Friday Post 397d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 5227 (although I'm not certain I'm actually more than half a normal person because Wally gets excited whenever I hike stairs XD) and secondly, the final, final spam count for the week's now twenty-three. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 9pm, I visited the loo once more for one tinkle and then hiked upstairs for my yearly trip upstairs to visit my upstairs bedroom!
  • Before reaching there, though, I lay down briefly on the end room spare double bed, popped my head into the middle spare bedroom, hiked into the parents walk-in closet, lay down briefly on the parents' queen-sized bed and lastly visited my room! Huge thanks to PIG mum for actually clearing all the files and whatnot she'd heaped onto my bed; originally i'd feared i'd haveta move them all onto the floor and lying down myself! Since she went to the effort, I went to the effort of returning to the parents' bedroom and retrieving a pillow to lie down on. in bed, I pulled off both shoes, lay down and had a frank conversation with the cruel and unfaithful God. When PIG mum came upstairs to retrieve the rubbish, I thanked her for clearing my bed.
  • Around 10:15pm, I visited my loo (think my monthlies arrived), washed Era in my bathroom and headed back downstairs.
  • Woo: a year of ZERO FALLS during 2021; hopefully I'll stay as upright next year!
  • Going to finish my 2021 Reflections now and then looking forward to watching the 2022 fireworks! Will ring Aunty Nga afterwards; she said I could!
  • Toms: aiming to have gotten outta bed before midday; doesn't that ensure you'll not have an unlucky year? XD Fingers crossed dad'll take us out for dinner coz Sunday night I've been invited to Bill and Ingrid's place!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4723 (*ha, I'm over 4.5 grand XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Take Inventory' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'One Day Closer To Christmas'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • Once I'd reached my pissy two hour time limit, I began composing my Reflections for 2021! I also tuned into ABC's coverage of tonight's countdown!
  • When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.   

  •  Score, the parents lemme use the spoon I had the foresight to skoot my chair to get earlier this arvo, December has been satisfied THIRTY-ONE times!!! :D:D:D:D

  • Dinner tonight: leftover fried rice and no greens! But lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup potato, mlotsa soup tomato and like one chunk of tasteless soup beef.

  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink 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, hopefully bbl after one more loo trip and my hike upstairs with my final, final plodding total for tonight, the final, final spam count for the week, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

  • Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4462 (ha, should pass 4.5 grand before the night's out! XD) and secondly, the potential final, final spam count for the week's now twenty-one. Righteo, just briefly, potential final, final events for Friday?

  • PIG mum drove me to the Tsoi residence for high tea with them, the Slams, Ronnie jie jie and Uncle Tyrone!
  • Apparently 'twas for high tea but that was kinda jake coz there were only two layers! Sylvia jie jie made me this huge TEAPOT of Earl Grey tea though, and Uncle Ching had frothy milk!
  • Afterwards I used the loo once, crashed onto the sofa and played Candy Crush type games.
  • When we left I asked where's Ginger? Uncle Ching went into Ginger's room but the old cat wasn't there; he called out, "Sylvia, where's Ginger?" She went into another room and brought him out! Ela and Era both patted him and I gave him a kiss, saying, see you next year!
  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then popped online.
  • Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day I've gotta compose my Reflections For 2021!
  • So maybe bbl, but if not, happy 2021!!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 397

 Good afternoon and Happy New Years' Eve! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3253 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Outfitted And Empowered'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Believe In Your Vision' and fourthly, the spam count for the week's twenty but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed TWENTY MINUTES online after we get back from the Tsoi residence!! Anyways, events for today?

  • *sigh* PIG mum ruined my awesome sleep streak since she was noisily washing up after her cooking adventures last night ... well, past midnight. >< *sigh* Never mind, I'm just happy I managed to achieve twenty-five instances of one whole week of constant awesome sleeps!
  • Nature called again around 6:20am; after another pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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 usually calls every hour after that initial pot :P trip, but happiness was snoringsoundly until dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the door before waking again and relieving myself.
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore for about another hour, waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her usual daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside to await the carer's arrival.
  • It's Vicki! Not only that, she's got some very exciting news: she's PREGNANT! "Um, didn't you tell me you had polycystic ovarian sth and couldn't fall pregnant?" I asked her. Yes, but somehow she did anyway! It's still very early, though~
  • Breakfast was my yummy custard bun, all my usual drugs :P and one big mug of warm Milo. 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*

  •  After breakfast, I sit over the loo once more. There, 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!

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the passenger seat of Vicki's car and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central to buy my yummy BBQ pork salad roll for lunch and grocery shopping. Without the disabled parking permit she's unfortunately gotta park further away but immediately grabbed a trolley which I helped push, sweet.

  • Groceries from Woolies bought, we sit and poke @ our phones for about thirty minutes. Vicki visits the Discount Fruit Market to buy avocados for PIG mum and a box of mangoes for herself; before leaving I buy my yummy BBQ pork salad roll from the bakery.

  • Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Vicki who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

  • I have one tinkle before Vicki flips the nice warm water off, get dried, get creamed and have another tinkle. When Vicki rekits me, I have one more tinkle when she's helping with Erf's sock and one last when she's giving Wally back to Ela.

  • Back outside, I pour myself the boiling water into the ginger and lemon/honey infusion I'm drinking for lunch. I eat my delicious pork salad roll.

  • Apparently we're going to the Choi residence for arvo tea?

  • Fingers crossed dad'll take us out for dinner tonight; it's Jan the 1st toms and come the 2nd I'm going to Ingrid's place!

  • Gonna hike upstairs to my old bedroom tonight; if PIG mum's not cleared my bed of all her folders I'm just gonna shove them on the floor and lie down!

  • Must write 2021 reflections tonight! Should've started them earlier but I've been slack. XD

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else cya all come 2022!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 397d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight!  With a final, final plodding total of 3978, final, final events for Thursday?

  • After publishing the previous post, I continued composing my special blog post.
  • At 9pm, I walked myself 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.    
  •  It's the last day for 2021!Toms Vicki's minding me 9am till 1pm. PIG mum says I can buy a yummy pork salad roll for lunch @ Calamvale Central, yay! 
  • We're invited back to the Choi residence @ 3:30pm for arvo tea; dad apparently says Uncle Ching's offering French toast! Unsure how long we're staying there, though.
  • But around 9pm toms night I'm gonna make my annual hike upstairs to my original bedroom and flop onto my bed! I've asked PIG mum please to clear it, coz she's used my bed like her study table and covered it with files but she refuses to! Huh, I'm planning to just sweep everything onto the floor and lie down. >< *sigh*
  • Then I'll come back downstairs and bash out my 2021 reflections. Gonna stay up to welcome in the new year! Think ABC hosts the fireworks?
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week (and year!) toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, I've already logged in Thursday's plodding total @ 4832; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "In God's Eyes" and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Better Than Gold'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When the parents summoned me over for dinner @ 7:55pm, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table for dinner, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.    
  • Sweet, the parents lemme use the spoon Karina washed and returned to me after breakfast this morning; December has been satisfied THIRTY times!!!! :D :D :D :D
  • Dinner tonight: yummy fried rice with lots boiled Chinese vegies (bok choy).
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink 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.    
  • Gotta keep composing my special blog post now; fingers crossed I can bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday, else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week (and last day of 2021!) toms!

Thursday Post 397b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! I've already logged in today's total @ 4632 so just potential final, final events for Thursday?

  • Nature and PIG mum beginning her daily a-THUMPING around awoke me one hour later. After another pot :P trip, PIG mum appears to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Karina's arrival @ 7:30am.
  • After Karina arrived and gave me fifteen more minutes, I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, we got me kitted and I headed over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who squirts me some toothpaste~
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, just coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky speakable. Breakfast is one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD), one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one slice of toast buttered and spread with the orange jam that Anna made me for Christmas. Thanks to Karina who turned on on Today/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?

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
  • Whoops outta time, so just super-briefly:
  • Karina took me to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my final shopping trip of 2021!
  • Read Lian Hearn's 'Orphan Warriors' for one hour; bought groceries from Woolies and Coles.
  • Had lunch @ C Cafe.

 Good afternoon! Firstly, I'm gonna login today's plodding total @ 4632 (idiot Wally randomly reset himself and last Thursday I'd walked more steps than usual coz I'd gone Christmas present shopping with Karina and the Thursday before I'd attended Christmas parties so I've gone back three Thursdays for the plodding total); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'A Horrible Destiny' and thirdly, TWFT topic's "You Don't Haveta Hide Anymore" but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SEVEN MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home from her half day's work!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 12TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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.

Righteo, kinda briefly final, final events for tonight?

  • Lol, 'twas DAD who suddenly arrived home! I went back inside; lol, when PIG mum returned she immediately bit my head off for forgetting that she'd put the house keys inside my bag! Whoops, but that saved me from having to turn the alarm off once. XD
  • When Katarina arrived PIG mum let her in; I've always had bad facial recognition but add the face mask I'd zero hope of recognising her! XD
  • So a nice warm shower - hairwash today.  Also thanks to Kat who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. While I showered, Kat told me she's only twenty-three and studying some dual nursing/paramedic degree!
  • I had one tinkle before Kat flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. Kat helped me remember her: she's the one who accidentally coated me with moisturiser! When she said odd the moisturiser isn't rubbing into your body very well I was like uh, please check: think you've just coated me with showergel. Yup! XD
  • After getting rekitted I headed outside for an arvo tea of mango and some fruity infusion that wasn't very nice. Happiness was reading for one hour, after which Kat and I just chatted before I used the loo once more " 5:55pm nd signed her off with my thanks, byes, and prolly cya next years! XD
  • I happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 136TH time before returning online for myself. Once my most important two hours of the day were up, I switched to composing my special blog post.
  • When dinner still hadn't been called by 8pm, I asked when were we gonna eat? PIG mum replied soon and summoned me two hours later.
  • After dinner and soup I returned online and used the loo for one more tinkle " 9pm.
  • Toms: it's my final shopping trip with Karina for 2021! Just a pity I'll haveta turn the alarm off. >< XD
  • We're having lunch @ C Cafe but unsure can Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace can join coz they're still awaiting their COVID results.
  • After using up my most important two hours online I'll haveta finish my special blog post about Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, coz Friday's NYE and I've gotta compose my Reflections for 2021!
  • Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!

  • Anna told me how Kathleen's working @ the RBH now, her dad's a disability support worker with Centacare and how Tim recently found work with a disability employment service employment group doing packaging. 
  • After breakfast, we held hands and walked all the way to food court together; I gave Anna my purse and she returned with a soft serve cone for me; can you believe it; they're 65c now!! 
  • Breakfast over, we walked back to her car and Anna dropped me back home. Funny, PIG mum wasn't home? She didn't answer her mobile either. I said I'd just sit outside on the bench and wait for her; Anna was like, "Make sure you tell your mum I asked you @ least four/five times were you okay by yourself and you said yes!!" XD I promised her I'd text and let her know once I was safely in the house; while waiting, I randomly passed two more levels of Candy Crush!! XD
  • Lol, 'twas DAD who suddenly arrived home! I went back inside; lol, when PIG mum returned she immediately bit my head off for - bbl!

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for today now stands @ 2595 (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and NINE MINUTES online when I get home this arvo!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Shortly after dearest dad kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, PIG mum began her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO strap 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 only Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, just coming out right afterwards coz I had to write a Christmas card for Anna!
  • The intention was to do a stinky unspeakable before Anna arrived, but she got here when I'd only finished rubbing my tummy. No problem, I got off the loo and headed into her car straight away, leaving the stinky unspeakable for later.
  • PIG mum has stashed Green Sticky into Anna's backseat but Anna was cool with holding hands instead; I walked much faster with her support! She parked underground really faraway ...
  • After showing our vaccine certificates to the waiter, he kindly pointed us to the first available booth seat coz he saw I was disabled.
  • For breakfast, I ordered the pancakes egg brnedict and Anna got some kinda pancake smothered with nuts. She even shouted me a chocolate thickshake coz after I gave her the card and box of Ferrero Rocher she said she'd forgotten to get me anything so would shout me a drink instead!
  • Over breakfast, we just chatted. 
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 397b

 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 2406 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Glory Is The Goal' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Your Heart Must Be Circumcised' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-TWO MINUTES online after getting home this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 11TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:50am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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* 
  • Usually, nature calls every hour after that initial pot :P trip but today happiness was sleeping soundly all the way until dearest dad very considerately silently walked along the hallway and unpopped the lock leading into the garage before waking again for the pot. :P

Tuesday Post 396d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4072. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I Facebooked, blogged and started composing an email to Michelle, asking who was gonna come mind me toms arvo from 4pm till 6pm.
  • 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.   
  • Toms: excitement: Anna's picking me up @ 8:30am; we're going to the Pancake Manor for a post-Christmas celebration! I've not seen her all year and even better, she says we can eat dessert afterwards! I've Googled around and apparently there's a shaved ice place somewhere @ Garbo!!
  • PIG mum may not feed me any lunch after I've had pancakes for breakfast with Anna, though ... XD
  • Seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture toms arvo; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him.
  • Hope someone comes to mind me 4-6pm! I've already emailed Michelle about it.
  • Ooh and maybe I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 136TH time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,

Tuesday Post 396c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4028 (ha, I'm just over four grand XD); secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Great Wisdom' and thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's "Grandma Grace's Bible." But I'm nearly outta time, so just super-briefly?

  • Lunch was some leftover turkish bread with BBQ chook, mayo and lettuce; alas that PIG mum wouldn't gimme a slice of cheese. *sigh*
  • Dad took us for belated boxing Day sales @ Capalaba Park Shopping Centre! I bought a pair of PFs, PIG mum bought a dress and dad got himself a pair of socks before we sat and munched sushi.
  • Back home, I took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, I plopped online until being summoned for dinner.
  • Woo, December has been satisfied TWENTY-EIGHT times!!! :D :D :D Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa lettuce, one small slice of beef, one small chunk of chicken and one BBQ chook chicken drumstick that I traded PIG mum for my another slice of meat for!
  • Dinner was washed down with one mug of water, after taking the cup over to the fridge I returned online.
  • 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 plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing Wednesday ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 396b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 3752. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, just coming out when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • After pouring myself one full mug of water, breakfast is one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of toast very lightly buttered and spread with a tiny dab of Anna's orange jam, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. 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, 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. There, 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!

  • After washing and drying Era, 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.   

  • Actually, no! After visiting the loo I crashed on the couch with Cuddles the blue Broncos bear I vaguely recall Dr. Lee giving me and watched Ready Player One on DVD! Great movie, if rather long - I had to pause the movie once and use the loo; the parents actually had lunch without me! XD

  • Fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner, since I'm still owed THIRTEEN MINUTES online!!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 396

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 832 steps (but will hopefully leave the house next and have a larger plodding total to report later); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'What Is Your Aim?' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Avoid Habits That Can Enslave You' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SIX MINUTES online when I get home later!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes 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 called hourly after that, the last time I awoke for the pot :P was shortly after 9am when noisy PIG mum began her daily 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 not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 396d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1926. Lol, perhaps I'll crack two grand toms. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I started composing my special blog post on how I'd spent my Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day!
  • At 9am, 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: hope PIG mum helps me up...
  • Planning to watch the Ready Player One DVD Amanada lent me; we've already discussed Ready Player Two for our book club novel for last month!
  • Seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage toms arvo; bet PIG muj's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • A fourth consecutive day without support ... luckily I figured out how to wash Era by myself! It's awkward, but she gets cleaned.
  • Ooh, then maybe I can watch the 6pm news for the 136TH time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 396c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1748; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Having More Than The Angels' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Right Hand. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • So a nice warm shower for me - I wash and rinse my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 15% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  • I have one tinkle before I flip the nice warm water off and call PIG mum back. After she dries my back and the back of the chair for me, I do everything else and she doesn't feature again until my bra strap needs doing up, Elf's AFO straps need doing and both laces need tying. 
  • After drying the loo lid, sitting for one tinkle, drying inside both ears and washing then drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.    
  • The Slams arrive while PIG mum's upstairs showering; I yell for dad but he's like, "You answer the door."
  • Both parents reappear immediately after I've let them in; dinner's served early @ like 5:45pm! Disappointing fare: for the second consecutive day, I've not had any rice! >< *wails* Just BBQ food.
  • I returned online briefly myself but was summoned back around 7:30pm for PIG mum's mango dessert. Nice, but not sweet enough. Also, consistency was slightly too thick.
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after one final loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Tuesday, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 396b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1377. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Breakfast prolly was one slice of toast spread lightly with butter and Anna's orange jam, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD). 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*

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of dad's 4WD; dad said he's taking us belated Boxing Day sales shopping today coz yesterday would've been too busy. Originally I'd hoped we'd visit Westfield Carindale coz the parents lemme use Sparkless3; my heat sank when dad took the direction to the Hyperdome coz the last time we visited there I'd not been allowed manual wheelchair usage. ?< *sigh*
  • Imagine my relief when dad opened the boot and got out Sparkless3 for me!! :D
  • Our first stop was QBS; I bought three books with the voucher Mrs. Dent had given me, but snarky mother ruined my enjoyment of getting the books when she snapped the money was really coming from HER, rubbing in the fact that I'm financially dependent on her. >< *sigh*
  • But then I got tees from JayJays and was very happy with that!
  • For lunch we shared a tropicana pack from Red Roosters and dad bought some kinda bread thing with tuna inside. PIG mum went somewhere and got coffee.
  • Then she bought like two tops from Rebel Sport; I was very impressed with their changerooms: one had a disabled sign and was bigger to fit my wheelchair in!
  • Shopping done, dad tootled us home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then popped online.
  • Lol, I swear PIG mum somehow keeps track of how long I spend online, *two minutes* after I'd enjoyed my most important two hours of the day online, she summoned me over to the gobbling :P table to eat arvo tea!
  • When she handed me a banana, Era immediately tore it open and I took a huge chomp before PIG mum could get a knife and force poor Ela to feed me it; she also made me one yummy mug of vanilla chai with some milk and I happily read for about forty minutes, until PIG mum ordered me off to shower.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 396

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 927 steps (so should've cracked 1000 before the day's out); secondly, J0hn Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'How To Contemplate Calamity' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Forgive Yourself. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Natture didn't call until 4:55am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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* 
  • Then Uber and I snore happily, me waking hourly for the pot :P until PIG mum begins her daily 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 not only the bra strap but the tee (because dearest dad's @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • After she comes back and helps with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.




Sunday Post 396e

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2151 (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Day After'; thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Timely Resolution' and fourthly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's now just five. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • Not only did PIG mum pass me one yummy banana (which Era immediately peeled and chomped before PIG mum decided she wanted poor Ela to gleefully force me to eat it XD), she even made me one delicious mug of vanilla chai with milk and then left me alone to happily read Grass For His Pillow for one hour!
  • Very shortly after I returned online, PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland and said go shower.
  • So a nice warm shower for me today - I washed and rinsed my own hair. I also sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was actually all done after only 9%, but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before flipping the nice warm water off and calling PIG mum back.
  • After she dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra straps needed doing, Elf's AFO straps needed tying and both laces needed doing. Even worse: since the next two days are makeup public holidays, I'll not get any support for showering again until Wednesday. >< *sigh*
  • After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, washed and dried Era and walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.    
  • When the parents said dinnertime, I used the loo for one more tinkle and climbed into the backseat of dad's 4WD.
  • Originally, dad had planned to take us to somewhere like Capalaba for fish and chips, but the place was closed since it's Boxing Day today! Instead, the parents found some Pizza Hut takeaway; PIG mum was disgruntled coz they charged public holiday surcharge. I was disgruntled coz the person carving up the pizza wasn't any good; the four slices I had were tiny! Like, one bite in and I'd already reached the crust. >< *sigh*
  • Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle and 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.    
  • Christmas present unwrapping time! :D I got not one, not two, but THREE POM POM pens! :D
  • Toms: dunno? Makeup public holiday, so no support for me. >< *sigh* Perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total; I may just stay in bed with Uber until 5:45pm and then get up to watch the 6pm news. XD
  • Hope everyone has a smashing week ahead! Me, it'll be my second (and final ><) week of annual holiday from blasted physio ...
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S. Tee hee, today I managed FIVE posts! That doesn't usually happen Sundays! XD Oh, maybe since it's Christmas holidays now?

Sunday Post 396d

 Good afternoon again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 1747 and secondly, the new spam count for the weekend's now just four. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Precisely two hours after I'd started my most important two hours of the day online, I got off the computer and headed towards the gobbling :P table, calling upstairs to PIG mum would she please gimme some arvo tea?
  • Not only did PIG mum pass me one yummy banana (which Era immediately peeled and chomped before PIG mum decided she wanted poor Ela to gleefully force me to eat it - bbl!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 396c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for Sunday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 1456. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Once back under the covers with Uber, I spend ten minutes 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*

  •  I wake again for another pot :P trip around 7am, when PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo; dunno why she came inside so early, considering Kim wasn't arriving until 8:30, but when she poked me, saying, "Eye goo," I sat upright, gave her a big hug and said HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

  • Then I had a massive snore, coz I didn't wake again for the pot :PO until dearest dad came to kiss me bye before leaving for church! Kim arrived shortly afterwards; she was good, knocking, saying good morning and fifteen more minutes before leaving Uber and I be. XD

  • When she came back, we got me kitted and I headed over to the bathroom to brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, just coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.

  • Breakfast is one slice of toast lightly buttered and spread with some of that orange jam Anna gave us yesterday, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD). 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.

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 breakfast, I walked 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. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

  • After washing and drying Era, 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 over to give Ela a very brief, gentle and sporadic massage, before she tootles me off to church for ESS.

  • I use the loo for one tinkle on arrival and then sign her off with my thanks and byes; she's not back till next year and this morning she even brought a Christmas present for me!

  • Yay I got to stay seated for worship today. I sang everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

  • Speaker today was Reverend Chris with the second-last/last sermon from the Advent series; cripes, we saw his pre-recorded sermon today coz Naomi was the close contact for some positive case, meaning they've all had to be tested and self-isolate! Wonder will Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace be free for lunch together this Thursday ...

  • After using the loo for one tinkle, dad tootled us to the Rochedale Maccas for lunch; it's nearby Uncle Ching's place! He got me a Happy Meal and himself a double cheeseburger medium meal; Aunty Denise and Uncle Yuk Tai came too and sat two tables away from us! Meaning I got to play my mobile during lunch coz they were chatting. XD

  • After dad tootled us home I used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.

  • Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and ask PIG mum to please feed me some arvo tea.

  • Dad says we might go out for fish and chips tonight to celebrate PIG mum's birthday!

  • Looking forward to opening all my presents tonight! :D

  • Toms: Think Nisha's still quarantining; wonder who's coming and what PIG mum'll send us to do? I'm starting my second week of annual leave, anyhow~

  • Ooh, hopefully I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 136TH time!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone enjoys the last week of 2021!!
    Cheers,

 Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 353 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Three Christmas Presents'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Celebrate Christmas (2)!' and fourthly, the spam count for the weekend's just three but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY MINUTES online when I get home this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 8th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:05am, and wasn't I good? When I swung myself over to the pot :P I refrained from YELLING upstairs, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PIG mum!!" XD
    Cheers,

 Good morning! :P

Saturday Post 396d

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ around 1652; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Step Outside' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Christmas Child'. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

  • After enjoying my most two important two hours of the day online, I got offline and headed towards the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum could she please feed me some arvo tea? 'Twas dearest dad who handed me one yummy banana; not only that, he even peeled it for me! Mother's NEVER that helpful. XD
  • Took a nice warm shower afterwards - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 16% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  • After getting dried, creamed and rekitted 'twas time to head to the Choi residence for the barbie!
  • When we arrived Uncle Ching kindly brought Ginger out to say hi and I gave him a pat; wow, he's SEVENTEEN now!
  • Then I flopped onto a sofa and played Candy Crush type games while the men fired up the barbie and the women chatted.
  • PIG mum took me once to the loo before dinner; I managed fine by myself.
  • Dinner was disappointing but I felt loved coz Uncle Ching actually cooked some rice for me! Also loved Slyvia jie jie's mashed potato~
  • Before we left there was cake; PIG mum made a DELICIOUS one! Both Sylvia and I had seconds!
  • Before we left I asked to say bye to Ginger; Uncle Ching led me into Ginger's private room, which resembles a mini laundry! When I called PIG mum to please come take a photo of us together, Uncle Ching just picked him up, carried him outside and placed him on the kitchen bench! I braced against it and PIG mum took some happy snaps for us~
  • After getting home, I used the loo for one more tinkle and returned online.
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that Boxing Day means it's PIG mum's BIRTHDAY!! 
  • Just a pity the parents won'tt take me to the Boxing Day sales and I can't find anyone to take me! ><
  • Actually, I don't even know will dad invite anyone over for PIG mum's birthday dinner!
  • But I'm opening all my presents from Santa toms night!
  • Righteo, again, MERRY CHRISTMAS and looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 396c

 Good afternoon and potentially one last greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ only 852, since I've still not left the house yet today! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Around 12:30pm the parents summoned me over for lunch. Unfortunately, 'twas disappointing: Christmas lunch was one bowl of boiled soupy pasta with lots soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, one slice of tasteless soup beef and one slice of tasteless soup chicken, but without sauce?
  • I helped prepare the cake mix for awhile, using the electric mixer until I got bored and returned online. XD Wonder will PIG mum get me to help decorate the cake with her?
  • Will shower this arvo before heading off to Uncle Ching's place! Isn't dad sweet? He's already saved me a mouthful of rice coz Uncle Ching's firing up the barbie tonight!
  • So maybe bbl, but if not, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 396b

 Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Yes, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!! :D Firstly, today I've only been hard @ work plodding 541 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Two Purposes For Christmas' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Celebrate Christmas (1)'! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like last year and the year before, I've achieved TWENTY-FIVE times when I've scored ONE STRAIGHT WEEK OF AWESOME SLEEPS!! :D Nature actually tried calling partway through the night but I managed to fall asleep again without needing to relieve myself, phew! 
  • Nature didn't call until 4:55am; while I'm using the pot :P I screech upstairs and bid both parents a very Merry Christmas; when no reply comes I presume silly PIG mum forgot to leave the baby monitor on last night, didn't hear me and just returned to bed, where I spend ten minutes 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 called hourly until PIG mum let herself into my room about 9am and hit me with the eye goo. Oh, I feel loved coz she said Merry Christmas first! :D
  • She also said Uncle Ching had invited us over to his place this arvo for a dinner BBQ! Meaning I'd shower this arvo before we left and don't need to put a bra on now.
  • So I just gave myself fifteen more minutes, got myself mostly independently kitted and waited for PIG mum to come back and help with only Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before letting her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for five minutes, just coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • Coz it's Saturday, dad cooked some scrambled eggs and coz it's Christmas, PIG mum added some of that orange jam Anna made for us and made me one cup of chai! 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*
  • After breakfast, 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. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.

  •  After washing and drying Era, 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.   

                                             

  • Hmm ... it's nearing 12:30pm; wonder when the parents will call lunch?

  • PIG mum says shower after lunch coz then we're going over to Uncle Ching's place for a BBQ!

  • Toms: just church, nothing special. Kim's helping me up @ 8:30am and then dropping me off @ BCAC for ESS before leaving @ 11am.

  • Oh, I really wanna hit the Boxing Day sales afterwards but dad won't take me coz toms arvo he's playing baddy with his mates and PIG mum won't take me either, since she claims she can't lift Sparkless3 anymore! ><

  • But hopefully dad'll invite someone over to our place for dinner tomsa night and he'll cook a yummy spread for PIG mum's birthday, after which I'm opening my Christmas presents!! XD

  • May not bbl, so looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!

Friday Post 396c

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3455 (aw, I'm sure I'll reach 3.5 grand some other night; just not TOnight XD) and secondly, the final, final spam count for the week's now forty-six. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I walked myself 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: it's CHRISTMAS! Usually PIG mum demands me attend church @ Redeemer but this year she's not certain coz of COVID ... Well, if we don't attend she'll prolly order I watch the Redeemer one through live stream; BCAC doesn't have a Christmas Day service.
  • So, perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me? Originally, Anna tried suggesting yum cha with Anna's mum, but I was immediately like NO THANKS!! Me don't like yum cha, see. XD Instead, the parents have like invited her and Uncle Slam over for arvo tea?
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 396b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3421 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Christmas In The Stable'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • Precisely two hours after I'd started my most important two hours of the day online, I got off and headed over to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum could she please feed me some arvo tea? She handed me a banana (which Era quickly peeled and I wolfed down before she could think about gleefully forcing poor Ela to feed me it XD) and poured me one cup of green tea. Then I happily read Grass For His Pillow until dad said 'go use the loo; I'll drive you to church now."
  • When getting outta the car, the first person I see's Kwany with Daniel, and DFaniel hands a present to me! I ask high five Aunty Em? And Daniel immediately does!
  • I took a seat on the most left; Lam gave me one little electric candle and Wilfred sat two seats from me.
  • Janice led several Christmas carols and Pastor Grace delivered a short message.
  • Afterwards, everyone left the room! Seeing as nobody came back for me, I made my way slowly outta the room. After I'd stepped out, Josh saw me and asked was I alright? I asked him could he please walk behind me to the kitchen window because I want my drumstick? Josh goes sure and walks behind me to the open window. When I reach it, Charlie's shaking an empty box and I'm like please say you've got another one but there's none left!!! >< Instead, I suck an orange Zooper Dooper but my Christmas has been ruined. >< XD Joey got a chair for me; I sat and chatted with Lisa and Binda. Dad appeared briefly, saying meet me up in the main hall; when everyone left Lisa walked behind me up to the main hall. I grabbed a chair on the most left and said my thanks and byes.
  • Dad didn't come get me and drive me home till 7:40pm coz he was carpark usher.
  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle. Christmas Eve dinner was the usual bland affair.
  • After drinking soup I read for twenty-five more minutes since I like reading for @ least one hour each day when possible.
  • After taking my bowl over to the sink, I walked myself slowly and safely back online,  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 now with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Saturday, else wishing everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS for toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 396

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2121 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Indescribable Gift"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Best Gift Ever!'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Prince Of Peace' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's forty-four. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past few days, nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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* 
  • Usually, nature calls every hour after that initial pot :P trip but happiness today was snoring soundly with Uber all the way until dearest dad very thoughtfully silently walks along the hallway and unpops the lock leading into the garage before waking again for the pot. :P
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore for another hour, waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo and then going back out again and awaiting Amy's arrival @ 9am.
  • When Amy arrives, she remembers to knock, say good morning and ask fifteen more minutes? Uber nods @ her and she smartly leaves. When she comes back fifteen minutes later, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys her third consecutive instance of not having to hold the toothbrush, score!
  • One hour left, so kinda briefly:
  • Had breakfast, did a number two and then went out with Amy to Calamvale Central for walkies, grocery shopping and pork salad roll buying before sitting and having like thirty minutes to poke @ our mobiles; I passed another two levels of like Candy Ceush Jelly Saga!
  • Got home, turned alarm off and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Amy who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Amy flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Amy rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf's AFO straps and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
  • Back outside, Amy returned to clean the bathroom and I quickly scrawled her out a Christmas card; PIG mum rifled through the pantry and found her some edible gift she'd gotten from ALDI.
  • Lunch was my delicious pork salad roll and one mug of green tea; @ exactly 2pm I signed Amy off with my thanks, byes and Merry Christmas!
  • Lunch finished, I used the loo for one tinkle. PIG mum's already nagged me once about getting off, but I'm not budging until I've used up the entirety of my most important two hours of the day online!
  • Toms: it's CHRISTMAS! All I know for certain's that we're attending church for Christmas day; PIG mum DEMANDS we attend church every Christmas? Since BCAC's not holding a Christmas service, we'll attend the one @ Redeemer.
  • Haven't got any plans for the rest of the day ... Anna tried suggesting having yum cha with Uncle Slam's mum but I'm like please no! Think dad's invited them over to our place for arvo tea instead.
  • Hopefully bbl after service tonight, but if not, wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 396d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 6858. 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.   
  • Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
  • Toms: Amy's minding me 9am till 1pm. PIG mum won't decide where we're going until toms.
  • Toms night I'm got Christmas Eve service @ BCAC, though!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 396c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 6765 and secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "How They'll Know". Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When dad arrived home from swimming, I immediately asked him could we please have our family dinner out tonight? Coz toms night we're attend Christmas Eve service @ church, Saturday's Christmas Day (so church again for Christmas service) and Sunday's normal church day! Imagine my frustration when dad said no; he says he'll make up that meal, but does he know how many he's already offered to make up?? Dad says I'm not allowed to remind him else he'll cancel them, but what'll happen when he conveniently 'forgets'?? >< BTW, @ last count, it's now FIVE dinners he's said he'll make up for. >< *sigh*
  • When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely 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, the parents lemme use the spoon Karina kindly passed me after breakfast for dinner; December has been satisfied TWENTY-THREE times!!! :D :D :D
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa yummy lettuce, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot, some soup tomato skin, one lil piece of beef and one I'll chunk of chicken.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup and dessert was my advent chocolate for like the past three days (I keep forgetting it! ><" XD); after taking my bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely over back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.    
  • Anyways, hopefully brb after one final lloo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday, else hope everyone has a smadhind to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 396b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 6409 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'What Child Is This?' Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • First, I visit the loo for one tinkle, before grabbing Lian Hearn's 'Orphan Warriors' flopping into a squashy single armchair and reading for about one hour. The book title appeared on page 188, I reached pg. 200 @ 10:10am and I finished reading on pg. 220.
  • After posting an update onto Facebook, Karina and I began shopping!
  • First, we headed upstairs to Coles and bought groceries before heading over to  Kmart and bought PIG mum a birthday present! Tried finding dearest dad a Christmas present there too but nothing suited; instead, I hiked over to Best & Less and found him sth cool there.
  • Our last stop for the day was Woolies; I felt loved because Caitlin had a present for me! Only 'twas a box of Ferrero Rocher... XD
  • For lunch Karina tootled us off to C Cafe! I had my favourite BBQ duck plus a fried egg with a cold HK-style milk tea coffee; Karina has the roast BBQ pork with fried rice (costs three bucks more than normal rice and a Coke. Since she eats fast (actually, I just eat slow XD) after she'd finished she went down to Coles and found the item PIG mum had wanted (some kinda ham); when she came back I was tucking into my last mouthful of food. XD
  • Back home, I turned the alarm off and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Thanks to Karina who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Karina flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Karina rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Elf's AFO straps and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
  • Back outside, I boot the computer up, Karina returns to clean the bathroom and once she's done I head over to the gobbling :P table and sign her off, coz it's already 3:30pm! Since present shopping had taken longer than just grocery shopping, today I just took my quickest possible shower.
  • When PIG mum came home from her half day's work, I let her nab half my sausage bun for arvo tea and in return she gave me one cup of green tea.
  • When PIG mum finished arvo tea and moved back to lunch, I visited the loo and did another stinky unspeakable before returning online.
  • Originally planned to watch the 6pm bulletin from the mainframe but 9Now wouldn't load! o_O Luckily, PIG mum hadn't hit the sack yet and she kindly turned the television on for me.
  • Once the news finished, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then popped back online.
  • Frustration: when dad arrived home from swimming I immediately asked him could we please go out for dinner tonight? Can't toms coz I'm attending Christmas Eve service, can't Saturday night coz it's Christmas and can't Sunday night coz it's Boxing Day but dad said NO; he'll make it up another time instead!! >< Does he know how many meals he's already promised to make up?? He says if I remind him he'll cancel them all but what if he conveniently 'forgets'?? BTW, the count after tonight's FIVE meals. *sigh*
  • But I'm trying to cheer up, coz it's Christmas Eve toms! Mostly I'm just thankful that the headache has buggered off; can't remember who's coming to mind me toms but @ night I'm off to church for Christmas Eve service!
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 396

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 6122 steps (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'That You May Believe' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Handling Yor Money Wisely (3)'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Just like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip I immediately fall back asleep since I'm sure PIG mum will get very noisy one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, @ 7:10am I'm awoken again when PIG mum starts her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after another pot :P trip I spend ten minutes 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* 
  • About ten minutes after that, PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo before opening the door for Karina @ 7:30am.
  • She mids Uber and me good morning, offers us fifteen more minutes and wisely leaves when I nod Uber back @ her. When she comes back, I use the loo for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who squirts some toothpaste for me.
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, just coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD), one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast smeared with avocado and sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. 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*
  • After finishing breakfast, I sit over the loo once more. There, 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!
  • After washing and drying Era, I clim into the passenger seat of Karina's car and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown to go shopping!
  • After visiting the loo
  • Cheers,
    Em. ^^
