• After publishing the previous post, I read and shared some Facebook memories.

• But I'm planning to watch the Melbourne Cup! It's run @ 3pm ... think I'll be @ APO getting my AFO adjusted; must remember to ask Hannah to charge it for me while I'm showing and I'll try watch it on 10 Play @ 3pm? Unless APO has a TV somewhere ...

 Heylo again and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4821 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Dearest dad returns home for lunch too; he Whatsapp videochats 4th Aunty, who's currently isolating with COVID and her voice has gone all raspy ...
• After lunch PIG mum tootles me off to see Aunty Anna for some acupuncture and massage; I do well to stay awake even though her soporific voice yaps incessantly @ Aunty Anna. XD
• Back home, Meredith arrives same time as we get home! Yup she's the snake lady who's just one month younger than me!
• So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Meredith who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. But Meredith shared some very sad news with me: her mum recently passed away with ovarian cancer. 'Twas very quick; she got diagnosed and three weeks later she had passed.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted arvo tea was one yummy banana and one mug of peppermint tea. Happiness was reading for one hour: today I reached pg. 444 @ 5:03pm and pg. 450 @ 5:11pm.
• Used loo for two more tinkles @ 5:55pm and then signed Meredith off with my thanks and byes. She's got a fluffy cat now who HATES her two snakes!
• Watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 176TH time. All the interesting surnames I saw: Griffin, Cavallaro, Arvier, Jacovic, Albanese, Lehrmann, Croucher, Dutton, Reeve, Meyer, Fegan, Vresta (first nme), Rawlings, Sinclair, Martina (first name), Heinke, Greer, Carnovale, Connell, Jardim, Alpins,Thorton, Kerrin (first name), McEvoy, AmounVallmuur, Hill, Vheika, Rinehart (heard), Millward, Huni, Justis (first name, heard), Parnell, Khawaja and Partridge. 64.22USc = 1AUD. Wally Lewis read the sports report and  Garry Youngberry read the weather report from Southbank. Brisbane was 18-28 today. Mt. Gravatt toms: 20-24 Sunrise 4:57am Sunset 6:07pm
• When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa 'gul gei' (say that in Canto) and a little of PIG mum's tomato mince.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 
• Righteo, hopefully bbl 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.  ^^

Monday Post 437

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4583 steps (ha, I'm over 4.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Danger Of Drifting'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Never Be Part Of A Clique'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Opportunities To Shine' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Skipping Like Calves' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTEEN MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Huh, you'd think after scoring an awesome night's sleep on Saturday I was on track to score another awesome week's sleep but no, my idiot bladder poked me awake @ 12:45am and demanded I use the pot :P for her. >< XD *sigh*
• Nature calls again @ 6:10am, when I'm woken by dearest dad pulling the bathroom door shut after silently and very thoughtfully walking silently along the hallway. 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* 
• Usually nature calls hourly after the initial pot :P trip but happiness was sleeping soundly until dearest dad again very thoughtfully walks silently along the hallway and unpops 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, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, 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. 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 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.
• After getting myself a spoon (13th time this year), breakfast was one bowl of Coco Pops cross Weet-Bix cross Minus XD, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

•  After breakfast, I 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!

• That done, PIG mum tootles me off to APO to get my new AFO, second time lucky! Of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, we listened to 97.3FM all day and today, Era helped Ela stretch for fifty-five minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm 250 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also helped Ela rub her fingers for about five minutes.
• Aww today Peter's wife didn't offer me a cuppa but I walked out into reception where she was seated to have a looksee @ her earrings after Peter said she got new ones to try out my new AFO and EWW she's wearing a STRING of BLOODY EYEBALLS!! O_O XD I fingered them, told her they were disgusting and to expect an irate phone call from me toms should they gimme nightmares. XD
• PIG mum tootled us home afterwards; I played with my mobile until PIG mum ordered me to make myself a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch. I - bbl!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 437c

 Good evening again and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 4838 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-ONE minutes online after I videochat with Aunty Nga!! *sigh* But just briefly, final, final  events for tonight?

• Breakfast finished, I do a stinky unspeakable and then PIG mum tootles us off to church.
• For Bible study, seven students attended today and Uncle William taught from Matthew 6:11.
• Grabbed a packet of bikkies for morning tea, used loo for one tinkle then hauled myself upstairs for ESS.
• Stay seated for worship and sing everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Reverend Chris with his final sermon from his Anarchy series and there was communion afterwardfs.
• Peter Pie drove Dr. Lee and me to Woka Warrigal for lunch with eight other people! I had the sweetcorn fish fillet with rice and a cold HK-style milk tea~
• Mel walked behind me to the loo back @ church and kindly lifted the toilet lid for me before I took a seat on the most left @ the very front.
• Crikey the meeting was heated ... also, all the HK-style milk tea rushed down into my bladder and I needed one extra toilet trip @ 4:05pm. XD
• Back home, I had to let PIG mum immediately force poor Ela to feed me some fruit before I drank one mug of peppermint tea.
• Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I plopped briefly online until the parents called dinnertime.
• After using the loo for one more tinkle, I climbed into the backseat of the 4WD and dad tootled us off to Ho Lin Wah for dinner.
• A two person meal for three people always means I'll get piss little, but hey. Besides, we bumped into Tiff! Lol luckily I recognised her. XD
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then plopped back online before using the loo for one more tinkle @ 9am.
• Toms: seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture toms morning. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD Hopefully I'll stay awake despite her soporific voice because it's only morning!
• Will doubtless come back home for lunch with dearest dad~
• Back to APO again toms arvo and hopefully getting my new AFO!
• Dunno who's minding me from 4-6pm yet ... must find out.
• But hopefully I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 176TH time!
• Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 4737 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-THREE MINUTES online after I videochat with Aunty Nga!! >< Ah, what a crummy way to end an otherwise good day ... *sigh* Righteo, just briefly, probable final, final events for tonight?

• At 7:20am I'm woken for another pot :P trip when PIG mum doe her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and 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 shoelaces, I brush teeth, use loo for one tinkle and then head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, which isn't my usual bowl of Frosties but a mix between Minus :P and Weet-Bix?
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 437

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4072 steps (ha, I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!

Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum woke me with her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep immediately since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 436c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3663. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post I just played Jewel Hunter for twenty minutes coz I'd already exceeded the PISSY two hour time limit that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to.
• At 9pm, I walked myself once 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: just church, definitely nothing special. Have just asked the Lungs that since the weather's looking good toms, are we gonna have the belated lunch together and sports social that got cancelled last due to bad weather? That'd sure beat having a pissy little Unhappy Meal with dad for lunch @ Maccas!
• Braced for a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum but dad had better take us to eat CHINESE food toms night and gimme ONE bowl of rice!!
• Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 436b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3539 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Fighting Fire With Fire'. Righteo, just briefly, continuing Saturday's events?

• We get me kitted, I brush teeth, do a stinky unspeakable and head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. While enjoying my weekly sandwich of ham and eggs (thanks to Annette who cooked the bread yummy and added one slice of cheese for me) I read for thirty minutes, reaching pg. 100 @ 10:59am.Annette tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking outside the pearl milk tea shop; it's called sth weird like Wushiland Soba.
• Grabbing a trolley for us, we bought bread and two boxes of facial tissues from Woolies and then I bought myself a tempura vegie roll from the revamped sushi shop.
• Got home and took 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.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, Annette made me another mug of white tea and reheated the rice leftovers dad had left her for my lunch. Unsure why she added sesame sauce and not oyster sauce, but it tasted great! I kept reading, reaching pg. 125 @ 1:21pm.
• When the parents returned from the markets, I went once more to the loo @ 1:55pm for two tinkles.
• For some reason, dad demanded I play ping pong with him for fifty minutes? Didn't matter; I was seated and could fully concentrate.
• Had my sushi roll for arvo tea and kept reading - score I got to read for three hours today! ^^
• Used loo and watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 175TH time.
• Was pissed that dad wouldn't take us out for dinner; I still remember that he owes us FOUR dinners out! I wish he'd lemme know how much weight he wants me to lose and I'll just starve myself until I get down there. >< But definitely singing myself to sleep tonight; SCREW counting! *sigh*
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one more loo trip 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!

Saturday Post 436

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3083 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Radical Recompense; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Eight Principles To Live By' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'When Weakness Is Strength' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 176TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, my idiot bladder only lemme achieve one more week of consecutive awesome sleeps (my 11th) before interrupting @ 12:15am and demanding that I use the pot :P for her. XD
• Nature called again around 6:10am, when dearest dad walked very considerately silently along the hallway and pulled the bathroom door shut; 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* 
• Wonder why PIG mum needed to go a-THUMPING noisily around upstairs @ 7:20am and wake me, even though she wasn't working today? Anyways, after another pot :P trip 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*
• Shortly before 10am, PIG mum lets herself into my room and hits me with the eye goo, also informing me that Annettte's coming today, not Nisha.
• When Annette arrives, she knocks, says good morning and fifteen more minutes? Pe nods @ her and she wisely removes herself, even though Pear's the wrong figure to give Bear Bums. XD
• Once I've counted down my fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :P and announce to Annette that I'm coming, who responds promptly that she's coming. 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 436

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding  steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Possible With God'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Your Stage And Your Standing'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'For The Sake Of The Gospel'; fifthly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's actually seven and sixthly, the spam count for the week's fifteen but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 175TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 11TH time this year I've scored one whole consecutive weeks of awesome sleeps!! :D :D 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* 
• Then Pearl and I snored soundly together until PIG mum began her usual daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. After I use the pot :P again, she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside to await Peggy's arrival.
• After PIG mum lets Peggy in, Peggy knocks, says good morning and fifteen more minutes? Pearl nods @ her and she leaves but she comes back like twenty seconds too early; I just ignore her for like another twenty seconds while she tries to pull all my blankets away. Her plan backfires though, since it's not Winter anymore! I'm not cold and just curl up and continue ignoring her. XD
• I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who squirts some toothpaste for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then come out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is three Weet-Bix with a streak of honey on each with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly smeared with avocado and also 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*
• 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 I wash and dry Era, I climb into Peggy's passenger seat, she kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt and then tootles me off to UQ for my final NAB session of the year!

Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Like clockwork, exactly one hour later noisy PIG mum going a-THUMPING around upstairs awakens me for another pot :P trip; 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* 
• Shortly afterwards, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo, after which she returns outside to await Karina's arrival @ 7:30am. Once she's inside, Katrina knocks, says good morning, fifteen more minutes and wisely leaves when Pearl nods @  her although I've not confessed to Karina yet that since s\hr's a pearl milk tea he doesn't actually have a bum per se. 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. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast.
• For breakfast, I munch one bowl of yummy Minus XD, 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 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 front seat and she tootles me off to the Garbo library for GCCW! Thanks to Karina who kindly helps me with my seatbelt both ways.

• Om arrival, I use the loo for one tinkle then sit outside @ the computers until Ken arrives and gets the key for the meeting room.

• Only eight people attended today; actually, six because one was Stan's wife and the other was Ken's wife! Luckily Pat came too and she accompanied me to the loo @ morning tea break~

• Homework's strange: write only 100 words about anything?

• After one more loo trip Karina tootled me home (dad was home doing gardening) and once Fiona arrived with Korean fried chicken, we tucked in! Like a true mother; she ensured I ate some greens. I complied only because the leaves included cheese and she didn't try feed me any tomatoes (Julia's pet hate). Besides, I've heard that tomatoes are only good for you after you cook them and let the good juices run out? Over lunch we chatted about Helen her sister being a policewoman and the creation vs. evolution theory. She also said Sakuraya has gone and is now like some bar! I told her to take me there for food soon. XD

• When she left, I walked her out and then took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also 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 booted up the computer while Karina cleaned the bathroom. Then I headed over to the gobbling :P table and signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next week.

• I just played Jewel Hereos until both parents arrived home, dad from swimming and mother from goodness knows what. PIG mum tossed me one yummy banana for arvo tea and I drank one mug of peppermint tea before returning online.

• At 5:50pm I used the loo once more for two tinkles and then watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 174TH time.

• Toms: Peggy's minding me 8-2 and taking me to my final NAB physio session of the year! Hopefully I can take one more hike of the Great Court and take a photo with that big awesome building in the background!

• She'll see me home and showered; after she leaves Tiff's coming and giving Ela one hour's worth of unpractical hand exercises.

• Fingers crossed I can read for one hour after she leaves and get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the - bbl!

• Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum awoke me with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 6:20am; after one loo trip (I heard dearest dad hanging out the washing outside) I fell back asleep immediately since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 436c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ exactly 4400 but secondly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-NINE MINUTES online if I've gotta let PIG mum boot me off to bed @ 9:45pm!! But just very briefly, final, final events for tonight?

• Had breakfast, did stinky unspeakable and saw Ray for some acupuncture and massage. PIG mum tapped @ him so much her soporific voice sent me to sleep! XD
• Made myself a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese and cut it into two triangles for lunch.
• Kim minded me from midday till 5pm.
• NAB physio today: 180 sit-to-stands, fourteen laps long hallway walking and tenting for Ela. Yes, 180's my new record and I'm totally buggered now ...
• Got home and showered half fast - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 11% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one juicy pear, one warm mug of sth and two chocolate Pocky sticks. Signed Kim off with my thanks and byes @ 5; unsure when she's back again.
• Watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 173RD time. All the interesting surnames I saw: Croucher, Dutton, Albanese, MacDougal, Meyer (heard), Hunter, Bailee, Chalmers, Butler, Ford, Malkya (first name), Kamil (heard), Radhi, Cavallaro, Koczcar, Hood, Kramer, Beaumont, Rawlings, Bosscher, Arvier, Palaszczuk, Boulton, Yvette (first name), D’Ath, Dugan, Burrows, Millward, House (heard), Howes, Sunak, Rishi (first name),  Alred, Cruse (heard), Zulo (heard), Redmayne, Malan, Stokes, Stoinis,Finch Cheika, Briony (first name), Hill, Gardiner, Plant, Heinke, CotterTruss (heard), Woodward, Burns (heard) and Samaan. 64.77USc = 1AUD.

• Used loo for one tinkle, ate dinner, drank soup, took bowl to sink and returned online.
• Used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
• Toms: Karina's coming @ 7:30am and taking me to GCCW!
• Even more excitingly, Fi's buying us Korean fried chicken and coming over for lunch!
• Wonder if I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 174TH time?
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 436b

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4297 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TEN MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Usually, nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly 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, Pearl 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 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. ^^

Wednesday Post 436

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4155 steps (sweet I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Great Missionary Hope'; thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Walk On'; fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Help For Your Marriage' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Eyes ... Blind/Open' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-SIX online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5th straight consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past 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* 
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 435

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3934 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Christ Is Like Sunlight'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Building Good Relationships' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Trusting God's Foresight". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until dad woke me when he thoughtfully and silent walked along the hallway and pulled shut the bathroom door; after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Usually nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip, but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully silently walked down the hallway and unpopped the lock @ 7:45am before waking again for another pot :P trip.
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, saves Pearl from the floor (the silly sod had rolled outta bed beyond my reach even before I'd fallen asleep; I was gonna call upstairs and ask PIG mum to please retrieve for me but Bluetooth advised, no, don't call her else she'll blame you toms that she didn't get a good sleep last night. Don't worry, I'll shine brighter than usual so you won't feel afraid even if you do wake up. XD) and leaves for his hard day's work, we cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Shortly afterwards, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Hannah's arrival.
• After PIG mum lets Hannah inside @ 9am, Hannah knocks, pushes the door open, says good morning and fifteen more minutes. Pearl nods @ her and she obediently vanishes. XD When she comes back, I use the pot :P for three more tinkles, we share about how our past week has been, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth while Hannah makes my bed for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for 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 bowlful of yummy Minus :P with 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, 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 climb into Hannah's tank and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central.
• Parking outside the bakery, I first hike the entire length of Calamvale Central to get my fifteen-dollar haircut. 
• Then it's to the Discount Fruit Market for nashi pears, before we duck into Woolies and buy a box of tissues, along with other groceries.
• Happiness was sitting outside Woolies and playing Jewel Hereos while Hannah bought more groceries and then bought three sushi rolls for lunch - she even shared a small mouthful of calamari sushi with me! - and I felt successful coz I've passed five more levels today.
• Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. 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 only after 6%, but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling Hannah back.
• After I flipped the nice hot water off, I got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Hannah 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, lunch was my delicious crackling pork salad roll plus one mug of yummy peppermint tea. 
• Lunch finished, I did another stinky unspeakable before popping online. PIG mum had signed Hannah off and shooed her away while I was still in the bathroom; she's back same time next week.
• Once I've used up the most important hours of my day I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, ask PIG mum for some arvo tea and start reading the Jodi Picoult novel Hannah found for me!
• Someone new's taking me to Toastmasters tonight; hope she's nice!
• Toms: seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture in the morning. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
• Can't remember who's taking me to the NAB for my second-last session for the year ... Kim? Must remember to write Mr. Jig-Air's 30th birthday card and give it to Mrs. Hoppie and ask her to give it to himon his birthday!
• Haveta remember to complete GCCW homework too!
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 435d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 5897. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I continued reading and sharing my Facebook Memories.
• At 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo 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's sending me to get a cheap haircut from Calamvale Central; hopefully she'll lemme buy a pork salad roll for lunch too!

Monday Post 435c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 5782 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Rejoicing In Insults' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed SIX MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing events for today?

• Afterwards, I sat down for a little plastic cup of water and then PIG mum tootles me home. When she's driving along Oakleaf St. CODA suddenly rings and Michelle asks where are we coz Angelica's been waiting outside your door since 3pm! PIG mum replies well her shift doesn't usually start until 3:30pm but we're only two streets away.
• Once back home I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Angelica who rinses out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I head out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, which is one yummy juicy pear and one mug of some infusion. Angelica massages Ela and I play Jewel Hereos, passing another four levels! Stuck on a hard one now, prolly till the rest of the year. XD
• Five minutes before Angelica leaves, I use the loo once more for two tinkles. PIG mum signs Angelica off and shoes her away before I'm off the loo, so after washing and drying Era I walk myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 172ND time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
• When the parents summoned me to dinner I used the loo for one tinkle and walk 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.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa little bok choy, lotsa soup carrot, some yummy black fungus, one slice of yummy chicken and two little pork bones that I sucked the meat off that had edible tendons!
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after taking the soup to the kitchen I 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, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!

Monday Post 435b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 5435 (sweet, I'm more than half a normal person today XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-SIX MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 172ND time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• Nature usually 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 door before waking again for the pot. :P
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and promises to try his hardest to come home for lunch, Pearl and I happily snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back and finishes 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. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for 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.
• After getting myself a spoon, breakfast is one bowl of the less-yummy (sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) lightly sprinkled with some Coco Pops, 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, 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.

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 the QE2 to visit Uncle Slam's mum. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, we listen to 97.3FM almost all day (but for the final trip home PIG mum switched to her mix of Canto pop) and today, Era helped Ela stretch for fifty minutes before Ela opened and closed her palm about 300 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also helped rub Ela's fingers for three minutes.
• Lol, PIG mum found a disabled park but 'twas @ the very end of the road? When we finally entered the building, I first sat down and PIG mum whacked a facemask on me. Then we had to catch the elevator up and walk down one hallway to find Uncle Slam's mum's room.
• She was asleep when we first arrived; PIG mum lemme sit in her wheelie walker and sat around the other side of the bed herself. I was nervous she'd sleep all morning and PIG mum would make me leave but thankfully she woke up! Seeing she was awake, PIG mum leaned forward and told her slowly and clearly that she'd brought me to visit her. Era was resting on her blanket; I felt very loved when she immediately brought her hands from out under the blanket and started looking for my hands! Era touched her hand and she immediately turned the hand around to hold mine; she's only got a very weak grip strength but that's to be expected from an old lady in palliative care!
• Suddenly her lips start moving but I can't hear any sound; mother immediately bends her ear towards Uncle Slam's mum's mouth and hears her ask quietly for water because she's thirsty! While PIG mum busies herself with pouring her a cup of water, I lean forward and quickly and quietly tell granny that if it's her time to go to heaven and be with uncle that's fine; we'll look after Uncle Slam.
• PIG mum says let's pray for granny before we leave. And good timing, just as we're taking our leave, Uncle Slam's sister and her husband arrive to keep granny company! Good, she won't haveta be alone~
• PIG mum tootles us home for lunch, which is a bowl of the leftover pasta I'd made with Tiff last Friday and one mug of Chinese tea. Dearest dad comes home for lunch and holds a Whatsapp videochat with 4th Aunty; aiya, Yau Hin's somehow caught himself COVID and they ALL haveta isolate for one week! o_O Thankfully his fever broke today, though, after running a temperature for the past two days.
• I boot up the computer, use the loo for one more tinkle @ 1:40pm and then climb back into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD; she tootles me off to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture.
• When I enter, Aunty Anna offers to do ear candling for me! I decline for now, saying lemme do some research first and I'll turn the offer down should she offer again; I know Wikipedia's only good for background information but it says ear candling's both dangerous and ineffective! o_O
• I lie facedown and get some massage and acupuncture from Aunty Anna. Lol, PIG mum's incessant yapping's boring enough to send me asleep again but thankfully I didn't snore this time! XD
• Afterwards, I sat down for a little plastic cup of water and then PIG mum tootles me home. When she's driving along Oakleaf St. CODA suddenly rings and Michelle asks where are we - bbl!
  
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 172ND time: Albanese, Croucher, Gallagher, Lambie, Arvier, Palaszczuk, Thorpe, Heinke, Kreig, Luai, Fagan (heard),  Cheika (heard), Naraz, Millward, Last, Kimba (first name), Lehrmann, Aldon Sinclair, Gibson, Mortimer, Loupos, Rahm,  Wyatt, Higgins (heard), Cavallaro, Licina, Keller (heard), Sunac (heard), Arkle, Biden (heard), Truss (heard), Mordant, Cowley, Moses (heard), Keary (heard), Geran, Brady, Fegan, Virat (first name), heard), Kohli and Rawlings.  63.21USc = 1AUD.

Monday Post 437

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4072 steps (ha, I'm just over four grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "God's Final, Decisive Word'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Night-Time Experiences (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Fleeing From Turkeys' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTY MINUTES online after I get home from seeing Aunty Anna!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd 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*

• After publishing the previous post, I emailed Sonia and Denny to ask them would they know why how today I've suddenly pulled up with a sore left hip.
• At 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely once 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.

• Hopefully instead PIG mum will take me to visit Uncle Slam's mum ...
• Will doubtless come home for lunch with dearest dad~

Sunday Post 437c

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3582. Ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand. XD Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents called dinnertime, I used the loo for one more tinkle and climbed into the backseat of dad's 4WD.
• Phew, dinner was @ Sunnybank Oriental and not SSCC for the second straight Sunday. 
• Disappointing, though: dad ordered a two person meal for three people, it didn't come with any drinks, he took one bowl of rice for his lunch toms and ate another bowl for his dinner, leaving PIG mum and I the last bowl to share - and you can guess who got the 'bigger' half! (Certainly not me) *sigh)
• Back home I used the loo for one more tinkle and then returned online.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight, the final, final spam count for the weekend plus what's happening Monday, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2682 (ha, I'm over 2.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Therefore. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day, I got offline, bought my mobile over to the gobbling :P table to charge and happily played Jewel Heroes. I passed more levels! XD Also tried looking for the 30th birthday card I got for Mr. Jig-Air but couldn't find it.
• When PIG mum tumbled downstairs from pigland, she fed me one of the choc chip muffins she'd spent last night baking: DELICIOUS!
• Took a nice warm 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. Actually, I was all finished after 12% but happily leaned fully against the right side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back and flipping the nice warm water off.
• After she'd dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else myself and she didn't feature again except to help with my bra strap, stick Elf's AFO straps and tie both laces.
• After drying the loo lid, sitting for one tinkle, drying inside both ears and washing Era, I returned online.
• Dad's showering right now and PIG mum's hanging the washing up since she forgot to this morning.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 437

 Good afternoon! firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2215 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Hedonism For Husbands And Wives'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Night-Time Experiences (1)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'True Change'; fifthly, the spam count for the week's actually twenty and sixthly, the spam count for the weekend's just four. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until PIG mum woke me her usual daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P trip I've returned to bed when she 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. Whilst doing so, 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 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 my special Sunday Frosties cereal, 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, 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 sit in the hallway and await Fi's arrival. When she arrives, I climb into her passenger seat, remembering to look behind and bid C1 a good morning upon seeing her. XD Happiness was seeing Fi really did get a small hot chocolate for me; stupid Ela was so excited she immediately knocked it partially sideways outta the up holding, sending some spilling everywhere and sending PIG mum flying for the tissues. XD Turns out C2 wasn't in the car today also coz he didn't get himself ready in time!

• After dropping C1 off @ the Zees, Fi tootles me across the road to the Los.

• Seven adults attended today; baby Tiff was present too! She was staggering around but has even worse balance than I do - @ any given moment she'd just faceplant! o_O Now I know why everything in their lounge room's padded. XD

• Pastor Grace led a Bible study from Galatians 5:1-26; thanks to Janixe who walked behind me once to the loo @ 9:40am and lifted the lid for me. I also munched a milk tea mochi!

  Enter

• Afterwards, Fi tootled me back to BCAC for ESS. I used the loo for one tinkle and she kindly saw me seated before leaving.

• Yay, I got to stay seated for worship again today. I sang everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

• Speaker today was Reverend Chris with his second-last sermon from his Anarchy series and there was communion afterwards. Still ended seventeen minutes early.

• Dad picked me up immediately after service, I used the loo for one tinkle and then he tootled us off to the Rochedale Maccas and fed me a pissy little Unhappy Meal. Sheesh the serve's already tiny - did he really need to steal chips from me twice?? *sigh*

• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then 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.

• Once I've used up my two most important hours of the day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, take my mobile over to charge, ask PIG mum please for some arvo tea and hopefully read for one hour.

• 'Dad had better take us out for CHINESE food tonight; we already had to eat @ SCSC last Sunday!

• Toms: hopefully PIG mum'll take me to the Greenslopes Hospital to visit Uncle Slam's mum; apparently she's fading fast.

• Hopefully Annette can come mind me from 4-6pm; she wasn't here last week! Pearl was very upset. XD

• Also hope that I can watch the 6pm bulletin for the 172ND time!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
