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. 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 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. ^^
