Thursday Post 362

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1520 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "Heaven's Relief In The Coming Wrath' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Bearing Spiritual Fruit (1)' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home from her half day's work!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7am, and after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep immediately coz Carina was coming to help me up @ 8am!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 362f

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2526. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I Facebooked and blogged. Just finished my most recent entry, actually; will start editing next.
• 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. 
• Carina's helping me up @ 8am. Thanks to PIG mum who said "Carindale ... Carina!" to help me remember her name! XD
• Will haveta read @ home for one hour before going out to buy groceries with Carina coz I think all the libraries are shut due to the current lockdown?
• Will buy takeaway lunch from Cha Kee! It's slightly more expensive than Woka, Ho Lin Wah and Sunnybank Oriental but it's the only place I'm sure's open for takeaway!
• Carina will see me home and showered before leaving around 3:30; I'm just more worried that PIG mum will gleefully force poor Ela to feed me fruit coz what if New York Baguette's not open??
• Also haven't decided will I watch the Thursday night footy yet; Storm are playing Panthers. Might just leave Nine's live stream on and listen to the match while blogging.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, I've managed SIX posts tonight! That's even rarer than five! XD

Wednesday Post 262e

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2417 (lol, will I reach 2500 before night's end?? XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Faith That Pleases' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Secret Of Contentment. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When I was summoned over for dinner I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Ooh, the parents decided we'd have hotpot tonight! Meaning I didn't havetas get myself a spoon and meaning June has been satisfied TWENTY-SIX times; my best month to date!!! :D :D :D
• Also thanks to PIG mum who microwaved me like just over one mouthful of rice, coz she remembers I need rice. I munched lotsa yummy cauliflower, like one strip of pork, one chunk of beef and one delicious lil dumpling. Ohh, and half a hardboiled egg.
• 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. 

• Righteo, hopefully 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 toms, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee I've already managed FIVE posts tonight~ Haven't done that for awhile~ XD

Wednesday Post 262d

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday mow stands @ 2124. See? Told you I'd crack two grand! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• The moment I'd enjoyed two hours online I got off the computer and headed over to the gobbling :P table, where PIG mum had said she'd leave the cream bun I'd bought with Kim on the table for me, along with a cup of tea. Only the table was EMPTY??
• Well I was pretty sure the buns were inside the fridge and skooted my armchair over to check. Tuup, there it was!
• After I'd skooted my armchair back to the gobbling :P table, PIG mum has a delayed reaction to my "Where's my arvo tea, mum? You said you'd put it on the table foe me!" call and comes downstairs to gimme one mug of plain green tea and one small mouthful of passionfruit.
• Happiness is reading the book club novel for exactly one hour, reaching pg. 275 @ 3:49pm. Dearest dad drags PIG mum out for walkies with him~
• One more loo trip for me before I return online~
• Waiting for choir rehearsal @ 5:30.
• Toms: still don't remember the name of who's coming to help me up. XD
• Will read @ home for one hour before going grocery shopping @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown since all public libraries are currently shut during this snap lockdown.
• Hopefully PIG mum'll lemme buy takeaway lunch from Cha Kee even though it's slightly more expensive coz I've not found any other restaurants that serve HK-style milk tea are open for takeaway!
• Hmm ... if New York Baguette isn't open, I'll prolly haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me fruit for arvo tea. *sigh*
• Roosters are playing the Storm toms night ... perhaps I'll watch that? Nah, think I'd rather blog. Will leave Nine Now playing, though.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 362c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1948. Lol, bet I'll have cracked two grand before the day's out! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• Yup, one hour later, dearest dad very considerately walks silently down the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again. After the second 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*
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore for awhile more, noisy PIG mum's a-THUMPING around being my wakeup call to use the pot :P once more. Soon, she's let herself into my room; shortly afterwards, Kim arrives to help me up. She knocks, opens the door, says "Good morning, Em ... Fifteen more minutes?" I wave Mum Pig @ her but instead of leaving, Kim cheekily adds, "Or one more minute?" But before I can turn Mum Pig around and Bear Bum her, Kim amends, "Fifteen more minutes" and lets herself back out. XD
• Only she comes back too early! I don't mind when she empties the pot :P but when she tugs my covers away and tosses a pair of trousers on me I grumble "Go away. Thirty more seconds." She persists, but I refuse to comply until she buggers off for thirty more seconds. XD
• Finally, I sit up. XD We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys her first official break. Usually, I sit over the loo for two tinkles before coming out for breakfast, but because Kim said to hurry up this morning I only sat for one tinkle before coming out.
• Less than fifteen minutes left, so super-briefly:
• Had avocado on toast (two slices) for breakfast.
• Did a stinky unspeakable.
• Went with Kim to Calamvale Central to buy sushi - only the place was closed! o_O Luckily Kim knew you could buy buns from the Surabing+ side of Hanaromart; we both bought a cream bun there.
• Tiff gave Ela a session of OT when I got home; the student joined via Zoom coz we're in lockdown atm!
• Got home and took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 18% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted PIUG mum cooked some tasteless yeung chun noodles for lunch.
• Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, munch my bun and read for one hour before joining choir rehearsal online.
• Toms: keep forgetting who's taking me shopping. Will read for one hour @ home first, because lockdown means the library's not open.
• Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy takeaway lunch from Cha Kee!
• Any Thursday night footba;; happening?
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else hope everyoone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature tried calling @ 12:10am but I persuaded my idiot bladder to return to sleep and not call again until the Sun had fully risen; she listened and didn't nudge me awake until 7:05am! After one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep again, since I knew dearest dad would leave for work @ like 8:15am!

Tuesday Post 361c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 5122 (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'God Sings' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Your Life's Passion". Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• After watching the news, I used the loo for one tinkle before walking 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. 
• Oh noes! Our changeover function for Toastmasters has been cancelled!! >< I immediately ring CODA and text Kim.
• Phew, David doesn't arrive to gimme physio either; @ 11am I use the loo for one more tinkle and Hannah drives us out to Underwood Park where I hike for forty minutes. Actually, I hike for 39:40, but Hannah says that's close enough. XD
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. AAlso thanks to Hannah who helped me rinse out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I came back outside and made myself a toasted tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch, which I also cut myself. PIG mum took her food and sat on the couch watching YouTube; Hannah and I both played on our smartphones. XD
• When Hannah left, I had to let horrid PIG mum IMMEDIATELY force me on five rounds of Clock Yourself before we went out to the Runcorn Plaza IGA and bought groceries for dinner.
• We also dropped into the Warrigal Square Woolies and panic bought. XD Well, I ordered PIG mum to buy BOTH bags of bread/cake flour.
• Back home, we both munched one slice of dad's chocolate bread for arvo tea.
• After one more loo trip, I return online and @ 6pm watch the news bulletin for the 67TH time.
• When the parents summoned me for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely 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 I had the foresight to skoot my chair over to get before breakfast for dinner tonight; June has been satisfied TWENTY-FIVE times!!! :D :D :D
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa not-very-yummy bean sprouts, one lil slice of Chinese mushroom and a lil chicken with taro.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink 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. 
• Righteo, 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 361b

 Good afternoon again! Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4848; hey, I might crack half a normal person before Tuesday's out! XD Righteo, continuing events for today?

• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore for about another hour, waking once more for the pot :P before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a--THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye before exiting to await Hannah's arrival.
• When Hannah arrives, she's good: she knocks, opens the door, calls out good morning and then says, "Fifteen more minutes?" Mum Pig nods @ her and she leaves~
• When Hannah comes back, I use the pot :P for another tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to brush teeth. Thanks to Hannah who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her first break this week~
• Teeth brushed, I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Breakfast was an avocado toastie unfortunately without any salt. Well, perhaps PIG mum sprinkled some, but I've got inferior tastebuds coz she shook very little. :P I also drank one full mug of water, popped all my usual drugs :P and drank another mug of 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*
• Breakfast finished, Hannah walks with me too the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and spend 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!
• After washing and drying Era, I pop online. Oh noes, our Toastmasters function has been cancelled!! >< I immediately ring CODA and tell them Kim doesn't need to come tonight.
• Thankfully, David doesn't come gimme physio either! At 11am, I use the loo for one more tinkle and Hannah drives me to Underwood Park, where I plod a forty-minute walk. Actually, I'm like twenty/forty seconds short but Hannah's like, close enough. Get back into the car.XD
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who rinses my hair out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• After getting dried, creamed and rekitted I make myself one tomato with tuna and onion toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch, while Hannah has some microwaveable meal. Since PIG mum's watching YouTube, I take the chance to play Farm Hereos on my mobile. XD
• When she leaves, PIG mum and I visit IGA and the Warrigal Square Woolies to panic buy!! XD
• Back home, we both munch one slice of dad's yummy chocolate bread.
• After usinthe loo for one more tinkle, I pop online.
• Toms: Kim's minding me 9-1.
• Won't see Ray for acupuncture coz he's taken his family holidaying to Movie World!
• Will have online choir practice from 5:30pm till 6:30pm~
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Nature didn't call until 7:05am, 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*

   

• Actually, I went straight back to sleep first! Started my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel when dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock leading into the hallway, my wakeup call to use the pot :P again.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 361b

 Heylo again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3648 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm still owed THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Priscilla leaves @ 6pm!! Righteo, continuing events for today?

• I happily snore for another hour, waking again to use the pot :P when dearest dad very considerately walks silently down the hallway and unpops the lock leading into the garage, before 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*
• 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 noisy 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 absolutely nothing bar the bra 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 absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle (usually I sit for two), coming out when PIG mum demanded I come out. That's coz I didn't do a number two yesterday and she was expecting me to do one for her today.
• After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Actually, first I boot the computer up and note that I've gotten myself a spoon for breakfast.
• After getting myself a spoon, breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast), all my usually 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.

 Good evening again and probably one final greeting for tonight! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 4872. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

• TTurns out my new carer was double-vooked and she chose to look after the other client! But I still needed someone to help me up! Luckily, someone from Staffingg Options was found but wouldn't arrive till midday.
• Dad got my footwear on, I brushed teeth, did a number two and then went out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Dad gave me half a slice of cheese but wouldn't cook the bread yummy.
• After breakfast, I read for like five minutes and then dad immediately fed me leftovers for lunch.
• Phew the Staffing Opttions lady arrived! Rani from Staffing Options will stay from midday till 2pm.
• So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Rani who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I return to my room and sit on the bed while Rani cleans the bathroom and then drops me off @ church for the table tennis elimination rounds!
• My first match was against Ray Tang's dad! I asked him please to lemme win one point; he won the first set 10-1. For the second set, I asked him please too lemme win another point but he lemme win five!
• Dunno who my second and third opponents were but I lost 10-5 and 10-7 respectively. I suppose I won the people's choice award; whenever I won a point, the entire audience erupted into cheers for me! XD
• Afterwards, dad tootles me home, I use the loo for one tinkle and then I vaguely remember dad fed me some arvo tea but not what. XD
• Usually we have our once weekly dinner on Sunday but I asked could we have it tonight instead coz toms night I'm watching Origin Two!
• Dinner was @ Garbo Eight Street. We shared some chicken rice, oily udon and sushi rolls.
• Back home, I tootled online but went to the dining room to help PIG mum measure ingredients for the chocolate cake she's making Dr. lee since it's his BIRTHDAY toms! XD
• One more tinkle for me before I return online.
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Janice will pick me up from church @ 8:50am and take me to the Lunfg residence before seeing me back to BCAC for ESS.
• Hope Mel remembers to find me after service ends; she's said she'll take me to Woka Underwood and we'll buy takeaway lunch to bring back to the state high for lunch together before the sports carnival!
• Most exciting of all: it's Origin Two toms night! GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS!!
• Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,

Saturday Post 361b

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 4666 (ha, I'm over 4.5 grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Language Of Love' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'He Hears Us'. Righteo, potential final, final events for Saturday?

• Once dearest dad has retucked me back into bed and promised to silent, letting me snore in peace, that's exactly what I do. Waking up once more to use the pot :P around 9:50am, I crawl back into bed, thinking, oh, the new carer will arrive soon.
• Instead, I fall back asleep! The next thing I know, dad's shaken me awake, holding my mobile out to me and saying ring CODA. Bobody has gone. I dial the on-call number but get the answering machine! I'm like argh yesterday you told me someone was coming; where's that someone??
• Luckily, Louise/someonew calls back quickly and gets onto it. In the end, turns out that the new carer was double 8:19 Bbl!
• Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Saturday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1857 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Death Trap Called Covetousness' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Handle Disagreements (1)' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FOURTEEN MINUTES online after I get back home from dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Last night, nature called @ 12:15am. I was about to swing myself over to use the commode when I saw silly PIG mum had forgotten to put the pot :P in for me!! o_O "Dad, I screeched. "PIG mum didn't gimme the pot:P; please come downstairs and gimme the pot :P coz I'm busting!!" But dad's a heavy sleeper and obviously didn't hear me! I waited thirty seconds and tried again. After another half minute of silence, apart from calling loudly Era also thumps the wall and I call, "If you can't wake, come downstairs and gimme the pot :P I'm gonna haveta put the AFO back on and hightail it over to the loo! DAD!!" Thankfully, third time lucky, dad finally awoke and heard me. Clattering downstairs, he hurries into my bathroom, grabs the pot :P and puts it into the pot :P for me, before giving me a kiss goodnight and returning upstairs. Whata a drama! XD
• Nature called again @ 6:20am, when noisy PIG mum began her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep coz I was beyond certain she'd get noisy again one hour later!
• Sure enough, exactly one hour later, noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs to get changed for her half day's work; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again. After this third 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*
• When PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo before leaving for her half day's work, I gripe @ her for forgetting to gimme the pot because she just rushed off to bed. Lol, not even a 'sorry, I forgot' from her; she just said, "That's why you've gotta step up! You can't trust me to be around for you!" Lol next time she tries pulling that I'll not let her leave until she shows me the pot :P she's gonna put into my commode. After she leaves, 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 361c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2954 and secondly, the final, final spam count for the week's now forty-four. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post I continued blogging.
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more 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. 
• \Lol, PIG mum hit me with the eye goo and went upstairs to hit the sack already @ only 9:10am. Ela looks forward to not having to hold/open anything tonight and Elf looks forward to wearing her sock to sleep. XD
• Toms: having my weekly sleep-in. Poor Hannah's been felled by the second COVID jab but CODA have found someone to help me up from Staffing Options called sth like Svetlana? Hope she's nice~
• Will this Svetlana take me out walkies will dad so that after she leaves? Actually, dad said sth about maybe having to play trials for table tennis toms before the official carnival Sunday; if that's the case I'll obviously be out and just be the cheer squad. XD
• Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea and fingers crossed for the chance to read for three hours toms!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheerse,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 361c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2954; secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Children Of God' and thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Heart That Won't Quit.' Anyways, just briefly continuing events for Friday?

• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leave for his hard day's work I'd originally intended to snore for another hour, but instead PIG mum comes downstairs and says get up, you're seeing Aunty Ann for a massage this morning!
• Brushed teeth, had breakfast, did a number two then saw Aunty Ann for a comfy massage.
• Came home and had a session of OT with Tiff and a student.
• Made pizza and had half for lunch with PIG mum!
• Kim minded me from 3pm till 5pm. When I showered 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.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I headed back outside and did Five rounds of that Track Yourself Program with Kim before having a banana for arvo tea and reading for fifty-five minutes, 
• When she leaves I return online before happily watching the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 65TH time!
• Dinner tonight: entree was one mouthful of Hungry Jack's Whopper Juniour, then I had rice with lots yummy cabbage, some sliced pork and one tiny chunk of BBQ duck.
• Dinner was washed down with one cup of water; after taking the cup 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, fingers crossed I can bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for the night, the final, final spam count for the week plus what's happening toms else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 361b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2804 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-SIX MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 65TH time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• Usually nature calls every hour after the initial pot :P trip but today I had an INCREDIBLE snore and didn't wake again for the pot :P until dearest dad very considerately walked silently down the hallway and unpopped the lock @ 8:05am!
• Oh, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Children Of God'.
• After dearest dad retucked me back into bed, kissed me bye and left for his hard day's work, I'd planned to snore for another hour, but how come PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs and then let herself into my room? I might've muttered sth like, "I'm not doing OT for you until the afternoon and it's not 9am yet; shoo!" but PIG mum laughed and said silly you forgot you're seeing Aunty Ann for a massage! 
• After she helps me very slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and tee, I give myself fifteen more minutes and get myself mostly independently kitted. PIG mum returns 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, coming out when PIG mum says sit over the loo after breakfast; come and eat first.
• After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Breakfast was one slice of the green tea cake PIG mum baked last night, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P  and another mug of coffee, to rid the last vestiges of the pesky headache I'd gotten Tuesday night. 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*

• When dad summoned me over for dinner, I lifted the loo lid (silly carer forgot to lift it back up for me after cleaning the bathroom ><), sat for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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, dad lemme use the spoon Carina kindly passed me back after breakfast for dinner; June has been satisfied TWENTY-TWO times!!! :D :D :D
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cabbage, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot , a lil pork mince and one tiny delicious chunk of BBQ duck. Over dinner, dad and I talked about Origin Two, tonight's news and I asked him had he pulled our rubbish bin to the kerb for bin tipping toms (he had).
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I walk 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.

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, finally plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2870 and secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Sharing Your Faith' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed SEVEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 64TH time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Breakfast's one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one smaller mug of 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 head back to the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and spend 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!
• Outta time, so super-briefly: had breakfast, did a stinky unspeakable and attended GCCW.
• Had lunch with Pastor Grace and REVEREND Chris!
• Got home, turned alarm off and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carina who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I tootled online.
• Arvo tea was one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit and one mug of coffee; please headache bugger off else I'll need Panadol toms. ><
• Returned online and watched the news.
• Toms: think David's coming to gimme physio, meaning PIG mum will definitely help me up.
• Also think I'm seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ her. XD
• Kim's minding me from 3pm till 5pm.
• Ooh maybe I can watch the 6pm news for the 65TH time!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Thursday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2618 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic's 'Faith Honors Him Who It Trusts' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Answering The Big Questions (4) but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-SIX MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home!! Anyways, events for today?

• I used the pot :P once last night @ 12:15/12:20am and again this morning around 7:45am, before spending 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 first morning pot :P trip, but today I snored all the way happily until noisy PIG mum began her usual a-THUMPING around upstairs before waking for the pot :P again!
• When the new carer arrived, PIG mum let her in, banged the door and gave me fifteen more minutes.
• When Carina came back, I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, we got me kitted and then I headed over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Carina who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her first official break~
• Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Toms: someone new called Karina's coming to help me up and take me to the Garbo library for GCCE! Hope she's nice~
• Looking forward to meeting Pastors Chris and Grace for lunch @ Rice Paper Vietnamese Cuisine @ 1pm.

• The moment I'd finished my most important two hours online, I got offline and headed to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum could I please eat my sushi roll? The book club novel was outta my reach so after I finished munching the yummy tempura vegie sushi I used the loo for one tinkle and returned online.
• Tonight, choir started one minute late and ended four minutes late. XD For some reason tonight was some kinda singalong? Mr. Mick put all the lyrics on the projector; I just sang along with the songs I knew and Facebooked when we sang songs I didn't know/when Cath was yapping. XD
• After choir ended, I used the loo for one tinkle and returned online.
• When dad got home from swimming, reheated dinner and summoned me, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely 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 over to get before lunch for dinner; June has been satisfied TWENTY-ONE times!!! :D :D :D

Wednesday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday's actually 4621 (nice, I'm over 4.5 grand XD); secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3264 steps; thirdly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'How We Must Fight For Holiness (3' and fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Answering The Big Questions (3)'. Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

• Yay, dearest dad arrived home the same time Kim arrived to take me to Toastmasters, meaning I got to hug and kiss him bye before Kim tootled me off to QUT Gardens Point~
• At QUT, Kim and I were heading to the meeting room when I saw Lino wearing a pair of shorts! "Lino, go put a pair of trousers on!" I screech @ him. "Just LOOKING @ you's making me colder!!" XD
• About sixteen people attended last night; I learnt that our president Sam only got an OP 16 since he'd been lazy and Elsa fed me a mandarin!
• Afterwards, Kim drove me back to the Warrigal Square Maccas and even had a Happy Meal with me for dinner; most excitingly, for Minions3, the Happy Meal Box was a yellow minion one and the toy a Minion figurine!! :D
• Back home, repeat the usual nightly events and zzz. Oh, PIG mum didn't bother seeing me to bed; she has hit me with the eye goo and headed upstairs herself. Suited me just fine: Elf happily wore her sock to sleep last night. XD
• Today: yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs; 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 I happily snore all the way until 8:15am, when dearest dad comes to kiss me bye and retuck me back into bed before he leaves for his hard day's work and I use the pot :P again.
• Amazingly, I manage to totally fall back asleep again before PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs again!
• She comes to hit me with the eye goo while I'm still over the pot :P; when Kim arrives ten minutes early, PIG mum lets her in. Kim knocks the closed door, opens it, let's herself inside and announces, "Emm. Good morning; fifteen more minutes." Mum Pig nods @ her and she lets herself back out.
• When Kim comes back, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Ela enjoys her second consecutive break; PIG mum hadn't been around last night to gleefully force her to hold the toothbrush either. XD
• tEETH BRUSHED, I SIT OVER THE LOO FOR JUST ONE TINKLE, COMING OUT WHEN I - shrieking, sorry! >< - realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast this morning was an avocado toastie with some salt - I like the ones Kim makes for me better than the one PIG mum makes me coz they've got thicker avocado and you can actually taste the salt! XDI also drank one mug of Milo, drank another full mug of water, popped all my usual drugs :P and 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 spend 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!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Kim's car and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central.
• First I walk for forty minutes, then we buy groceries from Woolies and then we just sit @ some table and poke @ our smartphones for about twenty minutes before Kim tootles me back home.
• After turning off the alarm, I take a nice hot shower - I wash and rinse 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'm all done after just 11%, but happily lean fully against the side rail and water myself for another tinkle before calling Kim back.
• After I flipped the nice hot water off, I mostly dried myself (thanks to Kim who kindly helped with my back, Era and both legs), mostly creamed myself (again, thanks to Kim who kindly helped me cream my back, both calves and Era) and mostly rekitted myself (thanks to Kim who kindly helps with my bra strap, Erf's sock, Elf's AFO straps and both laces). Then I use the loo for one tinkle, dry inside both ears, wash and dry Era and walk myself slowly and safely back out to the gobbling :P table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• For lunch, Kim makes me one tuna with tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese; I also drink one mug of green/Chinese tea.
• When Kim leaves @ 1pm, I boot the computer up. Fifteen minutes later, PIG mum tootles me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. During the session, she's in her element, yapping incessantly @ Ray; my grateful thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing.
• Back home, I finished my GCCW homework and tootled online.
• Once I've finished my most important two hours online, I'll go and eat my yummy sushi. Might reafd for thirty minutes, too.
• Toms: some new carer's taking me to the Garbo library for GCCW! Hope she's nice~
• Looking forward to meeting REVEREND Chris and Pastor Grace for lunch @ Rice Paper Vietnamese cuisine!
• The Storm are playing the Roosters toms night ... should I watch that?
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  

   

Tuesday Post 360b

 Heylo again, good afternoon again and probably one final greeting for today! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 3293. Righteo, probable final, final events for today?

• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed, I happily snore for awhile more, waking again when PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo, before exiting and awaiting Hannah's arrival.
• Aw, Hannah's good: she arrives promptly, knocks the closed door before opening it, bids me good morning and offers me fifteen more minutes! Cheeky Kim likes to add, "Or one more minute?" after the initial offer of fifteen minutes; she gets a Bear Bum for that! Not that Kim cares; she just smirks and goes away for fifteen more minutes. XD
• When Hannah comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Hannah who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her first break this week~Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for five minutes and do one tinkle before coming out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast was an avocado toastie with the merest sprinkling of salt, one full mug of water, all my usual deugs :P and another mug of 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 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 spend 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!
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Walked for thirty minutes with Hannah around Underwood Park! Took a photo @ the bridge; also another @ this big pink rock!
• Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one bowlful of tasteless rice leftovers. The parents are mean for not letting Hannah reheat my rice in the frying pan with oyster sauce; no, she can only microwave the food. *sigh*
• Lunch was washed down with one llittlle mug of green tea - originally PIG mum had put out the massive mug but I told Hannah that one's only for white tea with two sugars.
• I returned online and Hannah left @ 2pm.
• Sheesh, PIG mum's already hounded me TWICE coz she wants to gleefully force me to do my HEP for her; I'm refusing until the most important two hours  of the day are up!
• Ooh fingers crossed I can read for one hour before Kim takes me to Toastmasters @ 5:30; can't remember if I'm doing timekeeper/warm-up master this time.
• Looking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate surely MORE THAN TWO DECADES ago! *sigh* Pity also Kim never lets me get a milkshake with it... >< XD
• Toms: perhaps it's Kim coming back to mind me from 9-1?
• Think I'm seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture toms arvo; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
• May haveta let PIG mum gleefully force Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea, but fingers crossed I can read for one hour!
• Choir rehearsal's from 5:30pm till 6:30pm; Cath's already sent the music for toms.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 360

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3033 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Satisfaction That Defeats Sin' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Answering The Big Questions (2) but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after Hannah leaves @ 2pm!! Anyways, events for today?

• I use the pot :P once last night @ 12:25am; nature calls again when PIG mum randomly goes a-THUMPING around @ 7:05am, and after another pot :P I immediately fall asleep coz I know dad will leave for work @ 8:15am~
• One hour later dearest dad very considerately walks silently down the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again, after which 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 360f

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4112. Ha, I'm just over four grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I also edited and published my Livejournal post! Hmm ... will need to think of another topic to post about next~
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more 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: Hannah'll help me up @ 9am. PIG mumm says she's sending us walking @ like Underwood Park. Must check the weather forecast.Hannah will see me showered and fed with lunch before leaving @ 1pm.
• Seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage afterwards; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
• After getting home, hopefully PIG mum'll lemme spend my most important two hours of the day online, feed me some arvo tea and lemme read in peace until Kim comes @ 5:30pm and takes me to Toastmasters.
• Looking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate surely MORE THAN TWO DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Monday Post 360e

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3966; hopefully I'll have passed four grand before the night's out! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• When dinner was reheated and I was summoned, I used the loo for one tinkle before walking myself and safely 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 Priscilla kindly passed me during arvo tea after the parents left for walkies for dinner tonight, June has been satisfied NINETEEN times!! :D :D
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa gul gei, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup onion and three tiny chunks of chicken which I saved for last, of course.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink, I walk 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. 
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for Monday, the final, finally events for tonight and what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for Monday! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3870; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Real Thing' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'We Will Fight For You'. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Breakfast was one avocado toastie with a tiny sprinkle of salt, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and another mug of 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.

• PIG mum's still getting ready upstairs when I'm done; I return to my room until she's ready to leave.

• At Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown, we buy groceries from Asian Village and Woolies. We also bump into Caittlin!

• Back home, I tootle online until PIG mum summons me to make myself a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch, which I cut into two triangles.

• Lunch gets washed down with one mug of tea, and then I tootle online until Priscilla arrives. Thanks to PIG mum who let her in, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself.

• So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Priscilla who helps me rinse my hair out - thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• I have one tinkle before Priscilla flips the nice hot water off, get dried, get creamed and have another tinkle. When Priscilla rekits me, I have one more tinkle when she's doing Elf's AFO straps and one last when she's giving Wally back to Ela.

• Back outside, arvo tea's one gloopy mouthful of yummy passionfruit, another tiny slice of the yummy cake PIG mum recently baked and one mug of green tea. Happiness was reading for one hour; today I reached pg. 175 @ 4:42pm and reached pg. 200 @ 5:32pm. After reading for one hour, I played Farm Hereos. XD

• At 5:55pm, I used the loo once more for two tinkles. PIG mum signed Priscillla off and sent her packing but luckily I made it back safely online myself.

Brisbane was 11-23 today. Mt. Gravatt toms: 9-21. Sunrise 6:37am sunset 5:03pm.

  Toms: think Hannah's minding me from 9am till 1pm ... hopefully PIG mum hasn't rung CODA and sent her packing!

• Think I'm seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage? Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD

• wILL PROLLY HAVETA LET pig MUM GFLEEFULLY FORCE POOR eLA TO FEED ME SOME FRUIT FOR ARVO TEA. *SIGH*

Monday Post 360c

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3298 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-ONE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 63RD time!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• 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 just one tinkle, coming out to the gobbling :P table when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 360b

 Heylo again and please excuse the first oist; 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 615 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Grace Is Pardon - And Power!' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Answering The Big Questions (1)' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTEEN MINUTES online after lunch!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:05am, 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*
• I happily snore for another hour, waking once more for the pot :P when dearest dad comes to kiss me bye and retuck me back into bed before leaving for his hard day's work.
• Another hour of happing snoring for me, nature calling once more shortly before 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 nothing bar the bra strap and the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
