Thursday Post 291b


Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for Thursday! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2887. Anyways, events for today?

  • For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 4:59pm, I lasted 6:19. Now, lemme play one more game of Bejeweled lasting between five and six minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:40am, and after one pot :p trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:50am 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*
  • Nature calls again one hour later; after another pot :P trip 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 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*
  • Today Deb announces her arrival about three minutes late; when PIG mum opens the door for her she immediately apologises, saying she was stuck in traffic.
  • Now @ 5:39pm I’ve finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 5:59. That’s today’s quotas satisfied and I now promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
  • It’s PIG mum who tells me fifteen more minutes, but it’s Deb who returns thirty seconds too early! Shirley informs her of this fact; thankfully Deb goes and leaves us be for another thirty seconds before coming back and helping me get kitted for today. XD
  • BTW, Our Daily Bread’s devotional topic’s ‘The Last Word’.
  • That done, we head over to the bathroom. Thanks to Deb who squirts me some toothpaste (Ela enjoys another break ^^) and takes my toothbrush out to charge once I’ve finished brushing.
  • Before heading out to the gobbling :P table, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and 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!
  • Since PIG mum’s upstairs changing, Deb holds hands with me as I walk out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast was one bowl f plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small half mouthful of milk. Thanks to Deb who turned on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure; I enjoyed catching up on the day’s up-to-date events while munching breakfast.
  • Shortly after 9am, PIG mum came downstairs, slathered me with sunscreen then sent me and Deb packing for my fortnightly shopping trip!
  • All disabled parking on level two (where PIG mum will park) was taken, but luckily Deb can park sideways without fuss~
  • After one loo trip, Deb grabbed me Matthew Reilly’s The Three Secret Cities and I happily read that while she went to find the groceries PIG mum had written down for us to buy.
  • I reached pg. 400 @ 10:01am, reached pg. 425 @  10:30am and then I finished the book  @ 10:42am! Reading the interview with Matthew Reilly took another seven minutes~
  • After one more loo trip, Deb and I grabbed a trolley and began shopping. As luck would have it, just when we walked past the self-serve checkouts, Caitlin looked up and caught my eye! Ela gave her a less Nazi wave (supposing the Botox has softened her slightly) then when Deb took the items through the self-serve checkouts Caitlin and I had a brief chat. I asked her had she started her vestibular therapy yet and she replied she hadn’t yet coz she still had her finger stuck up her bum. I’ve never heard that phrase before, but immediately understood that sentence! XD Then she told me she’d watch the AFL over the NRL but doesn’t actually follow either.
  • Groceries from Woolies bought, after Deb ducks into New York Baguette (while I hang onto the trolley and brace against the wall) and buys me one sausage bun and one custard bun before we catch the lift up to level four and buy groceries from Coles. Suddenly, Deb asks me, “Do you mind if we duck into Kmart and buy two chickens? I’m attending a friend’s farewell party this Saturday.” I say sure but why not just head back to theBBQ chicken section and buy from there? Deb bursts out laughing and explains she wants PLASTIC ones; it’s for some game! XD
  • I ask Elf does she feel oka and Elf replies she’s alright so after the groceries from Coles are bought we head into Kmart. Walking to the very end of the store, I eventually brace against the shelf and Deb comes back with THREE rubbery scrawny looking chickens; when you squeeze them, they squawk! XD
  • Shopping finished, Deb tootles us back to Woka Warrigal to meet Pastors Grace and Chris for lunch. Unfortunately, there’s no parking outside the restaurant but then neither is there outside Woolies, either! O_o Eventually, Deb parks in a pram parking spot; Kim’s done that too before too when there aren’t any disabled parks available.
  • The Lungs have already arrived; I apologise for being five minutes late.
  • I rder the baked pork chop rice sans capsicum with a hot HK-style milk tea, Pastor Chris orders congee 9his voice is still rather shot from having tonsillitis), Deb has some kinda noodles and pastor Grace has some kinda rice. Over lunch, Pastor Grace tells me about Naomi’s swimming lessons and how they’ve bought her a big girl bike (no training wheels!) Pastor Chris chats with Deb, who tells him she’s from Eagleby and that her former husband was some church worship leader who left her for the pianist! O_o
  • They leave around 1:58pm; that’s not bad, considering when Kim took me they’d leave before 1:30pm!
  • Deb tootled me home; after turning off the alarm I took a nice hot shower – hairwash today. Also thanks to Deb who rinsed my hair out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Deb flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Deb rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was tying Elf’s shoelaces and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
  • Back outside, I tootled online and Deb went back and cleaned the bathroom before coming back and just sitting beside me, until I asked her to please give Ela a massage.
  • Lucky PIG mum got home early today, 3:02pm! Deb was good though; she stayed till 3:30pm and saw me safely seated @ the gobbling :P table before leaving @ 3:30pm.
  • For arvo tea, I let PIG mum nab half my yummy sausage bun; we also drink one mug of rice green tea each.
  • Arvo tea finished, I smuggle my mobile into the loo and play Farm Heroes while doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • Will prolly watch Thursday night football tonight~
  • Toms: may haveta get myself up toms morning; lol, that’d be the third time this week!
  • Fingers crossed I can watch Seven’s morning news!
  • Seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture in the early arvo; bet PIG mum’s simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
  • Kim’s minding me from 4pm till 6pm coz she’s not coming Saturday.
  • Will prolly watch Friday night football~
  • Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S. Joni's devotional topic's 'Without A Hint of Complaint'.
