewhere tonight!
• Toms: perhaps expect a pissy plodding total from me, coz I think I’ve only got a late arvo torture session with Vincent the bloody physio.
• Think it’s Tina coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm.
• Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday Post 238e

One final good evening! Em’s final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3611. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Braced for the parents not allowing me out for lunch with my ESS peers, enduring a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum and dad not taking us out to dinner afterwards, either. *sigh* But will laugh my head off if the plodding total I login’s less than the one today, coz I haven’t gone out today but I will toms! XD
• Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

P.S. tee hee, tonight I’ve managed FIVE posts! Don’t think that’s ever happened on Saturday before?? XD

Saturday Post 238d

A penultimate greeting and good evening for Saturday! Em’s new final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3571. Ha, I’m just over 3.5 grand. XD Anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

• Almost immediately after Carol left, PIG mum flew downstairs from pigland, gleefully and immediately forced me offline. Thus I had to let her gleefully FORCE L me to plod on the bloody treadmill for her, hence why my plodding total’s over 3.5 grand even though I’ve been @ home all day today.
• Before dinner, I walked myself once slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle then to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, several wee chunks of chewy beef and like two small slices of fish.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl 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.
• Anyways, off to watch Avatar now! Fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm following one final loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening Sunday, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday post 238c

Good evening again! Em’s new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3460. Anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

• So a nice hot shower for me – I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 22% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. Carol rekitted me, and I had one last tinkle when I was drying inside the ears with a square of toilet paper.
• Back outside, arvo tea was one delicious pear (I finally remembered to tell Carol she didn’t need to dice the pear into that many tiny little pieces; quartering the pear’s enough) and thanks to Carol for a mug of white tea with two sugars! Like I’ve probably said before, probably the only thing I miss about hospital life’s that I got six cups of white tea every day, while nowadays I’m lucky to get three on Saturdays! My main joy, however, was getting to read for one more hour (only Saturdays will I get the chance to spend 1/8 of the day reading)! As for Carol, after cleaning the bathroom she sat and very gently massaged Ela for forty-five minutes, painting her iridescent blue with grey spots today.
• After watching the sports report, I used the loo once more for two tinkles and Carol changed my pad for me.

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Saturday Post 238b

Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1013. No, don’t ask me how I passed 1000 steps without even leaving the house today. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

·        Phew, Carol knew to let herself inside when she arrived precisely @ 4pm, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door.

·        Joni’s devotional topic’s ‘Can You Stand The Test?

Cheers,

Saturday Post 238

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding only 487 steps (obviously, I’ve not left the house today) and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Take The Right Approach’. Anyways, events for today?

• At 2:29pm I’ve finished one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:11. Now, lemme play one more game lasting in between five and six minutes, and I’ll willingly hit the sack tonight. XD

Woo hoo, 16^TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t calluntil like 6:25am, and after one pot :p trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:35am beginning 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*

• The teddies and I cuddle and snore for another hour, me waking to use the pot :P once more when PIG mum comes to leave for her half-day’s work @ 7:30am. Once she’s gone, I spend 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 created 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 dearest dad has retucked the teddies and I back into bed and promised to stay quiet so that we can snore in peace, we cuddle and happily do just that. I wake twice more for the pot; when Besta arrives ten minutes late, she bids me good morning brightly. Daddy Bear nods good morning @ her; Besta knows she’s then supposed to offer us fifteen more minutes but instead she cheekily asks, “Would you like fifteen more minutes … or five more minutes?” Oh, instant Bear Bum for her! Besta just laughs, “Okay, okay, fifteen more minutes. See you soon.” She leaves us in peace, and Daddy Bear decides he’ll forgive her cheekiness. XD After counting down our fifteen more minutes, I spend the time before Besta comes back 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!

•  
• Now @ 3:06pm I’ve finshed another game of Bejeweled lasting 3:05. That’s today’s quotas satisfied, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I’ve also played another game lasting almost 7.5 minutes and one more nearing nine!
• When Besta comes back, I use the pot :P once more for one tinkle and excitedly tell her about my not one, not two, but THREE dreams this week! Besta gets me kitted and then we head over to the bathroom where I brush teeth. Thanks to Besta who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her once weekly break.
• After brushing teeth, using the loo for one more tinkle then washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Thanks to dearest dad who’s left me one whole (not half) a ham and egg sandwich; thanks also to Besta who cooks the bread yummy and adds one slice of cheese for me. I also enjoy my first mug of tea, white and two, and give the teabag a suck. XD
• My biggest happiness, however, was getting to read for eighty minutes! Today I reached pg. 225 @ 11:20am and pg. 250 @ midday. As for Besta, she very sporadically massaged Ela for about forty-five minutes while watching television. Lol, she gets so engrossed by what’s happening on TV, she stops massaging Ela! Hence why I’ve adopted the habit of twitching Ela every time I finish a paragraph; the twitch will remind Besta of what she’s meant to be doing and she’ll start again. XD
• At midday, Besta takes me to the loo for one tinkle and makes me one mug of warm  Akta-vite, the new chocolate milk powder mother and I bought earlier this week. Verdict? It’s AWFUL; there’s like nochocolate flavour whatsoever! >< XD
• After reading for another quarter-hour, I try without success to find both HK aunties. Perhaps they’ve gone out together? Instead, I read for another thirty-five minutes, reaching page 325 @ 12:55pm.
• At 12:55pm, I use the loo once more for two tinkles then say my thanks and byes to Besta, who leaves me with one heaped bowl of fried rice and another mug of white tea for lunch. Once she leaves, I ring dearest dad then enjoy my lunch while watching old Westlife videos.
• Lunch finished, I walk 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.
•  Thanks to dad who passes me one mug of water; I do a stinky unspeakable, wash and dry Era 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.
•  But since dad’s given me a great big mug of water, nature calls again @ like @ 3pm. That’s fine; I just walk myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one tinkle and back, again , rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
•  Carol’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm tonight. Fingers crossed she’ll lemme drink one more mug of white tea and lemme read for one more hour; it’s only Saturdays when I get the chance to enjoy three cups of white tea! PIG mum mostly only lets me drink green tea nowadays. *sigh*
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Alas, if this idiot headache that’s been bugging me since Thursday morning still hasn’t buggered off, I’m resorting to Panadol. I hate having to rely on drugs. ><
• Also braced for the parents not letting me out for lunch with my ESS peers, having Maccas with them, a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum and dad not taking us out for dinner afterwards. *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 277e

One final good evening! Firstly, Em’s final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4139 and secondly, the final, final spam count for the week’s now twenty-one. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, @ 9pm I walk myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Actually, PIG mum had to gimme a new pad to change, coz I didn’t stick the first one down well enough; the pad was empty but my knickers were covered with blood. I thought I’d asked PIG mum to please check for me, but she very loudly and vehemently denied that. Well, chill, woman, no biggie. XD
• Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total from me toms, coz I’m not going out. Besta’s coming to mind me from 10am till 1pm, then Carol’s doing the same from 4pm till 6pm. Fingers crossed I’ll get to spend a blissful three hours reading toms, alsothat I’ll get three cups of white tea with two sugars! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

P.S. Tee hee, tonight I’ve managed FIVE posts, and it’s not Wednesday! XD        

P.P.S. Aiming to fit in @ least two episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender in toms~

Friday Post 277d

Good evening again! Em’s new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4040. Ha, I’m just over four grand. XD Anyways, continuing events for tonight?

·        After watching the news, I immediately switched to watching Avatar~ Dearest dad arrived home from work, prompting mother to fly downstairs from pigland, gleefully and immediately forcing me offline.

·        So I had to let her gleefully force poor Ela on 45+ minutes of stupid exercises for poor Ela. At least this time, I was sitting!

·        Before dinner, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. I also changed my pad; I’d asked PIG mum could she please help me change it but she was feeling unhelpful and just left me with one. Hopefully I managed to stick it down okay … Ela’s obviously useless but hopefully Era and my mouth managed okay.

·        Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, some beef and some bream/barramundi.

·        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 brb after one more loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for Friday, the final, final events for tonight, the final, final spam count for the weekend plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 277c

Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3589 (ha, I’m just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, the potential final, final spam count for the week’s now twenty-one. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• After lunch, PIG mum tootled me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my seatbelt all day, we listened to 97.3FM all day and today, Era helped Ela stretch for like thirty minutes before Elaopened and closed her palm like 150 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also rubbed Ela’s fingers for two minutes.
• At Ray’s, I used the loo once then lay down for some acupuncture and massage from him. PIG mum was in her element, obviously; yapping incessantly @ Ray, who was kind enough to always reply and keep a conversation flowing.
• After one more loo trip, PIG mum tootled us back to the Runcorn Plaza IGA, where we bought groceries before returning home.
• After turning off the alarm, I walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Thanks to PIG mum who let Aunty Kitty inside when she announced her arrival five minutes late. Me, I walked myself slowly and safely into the bathroom, 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 own hair today, but thanks to Aunty Kitty who helped me rinse it out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Aunty Kitty flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. Aunty Kitty rekitted me, and I had one final tinkle when she was washing my glasses for me.
• Back outside, arvo tea was eight delicious lil Hello Panda bikkies with green tea filling! Dunno why PIG mum wouldn’t lemme buy any sushi for arvo tea this week but thanks to her who lemme buy the bikkies this arvo. I also drank one mug of green tea~
• Aunty Kitty left about four minutes early today but was lucky and still got one full hour’s pay. She could’ve left ten minutes early, but PIG mum was too engrossed with yapping @ her. XD
• When she left, I used the loo once more for two tinkles 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.
• Hoping to watch Seven’s 6pm news now! Fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^
P.S. At 6pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God's near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. New final plodding total for Friday: 3628.
P.P.S. The most interesting surnames I found while watching Nine's 6pm news: Allred, Orr, BradnamMesereau, McCreadle, Grigalinius, Cavallaro, Guthrie, Djmahur, Grigalinus, Ariotti, Cottam and Ainsworth.
P.P.P.S. Joni's devotional topic's 'Seasoned Conversation'.

Friday Post 277b

Good afternoon! Em’s new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2675 (even though I’ve still not left the house yet). Righteo, continuing today’s events?

• Alas, PIG mum came over, immediately booted me offline and I had to let her gleefully FORCE L me to plod twenty-five minutes on the bloody treadmill for her. Must remember to ask dad will he please take the bloody machine to Banyo to get the safety cord fixed; really, it’s just bloody dangerous that the thing doesn’t work anymore, meaning should I stumble, fall and injure Era I’m really screwed coz she’s my dominant arm and I do everything with her. PIG mum would like that, wouldn’t she? Coz then I’d be totally reliant on her. *sigh*

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 277

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em’s final, final plodding total for Thursday’s actually 2778; secondly, today I’ve only been hard @ work plodding 492 steps (obviously, I’ve not left the house yet); thirdly, TWFT topic’s ‘Don’t Be A Sluggard (4)’ and fourthly, the spam count for the week’s twenty. Anyways, let’s start off with yesterday’s events first!

• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 9:25am, I lasted 6:09. Now, lemme play one more lasting in between five and six minutes, and I’ll willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Had great fun @ GCCW! Had great fun as always; we also bid bye to George’s parents coz they’re returning to China before our next meeting! George’s mum is such a sweetheart; I was making my way back to my seat with Eileen when she took Ela and said, “Xiao xin (in English: be careful)!
• Enjoyed a delicious spud for lunch with Aunty Carly afterwards; back home I did a stinky unspeakable.
• I thought Carol was supposed to come mind me from 4pm till 6pm; when she hadn’t arrived by 4:05pm I rang CODA coz she’s usually extremely punctual! Turns out my roster got confused but luckily Carol could still make it, but not till 4:45pm!
• Now @ 10:02am I’ve finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:04. That’s today’s quotas satisfied, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I’ve also played one more memorable one lasting 8:03!
• Carol stayed with me till 6:45pm; we got to watch forty minutes of Seven’s 6pm news together, yay! She’s back Saturday arvo~
• After she’d gone, we went down to the Manor for dinner with Aunty Mel, Uncle Cyras and Aunty A! Unsurprisingly, I got piss little (barely one bowl of rice, some fish, some vegies but three little chunks of delicious sweet and sour pork) but I got the chance to ask Aunty Mel (who’a a CN, not just a RN!) my question: back when I got very sick in 2007 and needed a trachea, was I really that dumb I forgot even how to breathe?? Aunty Mel explained ‘twas coz the doctors knew my body was already having enough trouble coping with everything else; the doctors just wanted to take some stress off me with having to breathe also.
• Over dinner, I’d nervously kept an eye on the NRL live score; oh dear, @ halftime the Broncos were losing by four!
• Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle while asking mother to please check the score for me. As I was exiting the bathroom, she excitedly screeched, “They’ve drawn level!” Well, obviously they needed my support; instead of returning online I headed for the couch, and just as I sat down they’d scored again to lead by four!
• Bear Bear and I sat to watch the final fifteen minutes; we won! :D
• I quickly returned online to note down my final, final plodding total then let PIG mum gleefully boot me off to bed. Zzz~
• Today: woo hoo, 15^TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! That’s my newest record~ Nature did try call when the noisy garbage truck thundered down the road just before dawn to start tipping our bins, but I persuaded my bladder to lemme sleep again and not call until the sun had risen enough that I could see the time, which was 6:20am~

After one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:30am beginning 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*

• The teddies and I cuddle and snore, me waking to use the pot :P once more and kiss dearest dad bye when he leaves for work around 8am. Once he’s gone, I give myself fifteen more minutes then get up, because PIG mum had left my AFO and shoes for me.
• That done (it took about ten minutes coz I’ve only got Era to manage stuff), I walked myself slowly and safely over to the bathroom to brush teeth, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Ela enjoyed an extra break from not having to hold the toothbrush~

Then I sat over the loo and did a stinky unspeakable, 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 created 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 walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

For breakfast, I get myself four (not three XD) Weet-Bix; I also spend ten more minutes 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!

• Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Mariana just rang and we chatted for like ten minutes~
• PIG mum’s microwaving sth … I’m presuming our lunch?
• I’ve got an early morning appointment to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture; bet PIG mum simply can’t wait to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
• But I think it’s Aunty Deana coming to mind me @ 4pm… *sigh* Wish she’d stop coming; she only comes to gossip with PIG mum because apart from helping with Elf’s footwear, she won’t even walk behind me and keep me safe! ><
• Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total from me coz I’m not going out. Besta’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm then Carol’s doing the same from 4pm till 6pm. Fingers crossed that I’ll get to read for three hours tomorrow; also fingers crossed that I’ll get three/four mugs of white tea with two sugars! Anyways, hopefully bbl this arvo, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get the chance to post before midday.
