Friday Post 343b

 Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Posting from my mobile so please excuse any auto correct errors. 😂😂Had a smooth ride up but was busting when I arrived; had Green Sticky so made a beeline for the toilet once I entered the apartment. Wilfred was adorable; he asked am I OK by myself? Made a pizza for dinner and Annette made us cups of tea and I had a banana so shall hopefully do a stinky unspeakable after. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend ahead!

Cheey,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 343

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2225 steps (aw, how come I couldn't have plodded three fewer steps? 2222 would've sounded cooler! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Make War With Unbelief'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Blessings Of Repentance (2)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Where To Run'; fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's actually nine and sixthly, the spam count for the week's twenty-one but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOURA and TEN MINUTES online afterwards!! *sigh*. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! When the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to start tipping bins the Sun had risen and I asked my bladder did I need to use the pot :P now/may I sleep some more first? Bladder replies sleep and sweet, I snore happily with Uber until noisy PIG mum woke me with her daily a-THUMPING around before waking again for the pot. :P After the 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* 
• PIG mum lets herself into my room shortly afterwards to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival.
• Less than twenty minutes left, so just super-briefly:
• Physio was with a Singaporean who speaks Canto called Jun (pronounced June)! Today's session: Four rounds clock yourself for Era seated, four rounds clock yourself with legs, twenty laps short hallway walking and two laps long hallway walking.
• Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Annette who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch was one bowl of yummy rice leftovers (with lotsa wombok and some pork( and one mug of peppermint tea.
• OMG, PIG mum helped me back; surely the Moon will be blue tonight!! XD
• Annette's here now; after I munch arvo tea we'll head off!
• May haveta use placeholder posts until I come back; hope everyone has a great long weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 343c

 Good evening again and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4921 (aww, sorry, almost half a normal person today XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Blessing Your Critics'. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• One hour later, after Karina's found the groceries, bought buns for us and come back, I post an update onto Facebook, visit the loo for one tinkle and then begin our grocery shopping @ Woolies before buying more upstairs from Coles.
• For lunch, we meet Pastor Grace @ Woka Warrigal. I have my favourite Hokkien fried rice (no prawns) with a cold HK-style milk tea coffee, Karina has stir fry beef ho fan (but Woka calls that dish sth different) with a Lift and Pastor Grace gets like some kinda laksa. Turns out Chris won't attend the retreat coz he's got a prior speaking engagement interstate (NSW) and she's not free again for lunch until like Oct. 14th but didn't wanna divulge what, just saying it's her business. 
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Thanks to Karina who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I boot the computer up while Karina dries my hair and then cleans the bathroom. At 3:30pm I sign her off with my thanks and byes. She'll be cheering for Paramatta in Sunday's NRL grand final but I'll be cheering for the Cowboys! May the best team win~
• When PIG mum gets home from work she nabs half my sausage bun for arvo tea and gives me one mug of green tea, after which I smuggle my mobile into the loo and do another stinky unspeakable before plopping online and watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 155TH time.
• Yay dad took us out for dinner together tonight @ The Vietnamese Hut coz I'm not home come Sunday!
• Back home I used the loo for one more tinkle and returned online.
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I say, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Peggy's minding me 9-2 and taking me to the NAB for physio with ... umm, Georgie? Sth like that! XD
• She'll see me showered and fed with lunch before leaving.
• Don't think Tiff's free to come gimme OT toms; perhaps I can spend my most important two hours of the day online before Annette comes and takes me to our SG small group retreat over the long weekend! Annette says PIG mum'll pack for me; personally I don't reckon she's that nice but I'll ask her will she tonight/toms and if she won't I'll ask Peggy to please help me toms morning/arvo and then tell Annette see mother isn't THAT nice! XD
• Will only be gone over the long weekend so can't be bothered from unsubscribing from everything but may just put a few placeholder posts up. 
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 343b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4011 (ha, I'm just over five grand; that doesn't happen very often! XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed SEVENTEEN MINUTES online should I get to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 155TH time! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going upstairs and getting changed for her half-day's work; when Karina knocks she's still upstairs so I bang the wall for dad, who opens the door for Karina.
• Karina knocks, opens the door, bids both Uber and me good morning, says fifteen more minutes and wisely removes herself when uber nods @ her, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• When she returns I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles while we share about our weeks, we get me kitted and then I head over to brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who squirts me some toothpaste; Thursday's Ela's official break from having to hold the toothbrush. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle and come out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is three yummy Weet-Bix with one streak of honey each, one slice of toast lightly smeared with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Karina who turned on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure; over breakfast I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? 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 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. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

•  After washing and drying Era, I climb into Karina's passenger seat. She kindly helps me with my seatbelt (all day, thanks) and tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my fortnightly shopping trip, finding a side park along level two.

• After using the loo for one tinkle, I grabbed a new fantasy book to read! The Gospel Of Loki, reaching page twenty-five @ 10:20am. Oh, the author's some Joanne M. Harris
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 155TH time: Piotrowski, De Santis, Carnavas, Fegan, Field, Leadbetter (heard), Arvier, Katarina (first name), Millward, Palaszczuk, Harrap, de Brenni, Uhlmann, Cunningham, Proudlock, Dreyfus, Frieberg, Cavallaro, Csoban, Greenbank, Blinken, Zelensky (heard), Putin (heard), Giga (first name), Lemonjaba, Varga, Geran, Edgar, Ashtyn (first name), Lowndes, Hirin, Karani, Welton (heard), Hirean (heard), Calcutt, Caddick, Tiffiny (first name), Hynes, Tedesco (heard), Payten (heard), Nanai (heard) Armstrong, Corrigan, Goozee, Honig, Genders, Vunivalu, Gimley, Wiedler (heard), Thiago (first name), Milllward, Hoffman and Colletti (heard). 64.45USc = 1AUD.

Thursday Post 343

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3747 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Our Good Is His Glory'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Blessing Of Repentance (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Coffee-Bean Bowl' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FIVE MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home and I let her nab half my arvo tea!! Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, immediately after achieving the 9th time this year that I've achieved one straight week of awesome sleeps, my idiot bladder decided that was enough and poked me awake @ 12:30am to use the pot. :P
• Nature called again @ 6:20am when PIG mum awoke me with her customary Thursday morning a-THUMPING around upstairs and after another pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep because I knew for certain she'd get very noisy again one hour later! 
• Like clockwork, @ 7:20am PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for her half day's work; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again. After this 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*

Wednesday Post 343c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight~! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3658. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• 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: Karina's taking me for my fortnightly shopping trip, yay!
• Looking forward to having lunch with Pastor Grace @ Woka Warrigal, too!
• Fingers crossed dad will take us out for our once-weekly family dinner out toms night; Friday arvo I enter SG retreat and don't come out till Monday arvo so toms night's the only chance! Hope he's not forgotten that he owes us FOUR dinners out together??
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers.

Wednesday Post 343b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total  for Wednesday now stands @ 3587 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed SEVEN MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Oh, Joni's devotional topic's 'Your Role In Eternity'.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I headed out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, which was one yummy banana, about two chocolate Pocky sticks and one mug of warm sth. Happiness was reading the awful book club novel for one hour, reaching pg. 444 @ 4:38 and reaching pg. 450 @ 4:49!
• When Annette left I used the loo for two tinkles before happily watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 154TH time!
• Used looo for one tinkle, ate dinner, drank one mug of water (no soup), took bowl to sink and returned online.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else hope everyone's having a smashing week!

Wednesday Post 343

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3214 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Power Of A Superior Promise'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Knowing Who Belongs In Your Life' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Out Of The Heart' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-SIX MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 154TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 9th time this year I've enjoyed one straight week of awesome sleeps! :D like the previous three days, nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Usually nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip but happiness was sleeping soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again for another pot :P trip.
• 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 for about another hour, me waking once more shortly for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Annette's arrival.
• When Annette arrives, PIG mum lets her in. Annette knocks, opens the door, says good morning, fifteen more minutes? And wisely leaves when Uber nods @ her, thgus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• When Annette comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Annette who squirts me some toothpaste. After brushing teeth, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and walk myself slowly and safely out to the loo, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is one bowl of Minus :P with one slice of toast lightly spread with avocado and equally 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.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Annette's passenger seat. PIG mum gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt before Annette tootles me off to UQ for physio.
• Letesia's twenty-six and from HK like me! Physio today: eaching for Ela, peg and come work, ten laps short hallway walking and four laps long hallway walking.\
• Not only that, Sonia kept her IOU and really did get a small hot chocolate for me! Annette was even cooler: she'd gotten me a LARGE one! :D 
• Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Annette who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

Tuesday Post 342

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3839 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "Live Confident In God's Sovereign Power"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Cultivating A Taste For God's Word" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Help For Our Future". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip 

I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

•  Usually nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly until 7:45am, when dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking for another pot :P trip.

• After dearest dad has kissed me goodbye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her usual a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Hannah's arrival @ 9am.

• Once Hannah announces her arrival, PIG mum lets her in, she knocks, pushes open the door, says good morning, fifteen more minutes? And wisely leaves when Uber nods @ her, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD When Hannag returns, I use the pot :p once more for a few more tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth, where Ela enjoys another break from having to hold the toothbrush. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

• Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier (flaky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran) with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly smeared with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt and all my usual drugs :P. PIG mum forgot the cup of water; I quickly swallowed each pill with a spoonful of milk before she remembered. 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*

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 out to Calamvale Central, finding a parking spot underground coz all the disabled parking spots outside the bakery are taken.

• Our first stop's the Mega Discount Fruit and Veg shop for pears, before Hannah grabs a trolley for us and we buy groceries from Woolies. Then we sit outside Woolies and play on our mobiles for like thirty minutes - I finally pass the hard level I've been stuck on and other few afterwards!

• Our last stop's the bakery for my bahn mi; I feel like a loyal customer because the aunty remembers me finally! After I wave hi, she goes crispy/crackling pork? I say yes please; no chilli! When the owner uncle appears too, I wave again and ask him you good week? (Keeping my English simple coz it's not the best) Uncle replies yeah, bit busy. I gesture @ all the bakery items on display and ask you sell all today/take home and eat? He replies sometimes leftover take home and eat. When I go ooh yummy he goes "I big dog. He eat for me." Presumbly he means he HAS a big dog? XD

• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. When she leaves me to shower myself, I also sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud. Actually, I'm all done after just 5%, but happily lean fully against the right side rail and water myself for another tinkle before calling Hannah back.

• After getting dried, creamed and rekitted lunch is my delicious pork salad roll and one mug of peppermint tea. I'm ready to sign Hannah off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm but PIG mum's still yapping @ her so the poor girl doesn't get to leave until 2:05pm. XD

• Once she leaves, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's backseat and she tootles me off to see Dr. Ku. Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt both ways; Era also helped Ela for fifteen minutes and Ela opened and closed her palm 100 times, holding each for a count of five.

• Had to wait like thirty minutes before seeing Dr. Ku! Didn't need anything medical done; he just updated my medical chart with my allergies.

• Back home I used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.

• After I've used up my most important two hours of the day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table for some arvo tea (rice, coz I won't get any for dinner tonight) before Kim takes me to Toastmasters! I thought 'twas Annette but PIG mum says it's Kim?

• Toms: seeing Ray in the morning for some acupuncture and massage; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him.

• Annette's coming I think @ midday and taking me for a two hour session @ the NAB with a new student! Hope he/she's nice; also hope Mrs. Hoppie FINALLY shouts hot chocolate! 

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

Monday Post 342f

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2291. Righteo, final, fi al events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I read my Facebook memories for today.
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more 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 9-2. PIG mum says I can buy my weekly pork salad roll for lunch from Calamvale Central~
• Don't think I've got any appointments until Kim takes me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm; looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online and the chance to finish that awful bookj club novel!
• Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme get some dinner back from Maccas, never mind that Happy Meals were what I had surely MORE THAN TWO DECADES ago!! *sigh* Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,

  P.S. Tee hee, I've managed SIX posts today; that's even rarer than five! XD 

Monday Post 342e

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2291. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• Dried, creamed and rekitted I head out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, which is some fruit and two/three little broken Pocky sticks with one warm mug of some infusion. Happiness is getting to read the unpleasant book club novel for one hour - I've nearly finished it, thankfully! - and have like eight minutes to play mobile games, not that I passed anymore levels. XD
• At 5:55pm I used the loo for one more tinkle and then crashed on the couch to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 153RD time; all the things I like recording are in the previous post, although I accidentally said 'twas the 154TH time. Actually nature suddenly called @ 6:30pm and I quickly used the loo once during the ad break.
• News finished, I used the loo for another tinkle and walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for another tinkle and walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :p table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• After the usual boiled, bland and tasteless dinner, I drank soup, took my bowl over to the sink and walked myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 
  P.S, Tee hee, I've managed FIVE posts today!

Monday Post 342d

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2170 (ha, I'm over two grand XD and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'At The Feet Of jesus' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• I'm pulling the seat out when PIG mum suddenly orders I go make my own breakfast. No sweat, I pour myself one bowl of the yummy Frosties that we'd decided was my Sunday breakfast but she'd suddenly reneged on yesterday. I also prepare myself one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with avocado to which PIG mum perhaps sprinkles a smattering of salt, pop all my usual drugs :P and drink 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, again 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 walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• When dearest dad arrives home for lunch, PIG mum summons me over to the kitchen to cook my lunch.
• When she gives me a bowl and I take a bite, I screech, "Eww! Mum, this is LAMB, not pork! Disgusting!" She immediately finds herself sth else to eat while I choke down that yucky bowlful; thankfully she made me one cup of earl grey tea with milk to wash the taste away although some sugar added would've been much appreciated ...
• Lunch finished, I just sit and play phone games until PIG mum sends me to the loo before she tootles me off to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt both ways but she was mean and wouldn't even lemme listen to the radio either way! I tried asking both times, hmph. >< *sigh*
• At the building, we sit in the waiting room for awhile before Aunty Anna summons me inside. I lie facedown on the bed and get some massage and acupuncture from Aunty Anna. PIG mum's in her element, obviously, yapping ceaselessly @ Aunty Anna; my grateful thanks to her who always replied and kept a conversation flowing.
• After arriving home, I use the loo once and then walk myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• Thanks to PIG mum who lets Annette inside when she announces her arrival three minutes early. Me, I note down the time and walk myself slowly and safely to the bathroom, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Annette who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1697 (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and NINE MINUTES online after Annette minds me for two hours!! Righteo, continuing events for today?

• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Uber and I cuddle and snore for about another hour, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with 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.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 342b

 Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I get too excited whenever I get the chance to post before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 785 steps (because obviously, I've not left the house yet; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "Life Hangs On The Word Of God"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Are You @ The End Of Your Rope?' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "The Miracle Of Our Salvation" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHTEEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 153RD time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Usually nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip but happiness was then snoring soundly until 7:45am, when dearest dad silently and very thoughtfully walked along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again for the pot. :P

Sunday Post 342c

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total now stands @ 4674 (ha, I'm over 4.5 grand XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic for tonight's 'A Splash Of Heaven' and thirdly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's now just eight but fourthly and way most importantly I'm really still owed THIRTY-TWO MINUTES online after Aunty Nga and I have our once-weekly Facebook video chat!! Argh, what a dreadful end to an otherwise great day... >< *sigh* Righteo, just briefly, probable final, final events for tonight?

• Had breakfast, did a stinky unspeakable and plopped briefly online.
• Used loo once @ church then attended ESS. Stayed seated for worship; sang everything plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Reverend Samuel; his sermon topic was Rebuild And Revive.
• Used the loo for one tinkle after service and then Leonard tootled me off to Woka Warrigal to buy takeaway! I ordered the story fry chicken udon in teriyaki sauce with a cold HK-style milk while Leonard got himself a croissant from Reno. Think he's eight years younger than me.
• Phew I walked down Rochedale State High without stacking it. Ate my udon with a spoon coz I can't manage chopsticks anymore without the chopstick trainer and the cutlery set didn't come with a fork!
• Originally I'd sat @ the bench with a backrest adjacent to the bathrooms but then Charlie said Em let's walk around to the other side with a better view and held hands with Era. Lol I was gonna plonk my butt down on the first bench I saw but Charlie said no, sit on the next one coz this one's really dusty. Lol, I never knew boys noticed this kinda stuff! XD
• While people played touch, I played Jewel kingdom/whatever it's called and passed like four more levels!
• Fiona Mok started walking me back up to the parked cars; dad met her partway up.
• Back home, I asked PIG mum for some arvo tea; she left me one pear, two/three Pocky sticks and then went to the wedding reception with dad!
• I let Kim inside, showered and we had dinner @ Ho Lin Wah together!
• Toms: Annette's minding me 9-1. Presume PIG mum'll send us for walkies @ Underwood MarketPlace.
• Coming home for lunch with dad then seeing Aunty Anna for acupuncture and massage in the arvo. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ Aunty Anna. XD
• Will hopefully watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 153RD time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again, good morning again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 442 steps (because obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Jesus' Pursuit Of Joy'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Keep A Good Attitude'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Choose Wisely' and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's just six but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm still really owed ONE HOUR and TWO MINUTES online after Leonard gets me home from Rochedale State High!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am; 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* 
• Just after I finish that chat, PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad hasn't left for church yet) 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, bites my head off when I ask her please for a thin beanie and gleefully FORCES :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth but surprisingly doesn'r gleefully force poor Ela to hold the toothbrush, score!
• After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I washed and dried Era before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

Saturday Post 342b

 Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2405. Aww, nearly 2.5 grand; maybe I'll use the loo once more tonight and I'll pass 2.5 grand. XD Secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Glory Of A New Heart'. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

• After I finished watching the news, I use the loo for one tinkle and climb into the backseat of dad's 4WD. We're having our once-weekly dinner tonight since the parents are attending a wedding reception toms night! PIG mum's found Kim to mind me; Kim suggested how about we have dinner together @ Ho Lin Wah and then go see a movie together? Unfortunately, the horrid parents immediately said no, it's either one/the other. I chose the dinner out and instead asked may Kim and I get a bubble tea afterwards instead from the shop besides Ho Lin Wah? I'll text Kim and ask her? PIG mum immediately said no again to both; the second because I'm not allowed to contact kim outside of work hours. *sigh* 
• As usual, dinner was a very frugal affair: why dad insists on getting a two-person meal for three people and takes away one serve for his lunch toms continues to baffle me but for some reason he's still got the idea that I'm immensely fat? Suppose I'll haveta keep asking him every night will he take us out for dinner; he'd better not have forgotten how many meals he keeps saying he'll make up for ... but I'm looking forward to eating there with Kim toms night: hopefully we can really have the two-person meal for two people!
• Got home, used the loo for one more tinkle and returned online.
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that Leonard's gonna take me to lunch and sport afterwards! Obviously I'm too freaking disabled to participate in the sport but will remind myself not to play mobile games toms to save battery so I can play when peoples are playing sport! XD
• Going back to Ho Lin Wah for dinner with Kim afterwards; actually, she'll prolly haveta help with my shower since the parents are attending that wedding reception. Since the parents have said we won't have time for both dinner and movie I've chosen dinner but I'm really pissed that horrid PIG mum won't let us go next door and enjoy a bubble tea together afterwards. >< Maybe Kim will be more assenting toms night when I ask her?
• Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 342

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today i've been hard @ work plodding 1281 steps today; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Hope For The Worst of Sinners'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Seek God's Approval, Not People's" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Power Of A Name'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum awoke me with her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew she'd get very noisy one hour later!
• Like clockwork, @ 7:20am noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING back upstairs for her half day's work; that's my wakeup signal to use the pot :P again and after this second 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 rushes into my room to hit me with the eye goo before hurrying off for her half day's work. After she's dashed off, 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 dearest dad retucks me into bed, promises to stay quiet and reminds me that Annette's coming @ 8am to help me up, I cuddle Uber and snore happily, waking once more for the pot :p before Annette's arrival. She's instantly recognizable; despite not seeing her since last year I immediately recognise her laugh! XD

• After I get my fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :p for three tinkles and we catchup about each other. Annette's granddaughter's four years old now and she recently graduated from her acupuncture course!

• After we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Annette who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her last break this week.

• Teeth brushed, I drink a mug of water and sit over the loo proper. 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's cooked spam ham and eggs and Annette's the yummiest cooker of toast with butter that I've ever met; it's really crunchy! ^^ With breakfast I enjoyed one mug of white tea with two sugars~

• Breakfast munched, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Annette who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• I had one tinkle before Annette flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Annette rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's socks and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela. Then I just sat in the chair outside my room and waited while Annette cleaned the bathroom and closed the windows.

• Thanks to Annette who helped me with my seatbelt after I'd climbed into her passenger seat. Then she tootled me off to the Lung residence for Reverend Chris' 40th birthday party! 

• Very relieved that the Sun's shining really brightly today! Awesome Annette gave me a hand down the very steep driveway and I bid her bye @ the front door. Pastor Chris walked behind me downstairs and then pointed me outside - I've never been outside before!

• I sat @ the head of some long table in a chair with a backrest while the other seats were just stools. More people arrived and greetings were exchanged; I told Pastor Grace that I thought she looked like a chicken wrap coz she really was wearing some kinda wrap! XD Reverend Chris wandered over and I gave him his birthday card; he smirked @ the flabby forties remark. XD

• Aww, in typical Chris fashion, he had KFC delivered for his birthday bash. XD Not only that, there was also DIY bahn mi! Ingrid made me one and Daniel made me another. Did you know, Sarah's expecting: their first baby boy's due early December!

• Fi Mok gave me a hand around to the front yard when it was cake time and someone kindly got a chair for me. Everyone posed for happy snaps together and we sang the Happy Birthday song for Reverend Chris; Leo and I did the hiphips together afterwards! 

• Mr. Shakibaie kindly gave me a hand back to the table where I'd eaten lunch and someone kindly brought us over a little plastic cup of Chris' ice cream cake each; delicious! 

• Afterwards, Julz walked behind me, I headed inside and used the loo once. Thanks to Julz who lifted the loo lid for me.

• After washing and drying Era, I took a seat just beside the staircase. People started leaving; I asked Julz could she please gimme a lift home? Julz replied sure; lemme bring my car closer first coz I've parked quite far away.

• Thanks to julz and Fiona who pushed me up the Lungs' steep driveway together; once up, I climbed into the passenger seat and buckled my seatbelt without problem.

• Julz dropped me back home, I headed into living room, sat down @ the gobbling :p table and took off my bag. Thought he'd gimme some arvo tea but nope, just a cup of water. I couldn't be bothered asking for any food so after drinking the water I used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.

• It's only just past 5pm but amazingly, PIG mum's already awake and downstairs!

• Toms: just church, nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that afterwards it's the once-monthly lunch together and sports social; Leonard's said he'll count me in for lunch, gimme a lift there and drop me back off home afterwards!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,

• After watching the news for the 151ST time, I bashed out my next GCCW homework! Lol, I'm not even sure when the next meeting is; the bookmark's too faded! XD
• When the parents summoned me to dinner I used the loo for one tinkle before I 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 wombok, lotsa some other vegetable I've since forgotten, one fish ball and two/three small slices of chicken.
• Dinner was washed down with one mug of water; after taking the cup to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• 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: Nisha's coming @ like 9am to help me up, after I munch breakfast I'm taking a shower because then she's taking me to the Lung residence for Reverend Chris' 40th birthday bash! Still looking for a ride home, actually ...
• Depending on what time it ends, I'm not sure will dad take me to play ping pong with him @ church toms?
• Ooh must remember to write Reverend Chris the 40th birthday card that I got him!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,

Friday Post 342

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3195 steps (ha, I'm over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Let Goods And Kindred Go'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Feed Your Mind Good Stuff'; fourthly, TWFT topic's "The Story Isn't Over" fifthly, the actual spam count for the weekend's actually eighteen and sixthly, the spam count for the week's thirty-nine. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:30am, and after one pot :P 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 hourly after the initial morning pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly all the way until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking for another pot :P trip.
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, PIG mum comes and hits me with the eye goo coz Peggy's coming and taking me to the NAB for physio @ 8am. After she gets here, she stands @ the door, says good morning and asks fifteen more minutes? Since Uber's not keeping me company currently (he sits elsewhere when I've got my monthlies lest I accidentally stain him) I give Peggy the thumbs up before showing her the 'shoo' motion. Peggy just smirks and wisely retreats. XD
• When she comes back, I use the pot :P for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's squirted me some toothpaste; Ela enjoyed her second consecutive morning break~ Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, ask Peggy please to remove the pull-up pants, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier (flaky) bird blood (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Peggy who turns on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure; over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? 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 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. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Peggy's passenger seat and she tootles me off to the NAB for physio. Thanks to her who kindly helps me with my seatbelt both ways; she even turns her radio (B105) and tells me to increase the mobile volume when I start playing Jewel Hunters! I only pass one level during the drive there, though. XD
• I use the loo once before entering the NAB; aiya, like I told PIG mum so, today's my last day with Georgie and I forgot to bring her chocolate! ><"
• Physio today: Stepping for Erf, left weightshifting, four rounds clock yourself with colour and two with half clock, eighteen laps long hallway walking. Georgie even gave me a Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate bar before I left; once back inside Peggy's car after another loo trip, I immediately asked her to open the chocolate for me; chances are PIG mum wouldn't have lemme eat it all had I brought it home. XD
• Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, we headed out to the gobbling :P table where Peggy immediately made me one mug of white tea with two sugars then for lunch I munched a yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie buttered, with one slice of cheese and cut into two rectangles! While she went and cleaned the bathroom, I kept playing Jewel Heroes; today I've passed six levels!
• PIG mum arrived home @ 2pm and signed Peggy off with my thanks and byes. She's not back next Friday coz I'm going on our small group retreat!
• Tiff came and gave Ela one hour of functional hand exercises. Next fortnight we're making some kinda potato bake?
• Once I've used up my two most important hours of the day, I'll ask PIG mum for some arvo tea and will read till 5:50, when I'll visit the loo for two tinkles and then watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 151ST time!
• Toms: getting my weekly sleep-in till 10am, when Nisha minds me till 2pm. Will shower with her before she leaves since I don't get 4-6pm support anymore.
• Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea with two sugars and fingers crossed for the chance to read for three hours toms! Yay I've almost finished the unpleasant book club novel, phew!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 342c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2139. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I boot the computer up while Karina cleans the bathroom.
• At 3:30pm I sign her off with my thanks and byes.
• When PIG mum comes home she feeds me one yummy pear, two/three chocolate Pocky sticks and one warm mug of the powdered HK-style milk tea Pastor FGrace brought me before I smuggle my mobile into the loo and do another stinky unspeakable.
• Plopped online and watched the 6pm news bulletin for the 150TH time! That was my record last year; looks like I'll beat it this year!
• After dinner dad demanded I play table tennis with him for twenty minutes. Was seated so didn't protest. Wondering about the disabled league ... there are seated categories.
• Used loo for one tinkle and had the usual dinner with the parents. Rice tonight, lotsa icky bitter vegetable, lotsa soup carrot and one chicken drumstick.
• Drank soup, took bowl to sink and returned online. Uncle Colbert and Aunty Winnie came over presumably to collect their mail; they've just returned from Canada attending a family wedding!
• Used loo once more for one tinkle @ 9pm.
• It's ice cream night tonight; yay! Like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Peggy's minding me 8-1/2 and taking me to the NAB for two hours. Must remember to bring chocolate; it's week five for this current block and there's only one block left!
• Tiff's giving me an OT session from 2-3.
• Wonder if I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 151ST time?
• Might watch the first grand final qualifier: Cowboys vs. Rabbitohs! Don't mind who wins~
• Righteo,. hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 342b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2024 (ha, I'm just over two grand XD) and secondly, joni's devotional topic's 'The Source Of Our Courage' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIVE MINUTES online after I visit the bathroom once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Even Pat got tired of Ken's rambling; @ one stage she leaned forward and whispered, "When's morning tea?" Finally, @ 11:30am I raised Era and interrupted Ken, asking can we break for morning tea yet? There's only thirty minutes left, we've not had morning tea yet and I wanna share my story; I've written a good one day! Break time, finally~ XD
• Jane helped me once to the bathroom; I managed easy inside by myself since there was a handrail! When we were headed back outside Jane explained that the rail had been installed for her own mum when she'd come back to live with them years ago.
• Morning tea was so fancy, it needed it's own photo! PIG mum's delicious mochi was very-well received and I also had two slices of cake!
• Only morning tea went for too long! XD At 11:50am I signalled Ken and asked when can I read my homework? I've written a really good one today! I read it minus Stan, Lisa and her cameraman friend because Stan was giving them a tour of his house! George said I dropped two f-bombs and held out the imaginary swear jar; I retorted that he'd dropped two this meeting so we'll call it even, okay? XD Pat said she liked how I still managed to inject some humour into a very bleak situation.
• Best of all, I received a new friend from Happy! Presume PIG mum hasn't entered my room; she's not met him yet. XD
• Karina arrived early to pick me up and heard me read my story! After she helped me once more to the bathroom she tootled us off to Momo's for lunch!
• Just as we entered, we bumped into Mikey and Dr. Lee! They said sit with us; this is a four-person table but we're only two.
• I got a half-chicken with honey soy while Karina had like teriyaki chicken with rice. Mikey was awesome and shouted both Karina and me!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 432

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1660 steps (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Ammunition Against Anxiety'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Belong To God' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'People Who Need People' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 150TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, for the first time in five days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until6:20am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep again since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy one hour later!
• Exactly sixty minutes later, I'm re-awakened for another pot :P trip when PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs for another pot :P trip. Soon, she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and also discovers that my monthlies have just arrived.
• When Karina arrives, she knocks, says good morning and fifteen more minutes? When I use Uber to nod very vigorously @ her she laughs and bids Uber good morning to Uber too; originally she'd only said good morning Emily. XD
• When Karina comes back I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who squirted me some toothpaste. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle and come outside when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is one bowl of Minus :P with one slice of buttered toast spread with strawberry jam, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, 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 breakfast, 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. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Karina's passenger seat. Thanks muchly to her who helps me with my seatbelt all day. Karina tootles me off to the Stan's for GCCW! I'm actually the first to arrive and pick an armchair to plonk my butt in (since for me, it's always safety first). When Stan tells me I'm stolen Ken's chair, I cheekily reply that should Ken want he can pick me up and move me to another chair but otherwise I'm staying put. XD
• Eight people turned up today; Lisa even brought along a male friend that was filming this huge teddy! Not only that, but Happy brought me a NEW one! :D
• Lol, Ken was his usual yappy self; twice Pat muttered to me, "Is it almost morning tea time yet?? I'm hungry! I'd set an alarm for 11am; when my mobile read 11am I waved my arm, interrupted Ken's monologue and said "It's 11am. Time to observe a minute's silence for the late Queen Elizabeth." Ken said dismissively, "Yeah, you do that" and just continued talking! XD Well, I thanked Queen Elizabeth II for her loyal years of service, hoped she had been reunited in heaven with Prince Phillip now and trusted that Charles would do a good job as King. 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 150TH time: uhlmann, Falk, Blaxland, Colahan, Woods, Rawlings, Wharton, Tigani, Albanese, Godfrey, Putin (heard), Biden, Volodmymr (first name), Zelensky, Sergey (first name), Markhov, Crisafulli, Bavas, Marlow, Millward, Gaudion, Bates, Yvette (first name, heard), D'Ath (heard), Lawton, Alderson Trump, Piotrowski, Farmham, Fagan (heard), Calcutt, Creedon, Carlyon, Landry Hamblin, Meyer, Guthrie, Mladonic, Payten, Cleary, Gottlieb, Federer, McAlpine and Thurston. 1AUD = Wally Lewis read the sports report and Garry Youngberry read the weather report from Surfers Pradise.

Wednesday Post 437b

 Heylo again, good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 6803. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After munching some arvo tea (fruit, two/three sticks of Pocky and some warm drink), I went and took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20%  of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was finished after  just 11% but happily leaned fully against the right side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before 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 (remember, she seriously only helps with the straps; I'm the one doing the leg lifting, holding leg in place while she positions AFO under leg, placing leg down into brace) and both laces needed tying.
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• After drying the loo lid, I sit for one tinkle, dry inside both ears, wash and dry Era then return online to complete my GCCW homework.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy snowpeas from Uncle Simon, lotsa yummy wombok and two/three small slices of tasty chicken.
• Drank soup, took bowl to sink and returned online.
• used loo once more @ 9pm.
• Toms: it's the one-off national day of mourning public holiday for Queen Elizabeth II! The parents aren't working and neither is the library open but Karina's gonna help me up @ 7:30am and then take me to GCCW @ Stan's!
• We're gonna have lunch @ Momo's coz like ALL the HK-style cafes are shut toms!
• Karina will see me home and showered before leaving @ 3:30pm.
• No Thursday night football now it's finals time ... wonder will dad take us out for dinner instead?
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 437

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 6612 steps (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Not Nearly Hedonistic Enough; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'God Has Placed You Where He Wants You'; fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Joyful In Hope' and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Living Water' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called one @ 12:45am last night; I also used the pot :P again around 6:15am when dearest dad very thoughtfully walked along the hallway and pulled the bathroom door shut, 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* 
• 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 afterwards, PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and not long after that, she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me extremely 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.
• PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the (less yummy) sticky bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly smeared 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*

• This morning, PIG mum tootles us down to the Warrigal Square pharmacy and asks the pharmacist to put into a Webster pack all the drugs :P I'll be taking with me to our small group retreat. Back home, I boot the computer up and start composing my GCCW homework until summoned for lunch, which is one tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese and one mug of Chinese tea. Kim arrives @ midday to take me to the NAB for physio and mother yaps @ her  until 12:30pm before letting us leave.
• Physio today: Cone work for Ela, reaching forward and down, left weightshifting, twenty sit-to-stands and 1.5 laps walking great court. Even better, Sonia wrote an IOU for me: next Wednesday, she's shouting hot chocolate!
• Only we got stuck in DREADFUL traffic coming back! Inching along Coronation Drive, I'd hoped once we merged onto the M1 the traffic would flow smoothly, but nope: by the time we got home 'twas Kim's time to leave.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 436c

One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 3542. Ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Thanks also to Hanmnah who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious pork salad roll and one mug of something warm. @ 2pm I signed Hannah off with my thanks and byes; she's back same time next week.
• Lunch finished, I took my plate over to the sink, washed Era (coz PIG mum said she was dirty), used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the computer for my most important two hours of the day online.
• Once that was up, I headed over to the gobbling :P table, asked PIG mum please for some arvo tea and read the scary book club novel for one hour, reaching pg. 333 @ 4:58pm and reaching pg. 350 @ 4:58pm.
• After using the loo I was gonna sit @ the computer and watch the news but dad demanded I watch from the TV. When he took my mobile away I groused how could I record everything I like to?? He gave me a notebook and a pen but then I grumbled I'd haveta waste time transferring my notes and dad *finally* gave my mobile back. All the interesting surnames I saw: Greenbank, Sydes , Bavas, Yvette (first name), D'Ath, Hill, Bleijie, Shannah (first name), Blackburn, Gill, Khoury, Chalmers, Zelensky (heard), Taumololo, Dobbin, Oates, Carrigan, Haas, Reynolds, Buddy (first name), Langerak, Heinke and Uhlmann. Wally Lewis read the sports report and Chris Kohler read the finance report; 1AUD =67.19YSc. $17.6 for 1L unleaded. Garry Youngberry read the weather report from Kangaroo Point. Brisbane was 13-28 today. Mt. Gravatt tomorrow:14-23. Sunrise 5:39am sunset 5:45pm
• I returned online until summoned for dinner.
• After one loo trip, dinner was rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa some third vegetable I've since forgotten and two/three strips of yummy chicken. I waited until after drinking my soup before asking dad had he made my half a slice of birthday cake yet? Dad replies return online; I'll call you over when PIG mum gets home. PIG mum got home and I was summoned for my half birthday celebration! Aww, isn't my dad a sweetheart? From somewhere he'd produced a chocolate muffin for us to share!
• Aww isn't my dad the sweetest? From somewhere he'd found a chocolate muffin! Dad groused I'd better not start wanting monthly celebrations but I reassured him only babies get that.
• My half birthday celebration finished, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely back online, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: presuming PIG mum'll help me up since she says we're gonna make sth for me to take to Stan's for GCCW for morning tea come Thursday!
• Not seeing Ray for massage and acupuncture toms coz he's taken his family to the coast for term break three holiday!
•  Think it's Kim coming to take me to the NAB for two hours physio. She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 5pm.
• I've gotta compose my GCCW homework! May skip watching the 6pm bulletin then.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 436b

 Heylo and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 3429 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-ONE MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• 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 for the pot :P once more shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Shjortly afterwards, when she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo, I tell her how pissed with myself I'm feeling coz I didnb't manage another good night's sleep despite hitting the sack later than usual because I was watching the Queenm's funeral; PIG mum replied it's no big deal; you were prolly feeling emotional about the Queen. Fair enough.
• When Hannah announces her arrival @ 9am, PIG mum lets her in. Hannah knocks, opens the door, says good morning, fifteen more minutes ... and wisely retreats when Uber nods @ her, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• When she comes back, I swing myself over to the pot :P for three more tinkles, we chat about our week since we last saw each other, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, where Ela enjoys another break from holding the toothbrush. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle and come out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Ive already forgotten which cereal I had for breakfast today. XD But 'twas with a slice of lightly buttered and jammed toast coz we'd run outta avocados, 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 me off to Calamvale Central for walkies and grocery shopping. Our first stop's Woolies before we head into the Mega Discount Fruit Mart for one bag of avocados. Our last stop's the bakery for my crackling pork salad roll; the owner aunty with the better English took and made my pork roll; the uncle was @ the back doing sth but we caught each other's eyes and waved; I also called thanks uncle bye when leaving and he calls back thanks cya next week.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
