Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4060 (sweet I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Forsaken Feelings' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Embassy". Righteo, just briefly continuing events for tonight?
- Cripes, when PIG mum came to hit me with the eye goo before bolting her for her half day's work, she said CODA had rung and Karina had called in sick; even worse, they hadn't found a replacement yet! ><
- After she left, dad came to retuck me back into bed, saying CODA had rung and found a carer who could take me, but she wasn't free until 10:30pm, so sleep.
- Had a massive snore and woke again for the pot :P around 10am; dad randomly re-entered my room and said she's arriving soon. Since PIG mum had left the day's clothes for me on the little stool, I decided to get myself mostly kitted first; when the new carer arrived I'd just get her to help me with Elf's AFO straps and both laces and then we'd go! I managed everything except the bra strap; some woman had told me in some stroke support group she did the clasps first before slipping the bra over her head. While Ela's like useless now I didn't realise that Era had lost so much dexterity that she couldn't do them! >< Luckily, after Tally (she's forty and lives @ Redbank Plains; looks Kiwi but she's a Queenslander) she helped me with that; I brushed teeth, munched breakfast, did a stinky unspeakable and we were off!
- Tally parked outside on level two (all the side parks were taken); while she went to find the groceries PIG mum wanted I posted a quick update onto Facebook and when she came back with a trolley we bought the groceries together. Didn't see Caitlin @ Woolies today but there was a commotion @ the self-serve checkouts; some chic had been caught shoplifting but was released coz you can't prosecute minors! o_O
- Whoops, outta time, so super-briefly:
- Had lunch with Pastor Grace @ Woka Warrigal; for my last official birthday meal; I had the Hokkien fried rice with a HK-style cold milk tea coffee. Also, Pastor Grace gave me this most AMAZING present: HK-style milk tea in PACKETS!!! She said she bought it from the Calamvale Central Asian grocery store; when she saw it, she immediately thought of me!! XD
- Got home, and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Tally who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted I popped online. When Tally left @ 3:30/4pm, I signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's actually the biological mum of Vicki's kids!
- Had arvo tea, popped online, had dinner, returned online.
- Righteo, fingers crossed I can brb 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 the week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
