Sunday Post 321b

 Heylo again, good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3682. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After washing and drying Era, before sitting on the chair inside the front door and awaiting Fi's arrival, I detoured into my room and grabbed Uber, coz he wanted to visit his vet!
  • When Fiona arrived, I walked out holding Uber - but she didn't recognise him! uber flew into a terrible sulk. XD
  • First she stopped @ the Warrigal square Maccas and got a coffee for herself and a hot chocolate for me before driving us to the Lung residence for small group. Thankfully the sky was dry and I was able to descend their pebbly driveway without problem and slipping.
  • Nine attended today and we started a study from Galatians, doing Galatians 1:1-10 today. Evan and Janice brought baby Tiff, and while she crawls really fast, she can walk some too now! Only still not very steadily, rather slowly and she's prone to fall but that's alright coz her nappy provides perfect cushioning! ;)
  • After Fiona pushed me back up the steep driveway, she tootled us back to BCAC and I used the loo once before grabbing my usual spot. PIG mum arrived to leave me like fifteen bucks for lunch.
  • Stayed seated for worship today, yay! Sang everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Pastor Grace; her sermon topic was about loving God and was really short coz service ended twenty-ninbe minutes early today!
  • Only thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Joanne and Julz brought Sparkless3 over, I transferred into him and then used loo once myself.
  • Joanne drove us somewhere in like Rochedale and bought us bahn mi for lunch!
  • At Rochedale High I transferred to Sparkjless3 and we wheeled me down to where everyone was eating lunch. This bahn mi had more crispy pork but was shorter; also, their pearl milk tea was a failure. XD
  • Joey rolled me down the grassy hill and I played mobile games under the shelter while people played touch!
  • Actually, 'twas only training! Before the real match started, Reverend Chris came and said wanna watch the game IP close? I'll wheel you down.
  • Afterwards, got Supreme Leader to push me back up the hill.
  • Had arvo tea and showered.
  • Dinner was @ SCSC.
  • Toms: some new carer's helping me up; her name's sth like Siri? Sira? Hope she's nice~ PIG mum says we can go for walkies @ Underwood MarketPlace then coming home for a shower and hopefully lunch with dearest dad @ home.
  • Seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture toms; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 118TH time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 321

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2323 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Suffering That Strengthens Faith; thirdly, TWFT topic's "It's An Inside Job (4)"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Make It Your Own, Dawg!'; fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's "God's Immutability and Faithfulness" and sixthly the spam count for the weekend's already thirteen but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHT MINUTES online after our once-weekly dinner out!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:30am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fall back asleep since I know PIG mum's gonna get really noisy less than one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, @ 6:20am noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again. After that 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*

  • At 7:30am, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's still @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. She comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming outside when PIG mum orders I eat breakfast for her first.
  • Breakfast is one of the delicious little chicken buns that PIG mum made last night (I only painted the eggwash and sprinkled the sesame seeds XD), one bowl of Minus :P 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 walk myself slowly and safely to the loo,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

Saturday Post 321c

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2455. Not quite 2.5 grand; toms, perhaps. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • I'm listening to the Broncos match right now; we're losing by six points! ><
  • At 9pm I walk myself slowly and safely to the toilet 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: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the first special thing's that Fi's picking me up @ 8:30am and then taking me to the Lung residence for SG, and after ESS joey's taking me to Rochedale High for lunch with other ESS people and then I'll spectate and cheer for her team in the touch footy comp! Obviously the cruel and unfaithful God has left me too fricking disabled to play ... >< *sigh*
  • Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 321b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2744 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Why The Wheelchair? Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • Fifteen minutes later, I call out that I'm hungry and swing myself over to the commode for two more tinkles. Dolly appears, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth; Ela enjoys her last break from having to hold the toothbrush.
  • After drinking one cup of water, I sit over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Thanks to dad who cooked meat omelette and left me one (not half) a sandwich; thanks also to Dolly who added one slice of cheese but she didn't need to butter the top, just add butter before cooking it on the stove! XD Before and after breakfast, I read for thirty minutes and since I wasn't sure where Dancing Brumby was, I started reading the first of three books UMncle Norm had given me about some guy that apparently had conversations with God!
  • After using the loo for one tinkle I climbed into Dolly's passenger seat and she tootled me off to Calamvale Central. Both parents had emphasised to me repeatedly that I was to WALK for that trip and that Sparkless3 was only in Dolly's boot just in case; you can believe how PISSED I was to discover that Woolies had run outta facial tissues! >< But I bought myself a yummy veggie tempura sushi roll for arvo tea and Dolly got herself THREE!
  • Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Dolly who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, Dolly makes me another mug of white tea with two sugars, reheats some lunch for me, goes back to clean the bathroom and then sits to eat her three veggie tempura rolls. 
  • At 1:40pm, dad arrives home and sends me to the loo. I call my thanks and byes to Dolly and stay over the loo for two tinkles before climbing into the passenger seat of dad's 4WD, despite his incessant nagging I come out now. XD
  • At church we play four times together, not taking a break between the second and third games. I saw Aunty Carly and don't mess with Uncle Sam: unlike Uncle Sam: while he doesn't screech like Uncle Wallace does, he's silently lethal! XD
  • Back home, I use the loo once and then head down the hallway to munch my delicious veggie tempura sushi roll and drinkmone mug of some infusion. I also read for thirty more minutes, reaching page fifty @ exactly 4pm!
  • After visiting the loo for one tinkle I plop online, visiting the loo for two more tinkles @ 5:50pm.
  • Only suddenly, @ 6pm, PIG mum summons me for dinner! I tell her dad promised to wait for me before having dinner together but she smugly replied, tough. We're hungry and we're gonna eat first. Huh. *sigh*
  • Once the news finished, 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 yummy kailan, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa some third vegetable I've since forgotten ... hairy melon, perhaps? and one pork bone with a tiny bit of meat still attached.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl 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 Saturday, the final, final events for Sunday, else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 321

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2410 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "God's Plan For Martyrs"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "It's An Inside Job (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Puddles of Sunshine' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ELEVEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 118TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! This almost didn't nearly happen: PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 11:55pm and wakes me with a full bladder! Luckily, I use the pot :P really quickly and am back under the covers before the new day arrives and I didn't awake again until noisy PIG mum began her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 6:35am, and after another pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew with certainty that she'd get very noisy again less than one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, PIG mum noisily a-THUMPING upstairs and getting changed for her half day's work was 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*
  • Come 7:30am, PIG mum dashes into my room, hits me with the eye goo and bolts off for her half day's work. After dearest dad retucks Uber and me back into bed, says he'll leave me some rice leftovers and promises to stay quiet so that we can snore in peace, before returning to happy snorings with Uber 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*

  • Before Dolly arrives @ 10am, I wake twice more for the pot :P; after she arrives, dad gives me fifteen more minutes and they both wisely retreat when Uber nods @ them. XD
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Dolly who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

  • The parents ruined the day for me when I wanted to watch the news from the computer. (1) dad made me watch from the television, (2) he took my mobile away meaning I couldn't record all the things I like to, (3) he wouldn't lemme raise the footrest till half time and (4) he wouldn't even lemme lean against the backrest! >< Luckily, the massage chair's to the right of the sofa, I just fully leaned against Era. XD
  • After the news was over I went to the bathroom before returning online, but dad ruined that too when he demanded I put down the loo seat for him! I said I had to record that down first lest I forget and he chucked a cow @ me; PIG mum returned home from sth and immediately joined in. ><
  • Had the usual dinner, took bowl to sink and returned online, only for dad to demand I come back and watch the end to the second half. ><

  • After washing and drying Era, I pop into Dolly's passenger seat and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my extra shopping trip (since GCCW got cancelled). Thanks muchly to her who helps me with my seatbelt all day~
  • At Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown, Dolly finds parking outside level two, I transfer into Sparkless3 and we start shopping!
  • Amazingly, all the stacks of buns have been moved and Sparkless3 fits inside the store! I get a custard bun and a sausage bun, say thanks to the Korean owner in Korean and we head next to Wooolies to buy groceries.
  • We've just entered the store when Pastor Grace rings me, saying she and Chris have already arrived! I say we've only just started shopping and she says oh, but they need to go pickup Naomi from school and I'm like sorry, perhaps lunch next Thursday fortnight, then? After hanging up, I tell Dollyn just us for lunch now and she says oh, no, let's go meet your friends for lunch now! We can buy Woolies groceries from the Warrigal Square store afterwards, I realise! I quickly ring back Pastor Grace and say we're coming!
  • I get twelve fried pork dumplings with chives and a milk tea; thanks to Reverend Chris who pours me a little saucer of soya sauce.
  • Over lunch, we all just chat. Poor Pastor Grace hasn't been very well this week - bbl!
    Cheers,

  • PIG mum rushes into my room and hits me with the eye goo and is just about to dash out for her half day's work when the phone rings: it's CODA, saying Karina can't come coz she's sick! o_O Well, you find someone to take Emily out coz I'm going to work now! PIG mum screeches. Luckily, dad's not working today and can wait for the carer's arrival.
  • Eep I sleep really soundly and don't wake again until the carer arrives: just past 11am! o_O I'm ready to get up right away but dad's like no, I've gotta explain things to her first.
  • Dolly's from West Africa, fifty-five, has seven kids and @ least four grandkids! We get me kitted, I brush teeth, use loo for one tinkle and have breakfast. Lol, apart from getting one bowl of the yummier (flaky) All-Bran, I also get TWO slices of toast - one with avocado and salt; the other with butter and strawberry jam - and one mug of white tea with two sugars! :D 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.

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature had already called once @ 11:55pm but since I used the pot :P very quickly and was back under the  covers before midnight arrived I'm saying I had an awesome sleep last night because nature didn't call until 6:35am. After another pot :P trip, I immediately fell back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy less than one hour later!

  •  After washing and drying Era, I cllimb into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and she tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture. Obviously, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt both ways, for some reason she won't lemme listen to the radio coz she insisted on listening to her own mix of Canto/Chinese pop and today, Era helped Ela stretch for thirty minutes, before Ela opened and closed her palm 200 times, holding each for a count of five.

  • At Ray's, I used the bathroom for one tinkle and then lay down for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum was obviously in her element yapping unceasingly @ Ray; my grateful thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation going. Actually, PIG mum managed to refrain from getting too excited today; she only repeated two words thrice. XD

  • After one more bathroom trip, PIG mum tootled us home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat @ the computer to finish and send my GCCW homework out.

  • Lunch was two slices of frozen pizza PIG mum baked in the oven with extra cheese and pineapple!

  • Lunch was washed down with one cup of Chinese/green tea; before plopping online, I used the loo for one tinkle.

  • Thanks to PIG mum who opened the door for Breanna when she announced her arrival, 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 Breanna who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right tightly shut. While I showered, we chatted: turns out she's twenty-seven turning twenty-eight toms and she's studying OT @ uni!

  • I had one tinkle before Breanna flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Breeana rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's sock and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.

  • Back outside, arvo tea was one little banana, one small mouthful of gloopy passionfruit and one mug of some infusion. Breana cleaned the bathroom and then sat besides me playing with her mobile; if she comes back again I'll ask her to give Ela a massage.

  • At 5:55pm I used the loo for two more tinkles and then crashed onto the couch to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 115TH time!

  • Toms: Karina was supposed to take me to GCCW but the meeting has been postponed because one member has COOVID (Ken), another may have COVID and another two are self-isolating for fear of getting COVID! Originally I was like hey how about I sit inside the meeting room and then raid the kitchen for morning tea but Alison said there won't be any bikkies there! In that case, PIG mum says Karina and I can do the same Sunnybank Hills Shop like we did last week.

  • Meeting Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace for lunch @ Impressive Dumplings @ 12:30! I'm not fretting that I won't get my once-weekly fix of HK-style milk tea because Pastor Grave bought me a packet of powdered HK-style milk tea; will just ask PIG mum to please make a cup for me when she gets home from her half day's work.

  • Righteo, hopefully bbll after dinner, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 321

 Good afternoon! Firstly, my final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 4666 (sweet, I'm over 4.5 grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD); secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2376 steps; thirdly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'What It Means To Love Money'; fourthly, TWFT topic's "Let God's Peace Be Your Yardstick and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Key' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ONE MINUTE online after I watch the 6pm bulletin for the 115TH time!! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

  • When dearest dad got home, PIG mum rocked out to go play ping pong with Aunty Catherine. Having finished my fruity arvo tea, I happily read until dad ordered me off to go sit over the loo @ 5:25pm and await for Kim's arrival @ 5:30pm. Kim usually arrives one/two minutes early; once she arrived dad was immediately hurrying me to get off the loo but I sat over the bowl for two tinkles before complying. XD
  • Kim tootles me off to QUT Gardens Point for Toastmasters!
  • Lol, worse attendance ever: Neil, that high school boy and me! We all took turns speaking but still finished thirty minutes early~
  • Kim tootled me back to the Warrigal Square Maccas for my pissy little Happy Meal with an orange juice; I opened the MyMaccas app for her and she chose a crispy chicken McWrap for her own dinner.
  • Lucky Kim left about fifteen minutes early; she's back again for Toastmasters next fortnight.
  • The MyMaccas app had apple pies and creme brulee pies for $1.50 and PIG mum lemme buy one home to share with her and dad! DELICIOUS; just a pity I didn't get one all for myself! PIG mum obviously just screeched how sweet they were. XD
  • Repeat the usual nightly events, zzz~
  • Today: yay, for the first time in three days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:40am; after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep straightaway since dad would probably leave for work about one hour later!
  • Sure enough, @ 7:40am I'm awakened for another pot :P trip when dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage. 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 goodbye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore for another hour, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her noisy 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 but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. That done, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when PIG mum demands I eat breakfast for her first.

  • Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier flaky bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and perhaps very lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

    P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm bulletin (Nine's, read by Peter Overton) for the 115TH time: Uhlmann, Pearl (heard), Strobel (heard), Allcroft, Bracken, Dewberry, Genders, Fainu, Samar first name),  Trump, Biden (heard), Piotrowski, Pence, Arrow Nitschke, Demi (first name), Godfrey, Brody, Ward, Perottet (heard), Upcroft (heard), Zelensky, Kalder, Fitzpatrick, Kean, Isaah (first name), Hastings, Moses (heard), Ciraldo (heard), Foketi and Longmire. Chris Kohler read the finance report; 1AUD =69.75USc. Brisbane will be 7-21 tomorrow.Lol, for some reason Breanna turned on NSW 's Nine's news for me? 😂😂

Tuesday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3939 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Satan's Strategy And Your Defense"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Zip It!" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God Of The Garden". Anyways, events for today?

  • When nature called once @ 12:05am and I used the pot :P once, I'd expected that I would then sleep straight until after the Sun had risen. Wonder why nature nudged me awake again @ 2am with another full bladder? Made myself a mental note: must ask Google "why do I need to pee more during Winter'. XD
  • After a third pot :P trip around 6:30am, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that initial morning pot :P trip, but happiness is snoring happily with Uber all the way until 7:45am before waking for another pot :P trip, when dearest dad very thoughtfully walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage.
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P about one hour later. Shortly after that, noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and shortly after that, she lets herself into my room and hits me with the eye goo before going back outside to await Hannah's arrival @ 9am.
  • Lol, somehow I was so sleepy I don't remember Hannah entering, saying good morning and fifteen more minutes; when she comes back inside I wave Uber @ her and mutter "Fifteen more minutes ...' Hannah's like, oh, you want another fifteen? Oh, all right, you've got enough 6time today. When she came back a third time I got up and swung myself over to the pot :P for three more tinkles, apologising that sorry, the first time you came in I was so sleepy I forgot! XD
  • We get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys having another break this morning from having to hold the toothbrush~
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when PIG mum orders eat breakfast first coz she wants to change the dressing over Elf's ankle.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. 

Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

  •  Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely to the loo,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into Hannah's tank and she tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking one exit shy from the end.

  • We first visit Woolies but there's no facial tissues left, so Hannah leaves me bracing against some shelf and quickly gets her own items. At the checkout, the guy before us spends enough for a Fix-Em but makes no indication he wants it; I take the initiative and try asking excuse me, sir, if you don't want your Fix-Em, please may I have it? He looks @ me, before turning to the checkout chic and saying yeah, give it to her. Score!

  • Our other stop's the Calamvale Central bakery for our bahn mis! Hannah gets herself a crackling pork one and I have a chicken one. Originally I wanted the lemongrass chicken one but the uncle tells me 'no lemongrass chicken left'. While we're waiting, I ask uncle, why no lemongrass chicken left? Uncle just shrugs and throws his hands into the air. I no time! XD

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

  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is my yummy bahn mi, plus one mug of the defence infusion. Hannah cleans the bathroom and then sits beside me to eat her own bahn mi.

  • At 2pm I sign her off with my thanks and byes. She's not back till next Tuesday, same time.

  • kim's taking me to Toastmasters tonight! Loioking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas, never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate surely MORE THAN TWO DECADES ago!! *sigh*

  • Toms: PIG mum's taking me to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply DYING to yap incessantly @ him. XD

  • Must remember to finish my GCCW homework when I get home!

  • Angelica's minding me from 4pm till 6pm; wonder how many eff bombs she'll drop? XD

  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4361. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I just played with my mobile.
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me from 9-1. PIG mum's got David coming for his last ever physio session with me; must remember to write his thank-you card toms!
  • Kim's taking me to Toastmasters toms night! But since two have already pulled out ... there will prolly be less than four attending toms night. XD Still I'm looking forward to dinner from Maccas, even though Happy Meals were what I ate surely MORE THAN TWO DECADES ago!! *sigh*

Monday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3663 steps (ha, I'm over 3.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Jesus Keeps His Sheep'; thirdly TWFT topic's "Give It All You've Got!" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Travelling Light' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 114TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Huh, I'd just begun a new awesome sleep streak (four days) when nature ruined it, nudging me awake @ 12:05am and demanding I use the pot :P! Never mind, for the past three years I've managed to achieve one straight week of awesome sleeps @ least twenty-five times; will be content with whatever I can get now because @ least I know I'm capable of doing it!
  • Nature called again this morning around 6:30am; 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*

  •  After dearest dad has kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his half day's work, Uber and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside to await Veronica's arrival.

  • After she gives me fifteen more minutes, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys starting the week without having to hold the toothbrush~ That done, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when Veronica wanders down the hall and asks am I alright?

  • Breakfast was the last of the yummy polo buns that PIG mum made recently, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one bowl of the yummier flakier bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran). XD Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live??

    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^
    P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's, read by Max Futcher) for the 114TH time: Boulton, Whop, Marles, Palaszczuk, Gyte, Herbert (heard), Harwood (heard), Ribarich, Proctor (heard), Steadman, Tate, Rudd (heard) , Dutton (heard), Lester, Pocock, Watt, Balme, Palaszczuk, Tate, Etherington, Cooney, Whitfeld, Levi, King, Dry, Vingeggard, Clay, Bissell, Pavlou, Titmus (heard), Dymock, Kreig, Gillman, Quist, Henderson, Amor (heard), Leclerc (heard), Verstappen, Cox, Niu, Cobbo (heard), Blowers, Bloom (heard), Bradshaw, Gilding, Dahlstrom, Zorko, Moloney and Albanese. 69USc = 1AUD.  Shane Webcke read the sports report and Tony Auden read the weather report. Brisbane was 10-22 today. Brisbane toms: 10-25. Mt. Gravatt toms 8-24. Sunrise 6:24am Sunset 5:17

  • Breakfast finished, I sit once more over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him.

  • After publishing the previous post, I chatted with Uncle Norm over Messenger for awhile; turns out the Kindle he gave me today's actually second-hand! He originally bought it for Owen but since Owen wasn't interested with it, he rewrapped it and gave it to me!
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me 9-1. Think PIG mum said she'll send us for walkies @ Underwood MarketPlace.
  • She'll see me showered and fed with lunch before PIG mum takes me to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. Bet she's just DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • Fingers crossed I can read for one hour and watch the 6pm bulletin for the 114TH time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,

 Heylo again and goods evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3726 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Ammunition Of Bible Promises'. Righteo, just briefly, continuing tonight's events?

  • Had two bananas, three milk chocolate Hello Panda bikkies and a warm mug of stth for arvo tea. Unwrapped the Christmas in July present got me - OMG, it's a KINDLE! Read for one hour one of the mystery books he'd downloaded for me right away.
  • 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, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was all done after only 9%, but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before flipping the nice hot water off.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, I flopped onto the couch and watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 113TH time!
  • Dinner tonight was @ Sunnybank Oriental. As expected, got piss little but yay that the B meal was stir fry ho fan in Shun Tak style!
  • Got home, used loo once and returned online.

Sunday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2503 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XDS); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'How To Defy Sinful Desire'; thirdly, TWFT devotional topic's "Three 'Cheers'"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Knows'; fifthly, the spam count for the week's actually sixteen and seventhly, the spam count for the weekend's only nine. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs awoke me; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum a-THUMPING upstairs and attending to her personal needs was 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* 
  • At 7:30am, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. 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). That done, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle before coming out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier (flaky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD), one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one of the little polo buns I helped mother make last 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.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and she tootles us off to church. I hike down the driveway, visit the loo once (had to use the normal ladies loo since the disabled loo lid was closed and PIG mum wouldn't lift it for me) before entering our Bible study classroom.
  • Today Uncle William taught from Galatians 1-2:10. Thankfully he started @ 9am when I asked him please to, although class ended three minutes late.
  • When Bible study finished, I used the loo once more myself (thankfully, the loo lid had been lifted but the seat was too; but that doesn't matter), took a packet of Jatz crackers from Aunty Catherine who was handing out morning tea, hiked upstairs and grabbed my usual spot in the main hall. PIG mum dashed off for her coffee and gossip session with her aunty friends, and dad appeared forbidding me to have lunch out with other ESS people once service ended.
  • Stayed seated for worship; sang everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Peter Pie! His sermon was from Hosea fourteen.
  • Called PIG mum for pickup afterwards but was terribly disappointed to even get a pissy little Happy Meal for lunch; no, she tootled me straight home!
  • But since dumplings are my favourite food, I didn't really mind standing there and frying them~
  • TThose delicious dumplings were washed down with one mug of peppermint tea. Only for some reason I don't really feel full? Well, you are hungrier during Winter ...
  • Dad had better take us out to Chinese food for dinner tonight and gimme ONE bowl of rice!
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me 9-1. Expecting PIG mum to send us for walkies to Underwood Marketplace.
  • Seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture @ 2pm; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • Fingers crossed I can read for one hour and watch the 6pm bulletin for the 113TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl later, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 320c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3802. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I read all the match reports I could find and basked in the Broncos' glory. 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.
  • PIG mum had better gimme my ice cream tonight; she didn't last night coz she hit the sack first!
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Oh, the special thing's that Uncle Norm says he's got a Christmas in July present for me!
  • Would love lunch out with other ESS people, especially since dearest dad's got other things happening and won't order me to have Maccas with him, but horrid PIG mum's already refused and saying we'll have lunch @ home. >< *sigh* Perhaps I can persuade her to take me to Chatterbox for lunch; it's been four years ...
  • Alas, don't won't take us out for dinner coz he's still attending whatever started toms arvo and PIG mum won't drive @ night. Perhaps I could try ask for a pizza delivery? Nah, fat chance. >< *sigh*
  • Righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 320b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3599 (ha, I'm over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Work Of God's Spirit". Righteo, just briefly, continuing events for Saturday?

  • Brushed teeth, did a stinky unspeakable, had the usual Saturday breakfast and read for thirty minutes, reaching pg. 150 @ 11:20am.
  • Went with Nisha to Calamvale Central. No cheap facial tissues left but I bought a calamari sushi roll for arvo tea.
  • Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Nisha who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted Nisha reheated the rice leftovers dad had left her for my lunch and made me two more big mugs of white tea with two sugars while I happily read for another thirty minutes, reaching pg. 100 @ 2:48pm.
  • Dad sent me to the loo @ 1:38pm and signed Nisha off early before driving me to church to play ping pong with him. Turns out there was a garage sale in the main hall today? Dad was funny, getting up me for not hitting the ball perfectly back @ him and going on about how he had to BEG someone to let him take me to play ping pong? Will tell him next week if it causes that big a drama, just don't bother.
  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle, munched my sushi arvo tea roll and popped online.
  • For some reason, dad demanded I watch the news from the sofa?
  • Ate dinner afterwards - there was CHEESE! Asked PIG mum where the cheese came from; turns out the fish and chips we shared yesterday came with a lil salad that contained cheese!
  • Drank soup, took bowl to sink and returned online.
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl after one more loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday, else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from Friday's actually 4571 (sweet, I'm just over 4.5 grand!); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Preach To Yourself'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Science Recognises The Power Of Prayer (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Called To Grow' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 112TH time!! Anyways, just briefly let's start off with Thursday night's events first!

  • The Broncos won! I watched Thursday night knockoff and got myself off to bed.Zzz~
  • Friday just briefly:
  • Peggy couldn't take me to the NAB coz she'd caught COVID! O_o Dad took me instead.
  • Physio @ the NAB yesterday: reaching for Era, cone work for Ela, lay down for Dennis to assess Elf and twenty transfers from floor onto plinth, with both one and two-point kneeling. Really gloated @ Mr. Jig-Air that QLD won the series. XD
  • Hannah minded me from 4-6pm and I watched the 6pm bulletin (Nine's) for the 11TH time! Saw that Divergebt was playing @ 7:30pm; bags I watch that!
  • Wolfed down dinner quickly @ 7pm and was on the sofa for the movie's start! PIG mum hit me with the eye goo and hit the sack but I watched the whole movie; 'twas great! Wonder if the second and third books were turned into movies too?
  • Today: yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum began her daily a-THUMPING around @ 6:20am and woke me; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep again coz I knew she'd get very noisy one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, @ 7:20am noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for her half day's work; that's my wakeup call for another pot :P  trip, 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 PIG mum hits me with the eye goo before rushing off for her half day's work, 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*
  • Dad retucks Uber in bed, promises to stay quiet and lemme snore in peace and also promises to leave Mr someone leftovers for lunch. Then Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once/twice more for the pot :P before Nisha announces her arrival @ 10am.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • When the ad before the weather report came on,I yelled upstairs and asked dad could he please microwave some dinner for me? I'm coming once the news has finished! Dad goes yup~
  • At 7pm, I use the loo for one tinkle and then head down to the gobbling :P table and munch the tasteless rice leftovers dad's kindly microwaved me for dinner. Wanted to skip soup but dad insisted I drink a bowl for him before crashing onto the couch.

Wednesday Post 320e

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! With a final, final plodding total of 2500, lemme just cover final, final events for Wednesday?

  • After publishing the previous post, I played Candy Crush and Candy Crush Soda Saga; I passed one more Soda Crush level! XD
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: Annette's taking me for my fortnightly shopping trip coz poor Karina's got cervical spondylitis thing ... o_O 
  • Meeting Fiona and bubs for lunch @ C Cafe come midday!
  • Fi's giving me a lift home because Annette needs to leave @ 1pm for another shift! But she'll return 4-6pm coz I need a shower!
  • Hopefully she'll microwave me dinner before she leaves coz the Broncos are playing toms night! Just pity that even Webcke thinks they'll lose. XD But look on the bright side: should they lose I can get my tiny bit of Thursday ice cream! XD
  • Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^ 

Wednesday Post 320d

 Good evening again! Firstly, I've already logged in Wednesday's plodding total @ 2500 and secondly, Joni's devotional tropic's 'Comfort Of The Spirit'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • When Angelica announces her arrival one minute late, thanks to PIG mum who lets 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 Angelica who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, I head outside and munch two bananas, one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit and drink one mug of yummy peppermint tea for arvo tea. I also happily read the book club novel for one hour, reaching page fifty @ 4:1pm and then reaching page seventy-five @ 5:18pm before getting to play mobile games for nineteen minutes - I passed another two/four levels of whatever that jewels game's called! XD
  • Returned to the couch and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 108TH time when Angelica left.
  • Used loo for one tinkle and then returned online after the news finished.
  • When the parents summoned me for dinner I used the loo for one tinkle before walking 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 yummy wombok, lotsa soup carrot, some bean vermicelli and two/three small but delicious slices of chicken.
  • 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 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's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 320c

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Gonna login Wednesday's final, final plodding total for Wednesday @ 2500 because Angelica forgot to take Wally off when she massaged Ela for like one hour and he's already given me 4800 steps! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • After publishing the last post, Michelle from CODA suddenly rang and said Karina can't make it coz she's busted her shoulder! o_O I'm like eep but you'd better find someone who can take me out coz PIG mum's working toms morning! Turns out Annette can but she's gotta leave @ 1pm because she's got another shift ... me: but I gotta shower too? Don't think I can wolf down lunch and shower all before 1pm ... Michelle solves the problem: Annette will come @ 7am toms and take me shopping and out for lunch before leaving @ 1pm but she'll return from 4-6 for my shower. Phew! Fi's a champ; when I asked her could she please drop me home after our lunch together she immediately replied sure!
  • When Angelica announces her arrival one minute late, thanks to PIG mum who lets her in, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous - bbl!
    Cheers,

Wednesday Post 320b

 Heylo again, good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2077. Ha, I'm just over two grand.XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • One hour later, I'm awoken for another pot :P trip when dearest dad very thoughtfully walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage door. After he kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me 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 but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. Whilst doing so, I spend some time 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*
  • PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
  • After washing and drying Era, I sit on the chair in the hallway and wait for PIG mum to attend to her personal needs. After she feeds me one full mug of water, I climb into her 4WD's backseat and she tootles me off to the pathology place @ the Sunnybank Private Hospital to get my blood test. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, we listen to NOVA 106.9FM all day too and today, Era helps Ela stretch for forty minutes before Ela opens and closes her palm 200 times, holding each for a count of five.
  • Lol, the place is packed and PIG mum drives around the building five times before she finally gets the disabled parking spot!Taking the liftt up, we sit and wait briefly before I'm called into the room. The blood nurse goes through the usual details with me, and then approaches Ela with a sharp pointy needle ... ><
  • After the stinging first jab she says she's found the vein and I'm like phew! No more needles! Then suddenly, the vein slips away?! I'm resigning myself to another painful jab when suddenly shes no, wait: I've found it again! Phew! There's absolutely zero pain after the initial sting and discomfort with her looking for the vein; the next time I look, she's already extracted two full vials from Ela!
  • Blood sucked, I say my thanks and byes, travel back down the lift and climb into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD. It's already 10:26pm; there's no time to wait! 
  • upon arrival, PIG mum says to just go to the counter and order because if I sit down before she goes to order Maccas may have already changed to the day menu. Fair enough; luckily I checked the menu online last night and know exactly what I want! 
  • Actually I've forgotten the name but it's a McMuffin with both bacon and sausage! Perhaps mighty McMuffin? PIG mum just gets herself a bacon 'n' egg McMuffin, gets a free coffee coz she's older than sixty and nabs half my hash brown.
  • After that, she tootles me off to Ray's for some massage and acupuncture. I use the loo once for one tinkle and then lie down for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element yapping unceasingly @ Ray; my grateful thanks to him who always replies and keeps a conversation flowing. PIG mum didn't get *too* excited today and only repeated one word four times; her record's eight! XD
  • After one more loo trip, PIG mum tootles us home. I open the front door and then plop online briefly while PIG mum whips up lunch for us.
  • Lunch is one can of Campbell's cream of corn soup with lotsa added veggies, a few tiny strips of added beef, one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast and one mug of way-too-fragrant jasmine tea.
  • After lunch I pop online, using the loo for one more tinkle @ 2:30pm.
  • Angelica's minding me from 4-6pm. Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 108TH time when she leaves!
  • Toms: Karina's minding me 7:30am till 3:30pm. Doubt PIG mum will lemme sit and read while Karina buys our groceries for us, but hey. Gloating rights are mine this year because Queensland won the Origin!! :D
  • Looking forward to meeting Fiona for lunch @ C Cafe!
  • Ooh the Broncos are playing the Eels toms night! Bags I watch that match, so hope dad gets home and microwaves me dinner @ 6pm! I can manage 7pm but dinner'll be very rushed and I'll skip soup.
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner tonight else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1957 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'His Timing Is Perfect'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "When You're Tested" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'What A Find!' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-NINE MINUTES after lunch today!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Nature called once last night @ 1:50am; I used the pot :P again @ 6:35am 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*

Tuesday Post 319c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4203. Ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen very often! XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • I'd just published the previous post when dad came over, ordered I turn the music down and then demanded I get up and try the new seat that's just arrived. Only then he got up me for getting off the chair 'incorrectly'? That led him to giving me this detailed instruction on how his way was the 'right' way; when he asked me thrice @ the end did I understand I answered him thrice that yes I did, only for him to get up me for not answering him just once! Um, if you ask me once I'll answer you once but if you ask me thrice surely it's only fair I may answer you thrice? XD
  • At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo for one 6inkle and back, always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: if PIG mum can get herself outta bed early enough, she says she's taking me to get a blood test @ the Sunnybank Private hospital. My wimpy veins are already wailing with fear. XD
  • FINGERS CROSSED SHE'LL REMEMBER TO TAKE ME TO BREAKFAST @ mACCAS AFTERWARDFS; WE'RE MORE THAN HALFWAY  - sorry, shrieking! ><" XD through the year and she's not taken me even once yet!
  • Seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture afterwards; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
  • Angelica's minding me 4-6pm although I'm unsure will choir practice get held coz isn't Cath awaiting her brain tumour operation?
