Friday Post 384

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2152 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD) ; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Most Liberating Discovery'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Thoughts On Giving (1)' and fourthly, the spam count for the week's 104 (lol, first time this year it's past 100! XD) Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once last night @ 12:15am; I also used the pot :P around 6:20am when dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock 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*

   

• Nature usually calls every hour following that first suny morning pot :P trip, but happiness was sleeping soundly all the way until dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking for another pot :P trip. Apologies, the first time he only pulled the sliding door to the bathroom shut and awoke me.

• After dearest dad's kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, I happily snore again, this time waking for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Vicki's arrival.

• Vicki actually arrives five minutes early, but she's a good girl and gives me my whole fifteen more minutes before coming back and helping me get kitted for the day.

• Next I had over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Vicki who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys two consecutive morning breaks~

• Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.

• Breakfast's the yummy chocolate custard bun bought yesterday, 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 washing and drying Era, I climb into Vicki's Toyota Camry and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central for walkies and tissue box buying. Only can you believe it: the tissues had run out! Instead, we happily sat and tapped @ our smartphones for thirty minutes, I passed another level of Farm Heroes

• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:

• Came home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Vicki who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted for lunch I made myself a ham and cheese toastie (one slice each) that I cut into two triangles.

• Ela did a session of OT with Tiff.

• Let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me on five rounds of Clock Yourself before she lemme plop online.

• Hoping to read for one hour after my most important two hours of the day are up; hopefully PIG mum'llk feed me some arvo tea but I may haveta let her gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit. *sigh*

• Ooh maybe I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 107TH time!

• Even better, fingers crossed dad will take PIG mum and I out for dinner tonight because Sunday night I'm gonna watch the NRL grand final!

• Toms: will get my weekly sleep-in till 10am when Neisha minds me till 2pm. Hopefully she'll take me out for walkies somewhere else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.

• Haven't heard from dad is there any table tennis being played @ church toms arvo?

• But looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea with two sugars and fingers crossed I'll get to read for three hours toms!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 384d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4058. Ha, I'm just over four grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I just Facebooked. Don't worry, I kept my ears listening; had I heard PIG mum get off the couch I'd have immediately switched back to blogging. XD
• 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. 
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Neisha's minding me 9am till 1pm. Originally PIG mum was gonna send me to Underwood Park for walkies but what with the rain that bucketed down tonight Underwood Road may be flooded ...
• Am slightly cranky with dad for not getting back to me about when I could catchup with Annie; tomorrow's the last day she said she was free! But PIG mum's already said NO to that coz she's got Tiff the OT coming over for sth ... *sigh* Have asked her will she be free Sunday instead, arvo not evening coz Sunday night's the NRLK grand final, provided the Premier doesn't put Brisbane under more lockdown should more COVID cases appear! ><
• But tomorrow's the first day of the final quarter of 2021! Hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• After watching the news, I continued editing my current personal blog post. It's nearly ready for publication!
• When dad summoned me over for dinner around 8:15pm, 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. 
• Score, September has been satisfied TWENTY times!!! :D :D :D What a perfect way to end the month~
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa letrtuce, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot and s few thin strips of chicken.
• Dinner was spoooned down with one bowlful 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 final loo 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 smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 384b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for Thursday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3646. Ha, I'm over 3.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Thursday?

• When Carina arrived, she gave me my fifteen more minutes before I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, we got me kitted and I went over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. Thanks to Carina who squirted some toothpaste for me; Ela enjoyed her first official breal although technically she got a break last night too since I obediently got myself off to bed @ 9:45pm but PIG mum was busy upstairs doing sth. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is half a bowl of gluggy plain porridge with one slice of toast smeared with avocado and sprinkled with salt (meaning Karina did it, not PIG mum since I could actually taste some salt XD), 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 breakfast, I sit over the loo once more. 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 Carina's car and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown! Finding parking outside level two, I use the loo for one tinkle and then grab Lian Hearn's Orphan Warriors and happily read for about one hour, finishing page twenty-five @ 10:08am, reaching page thirty-three @ 10:19pm and reaching page fifty @ 10:48pm.
• After posting an update onto Facebook, I use the loo for one more tinkle and then we grab a trolley to start buying groceries @ Woolies. Caitlin's not manning the self-serve checkouts; I ask the checkout chic who is has she gone on lunch break? No, she's so sick she's taken the entire WEEK off! o_O
• Our last stop before lunch was Coles for more groceries. 
• Today we met Pastor Grace and Reverend Chris for lunch @ Yum Cha And Co! Why I was disappointed: the coffee milk tea wasn't HK-style and the fried chicken rice was crispy skin chicken, not Korean style fried chicken! But catching up with them's always nice~
• After getting home, I turn off the alarm and then take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also 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 hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Karina 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, I plopped online while Carina cleaned the bathroom then sat and gently massaged Ela  until 4pm, when I signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back again next Thursday and taking me shopping again~
• For arvo tea I let PIG mum nab half my sausage bun for arvo tea and she gave me one mug of some infusion. Then I smuggled my mobile into the toilet and played Candy-Crush-type games for the full five tinkles before returning online.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 106TH time!
• Even better, it's ice cream night tonight; like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Neisha's helping me up @ 9am; PIG mum's sending us walking @ some shopping centre.
• She'll see me showered and fed with lunch before leaving @ 1pm; PIG mum's found Tiff the OT to come gimme a session in the arvo. Looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online and fingers crossed I'll get to read for one hour but may haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea. *sigh*
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2218 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Make War With Unbelief' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Think More About Others (3) but fourthly and way most importantly I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home and I let her nab @ least half my arvo tea!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently down the hallway and pulled closed the bathroom door; 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*

   

• After that initial pot :P trip, Uber and I happily snored until dearest dad again very considerately walked down the hallway and unpopped the lock for Karina's imminent arrival.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 384

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding exactly 3000 steps (nice number! XD); secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic from last night's 'Our Good Is His Glory' thirdly, Em's final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 4662 (ha, i'm over 4.5 grand XD) and fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Think More About Others (2)'. Righteo, let's start off with last night's events first?

• Neisha actually arrived eight minutes late to drive me to Toastmasters! When I told her had she been another two more minutes late I'd have rung the CODA on-call number looking for her she laughed and replied she'd been late coz she had to wait for not one, not two but THREE trains to pass @ the level crossing! She says next time she's rostered down to take me to Toastmasters, she'll come earlier.
• Yay, we got the free parking this time~ Only problem was only six attended the meeting, two were guests and there weren't any prepared speeches! Instead, Jasmine and I both gave impromptu speeches for four minutes on some topic Neil gave and then everyone did Table Topics. The reason why our president Ela didn't attend: she's just given birth!
• Afterwards, Neisha took me back to Maccas; we both had Happy Meals. Originally, she'd wanted a vanilla milkshake but since I was only allowed an orange juice, she showed solidarity with me and got a Coke instead. XD
• Back home, repeat the usual nightly events, zzz~
• Today: yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am; 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*

•  Happiness is then snoring soundly until dearest dad very considerately walks silently only the hallway and unpopping the lock into the garage before waking again for the pot:P; after he's kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, I happily snore again before this time being awoken by PIG mum's noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. One more pot :P trip for me, then, before she comes to hit me with the eye goo and then exit to await Juliete's arrival.

• After my fifteen more minutes, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. A break for Ela, yay~

• Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.

• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast smeared with avocado and the tiniest ever sprinkling of plain 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*

• Breakfast finished, I sit over the loo again. 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 Juliete's passenger seat and Juliete tootles me off to Calamvale Central.

• Our first stop's Go Cutt. I don't recognise the Taiwanese haidresser but she remembers me; she even asks after PIG mum!

• Our next stop's the bakery for my BBQ pork salad roll without lunch. Luckily, there aren't any other customers present today, I gratefully lean against the glass cabinet.

• Our last stop before going home's Woolies for a box of tissues.

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

• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch's the delicious BBQ pork salad roll and one mug of Chinese tea.

• PIG mum takes me to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture in the arvo. She's in her element, yapping unceasingly @ him in not only English but Mandarin and Cantonese also; my grateful thaanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing.

• Used the loo for one more tinkle, came home and returned online.

• Once I've used up my most important two hours hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea coz from 5:30pm till 6:30pm I've got choir rehearsal!

• Toms: Carina's helping me up @ 8am and taking me to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my fortnightly shopping trip!

• Looking forward to meeting Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace for lunch @ Yum Cha And Co; Pastor Grace says you can get HK-style coffee milk tea from there!

• Carina's minding me until 3pm.

• Suppose I'll get some time for blogging toms night since the only rugby match left's the grand final!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 383d

 Good afternoon again and probably one final greeting for today! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3989 (meaning I'm certain I'll have cracked four grand before Tuesday's out XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed THREE MINUTES online when I get back home from Toastmasters tonight!! Righteo, just briefly, probable final, final events for Tuesday?

• I pop online until Daniel arrives to gimme physio: ten minutes treadmill walking 0.8km/hr, fifty reaches for Era, fifty reaches for Ela, fifty steps for Erf, one minute standing practice and twenty laps walking with browsing around. This most exciting news: his girlfriend's expecting and the baby's due Next March!
• Took a nice hot shower afterwards - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I made myself a toastie for lunch and drank one mug of Chinese/green tea.
• Saw Aunty Ann for a comfy massage; I enjoyed her firm ministrations; PIG mum enjoyed yapping ceaselessly @ her. XD Today she was excited enough to repeat words four, five and six times before moving on; my gracious thanks to Aunty Ann who always replied and kept a conversation flowing.
• Neisha's taking me to Toastmasters tonight! Looking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate MORE THAN two DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Juliette's helping me up @ 9am toms; PIG mum's sending us to Go Cutt and I'm getting my cheap haircut. Did ask PIG mum please could I buy a pork salad roll for lunch but she won't discuss that yet?
• Seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture toms arvo; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
• Then I've got online choir practice from 5:30 till 6:30pm~
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 393c

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 1979 (meaning I'm certain I'll have cracked two grand before Tuesday's out XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-FIVE MINUTES online when I get home after seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage!! Righteo, continuing events for today?

• Usually nature calls every hour after that first after-Sun-has-risen pot :P trip, but today happiness was snoring so soundly I didn't wake again to relieve myself until dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopping the lock into the garage before awaking again to relieve myself.
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I fall back asleep again before this time being awoken vy noisy PIG mum's loud a-THUMPING around before she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and then back outside to await Hannah's imminent arrival. As expected, she didn't care in the slightest that nature ended my awesome sleep streak. *sigh*
• When Hannah arrives and PIG mum lets her in, she knocks, opens the door, says, "Morning; fifteen more minutes" and exits; Uber counts down the nine hundred seconds with me before I turn into face the wall and feign sleep when Hannah comes back. XD
• We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth; Ela enjoys another break~ Teeth brushed, I sit briefly over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• After skooting my chair over to get myself a spoon, breakfast was one of the sausage buns PIG mum baked last night, one bowl of plain porridge, 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 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 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.

Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, my awesome sleep streak ended @ 1:50am last night when nature called; I also used the pot :P again around 6:30am 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 publishing the previous post, I alternated between composing my newest blog post and Facebooking.

• Toms: Hannah's helping me up @ 9:15am and minding me till 1pm. Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme go for walkies @ Calamvale Central and buy a pork salad roll for lunch!
• Seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage in the arvo; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
• Planning to spend mmy most important two hours of the day online; wonder if there's any time for reading and munching some arvo tea before Neisha takes me to Toastmasters?

• When the parents summoned me over 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. 
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, lotsa lettuce and a few small chunks of delicious chicken.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful 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 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 hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday ahead!

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4493. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Precisely two hours after I'd begun my most important two hours of the day online, I got offline and headed over to the gobbling :PO table to munch arvo tea and read for one hour.
• The vegie tempura inari was delicious! Phew that I avoided the blob of sweet chilli sauce that came with it~ Of course, that 'twas too sweet for PIG mum. XD
• I also happily read for one hour, reaching pg. fifty @ 5:16pm and reaching page seventy-five @ 5:44pm.
• Before returning online, I used the loo for one more tinkle.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 393b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4318. Ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• One hour later, I'm awakened again by PIG mum this time noisily a-THUMPING 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*

•  Then I happily snore, not waking again for the pot :P until dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage.
• Whoops less than forty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Hannah minded me from 9am till 1pm. I got myself a spoon for breakfast and did a stinky unspeakable before Hannah started the drive for Underwood Park.
• Only just after the Logan Road intersection, it started spitting! Huh, the five percent chance of rain found me. >< XD
• Instead, we went to Underwood MarketPlace and I hiked thirty minutes there and bought groceries from Woolies before we sat and played with our mobiles for awhile! Bumped into Yeshi; she rushed over for a hug but I gently fended her away and said it's elbow bumps now! XD
• Got home and took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I made myself a cheese and ham toastie for lunch and cut it into two triangles; PIG mum poured me one mug of Chinese tea.
• After Hannah left, I stayed online briefly before PIG mum drove to Bupa Optical and I collected my new specs! Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt both ways, we also listened to 97.3FM and today Era helped Ela stretch for twenty minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm 100/150 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also helped rub Ela's fingers for about four minutes.
• After getting my new specs, we walked to ALDI to buy milk and the sushi shop @ the outside food court before PIG mum tootled me home.
• I used the loo for one more tinkle and returned online.
• Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online I'll eat my yummy inari for arvo tea and hopefully read for one hour before returning online and watching the 6pm bulletin for the 106TH time!
• Toms: Hannah's back again, 9:15am till 1pm. Suppose PIG mum will try send us to the park again.
• Hannah will see me home, showered and fed with lunch; @ like 2:30pm I'm seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage. I'm looking forward to her firm ministrations; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her.
• Coming home and spending my most important two hours online and hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea and then Neisha's coming @ 5:30pm and taking me to Toastmasters! Looking forward to bringing some dinner back from Maccas, never mind that Happy Meals were what I had @ LEAST TWO DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Poist 393

Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1850 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Live Confident In God's Sovereign Power" and thirdly, TWFT topic's "Recognise When It's Wise To Compromise" but fourthly and way moost importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FOUR MINUTES online when I get home this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the previous two mornings, nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P trip I was gonna spend ten minutes beginning the first part of my daily chat to Percy the angel/saint but instead I fell straight back asleep. XD
  Cheers,
• Em. ^^

Sunday Post 393c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3610 (ha, told you I'd crack 3.5 grand! XD) and secondly, the final, final spam count the weekend's now twenty-seven. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I composed my homework for the next GCCW meeting and then started composing my new personal blog post.
• 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's minding me 9am till 1pm. PIG mum'll prolly send us hiking in the park, even though I'd rather a thirty minute hike coz I wanna buy a yummy pork salad roll for lunch!
• Don't think I've got anymore appointments toms arvo ... unless PIG mum successfully chases Bupa Optical and I can get my new specs?
• Ooh, maybe I'll get to watch the 6pm bulletin for the 106TH time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 393b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3486 (so bet I'll have cracked 3.5 grand before the night's out XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "God's Friends" and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Rest Well'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Precisely two hours after I started online I got off the computer and headed ober to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum could she please feed me some arvo tea?
• She could: I had to let her gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit, but I didn't really mind coz I was seated and could fully concentrate.
• Did another stinky unspeakable and then I took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud. Actually, I was all done after 10% but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice hot 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 Elf's AFO straps needed doing and both laces needed tying.
• After drying the toilet seat, sitting for one tinkle, stamping both feet dry, drying inside both ears and washing and drying both hands, I return online briefly while PIG mum microwaves dinner and summons me.
• Score, she lets me use the spoon I didn't use last night for dinner coz dad took us out for dinner; September has been satisfied SIXTEEN times!! :D :D PIG mum also popped me two Neurofen.
• Dinner was washed down with one mug of tea; 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 bbl after one final loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight, the final, final spam count for the weekend plus what's happening Monday, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 393

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2981 steps (hence why I'm positive I'll have cracked three grand before Wednesday's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Life Hangs On The Word Of God' ; thirdly, TWFT topic's "How To Protect Yourself When You're Alone" and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's already twenty-four. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:20am when PIG mum began her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew with certainity that she'd be getting noisy again one hour later!
• Sure enough, exactly one hour later noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for church; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P once again, 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*

• \Shortly afterwards, 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 only one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of plain  toast containing the tiniest ever smear of butter and strawberry jam, all my usual drufs :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 breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely to the toilet, 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 sit outside my bedroom and await Fi's arrival. When she arrives, I climb into the passenger seat of her car, greet C1 and C2, and get an adorable chorus of 'Hi, Aunty Em!' in return~
• Fi tootles us off to Underwood Park and manages to carry my pic nic chair, hold my hand and instruct C1 and C2 to hold hands and walk together all @ once! 
• Originally she gave me this pear and caramel croissant but it came with a streak of peanut butter! o_O I reported that to Fi, who immediately whipped it away and gave me another one, custard.
• Afterwards, Fi tootled us back to church. PIG mum met me, but was mean refused to lift the toilet lid up for me, meaning I had to do that myself before sitting for a tinkle. *sigh*
• For worship today, I sang everything plus the harmony for four songs but like every other day, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Reverend Chris; he started a new sermon series entitled Glorious Purpose.
• After service, Pastor Grace suggested how about a kebab for lunch? Sure, score!
• Miss Lam walked with me down to the eating area behind church and grabbed a chair for me while she and Reverend Chris setup tables.
• Awesome, Pastor Grace not only came back with a kebab and a 250mL poppa of orange juice for me, she also got me one lil packet of chps that were doused with chicken salt! :D Only the kebab got too soggy and melted through; Pastor Grace got me a plate and fork to finish the kebab with. XD
• Since I'm such a slow eater, everybody already packed everything away and left but Miss Lam said nah take your time there's no rush.
• When I'd finally finished we walked back to her car and she dropped me back home. I used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.
• PIG mum's already decreed arvo tea's @ 5pm and then I'm taking a shower.
• Toms: perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me? Think she's found David to come gimme physio but don't think I've got any appointments to attend and will just be having lunch @ home with dearest dad.
• Also can't remember who's coming to mind mw toms arvo but hopefully I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 106TH time afterwards!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 393b

 Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3283; secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Knows We Feel' and thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's 'God Gets Emotional' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really stillk owed FORTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I let PIG mum gleefully boott me offline @ 9:45pm; argh, what a terrible end to an otherwise great day. >< *sigh* Righteo, just briefly, final, final events for tonight?

• Neisha came @ 10am to help me up. I brushed teeth, did a stinky unspeakable, had breakfast, read for thirty minutes, visited the loo once more and then Neisha tootled us off to Underwood MarketPlace and we bought sushi!
• Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Neisha who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, Neisha reheated the leftovers dad had prepared for me while I'd slept this morning; she also made me two more big mugs of white tea with two sugars coz Saturday's now my white tea day~
• At 1:45pm Fi/Joey came to pick me up for the IJMXxBCAC high tea!
• Only location was moved to BCAC? Doesn't matter; food was great and I met Pole's cousin, who's half Costa Rican!
• Came home and watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 105TH time!
• Then watched RiverFire from the computer; fireworks banged for like thirteen minutes!
• Went out for a lil dinner with dad @ Vietnam Oriental coz he's already got plans toms night and horrid PIG mum's already refused to take me out for dinner. *sigh*
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Oh, the special thing's that Fi's driving me to like Underwood Park and eating a pastry! just one, apparently, hence why she says to eat breakfast first.
• Isn't toms after ESS our once monthly community lunch? Fingers crossed I can join!
• Then it's a stressful arvo for me @ the hands of PIG mum with not even dinner out toms night to look forwards to. *sigh*
• Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good afternoon!

Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 8th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until PIG mum woke me with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 6:20am; after one pot :P trip, I immediately fell back asleep since I knew with certainty she'd get noisy again one hour later!
• Sure enough, exactly one hour later noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for work; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again, 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.

Friday Post 393c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4345 (ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Suffering According To God's Will"; thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Whatevers' and fourthly, the final, final spam count for the week's now eighty-three. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• When dad summoned me over 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 dad lemme use the spoon I had the foresight to skoot my chair over to get before the weather report before dinner; September has been satisfied FOURTEEN times!! :D :D
• Dinner tonight: PIG mum's delicious risotto with lotsa yummy cauliflower, one lil chunk of chicken and one lil chunk of tasteless soup pork.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I was ready to return online but dad ordered I watch the first half of the Sea Eagles vs. the Bunnies. *sigh* But I put down the footrest @ thirty-five minutes; the moment the halftime siren sounded I left, used the loo for one more tinkle and returned online.
• Toms: Neisha's minding me from 10am till 1:45pm and not 2pm, because Joey's coming @ 1:45pm and driving me to attend that fancy high tea!
• That ends @ 4pm; presuming Joey'll take me home after that and I'll spend the rest of the arvo online.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3715 and secondly, the potential final, final spam count for the week's now eighty. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Precisely two hours after I'd started my most important two hours of the day online, I got offline and headed over to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum could she please feed me some arvo tea?
• She could: I had to let her gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some sliced strawberries. I didn't really mind coz I was seated and could fully concentrate; besides, I finished before dearest dad got home from work, meaning PIG mum didn't get to show off to him how much power she's got over me, ha.
• After munching half a snow skin mooncake with PIG mum and drinking one mug of Chinese tea, I happily read Perky's Wallaby Stew for one hour, finishing with my own story!
• Before returning online, I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one tinkle and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!

Friday Post 393

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3517 steps (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Look For The Worst Of Sinners'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Speculation Or Revelation?' and fourthly, the spam count for the week's seventy-six but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-ONE MINUTES online after Tiff leaves!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night! That's the 17TH time this year I've enjoyed one straight week of awesome sleeps! :D Like the last two nights, nature didn't call until 6:35am 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Actually, silly PIG mum clean forgot Tiff couldn't come today! XD Just continuing today's events, then:
• Happiness was snoring until dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock leading into the garage; after I used the pot :P once more, dad came into my room to kiss me bye and retuck me back into bed before leaving for work. The moment the garage door goes down, before he's even left, PIG mum starts her daily a-THUMPING upstairs. Soon, she's let herself downstairs to hit me with the eye goo and help me with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and tee 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 only one tinkle, coming out when I realised I felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. Breakfast was the yummy little becon and cheese bun I'd bought for arvo tea yesterday but instead had to let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit. 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*The new carer arrivedand PIG mum let her in; her name's Vicki~

•  Breakfast finished, 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!

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Vicki's backseat and she tootles me off for my last NAB physio session for the year!! Over the drive, we each introduce each other: she lives with her boyfriend, has a step-daughter but can't have kids. Obviously I didn't pry into why! Scary thing: she's also been the recipient of domestic violence before, hence why her parents bought her this new car to drive ...

• Since we arrived several minutes late, Josh was already waiting for me outside reception with a manual wheelchair; straight to the Great Court he took me; Emily the teacher met us there~

• For my final NAB session for the year, I took another hike around the Great Court~ Emily even found a fountain that I stood in front of and she took photos for me from!

• Before leaving I went back to the NAB and gave out the three chocolate bars I'd brought along this morning. I also bagged Denis out for leaving Emily to take me for the Great Court hike so he'd not have to shout me an iced chocolate. XD Denis says the CE's will have me back Dec/next January so they can assess Elf re. more Botox.

• Vicki drove me home and I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Vicki who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted I make myself a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch, also cutting it into two triangles. Eating lunch is timed so that Vicki can wash up the lunch dishes for me before leaving. She's back same time next Friday; since NAB physio has finished, wonder where PIG mum will send us?

• After I've used up my most important two hours online, think I'll try asking PIG mum for some arvo tea and then read for one hour.

• Ooh, wonder if I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 104TH time!

• 7:30pm tonight: planning to watch the Bunnies take on the Sea Eagles! I don't mind who wins: Cherry-Evans plays for Manly but I've always cheered for the Rabbitohs since I was born in the CNY of the Rabbit!

• Toms: think Neisha's minding me from 10am till 2pm? Actually, just 1:30pm coz Joey's gonna pick me up and drive me to that fancy high tea! Will shower earlier; does that mean I'll not get time to go shopping with Neisha? Provided she's all recovered from her food poisoning, that is. Perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me?

• Toms night's the other prelim. final but I suppose I'll miss it since it starts @ 4pm! Well, I care nothing for neither the Panthers nor the Storm. XD

• Anyways, hopefully bbl after munching arvo tea, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 393d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3481. Lol, I'm sure I'll reach 3.5 grand some other night. Just not TOnight. XD Righteo, final, final events for Thursday?

• After publishing the previous post, I also finished and published my personal blog post!
• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more 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: PIG mum'll help me up toms, coz some new carer called Vicky's coming 9am till 1pm! Hope she's nice; she's taking me to the NAB and seeing me home and showered before leaving @ 1pm.
• Then PIG mum's found Tiff to come gimme an OT session ... sheesh, can't she understand that one therapy session per day's enough to exhaust me already?? *sigh*
• Will prolly haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea. *sigh*
• Ooh perhaps toms night I'll watch the Sea Eagles vs. the Bunnies! 
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 393c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3359; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Searching For Sinners' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Frolicking In Freedom'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• After getting home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Ete who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye firmly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I headed back out to the gobbling :P table, calling upstairs to PIG mum asking could she please feed me some arvo tea? She answered after Ete left, so I popped online instead.
• After signing Ete off with my thanks and byes, for arvo tea I had to let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea. I didn't really mind, coz I was seated, could fully concentrate and finished before dearest dad got home from work, meaning PIG mum didn't get to show off to him how much power she has over me, ha. XD
• After using the loo for one more tinkle, I returned online, watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) and then blogged before being summoned to dinner. Before joining the parents @ the gobbling :P table, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Sweet, the parents lemme use the spoon Ete washed and gave me back this morning after breakfast; September has been satisfied THIRTEEN times!! :D :D
• Dinner tonight: risotto rice, lotsa cos cos lettuce, a lil salmon and a few tiny slices (smaller than my pinkie fingernail) of bacon. Over dinner I excitedly told dad that QLD would get a new NRL team come 2023!
• 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. 
• Gonna finish my personal monthly blog post now! Fingers crossed I can 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 Friday, else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 392b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for today! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3197 (ha, I'm over three grand XD) but secondly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed SIX MINUTES online after watching the 6pm bulletin (Nine's) for the 103RD time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• When Ete 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. Horrid PIG mum immediately hurries Ete away before I can ask her to squirt me some toothpaste but no biggie; because she was hurrying away Era got to squirt the toothpaste before she could come back and gleefully force poor Ela to hold the toothpaste. XD 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 plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast smeared with avocado and perhaps some 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 breakfast, I sit over the toilet once more. 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 Ete's passenger seat and Ete tootles me off to the Garbo library for GCCW! 
• Only eight people attended today and our next homework topic (three weeks until the next meeting) is 'The Visitor'. Crystal helped me once to the toilet for morning tea, the disabled one was occupied but luckily the ambulant one wasn't and also thanks to Crystal who lifted the loo lid for me.
• After GCCW ended, everybody else left but Lisa kept me company waiting for Ete's arrival. When Ete arrived, I used the loo for one more tinkle and ate my chicken wrap from Maccas in the car while Ete tootled me off to the NAB.
• For my 2nd last session @ the NAB this year: one six minute walk test, two 10m walk tests and eighty single leg pushups for Elf on Tower Of Power. Poor Elf says ow. >< Tomorrow's my last session @ the NAB for 2021! Denis says I'm hiking around the NAB and I ask him any chance he'll FINALLY shout me an iced chocolate?? XD He says he'll 'think about it'; before leaving, I reminded Josh to please nag him about thinking very favourbly about it! XD 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. I finished pg. 250 @ 6:37pm!m.
• P.P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 103RD time read by Sharyn Ghidella and Max Futcher: Yvette (first name), Palaszczuk, Crisafulli, Whop (heard), Ribarich, Cherry, Heathwood, Ikanhoff (heard), Reason, Goan, Eaton (heard), Dalley, Kingsun, Kuldeep (first name), Pelosi, Psaki, Macron, Prickett, Millroy, Last, Gyte, Mullen, Whitfeld, Curr, RobatiVoss (heard), Sayers, Gillon (first name), Hodge, Rennie, Fortunato (first name), Foti,  HaynesStoinis (heard), Khawaja, I(ffland, Chumbley, Madden, Katz  and Hasler. Pat Welsh read the sports report and Gemma Acton read the finance report; 1AUD = 72,5USc. Tony Auden read the weather report. Brisbane was 10-26. Mt. Gravatt toms: 10-28.  sunrise 5:35am sunset 6:46pm.

Thursday Post 392

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2828 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Let Goods And Kindred Go" and thirdly, TWFT topic's "God's Answer To Worry" but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES online after Ete leaves @ 4pm!! Anyways, evewnts for today?

• Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didsn't call until 6:35am 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*
• Happiness is then snoring happily until dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage before waking for another pot :P trip. After he's gone, PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside to await Ete's arrival; when Ete arrives she gives me fifteen more minutes but when Ete comes back like four minutes and ten seconds too early, Uber sends her away with complete outrage. XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5296 (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Humility' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'No Misunderstanding'. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Woo hoo the mainframe showed me choir's livestream rehearsal tonight!
• Once it was over,dad told me to use the loo and get into the car since we were going out to dinner tonight to celebrate the Mid-Autumn festival!
• Lol, lucky I had rice for lunch coz dad's purpose for having dinner @ the Sunnybank Hills Sports And Community Club was to eat steak and chowder! I'm not really a fan of either but hey.
• Once dad tootled us back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle and plopped back online.
• Toms: Ete's coming to help me up @ 9am and then driving me to the Garbo library for GCCW! While I'm attending, she'll buy groceries for PIG mum and then buy me some chicken wrap for lunch because I've got UQ physio from like 1-2pm! Then she'll see me home and showered before leaving @ like 3:30/4pm.
• PIG mum had better lemme eat one of the two buns I bought this morning from Wooliesfor arvo tea!
• Wonder if I'll get to watch the 6pm bulletin for the 103RD time?
• But there's isn't any finals football happening toms night; I'm planning to spend my most important two hours of the day online and try finish my monthly blog post; there's only like one week left in September!
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 394

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3249 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Ammunition Angrist Anxiety' and thirdly, TWFT topic's "Let God's Love Dispel Your Fear". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am 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*
• Sleep returns for another hour, me waking for the pot :P again after dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage.
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore again, waking once more for the pot :P when PIG mum begins her daily very noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before letting herself back out to await Juliet's arrival.
• When Juliet arrives, PIG mum teaches her how to gimme fifteen more minutes but when she returns three minutes and forty seconds too early, Uber stiffly sends her away. Lucky she complies and buggers off, otherwise he'd have given her the feared Bear Bum! XD
• The second time Juliet 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 Juliet who squirts me some toothpaste; is this Ela's first break this week? Think so. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is one bowl of porridge with one slice of plain toast spread with strawberry jam (from PIG mum) and butter (from Juliet after I asked PIG mum why hadn't she spread any butter?), all my usual drugs :P and one bowl of plain porridge. PIG mum forgot the full mug of water; before she could remember I quickly popped each pill with some porridge. 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*
• Breakfast finished, 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!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Juliet's car's passenger seat and she tootles me out for grocery shopping! Our first stop: Warrigal Square Woolies; pity Chris wasn't working!
• Our other stop for groceries is Coles @ Pinelands Plaza, before we have lunch @ Ho Lin Wah, since I need my weekly does of HK-style milk tea. XD Alas, neith set meal suited me, but since I needed my once-weekly HK-style milk tea, I ordered the cheapest rice dish on the menu and Juliet shouted me thirty cents~
• Back home, I took a very quick nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Juliet who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was some kinda toasted sandwich and mug of Chinese/green tea.
• After signing Juliet off with my thanks and byes (she's back again same time next Wednesday) I booted the computer up before PIG mum tootled me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. While he gave me treatment, she very enthusiastically yapped her head off to him. XD
• Back home, I tootled online for myself after sending around my GCCW homework.
• Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and hopefully PIG mum'll hopefully feed me some arvo tea.
• 5:30pm till 6:30 I've joining choir rehearsal online.
• Apparently dad's taking us out tonight and eating steak for a belated Mid-Autumn Festival celebration?
• Toms: think it's Ete helping me up and taking me to GCCW. She'll grocery shop for PIG mum while I'm attending the meeting.
• Since I've got NAB physio @ like 1pm, PIG mum's gonna get her to buy me some chicken wrap and I'll eat inside her car while she's driving to the NAB.
• She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ like 4pm.
• No finals football toms night; presumably I'll complete my monthly blogf post.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
