Monday Post 389d

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1656. Ha, I'm over 1.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• By 2pm, I wondered aloud when's dad taking us out? PIG mum replied he's napping on the couch but let's leave now. go to the loo.
• Dad tootles us off to Garbo, we buy groceries from ALDI and Coles and then sit outside Eight Street and eat sushi for arvo tea. I happily play and pass two/three more levels of the Harry Potter version of Bejeweled while PIG mum goes window-shopping elsewhere (Sunlit, I think).
• Back home, I take a nice warm shower - I wash and rinse my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% of my second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Once I flipped the nice warm water and PIG mum dried my back plus the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the loo seat,  I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry, dried inside both ears, washed and dried Era and then 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.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the first time this year!
• Toms: Lena's minding me from 9-2. Since Breathe hasn't reopened yet but PIG mum has Pilates class on, she says we can go watch the new Aquaman together! 
• Don't have any plans after she leaves, looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day alone, must remember to ask Lena to find me a new book to read and fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news for the second time this year toms night!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the first time: Rawlings, Chelepy, Kinderman (heard), Hilton (first name), Buckley, Tate, Quinlan, Greer, Godfrey, Donaldson (heard), Godfrey, Todhunter, Pilotto, Beasley, Fegan, Boyd, Massingham, Girly (heard), Loudon, Purcell (heard), Runer (heard), Postecoglou (heard) Gottlieb, Short, Enoch, Todhunter, Keating (heard), Goss (heard) Piotrowski, Stoinis, Assange, Pilger (heard), Richter, Stream, Howard, Albanese (heard), Wilkie and Djodan. 68.12USc = 1AUD.

 Good afternoon! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ only 484. Haven't gone out yet but going out next! Anyways, continuing today's events?

• When dearest dad summoned me over for lunch, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Dad mixed fried rice and plain rice for lunch, maybe? That was with one chunk of Chinese chicken, one slice of paper-thin beef and covered entirely with a giant mound of boiled lettuce.
• Ugh, awful PIG mum wouldn't gimme a packet of powdered HK-style milk tea! >< She's always like this; every new year she'll try to enforce some diet on me to make me lose weight for her. *sigh*
• Lunch was washed down with one mug of plain green tea; after taking the bowl over to the sink I 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.
• Dad says he'll take us out somewhere and but not where and PIG mum refuses to tell me will she have her long arvo nap before/after, but hey.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 389b

 Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD  But HAPPY 2024!! Firstly, today I've only been hard @ work plodding 350 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Death Rehearsal'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'A New Year, A New Start' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'New Identity In Jesus' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-NINE MINUTES online later!! Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, only on January the first do I accept an awesome night's sleep even though I don't think I hit the sack till like 23:45am! Anyways, nature didn't call until 7:20am 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*
• Around 9:30am PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs wakes me again for the pot :P and 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's still @ 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 finish 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. 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 two plain (no honey) Weet-Bix with a very light scattering of the yummier (flaky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) on top, 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 back 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 walk 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 nature calls suddenly @ 11:30am, I visit the loo once myself again.

• Right now, dearest dad's vacuuming downstairs and PIG mum's ... having her morning nap? I dunno! Hope dad'll take us out somewhere afterwards else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me~
• Ooh, hope I can watch the 6pm news for the first time this year! Last year I watched the 6pm news TWO HUNDRED times; hope I can match that this year!
• Toms: Lena's minding me 9-2. Since PIG mum has Pilates but Breathe hasn't reopened yet, wonder where she'll send us?
• Shouldn't have anything happening after Lena leaves; looking forward to spending my most important two hours online, fingers crossed I can read for one hour (must remember to ask Lena to please find a new book for me) and watch the 6pm news for the 2nd time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good morning! :P

Em. ^^

P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 

Sunday Post 389d

 Good evening again and definitely one final greeting for tonight. Apparently, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 4573. Ha, I'm apparently over 4.5 grand but really, Wally just gets too excited whenever I get to ascend and descend stairs. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9:45pm I had my once-weekly Facebook videochat with Aunty Nga and then I hiked upstairs to visit it!
• I FOUND BEAR BEAR!!! He was sitting on top of the chest of drawers in the middle room!
• PIG mum had the air con on in her room and I went inside to visit it, plus the bathroom and their walk-in wardrobe.
• Then I brought Bear Bear over to my beautiful bedroom that my dearest dad had painted blue for me when we moved back nearly twenty  years ago!
• Lol there wasn't any pillow but Bear Bear graciously became one for my head. I lay on my bed (thanks PIG mum for clearing all her stuff off it) and told the cruel and unfaithful God that I still hated Him but that nearing seventeen years post brain injury I'vew mostly resigned myself to the fact that I'l be disabled forever so can only try to live the best life I can.
• Heading back downstairs with Bear Bear was clumsy, but Ela helped~
• Only one hour to pen my reflections for 2023 and then 2024 arrives! Cya all next year and hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 389c

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3798; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Incline Your Heart' and thirdly, the probable final, final spam count for the weekend's now only six. Anyways, probable final, final events for tonight?

• While I read the book club novel for one hour, I reach pg. 250 @ 3:12pm and then discover that the book title appears @ the bottom of the page!
• When I ask PIG mum may I shower yet after reading for one hour and playing the Harry Potter version of Bejeweled she snaps no, I'm still sleeping! I use the loo once myself and return online, reminding her that she'd better  lemme shower soon coz dad PROMISED that I could watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 200TH time!
• Thankfully, she rouses herself after awhile and I take a nice warm shower - I wash and rinse my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was all done after only 11% but happily leaned fully against the right sid rail and watered myself for another tinkle before flipping the nice warm water off and calling PIG mum back.
• After PIG mum dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• Once I dried the  loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washed and dried Era and then 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.
• Only ten minutes left, so just briefly:
• Went to SCSC for dinner but 'twas packed; instead we had dinner @ Vietnam Corner!
• After I have my once-weekly Facebook video chat with Aunty Nga @ 9:45pm, I'll hike upstairs, visit all the rooms, lie down in my upstairs bed and have a frank discussion with God before coming down here and writing my reflections for 2023
• Then, it's 2024! Fireworks and I'll ring Aunty Lai afterwards~
• Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up latest by 9:15pm since I don't wanna be back in bed before twelve hours have passed!
• Hope dad takes us somewhere else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• 4th consecutive day without support for personal care ... >< Don't worry, Lena comes back Tuesday~
• Anyways, maybe bbl but if not, happy 2024 for toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2311. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• After finishing my most important two hours of the day online, I used the loo for one tinkle and then head down the hallway and sit @ the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum please to feed me some arvo tea. She's sleeping on the couch and just snaps wait!
• Whilst doing so, I read the book club novel for one hour, - hopefully bbl!

Sunday Post 389

 Good afternoon and Happy NYE! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1732 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Outfitted And Empowered'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Get To Know God Next Year'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Righteous City' and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's only five. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, what better way to end the year than with an awesome night's sleep? Actually, nature had called shortly before midnight, but I'd used the pot :P quickly and been back under the covers before the last day for 2023 arrived. XD
• PIG mum woke me again for the pot :P @ 6:20am with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs; after another pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep again since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Like clockwork, @ 7:20am her noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs again wakes me for the pot :P, 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*

• PIG mum comes back to finish with 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 two plain (no honey) Weet-Bix with a very light scattering of Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude.

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 buckle my seatbelt. She tootles us off to church and parks under the hall. I hike up the ramp, use the second cubicle of the normal ladies loo' (the disabled and first normal ladies' loo have lids down but mean PIG mum refuses to lift the lid for me), wash and dry both hands and then grab my usual spot for service on the most left.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. ><  *sigh*
• Our final speaker for 2023 was Uncle Phillip! His sermon topic was Seeking God Earnestly. I didn't bump into Christy jie!!!
•  Afterwards, I use the bathroom and then head over to the morning tea are and grab a slice of CAKE for morning tea!
• When PIG mum leaves for her coffee and gossip socials with the aunties, dad takes me to Hungry Jack's for a small lunch. How disappointing: the final lunch for 2023 and I only get a cheeseburger, half a packet of small chips and like half a large orange juice.
• Back home, I use the loo for one more tinkle and then walk 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 most important two hours of the day, I'll head over to the couch and wait for PIG mum to feed me some arvo tea.
• Fingers crossed we'll not haveta have our once-weekly dinner out @ SCSC again!
• Anyways, when I get home I've gotta hike upstairs and visit my upstairs bedroom before coming downstairs and creating my Reflections for 2023!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing you all a great NYE; CYA in 2024!!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Went to Capalaba Central for post-Christmas Day shopping! I bought this really cool tray with Rudolph printed (asked PIG mum would she put  lollies on it for me  but she was mean and immediately snapped no; luckily dearest dad said I could put  pens) and PIG mum got a couple/a few pairs of shorts for me. Luckily the changerooms had a stool to sit on, but I had to like stand and squat like SEVEN times trying everything for PIG mum. *sigh*
• For lunch we ate mini bahn mi! Very impressed: the bakery was called Van Dough, a clever play on Van Gogh! XD
• After getting home I quickly use the loo for one tinkle and then dad tootles me off to the last table  tennis session @ church for 2023! He even lets me win! XD Unfortunately, I stack it after getting home; after walking around the car I suddenly just lose balance and sit oon the floor. >< Luckily, fat butt, good cushioning. XD

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa lettuce, lotsa soup carrot, two slices of tasteless pork beef and most of one yummy chicken drumstick!
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I 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.
• Gonna continue writing my special blog post on how I spent Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day now; hopefully I can bbl after one final loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight, the final, final spam count for the week plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!

Friday Post 389

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1835 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Glory Is The Goal' thirdly, TWFT topic's 'God And Your Work (2)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Crown Of Life' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's only six. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 8th consecutive awesome sleep tonight! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to collect bins @ 6:10am; 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*
• Even though dearest dad's been given holidays till 2024, outta habit I still wake again for the pot :P @ 7:45am coz that's when he'll usually come kiss me bye before leaving for his hard day's work~
• Around 9:20am, PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs wakes me once more for the pot :P. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival.
• After PIG mum lets Peggy in, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door, calls good morning and waits for me to flap Pijum's ear @ her before asking us fifteen more minutes? Pijum gives another earflap and she wisely leaves; phew, since Pijum's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
• When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and 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 head  out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, rousing @ her AGAIN for not  eating breakfast this morning!
  My own breakfast: one bowl of Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. 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*
• Are we outta Weet-Bix? Breakfast is one bowl of Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• After breakfast, I sit over the loo once more. 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 Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking underground and grabbing a trolley for us. Thanks to her who kindly helps me with my seatbelt both ways.
• At Calamvale Central, we buy fresh produce from the Mega Discount Fruit Market and other groceries from Woolies before I sit to play with my mobile while Peggy takes the trolley and does more shopping herself.
• Back home I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who rinses out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Only thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Peggy made me a tuna toastie with double cheese but sadly unbuttered and only with one  mug of green tea coz the parents came home. XD
• Used the loo for one tinkle before plopping online.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, yell upstairs to PIG mum for some arvo tea please and read for one hour.
• Boss and family are coming over for dinner tonight! Wonder can I return online after dinner/will I be expected to sit and chitchat?
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Would love lunch out with other ESS peers but expecting a pissy little cheeseburger with dad @ Hungry Jack's and a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. >< Oh, but I've gotta finish my special blog post on how I spent Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day this year toms night coz it's NYE the night after that and I've gotta pen my reflections for 2023!
• Then dad had better remember to take us out to CHINESE food for dinner and gimme ONE bowl of rice!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 389d

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight!  Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3286 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "See People Through Jesus' Eyes'. Righteo, just briefly, probable final, final events for tonight?

• Eat breakfast, do a stinky unspeakable and then  head out to Warrigal Square Woolies and buy groceries with dearest  dad while PIG mum's swimming.
• Back home, I use the loo for two tinkles and  then sit by the door awaiting Fi's arrival; when she messages saying she's coming late PIG mum orders me to walk back down the hallway and wait there coz  it's cooler since she's turned the air con on.
• When Fi arrives, I get into her car, bid C1 and C2 hello and then Fi tootles us off to the Runcorn Plaza Momo's!
• Unfortunately all the parking's outside Momo's taken but thankfully there's a disabled park outside IGA and Fi parks there before I hike all the way to Momo's. C2's so thoughtful: leading the way, he turns around and reminds Aunty Em to look out for the bench!
• After stuffing ourselves silly with fried chicken, we head like six shops across to Gongcha and get pearl milk tea with reusable bottles that have faces!
• Back home Rebecca minds me for two hours from 4-6.
• I've watched around ten minutes of Nine's 6pm news when dad says dinnertime!
• Tonight Aunty A shouts us dinner @ Parklands! Pity my IDIOT nose starts leaking and I can't stop sneezing; around 8:45pm PIG mum declares home time I've gotta give you Telfast.
• Toms: Peggy's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. Wonder where PIG mum's sending us?
• Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online, fingers crossed PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea and I can read for one hour and hoping I'll really get to watch the  6pm news bulletin for the  198TH time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 389c

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1993 (so must have passed 2000 steps before Thursday finishes XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed SEVENTEEN MINUTES online after somebody minds me for two hours and we get home from dinner with Aunty A!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Around 9am, PIG mum's daily a-THUMPING around upstairs wakes me for another pot :P trip. 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's still home; actually, Uncle David's given him holidays till 2024!) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum returns to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, after which 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.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 389b

 Heylo 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 280 steps (because obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "What's Your Aim?"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'God And Your Work (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Meeting The Needs Of Others' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I get home later!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night: what a great way to end 2023 with - the 13TH time this year I've scored one consecutive week of awesome sleeps! Nature didn't call  until 4:55am 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*

Wednesday Post 389e

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight!  Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2691. See? Told you I'd crack 2.5 grand! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I happily played  the Harry Potter version of Bejeweled until I ran outta lives. Then i started writing my special events blog post about how I spent  Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and  Boxing Day!
• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: hope PIG mum'll help me up ... since I've run outta funding, the carer's not coming till 4pm for personal care.
• Also hoping she'll take me grocery shopping and aisle walking somewhere, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• But excitement: Fi's coming around midday; we're going to Momo's for lunch with her munchkins and then coming back to Tea Station for bubble tea and croffles!
• Unsure who's minding me 4-6? Roster says TBA but  Karina says it's not her ...
• Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news for the 198TH time!
• Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night! Like I always say, a very little's better than none~
• Anyways, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2498 (so will definitely have cracked 2.5 grand before the night's out XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Inclines His Ear'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• After watching the news, I read and shared the She Reads Truth daily devotional.
• When dad summoned me to dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over 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 little tong vegetable, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup onion and two/three thin slices of tasteless soup beef. 
• Apparently, someone from  Staffing Options took me to Toastmasters once but I wore my seatbelt incorrectly and copped some fine?  Unsure why I've zero recollection of that ...
• Dinner was spooned down  with  one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. Grumpy @ PIG mum for not giving me one cookie; Breathe physio gave me a tin for Christmas and I wanted to  start eating it! >< *sigh*
• 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!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1903 (so must have passed 2000 before Wednesday ends XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWELVE MINUTES online after Bree minds me for two hours and I watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 197TH time!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Outta habit, I wake again for the pot :P around 7:45am and wonder why dearest dad isn't leaving for work yet ... dad doesn't usually take Wednesdays off?
• Around 9am dad comes and kisses me bye: he's playing badminton with his mates today!
• Soon after dad's gone 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.
• PIG mum comes back to finish 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 two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix with a very light scattering oof Minus :P all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude.

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my seatbelt. She gets in also and then tootles me off to Richard's Pain Free Clinic to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture.
• I tell Aunty Anna that I've got a sore left shoulder and then relax under her firm ministrations. PIG mum's in her element yapping unceasingly @ Aunty Anna; my grateful thanks to her who always replies and keeps a conversation flowing.
• After telling Aunty Anna cya  next year! PIG mum tootles   us back to the Warrigal Square Woolies where we buy groceries and then come back home for lunch.
• PIG mum makes me one tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese cut into two rectangles plus one mug of yummy green tea from Aunty Nga. Happiness was getting forty free Masailli (first name), Ailli,minutes of lives from the Harry Potter version of Bejeweled even though I only managed to pass two more levels of the game. XD
• After finishing lunch, I use the loo for one tinkle then walk 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.
• Bree's minding me from 4-6pm today. Fingers crossed I'll get to read for one  hour and then watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 197TH time!
• Toms: since I've run outta funding, I'm not getting any support until 4-6pm. >< Hope PIG mum takes me out for walkies somewhere because then I'm meeting Fiona Mok and bubs for lunch @ Momo's and  better yet, we're going back to Tea Station @ Warrigal Square for bubble tea afterwards! :D
• If dad won't take us out for dinner toms night I'll look forward to watching  the 6pm news for the 198TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else hope everyone's having a smashing week!

Tuesday Post 388c

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 1077 (ha, I'm just over one grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Open The Storehouse' but thirdly and way most importantly I'm really still owed THIRTY-THREE MINUTES online after I have my once weekly Facebook video chat with Aunty Nga!! Argh, terrible way to end Boxing Day. >< But just briefly, probable final, final events for tonight?

• After breakfast, I do a stinky unspeakable and pop briefly online, intending  to go to the loo once more before David and Esther come pick me up, but when  Dr. Esther suddenly says they're coming now (early) I head to the loo immediately.

 

• After I climb into the backseat of David's car and buckle my seatbelt, they get in too and David drives us off to Wellington point somewhere! (NB. Unsure why the bullet points are really spaced out, but hey. XD)

 

• Wow, Serena has a very fancy house that borders like a lake!  

 

•  People arrive with food and the  barbie's fired up! I photo everything I eat and send to PIG mum; the fare for Boxing Day's much better than what I got for Christmas! XD

Eh now my dot points have gone?? Oh, whatever! ><

a- After lunch I asked Yu Lam can I fish but she points @ the grey sky and says prolly noot coz the storm's coming. Instead, Rosanna walks  behind me once to the loo and I manage fine by myself.

-  Back outside I sit and play mobile games when the storm hits!  BANG and all the lights go out! Luckily mobile phones are unaffected and I keep playing whilst everybody else  plays this werewolf-style Mafia game with Winston chairing.

- Phew the rain's stopped by the time people head home. Originally Rosanna was gonna drive me home but Dr. Lee told her Io'll do it.

-Back home, I did another stinky unspeakable and then take a nice hot shower - I wash and rinse my own  hair today. I alsoo sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I'm done after only 10% but happily lean fully against the side rail and water myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water and calling PIG mum back.

-Dried, creamed  and rekitted we have the usual dinner.

-After drinking soup it's present-opening time! 

-Toms: seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING   to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD

-Will hopefully go grocery shopping and aisle walking with PIG mum afterwards, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.

Table tennis hasn't resumed for 2024 yet (well 2024's not arrived yet XD) so Bree/Mel will only mind me from 4-6pm.

Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 197TH time!

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

• At 9pm, I walk 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: It's Boxing Day! Only instead of  hitting the Boxing Day sales I'm joining EM for a trip! Dr. Esther and David are coming  to picjk me up @ 11:30am and taking me to our EM gathering somewhere! Obviously I can't go swimming but I'll bring along my picnic chair and maybe even fish!

• When I was summoned for dinner @ 7:41pm, I used the loo for one 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. 
• Lol, Christmas dinner was a disappointment: rice plus all the hotpot leftovers from lunch! My favourite was  prolly the 1/4 chunk of crumbed fish dabbed with a little mayo.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking  my bowl over to the sink I  walked myself slowly and safely back online, 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 @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total  for today, yjr final, final events  for tonight  plus what's  happening toms, else  wishing everyone a smashing Boxing  Day toms!
  Cheers,

  P.S. Tee  hee, I've already managed FIVE posts tonight!  XD Yeah, I can manage that some Mondays now~ 

Monday Post 388d

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for  tonight!  Firstly, Em's potential final,   final plodding total for  Monday now  stands @ 2581  (ha, I'm literally just over 2.5 grand XD) and  secondly, Joni's devotional topic's  'Look To  The Lord.' Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Once I've used    up my most important two hours online of the day, I head over to the gobbling :P table and  wait for PIG mum to wake from her long arvo nap  and feed me some  arvo tea. Can't see any book around so happily play the HP version of Bejeweled.
• PIG mum feeds me some yummy mango, half  a tasty rice cracker and one huge mug of green tea. I was hoping she'd  lemme  shower  afterwards   but   she'd  gone  upstairs  for another nap and dad  forbade me from calling upstairs to her!
• But finally she awoke and I headed into the bathroom for my nice warm long   (Christmas's one day I let myself wash each body part my age number  of times; normally it's just twenty-five) shower - I wash and rinse my own hair  today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of  my shorter second-favourite song  out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually,  I'm all done after only  10%,but happily fully lean against the side rail water myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water off and call PIG mum back.
• After  PIG mum dries my back and the  back of the chair for me, I do everything else and she doesn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps need sticking and  both laces need tying.
• After drying the loo seat, I sit for one tinkle, stamp both feet dry, dry inside both ears, wash and dry  Era   then 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. 
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else  wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for today now stands @ 2146. Ha, I'm over two grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• PIG mum returns and finishes with absolutely nothing bar  Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces 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.
• For Christmas breakfast, mother lets me enjoy one bowl of the chocolate Tiny Teddy cereal she lemme buy yesterday! The look awesome and taste chocolately but Bear Bear's kinda nervous that I'm EATING his kind ...  XD  I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain one large cup 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 back 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!
• Lol, PIG mum's so DESPERATE to attend service early she orders me out before I'm ready. Doesn't matter; while dearest dad tootles us off to Redeeemer Lutheran College for Christmas I sing on repeat four secular Christmas carols coz goodness knows we're only gonna be singing Christian ones after we arrive.
• At Redeemer, PIG mum and I both use the  loo once before we head inside to grab a seat. I'd hoped to grab a seat on the most left; unsure why dad insisted we sit in the middle somewhere Oh well, no biggie.
• The service seemed pretty empty ... mostly old folks? We sang Christmas carols, some lady told the nativity story to some bunch of less than ten kids, there was communion and offering.
• We left straight afterwards; PIG mum says go home and use the loo because we're off to the Slams' residence soon.
• After one tinkle, I washed and dried Era and then walked myself slowly and safely online for forty minutes, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• At 11:40am I used the loo for another tinkle and then got back into the back seat of dad's 4WD. Our next stop: the Slam's  residence!
• We arrive before Aunty  A and Ronnie jie  jie; first we give each other presents and I give Anna her belated 50TH birthday card.
• When Aunty A arrives too, I quickly give her the Christmas card I'd written for her coz Ronnie  jie jie hadn't arrived  yet; PIG mum said it'd look bad were I to give AuntyvA a Christmas card but not Ronnie jie jie.
• Turns out Christmas lunch is hotpot! Lol, I'm disappointed: I'd been hoping for sth more substantial on Christmas Day. >< XD  But thanks to Anna who gets me a lil 250mL poppa of vita soy milk~
• While dad plays Big Two with Aunty A, PIG mum and Anna, I happily play my HP version of Bejeweled. Toda I've passed like four levels! 
• There's dessert! I skip dad's red bean dessert soup (icky) and PIG mum's almond dessert soup (would blow  up) but drink one bowl of PIG mum's nice if not-really-sweet-enough black sesame dessert soup and munch two little chunks of grass jelly before returning to play mobile games.
• When we head off, I thank Uncle  Slam for inviting us  over and again give belated  birthday wishes to Anna; I'm glad she enjoyed the 50th card I bought for her and she wasn't offended. XD
• Back home, I use the loo for one tinkle and walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Am disappointed: the parents haven't invited anyone over for Christmas dinner! Expecting the usual bland, boiled and tasteless affair, them...
•  Anyways, hopefully bbl else  hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 388b

 Heylo and good morning again! Sorry, please excuse the first post: you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1374 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Two Purposes For Christmas'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "He's All This ... And More!'  and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "The Promise Of Christ's Birth" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY MINUTES online after we get back from having Christmas lunch with the Slams!! Anyways, events for today?

• What better way to begin CHRISTMAS not only with my 4th consecutive awesome sleep (nature didn't call until 5:40am) but my 22nd dream of the year: I'd just walked into some pet shop!
• When PIG mum lets herself intoo my room she says good morning. I forget to say good morning back until she was helping  me do my bra strap and put a tee on (since dearest dad's home) but @ least I remembered to say MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
• While getting myself mostly independently kitted, 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. ^^

• After publishing the  previous post, I continued emailing  out my XMas Greetings to people.
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo for  one more tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: it's CHRISTMAS! Mother's looking forward to attending church @ Redeemer; I'm looking forward to trying my new Tiny Teddy cereal coz PIG mum said she'd lemme enjoy it  once without mixing healthy cereal into it!
• For lunch we've been invited  over to the Slams; presume their place isn't too badly flooded?
• Actually looking forward to showering toms, three times  a year I wash each body part my age times and toms  is  one!

Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 1266. See, told you I'd crack one grand! XD  Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• After service, I used the loo once and then grabbed the most left seat @ some table set outside because there was some fancy morning tea thing happening! 
• Surprisingly, the parents got food for me? Aunty Brenda also passed me one/two yummy little treats; baby Ethan's really CHUBBY!! XD
• Originally PIG mum said she wasn't gonna gimme any lunch even though I screeched what I had was arvo tea; luckily, dearest dad fed me a few mouthfuls of rice.
• PIG mum fed me one  huge mug of Chinese tea which sent me off to the loo but I came back to play the Harry Potter version of Bejeweled since it'd given me forty minutes of free lives; think I'm @  level 198 right now!
• I plopped online for around twenty minutes  before PIG mum  ordered me off to go shower.
• So a nice warm shower for me - 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.
• After I flipped  the nice  warm water off and PIG mum had dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else  and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing  up, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and  both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried  inside  both ears, stamped  both feet dry, washed and dried Era and  then did my once-weekly backup of my computer files before  heading over to the gobbling :P table and asking PIG mum for some arvo tea, please, which was some yummy mango and  one huge mug of green tea from Iris jie jie~
• Before returning online, I sat over the loo for one more tinkle.
• Toms: it's CHRISTMAS! Hope PIG mum remembers to lemme try the new Tiny Teddy cereal she lemme buy yesterday!
• Since PIG mum DEMANDS we attend church for Christmas, for the second consecutive day I'll be sitting through service toms. Back @ Redeemer Lutheran College, after which we've been invited to the Slams! Just unsure for how long?
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 388

 Good afternoon!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 985 steps (so must have cracked one 1000 before Sunday finishes!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Indescribable Gift"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'A Whole New Approach'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Christmas Star' and fifthly, the spam count for the entire week's thirteen. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs and woke me; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum a-THUMPING back upstairs exactly one hour later  awakes 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*
• Soon, PIG mum has let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and  help 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.  
• PIG mum comes back to finish with 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 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 Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• After breakfast I walk myself slowly and safely back 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 car and buckle my seatbelt. After she climbs in, PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks below the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the last female cubicle toilet (the disabled one's occupied and every single ladies' loo lid's closed), wash and dry both hands and then grab my usual spot for ESS.
• Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the duet for two songs and the harmony for two others but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Eep Winston was our speaker today but this morning got sth in his eye and had to go see the doctor and get that removed! o_O Luckily, Pastor Peter Pie stepped in and filled in with his sermon titled  .
• After service, I used the loo once and then grabbed the most left seat @ some table set outside - hopefully bbl, since I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SEVENTEEN MINUTES online!!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
