Friday Post 490c

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 1185 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm still owed FIFTEEN MINUTES online after Kim minds me for two hours!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Shirley and I cuddled and snored, me waking to use the pot :P again then spending 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*
• Now @ 3:56pm I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 6:16. That's today's quotas satisfied and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I've actually also played one more memorable game lasting 9:18!
  Cheers.

Friday Post 290b

Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 274 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Delivered From People-Pleasing' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's thirty but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed FIFTY-TWO MINUTES online after I watch Seven's morning news!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:15am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD
• At 11:25am I've finished one game of Bejeweled lasting 5:57. Now, lemme play one more lasting between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD

Tuesday Post 299

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1425 steps (promise you I'll have cracked 1.5 grand before the night's out XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's "Meditate On God's Word'. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 23RD time this year I've achieved one straight week of consecutive awesome sleeps! :D Nature didn't call until 6:05am; after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:15am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD 
• Shortly afterwards, dad comes to hit me with the eye goo before retucking Shirley and me back into bed, saying that Nat would come and help me up @ 8:30am.
• Unsure why the computer's so slow and unresponsive today? Never mind, will let myself off playing my two usual games of Bejeweled but still promise to willingly hit the sack tonight because I've just played three memorable ones: one game lasting more than seven minutes, another lasting more than eight minutes and the third lasting more than eleven! But just briefly, now:
• Nat comes @ 8:30am to help me up. Thanks to her who squirted me some toothpaste and made me one big mug of white tea.
• Saw Vincent the physio for my weekly torture session: stood most session, bent fourteen times to ground for Ela to move object, weightshifting, bent down to ground the 15th time for Era to touch the floor, timed reaching for both hands then three/four attempts before leaving successfully
• Then went to see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage; Uncle Tai wasn't present coz Aunty Ann had sent him out to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown to buy groceries! Then they're having lunch @ Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Gei, the lucky things~
• Nat drove me home and got me cutlery before leaving @ least twenty minutes before her shift ended. Lol, next time I should remember not to sign her off before the proper time her shift ends/get dad to sign her off!
• Lunch was rice leftovers from last night; good, coz I'm not sure I'm having rice for dinner @ small group tonight!
• Then I used the loo for one tinkle before plopping online.
• Annie's coming to mind me this arvo from 4-6pm; dad says I can have two Tim Tams and a pear for arvo tea, score!
• Then we'll prolly leave right after Annie does; small group's starting one hour earlier than usual (6:30pm) because we're eating peri peri chicken together! I'm presuming it's gonna be more like BBQ chook for me, since I'm pathetic and can't eat hot food. XD
• Toms: someone new called Eva T's coming to help me up? Hope she's nice~
• Fingers crossed I can watch Seven's morning news~
• Nat's coming back @ 12:15pm and taking me to the NAB for my last session with Chryselle ... gosh, I hope NAB physio ends after that! Unless Ethan's a hard arse and failed someone ... XD
• She'll see me home, showered and fed with arvo tea before leaving @ 4:15pm; Kim comes fifteen minutes after that to take me to choir! Although that apparently ends early December, too …
• But she'll be gone before 8pm, meaning dad can sign her off.
• Pity that PIG mum's changed my ice cream day to Wednesday ... oh well, as long as I'm getting some, I'm content. XD
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^

Monday Post 299f

• Toms: I think it's Deb coming to help me up, take me to see Vincent the bloody physio for a torture session then back home for lunch? 
• Actually, I think that's Annie; Deb's coming to see me showered @ 4pm.
• Then once she goes I'm off to Sarah's place for our small group social to eat chicken! They're cooking peri peri chicken; since I can't eat spicy food I suppose it's plain BBQ chook for me. XD
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2585. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, just briefly, continuing Sunday's events?

• Cripes, Kim didn't come @ 8am; turns out CODA mixed up my roster and she thought she wasn't coming till the arvo! o_O
• Luckily she was free, came immediately, and I made it into Bible Study just in time, phew~ Five students here today; we continued our study of the ark but Bible Study's not happening next Sunday; instead, we're having a combined service @ 11am!
• Used bathroom, grabbed some morning tea then hauled myself upstairs for ESS.
• Stayed seated for worship, sang everything I knew, plus the harmony for two/three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Pastor Chris with another sermon from his Shame of Throne series, and there was communion afterwards.
• Had a cheeseburger with small fries for lunch with dad; how come the five dollar lunch special ended? Dad himself munched a Big Mac.
• Got home, used loo once then Kim arrived to take me out to the Garbo library!
• I grabbed an old Orson Scott Card novel and happily read for one hour~
• Then we went to Soy Cafe! Wonder when they dropped the Just?
• It's not even Summer and one of my two goals has been accomplished: I had a bowl of shaved ice! :D I chose pearls, caramel pearls and egg custard with mine; Kim chose taro balls with hers.
• Afterwards Kim tootled me home, I turned off the alarm and took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  Cheers,

• 'Twas slightly frustrating that dad (1) wouldn't lemme order the chicken wing with chips nor (2) the French toast but third time lucky he lemme order the dumplings! Only two came with nuts! o_O Yay also that I enjoyed my second HK-style milk tea for the week, even though dad forbade me from getting a cold one. Doesn't matter, hot tastes the same~
• Before heading to church, dad stopped @ Bella's Fruit Market and bought some fresh mushrooms. Originally he said he was looking for fruit but came back and said the fruit didn't look fresh.
• At church, I used the loo for one tinkle myself then grabbed the most left seat. Aunty Katie cam and showed me adorable photos of baby Esme, who's four months old now!
• When Pastor Chris' dad started talking about the gold mining industry in Melbourne ages ago, I tuned out and started playing Candy Crush like games. XD Annoying dad ordered me to put away my mobile and rest my eyes for five minutes twice; I just stared @ the carpet and tapped away the time with  Erf's toes.
• When that all finished, I chatted a bit with Aunty Yvonne and Aunty Florry before dad tootled us home. One more loo trip and then I returned online. Yay, dad says tonight I don't haveta shut down everything until 10pm! He's upstairs finishing the floorboards, see.
• Toms: again, just church, definitely nothing special. Kim's coming to help me up @ 7:30am and dropping me off @ church then coming back again from 1:30pm till 6pm, while dad's out having arvo tea and playing badminton with his mates.
• Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 299b

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for Saturday! Em's potential final, final events for today now stands @ only 794. Righteo, potential final, final events for today/

• Lol, dad tried ordering me offline before my most two important hours of the day were up, but I ignored him and didn't budge until I'd enjoyed my full precious two hours.
• After one more loo trip, I sat down to munch arvo tea (thanks to dad who'd cut up an apple for me; I took the opportunity of scooting my chair to the drawer and getting myself a fork while he was upstairs showering XD) and happily read for another hour; it's only Saturdays that I get to spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book~ I reached pg. twenty-five @ 4:20pm, BTW~
• Exactly one hour later, I used the lo for one more tinkle then returned online.
• Dad's upstairs banging way; wonder when he's gonna take us out to Sunnybank Oriental/Dong Fong for our late arvo tea/early dinner? Doesn't matter if he doesn't feed me anymore dinner after we get back from church once Pastor Chris' dad gives his talk; actually, if I skip dinner that'll be the 4th time this month I've been exempt from having to get myself cutlery for all three meals this month! :D Actually, suppose I'll skip dinner; I'll use the excuse that I've gotta finish my GCCW competition entry; think it's due by next Thursday night!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight else hope to see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 299

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 668 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'You Can Begin Again' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed TWENTY-ONE MINUTES online when I get back home from church tonight!!  Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:20am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD
• At 2:45pm I've played one game of Bejeweled lasting 5:05. Now, lemme finish one more game lasting between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• About ten minutes later, dearest dad comes to hit me with the eye goo! Shirley grimly reminded him that he'd better not disturb our beauty sleep by being noisy else she'd give him the dreaded Bear Bum; dad just laughed and retucked us into bed. XD After he'd gone, 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*
• Now @ 3:23pm I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 6:24. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms because I've actually also played two more memorable games, one lasting 7:40 and the other 7:42! But I've spent too long playing, so just briefly:
• Besta minded me from 10am till 2pm. I showered @ 12:30pm coz Kim doesn't come Saturday arvos anymore.
• I finished the Bryce Courtenay book! It wasn't very pleasant; the book ends with the main character perishing. Besta found me a new book to read, a Tom Clancy one! Only the writing's pretty small … bet either/both parents will bitch it's too for me; never fear, I'll just promise the light's always on before I read. Hope Tom Clancy's better than Bryce Courtenay!
• Think dad's taking me out to Sunnybank Oriental for late arvo tea/dinner coz then he wants to hear some talk given @ church by Pastor Chris' dad ... I'm planning to bring my mobile and play Candy Crush like games. XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 289f

Good evening and definitely one final greeting for Friday! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 1475(oh, I'm certain I'll pass 1500 some other night; just not tonight. XD ) and secondly, the final, final spam count for the week's nw thirty-four/Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Phew, dad called me over for dinner @ only like 6:15pm; I'd shoveled all the boiled tasteless food down and even drunk one bowl of soup and was seated on the couch with Carnival when coverage began @ 7pm! I ordered dad to stand with me when the national anthems were sung. XD
•  Since dad fell asleep like immediately after kickoff, I got to tap out the match with just Erf's middle finger: fifteen minutes up, then ten more minutes, then fifteen down. When PIG mum's present I've gotta tap with both he pointer and the third, else she'll get pissed with me. XD
• Come half time, the Aussies were leading eight nil. I quickly used the loo for one tinkle then returned to the sofa to slowly, softly but most hatefully sing like 30% of my newest second-favourite song out aloud, closing the left eye for all the important numbers.
• The Kangaroos ran away with the match! :D Ten just when it ended, PIG mum rang us; today she visited some museum.
• One more lo trip for me before I returned online.
• Toms: looking forward to my weekly sleep-in till 10am~
• Will shower with Besta @ 12:30pm coz Kim doesn't come Saturdays anymore~
• Looking forward to my three white teas with two sugars and fingers crossed for the opportunity to read for a blessed three hours!
• Think dad says we'll have arvo tea @ Dong Fong @ Sunnybank Oriental as our dinner coz he wants to attend church coz Pastor Chris' dad is speaking! Hope he'll lemme bring and use my mobile …
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Chees,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, tonight I've managed SIX posts; that's even arer than five! XD

Friday Post 289e

Potentially one final greeting for Friday again! Firstly, Em's new potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands@ 1182 ; secondly, Our Daily Bead's devotional topic's 'Braided Together' and thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Your Comforting Friend'. Anyways, take two: just briefly, potential final, final events for today?

• Kim minded me from 4pm till 6pm. I opened the door for her, showered, had some mango for arvo tea and happily read for one hour, reaching pg. 545 @ 5:07 and reaching pg. 600 @ 5:42pm.
• Kim's back Sunday; we're watching another movie together!
• Me, I'm looking forward to watching the Kangaroo and Kiwi test tonight!
• Toms: getting my weekly sleep-in till 10:15am, when Besta comes minding me from 10am. Will shower @ 12:30pm coz Kim's not doing the 4-6pm shift.
• Perhaps will have a pissy plodding total to report/ Dad says we can go out for diner coz he wants to drag me along to church and watch some talk Pastor Chris' dad will deliver! I asked Pastor Chris; his dad's not a pastor like he is, but more like Uncle Him was. He's not attending (playing volleyball instead); I'll prolly not understand much and will get bored senseless. XD
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after the match (GO THE KANGAROOS!), else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, I've already managed FIVE posts today but haven't even had dinner yet! XD

Friday Post 289d

Good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for Friday! Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 996; don't worry, I'm beyond certain I'll have cracked 1000 before the night ends! XD Anyways, continuing today's events?

• At 11:30am I happily watched Seven's morning news. All the things I usually record are in some previous post.
• When dad summons me over for lunch, I use the loo for one more tinkle before joining him @ the gobbling :P table.
• Now @ 3:39 I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 5:54. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I've actually played two more memorable games that both lasted just over nine minutes!
• Lunch was tasteless boiled leftovers, spooned down with one bowl of soup before I returned online.
• At twenty to, I climbed into the 4WD and dad tootled me off to Ray's place. Only we arrived early, and since dad was feeling sleepy, he handed me his mobile, told me to WeChat PIG mum where she was, and took a quick nap. XD
• iNSIDE rAY'S PLACE, i USED THE LOO ONCE FOR TWO TINKLES THEN LAY DOWN AND GOT SOME MASSAGE AND ACUPUNCTURE FROM HIM, WHILE DAD CONTINUED NAPPING - Sorry, shrieking! >< XD 'Twas so nice to have a conversation with Ray for once; usually it's just PIG mum yapping, Ray making affirmative sounds and me lying silent. XD
• Back home, I returned online. Guess I'll haveta open the door for Km coz dad's outside.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after Kim leaves, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  

Friday Post 289c

Good afternoon! Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ only 439, but I'm going out next!Righteo, continuing today's events?

• After breakfast, I 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. Kim comes and gives Ela a very gentle and very sporadic massage once she's cleaned up my breakfast dishes.
• When she leaves @ 10am, I'm in the midst of doing a stinky unspeakable. Never fear, afterwards I just walk myself slowly and safely back online, always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 289b

Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get the chance to post before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 336 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, TWFT topic's 'Understanding Our Heavenly Father (2)' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's thirty-three but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed FORTY-TWO MINUTES online after I get back home this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?

• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 10:36, I lasted 6:43. Now, lemme play ne more game lasting in between five and six minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature did call @ 5am when the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to tip bins but I was feeling really sleepy still and asked my bladder could I lease sleep some more? Promise I'll use the pot :P when you next call! She said yes, and so Shirley and I cuddled and snored happily till 6:05am~
• After relieving myself, I spent the ten minutes till 6:15am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD
• Shirley and I cuddled and snored, me waking hourly until Kim announced her arrival fractionally after 8am. While she doesn't bid me good morning like Besta does, she @ least knows to tell me fifteen more minutes and not suggest I get up, else Shirley will give her the bear bum. XD
• When she comes back fifteen minutes later, we get me kitted then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth before 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 walked 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 half a bowl of plain porridge, one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with half a slice of cheese, one small mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small mug of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey. Over breakfast, I spent another 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!  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 

Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. Seven's morning news was read aloud by Sally Bowrie. All the interesting surnames I saw: Brokenshire, Kadak, Hagan, Melverton and Finch. 1AUD = 68.13USc. Jim Wilson read the sports report and Angie Asimus read the weather forecast. Brisbane toms: 17-30.

Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1514. Righteo, final, final events for Thursday?

• Following the advice of that lawyer who rang me earlier today, I looked up the ombudsman and started filling out their complaint form, before @ 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: Kim's coming to help me up @ 9am.
• Fingers crossed I can watch Seven's morning news!
•  Seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage @ like 2pm.

Heylo again and god evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1450 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'My Hope And Confidence'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Before dinner, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle then over to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Sweet, dad lemme use the spoon I'd had the foresight to scoot my armchair over to get when eating arvo tea, meaning that's the 3rd time this month I've been exempt from getting myself cutlery for all three meals in one day! :D
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa little tong choi and three thin slices of tasteless soup pork. Pity that dad gleefully forced poor Ela to hold onto the dumbbell, but hey.
• Dinner was spooned down with one half bowl of lukewarm soup, after which Ela IMMEDIATELY released the dumbbell and 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 mover.  
• Spent five minutes videcalling with PIG mum; she's made it safely into China~
• Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm following ne last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for tonight, the final, final events for Thursday plus what's happening Friday, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 289

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1301 steps and secondly, TWFT topic's 'Understanding Our Heavenly Father (1)'.  Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:45am,and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 6:55am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD 
• At 4:57 I've played one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:48. Now, lemme play one more game lasting between five and six minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Now @ 5:11pm I've finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:27. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz for my first game I already lasted 7:12! Only will haveta note down today's events more briefly, since I've spent too long playing … XD
• Some new carer helped me up; she's got two daughters: one in middle high school and the other @ uni.
• GCCW was great like always; I got a round of applause for my performance last night being the queen's cat! Crystal helped me to the bathroom for morning tea and said she'd help me print out my next homework four our meeting next month!
• Only nobody came to pick me up after GCCW ended! o_O Gabby sat me outside and when nobody had appeared by 12:10pm I rang CODA. Eventually someone turned up, only after I used the loo once I asked her where she'd parked and she answered really faraway! In that case, I sat down, handed her my parking permit and said please bring your car closer.
• That took awhile; after going down two escalators and crossing the road I finally reached her car. Checking my mobile I discovered a message from Pastor Grace, asking are we coming? There food just arrived! I messaged back telling her we're coming; please eat first!
• Only this carer didn't know the way, even with her GPS! XD I'm not any help since I totally lack direction sense, but when she suddenly entered the highway I said you've definitely gone off course! I messaged the Lungs and apologised sheepishly, saying sorry not gonna make it; how about lunch next week?
• When we finally arrived I ordered the teriyaki chicken rice (not fried rice) with a cold milk tea. Will stick with the fried rice in the future; while the normal rice comes with one whole bowl of white rice, some of the chicken chunks of inedible pieces (tendon?) and besides, green capsicums and mushrooms are yucky. XD 
• Got home and took my quickest possible shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to the carer who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted (the carer today was like Tina; she needed step-by-step instructions but fair enough, she's new XD) I headed out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, which was some pear and some apple with one mug of peppermint tea.
• Did a stinky unspeakable before plopping online.
• Toms: perhaps expect a pissy plodding total from me? Kim's coming to help me up @ 9am.
• Fingers crossed I can watch Seven's morning news!
• Seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture in the early arvo~
• Then Kim's coming back to mind me from 4pm till 6pm.
• Oh, and if dad insists I get offline @ 6pm, I'm still owed FORTY MINUTES-TWO online afterwards!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Seven's 6pm news was read out aloud by Sharyn Ghidella and Max Futcher. All the interesting surnames I saw: Windham, Kramer, D'Ath, Whitfeld, Nugent (heard), Mooney, Hampson, Lyon, Dry, Leu, Cromwell, Crawford, Palasczuk, Titmus Estorffe and Vorias. Pity that dad ordered that I head over from the television from 6:25pm, meaning I can't remember who read the sports report nor the weather forecast for toms  but hey, it's like the 23RD time I've gotten to watch the entire Seven's news 6pm bulletin this year! :D Oh, one more interesting surname I remember after heading over to the sofa to watch television: Andoloro, and 1AUD = 68USc.

Wednesday Post 289f

Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2076. Righteo, just briefly, final, final events for tonight?

• Kim said to me, "No wheelchair parking," just as a member of GCCW appeared and offered to take me inside first while Kim went to repark the car!
• Inside, I took a seat on the most left; Gabby immediately bustled over and got me one plate of supper. It's not often I get supper before dinner! XD
• When our launch started, Ken chaired, Gabby and someone discussed the editing process then Stan shared his story before Alison and I were up! Hopefully I did okay~ Might drop her an e-mail toms if I don't see her @ the meeting toms~

• I have some fruit and one mug of green/peppermint tea for arvo tea; shortly after 5:30pm Shannon starts the drive to QUT Gardens Point for Toastmasters!

• Now @ 5:01pm I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 5:53. That's today's quotas satisfied, and I now promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I'm actually also played one more memorable game lasting 8:28!
• Even better: after supper I joined my small group for supper (dinner for me) @ Maccas; the serving person mistakenly put TWO small fries into my Happy Meal Box! I just took out the other and handed it to Doug, telling my small group to share it. XD
• Doug drops me back home; dad's having some church meeting with Aunty Frances, Simon Rong and two other people I don't recognise; someone has brought a lil packet of green tea rolls and I get one!
• Then I note down my final, final plodding total, bid everyone good night and hit the sack. Zzz~
• Today: yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature doesn't call until 7:10am~
• Some new carer called Evelyn from Staffing Options helps me up; she guessed I was only twenty-one! XD

• Had a boiled egg and cheese sandwich for lunch with one mug of peppermint tea.
• Nat took me out to the NAB. Physio today: lay down for Kat and Chryselle and Kat to assess Elf, two 10m walk tests and 102 single leg pushups for Elf on Tower of Power. Ethan had an RDO today; Sonia and Kat were evil for laughing when I told them Elf feels like falling off. >< XD
• Came home, showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Nat who rinsed out hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

Anyways, just briefly let's start off with last night's events first!

• Shannon comes to mind me exactly @ 4pm. I let her inside, then take a nice hot shower, washing and rinsing my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 298

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1362 steps and secondly, TWFT topic's 'God Will Take Care Of You'. Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, my awesome sleep streak ended this morning @ 12:40am and demanded I use the pot; never mind, I'm just grateful she lemme achieve the 22ND this year I've enjoyed one straight week of consecutive awesome sleeps last night! XD
• Nature called again around 6:50, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7am 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*
• Shirley and I cuddled and snored, me waking again for the pot :P one hour later. Suddenly,
  Nat arrives @ 8:05am! Lol, her shift doesn't start till 8:30am, but dad invited her inside for a cuppa while I counted down my fifteen more minutes. Actually Nat tried coming back in thirty seconds too early but Shirley threatened to bear bum her if she didn't bugger off for another half minute. XD
• At 2:21pm I've played one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:13. Now, lemme finish one more game lasting in between five and six minutes, and I'll promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• When Nat returns, she gets me kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Nat who squirts out some toothpaste for me.
• Now @ 2:45pm I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 5:40. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, because for my first game I already lasted 7:12!
• Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coming outside when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered, coz Nat couldn't find any but instead she whacked a slice of cheese for me!) toast, all my usual drugs :P and one mug of white tea with two  sugars. Thanks to Nat who turned on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure; over breakfast 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*
• Breakfast finished, Nat takes me to the bathroom and I do a stinky unspeakable, 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!  
• That done, we get into the Camry and Nat tootles me off to see Vincent the bloody physio for my weekly torture session.
• Physio today: stood most session, bent twenty times to ground (ten for Ela to move object, the other ten for Ela's fingers to touch the ground), timed reaching for both hands and weight shifting.
• Afterwards, Nat tootles me off to see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage. Turns out Aunty Anne was the person seeing Aunty Anne for a massage before me!
• We chat briefly, then I head in.
• Oh, 'twas the nicest massage I've had for a long while; there was actually conversation! Usually, I'm silent, Aunty Ann just makes affirmative sounds and PIG mum just YAPS. XD
• When that's finished, Nat rekits me, I use the loo for one more tinkle, sit down for just under one mug of water then say my thanks and byes to Aunty Anne.
• Nat tootles me home and kindly gets me a spoon for lunch before leaving about fifteen minutes early. She's back tomorrow and taking me to the NAB for physio.
• Lunch is just rice leftovers from the previous nights and is spooned down with a bowl of soup.
• One more tinkle for me before I return online.
• Shannon's minding me from 4pm and taking me to Toastmasters tonight! Will grab a Happy Meal from Maccas on the way back hopefully~ 
• Toms: someone new called Evelyn will help me up tomorrow morning … hope she's nice! Must do GCCW homework after she goes.
• Nat's coming back to take me to the NAB for physio and will see me home and showered before leaving @ 4:15pm.
• Then Kim's not coming till 6pm because she's not taking me to choir practice but rather our book launch! Must remember to ask dad has he bought me a 2L bottle of juice yet.
• But will be back home by 8:30pm; fingers crossed dad will feed me some rice for dinner!
• Righteo, hop everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Good evening again and one final greeting for Monday! Em's final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2540. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for Monday?

• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one tinkle and back, always above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Nat's coming @ 8:30am to help me up; fingers crossed she'll make me a white tea with two sugars for breakfast!
• She's taking me to see Vincent the bloody physio for my weekly torture session ... stress abounds. ><
• Then right after, she's taking me to see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage before dropping me back home @ 1pm for lunch with dearest dad ... wonder if she'll kindly get me a spoon before leaving ..
• Will hopefully get to spend all my most important two hours of the day online before Shannon comes to mind me from 4pm; then she's taking me to Toastmasters!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,

Good evening! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2437. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When dad hadn't called dinner by 7:30pm, I called out, asking what time was our evening meal gonna happen? Dad replies, come over now, and just after I'd used the loo for one tinkle, grabbed myself a spoon and sat down, PIG mum WhatsApp video chatted us!  Today she bought me tops and toms she's meeting all mu guma for lunch!
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa bok choy, some salmon and some coral trout.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I walked myself slowly and safely online,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl shortly after 9pm following one more loo trip 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!

Monday Post 298e

Good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for Monday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2310. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• At 5:26pm I've finished one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:55. Now, lemme play one more game lasting between five and six minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Now @ 5:38pm I've finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:39. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to hit the sack willingly tonight. But today's events just briefly:
• Alyssa came and gave Ela a session of OT.
• Had tasteless leftovers with dad for lunch @ home.
• Tina took me out to Warrigal Square Woolies to buy groceries; we bumped into Chris! I had a chat with her while Tina was scanning items through the self-serve checkouts; I shoved her my viola shoots and she says her sweet potato shoots are looking just the same! Then she offered me more coz the promotion will end soon, but I said no thanks coz remember how she already randomly handed me another four? I'm waiting for PIG mum to get back and help me plant these!
• Came home; Jo gave me a session of physio: stood entire session, stepping for Erf (first and second steps), eight laps backwards walking and thirty mini squats. I muttered quietly to her (in Canto) why I couldn't do hydro today; Jo just laughed. XD
• Showered afterwards.
• Ate one yummy pear and three slices of orange for arvo tea; drank one mug of peppermint tea, read for one hour then used loo for one tinkle before returning online.
• Toms: Natalie's coming to help me up @ 8am; fingers crossed she'll make me a mug of white tea with two sugars like how Kim refused to this morning! Then I think she's taking me to see Vincent the bloody physio for a torture session, home for lunch then Aunty Ann for a massage.
• Shannon's minding me from 4pm and taking me out to Toastmasters afterwards!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 298d

Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1058 (ha, I'm just over one grand XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after Tina leaves!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Shirley and I cuddled and snored for one more hour, me waking once more for the pot :P before Kim comes to help me up. Actually, she gives me fifteen more minutes but comes back thirty seconds too early; luckily after I told her "Thirty more seconds," she went and emptied the pot :P first instead. XD
• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 12:55pm I lasted 5:04. Now, lemme play one more game lasting in between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 22ND time this year I've enjoyed one consecutive weeks of awesome sleeps!! :D Nature didn't call until 6:50am, and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7:00am 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*

Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3156 and secondly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's now fifteen. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm, I walk 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, fingers crossed I can achieve one more awesome sleep tonight; if I do, that'll be the 22ND tie this year I've achieved one straight week of awesome sleeps! :D
• Toms: Kim's coming to help me up @ 8:30am.
• Alyssa's giving Ela a session of OT @ 10am.
• Fingers crossed I can watch Seven's morning news!
• Tina's coming from 1pm till 4pm but hurrah, I'm not going to blasted hydro coz my monthlies aren't finished yet! Not that I get a break from physio; dad's gonna get Claire to come gimme a land session instead. Oh, so perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me toms; I might stay @ home all day.
• Fingers crossed I can watch the whole 6pm news bulletin! Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead`
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 298b

Heylo again and good evening! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3093. Righteo, continuing Sunday's events?

• Too bad, PIG mum was around and ordered I get myself a spoon; I'd been hoping she'd already gone upstairs to change and I could've scooted my chair over to the drawer and get cutlery. 
• Breakfast was one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast tossed into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and half a mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I spent another 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! 
• PIG mum sends me to the loo again before we leave for the airport; I vaguely recall doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Yay PIG mum sits in the backseat with me for the drive to the airport; Ela and Era both hold hands with her~
• At the airport, PIG mum tries gleefully forcing poor Ela to hold the luggage trolley but isn't successful; after walking the length of the airport she leaves me seated and goes to check-in. 
• When dad comes back, PIG mum takes me once more to the loo before we hug and kiss bye. Dad and I then head over to wait for PIG mum to get through customs.
• We both poke @ our smartphones until PIG mum appears, then I hang over the barrier and mobile phone call to say bye again.
• Afterwards, dad and I make the long walk back to the car.
• I thought we'd go straight to church but dad has to go home first because my Bible bag's still @ home!
• At church, I think I'll make the last five minutes but as I'm heading in, Katie walks out! I ask and learn that Bible study has already finished for the day, oops. XD
• But aren't I a good student? Since Katie said Uncle William was still inside, I walk into the classroom and offer my apologies for being a no-show. XD
• Then I use the loo for one tinkle, grab some morning tea and sit down.
• Well before 11am, dad orders me to haul myself up for ESS. I grab my usual seat.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today! I sing everything I know, plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, mean absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today's Pastor Chris but his sermon's shorter than normal coz there's a baptism afterwards!
•  Just briefly, now; I'm nearly outta time: I use the loo once, change p ads then grab a cheap lunch with dad @ Maccas. We bump into Mr. Doug! He tells me his birthdate; I count quickly and correctly calculate he's seventy-five!
• Kim took me out to see The Joker! It wasn't scary, just sad … followed how he slowly lost his mind. Kim must've been bored senseless; I caught her tapping away @ her smartphone like six times!
• Came home, turned off alarm and showered - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was all done after 14% but happily fully leaned against the right side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling for Kim.
• I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mostly dried myself (thanks to Kim who kindly helped me dry my back, both legs and Era), mostly dry myself (again, thanks to Kim who kindly helps me cream my back, both calves and Era) then mostly rekit myself (thanks to Kim who kindly helps with Erf's sock, Elf's AFO and both laces). Then I use the loo for one more tinkle, dry inside both ears, wash and dry Era then 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. 
• For arvo tea Kim feeds me one yummy pear plus one mug of ginger and honey/lemon infusion. I read for awhile and she very gently and very sporadically massages Ela.
• When she leaves I use the loo once more for two tinkles, again 
  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over before plopping online.
• When dad summons me over for dinner I use the loo for one tinkle before joining him @ the gobbling :P table.
• Dinner tonight: rice,lotsa cos lettuce, lotsa yummy kailan, about two chunks of salmon and about three small chunks of delicious chicken. Pity that dad gleefully forces poor Ela to hold the stupid dumbbell, but hey.
• Dinner's washed down with one cup of water, after which Ela IMMEDIATELY releases the dumbbell and I walk myself slowly andsafely online, always
  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 following one last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight, the final, final spam count for the weekend plus what's happening Monday, else hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
