Wednesday Post 458

 Eep the computer perished! >< But not only did I have a great time at Toastmasters last night (Steph brought Tim Tams!) I even had a dream: mother and I were walking around field inspecting SCARECROWS! XD Enjoyed an awesome sleep last night and saw Ray for some acupuncture and massage before coming home to find the computer has karked it! O_o Ate a toastie for lunch and then Jacinta will come take me to play table tennis at 2; she will see me showered before leaving but most excitingly we are having our small group social tonight! Tomorrow Karina will take me shopping before we buy burgers and have lunch at Alison's and Mr Boyd's place! Hope everyone is having a great week ~

Cheers

Tuesday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2492 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Radical Effects Of The Ressurection'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Delivered From People-Pleasing' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'A Baboon, A Donkey And Me'. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called @ 1:50am last night; I also used the pot :P once more around 6:30am before I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Nature calls again around 7:45am and I remember dearest dad's not working today so happily return to happy snorings with Pearl after a third pot :P trip.
• When the home phone rings I'm like I bet that's CODA and sure enough, shortly afterwards PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo and say Hannah can't come today (but CODA said it's not her fault?) but the replacement carer will come @ 9:30am, hence why I give myself fifteen more minutes @ 9:15am. 
• The replacement carer's Korean and only one year older than me! 
• After brushing teeth (thanks to Lena who squirts me some toothpaste), 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 was one bowl of the less yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran 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 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 the back of Lena's car, she kindly helps me with my seatbelt (as she does all day) and then she tootles me off to Breathe, where we find parking immediately after the first three reserved spots, yay~
• Connor greets me on arrival and today, physio with Eric's 1.808km bike ride,  36 bicep curls per hand with 4kg dumbbell, 35 leg curls per foot, 36 leg pulls per foot and 24 step ups per leg.
• Afterwards, Lena tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parks out the back and grabs a trolley for us.
• Lol since I only bought one box of cheap facial tissues from Woolies the lady @ the checkouts said she couldn't when I asked could she please slip me a free $30 pack but when we got to Lena's car and started putting groceries away, I found that she'd actually slipped me a pack! :D
• Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Lena who helps me rinse out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Lena flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Lena 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 big mug of delicious Taiwanese tea. At exactly 2pm PIG mum signed Lena off and shooed her away but I hope she comes back soon!
• Thankfully Lena put the pot :P back into the commode chair because the toilet lid was closed! Fingers crossed someone will open it before I get home from Toastmasters tonight! 
• Rebecca's taking me to Toastmasters tonight and I heard that Lino might return! 
• Looking forward to my UnHappy Meal - never mind they were what I ate like THREE DECADES ago! *sigh*
• Toms: late morning session to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
• Jacinta's taking me to play table tennis again toms! Think her shift's 12:30pm till 5/6:30pm?
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 457d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2240. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Once I'd used up my most important hours of the day, I switched to playing Jewel Quest and passed more levels.
• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: Hannah's minding me from 9-2. She'll take me to Breathe for physio with Eric, out to Calamvale Central for grocery shopping and my once-weekly crackling pork salad roll from Uncle Michael and then back home for a shower.
• Fingers crossed I can persuade PIG mum to take me somewhere for a serve of shaved ice after Hannah leaves ... it's the final day of Summer!!!
• Rebecca's taking me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm and apparently Lino's coming back! Looking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas afterward - never mind that UnHappy Meals were what I ate like THREE DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 

Monday Post 457c

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2174. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• Happily watched the 6pm bulletin (Nine's) for the 35TH time; all the things I like recording are in today's first post.
• When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and 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 yummy wombok, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, some surprisingly tasty beef and two minuscule slices of scrambled egg. Poor dad didn't eat coz he saw the dentist this arvo and had a tooth extracted; indeed, I helped him draft a text to Uncle David saying he's taking toms off coz apparently you're not meant to drive after dental work?
• 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, again 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, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 

Monday Post 457b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2052 (ha, I'm just over two grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Tough Choices'. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Yay dearest dad was home too when we got home for lunch. PIG mum fixed me a tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese and one mug of peppermint tea for lunch.
• Lunch finished, I climbed back into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and she tootled me to Vincent the physio's place to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture coz she's back from her interstate holidays.
• PIG mum had the time of her life yapping ceaselessly @ Aunty Anna; I just enjoyed Aunty Anna's firm ministrations and didn't even fall asleep!! XD
•  Back home I plopped online until Rebecca announced her arrival @ 4pm. Thanks to PIG mum who opened the door for her, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself.
• S o a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Rebecca who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, I headed back out to the gobbling :P table, where arvo tea was some delicious fruit Uncle Tanny had grown! I also drank a watered-down mug of Chinese tea since I told PIG mum I'd already drunk peppermint tea for lunch and didn't want another. Happiness was getting to read for one hour but then still having twenty-five minutes to play Jewel Quest; today I reached pg. 500 @ 5:02!
• At 5:55pm I used the loo for two more tinkles before signing Rebecca off with my thanks and byes; she's back toms and taking me to Toastmasters!
• Happily watched the 6pm - bbl, coz I'm still owed THIRTY-EIGHT MINUTES online!!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1768 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'When God Becomes 100% For Us'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'What An Insurance Policy!' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Seeing A Need' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SEVEN MINUTES online after Rebecca minds me for two hours and I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 35TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once around 1:50am; I used the pot :P again around 6:30am before I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• I use the pot :P once more shortly before dearest dad comes to kiss me bye, pretend to suck pearls SEVEN pearls, laugh when Pearl bodyslams him for the cheek slightly after 7:45am before happily snoring for about another hour, waking for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• 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 wash and dry both hands before heading out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the less yummy (so sticky bird food (what Dr. Ku calls bird food 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.

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 bathroom, 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 Top Health Underwood to get our care plans updated. Obviously, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we listened to 97.3FM all day too and today, Era helped Ela stretch for fifty minutes before Ela opened her palm @ least 200 times, holding each for a count of five.
• At Top Health, we took a seat until Debbie called us in. She took my blood pressure, I stood on the scales (and got lambasted by PIG mum that I now weighed 64.8kg; I'm unsure how much she wants me to weigh?) and answered questions about which medications I was taking currently, before she did the same with PIG mum, who was in her element, yapping ceaselessly @ her. Since I can't speak enough Mandarin to save my life, I just practised listening. XD
• After she repeated the same procedure we walked around to the other side of the building (it's quite large!) and some Pakistani doctor went through the same thing with us? When we left I said I was busting and where's the loo? The doctor walked us through the treatment room and outside, saying I'll get the key for you but the key didn't work and was jammed shut! Some random woman appeared and tried to heave the door open too but without success; in the end I just used the normal ladies toilet but have messaged Top Health Underwood and asked someone to please fix it.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• After publishing the previous post I just surfed the web while listening to some Westlife concert this year from Manila! Why the heck won't they come back to Brisbane??
• 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: PIG mum'll help me up, since we're seeing Debbie @ Top Health to get our care plans updated.
• Hopefully PIG mum'll take me grocery shopping afterwards else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ exactly 3300 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'You Are Never Alone'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents called dinner, I used the loo for one more tinkle and climbed into the backseat of dad's 4WD.
• Dinner tonight was @ Ho Lin Wah. Wonder why their Facebook page has disappeared?
• Poor dad has a toothache and wanted congee ... unsure why he ordered soupy ho fan instead? Well, it's soft too~ I also had some white sauce chicken rice but skipped the vermicelli since I don't like curry. I drank one cup of Chinese tea and half a cup of warm Ovaltine.
• Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle 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.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip 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!

Sunday Post 457b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2729. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• After using up the most important two hours of my day, I headed over to the gobbling :P table, bringing my mobile along to charge. PIG mum was sleeping on the couch.
• She got up and fed me some fruit and one mug of yummy peppermint tea for arvo tea while I happily read the Phillip Pullman novel for one hour, reaching pg. 444 @ 2:50pm, reaching pg. 450 @ exactly 3pm and reaching pg. 475 @ exactly 3:30. Meaning it takes me thirty minutes to read twenty-five pages. 
• After reading for one hour, I muted my mobile and started playing Jewel Quest for ONE HOUR! I thought PIG mum would've woken and ordered me off to shower but no, she was still sleeping!
• After happily playing for one hour; I was BUSTING! So one loo trip for me then back to more playing while PIG mum still slept. I'm rather amazed she can sleep for that long!
• When she finally got up, I had to let her immediately FORCE :( me to walk out to dad's deck and let her gleefully force mostly poor Ela take down the day's washing; argh, I HATES standing practice! >< But @ least I finished that before dearest dad got home, meaning PIG mum didn't get the chance to show him how much power she's got over me, ha.
• Then I took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud. Actually, I was all done after only 12% but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
• After she'd 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 drying the loo lid, I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry,dried inside both ears, washed both hands and walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Oh, Jamie/Jayden rang back, saying Nisha's got my parking permit (phew!) and that Rebecca's minding me from 4-6pm toms.
• Presuming once dad fixes the screen door (dunno what's wrong with it?) we'll head out for dinner.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner  else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 

Sunday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2173 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'You Are Greatly Loved'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Navigating Life's Losses (4)"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Is It A Sign?'; fifthly, the spam count for the week's actually one more than whatever it was and sixthly, the spam count for the weekend's only two. Anyways, events for today?

• Well I got my 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night coz I slept soundly till PIG mum's noisy a-THUMPING around woke me up @ 6:30am but she made me forget the DREAM I was having!! >< XD
• PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not just the bra strap but the tee (coz dad's home; you can bet she won't help toms) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I wash and dry both hands before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is one yummy 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.

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.

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. PIG mum tootles us off to church, thankfully parking in the grassy area underneath the main hall.
• I use the loo for one tinkle, take the first available most left seat from the back and PIG mum bolts upstairs for service.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today! I sang everything I knew, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• The speaker today spoke Canto; his wife translated for him! His sermon topic was 'When God Does Not Make Sense'.
• After service, I use the disabled loo again and then grabbed myself a packet of MSG crackers and took a seat @ the other end. PIG mum made me one styrofoam cup of tea with apparently a lil sugar and Aunty Ann wandered over to say hi. Gosh she's looking older now ... some Uncle bid me greetings and when I said sorry I don't know you're name, uncle ...? Stephen! He laughed. I talked with you on the phone yesterday! Oh, your Fi's father-in-law! I answered! Sorry next time I see you I'll prolly not recognise you because you're wearing a mask today. XD
• When PIG mum went for her coffee and gossip social with all the other aunties that can't be bothered attending Bible study like my dearest dadf did, dad took me to Hungry Jack's for an early lunch.
• I got one cheeseburger, one chicken nugget and only eight chips, even though I tried asking for two more. Also, I only drank water coz their orange juice machine wasn't working! >< Hmph.
• Back home, I used the loo for one more 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.
• Fad's left to play badminton and have arvo tea with his mates but he's already said he wants congee for dinner tonight so yay we won't haveta eat @ SCSC again~
• Toms: I've got a morning appointment to see Debbie for a care plan but it's required that you pop into the doctor's room and say hi to him.
• Presume we'll go grocery shopping afterwards before returning home for lunch with dearest dad.
• Aunty Anna's back from interstate so I'll be seeing her for some massage and acupuncture toms arvo; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. Me, her drone will prolly send me to sleep again. XD
• Just opened Feb's roster but toms has TBA; if/when Jaymie/Jayden rings back about my parking permit I'll haveta ask who's coming 4-6pm toms.
• Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 35TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,

Saturday Post 457b

Heylo again, good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2707 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Quiet My Pain'. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Following dad's instructions; @ 4:40pm I headed over to the gobbling :P table and ate my crispy chicken sushi roll for arvo tea. Thanks to PIG mum for one big mug of peppermint tea, although hearing dad constantly telling me to eat faster was annoying. Remembered to not react outwardly, though.
• After using the loo for one tinkle, I climbed into the backseat of dad's 4WD and he tootled me to BCAC for belated EM Remind! One long table was setup outside, I took the most left seat and played  Jewel Quest while everyone else arrived. My achievement for this week: I've reached level THREE THOUSAND!! XD
• First there were games inside the main hall, which I sat out of since I can't run anymore. Lina sat beside me, telling me that yesterday was her official final day of work before taking maternity leave and her baby boy's due late March!
• Fiona helped me up; I walked a few steps forward and then turned around to sit facing the front; next,  everyone watched a video someone/someones had compiled about last year!
• After Reverend Chris prayed, 'twas dinnertime! I sat outside on the most left, thinking I'd wait until nearly everyone had their food before asking someone please to walk behind me and get mine when suddenly Fiona appears with a plate for me!
• Dinner: rice, chunks of beef, some kinda melon and a mini bahn mi!
• Thanks to Fiona who helped me once to the loo after dinner; I managed alright by myself.
• Back outside, I played more Jewel Quest while others started packing up.
• Dr. Esther gave me and David a lift home. Poor David's wearing a moon boot coz he fractured his foot; when I asked him how he sheepishly muttered, "Kicked the door." >< XD
• Back home, the parents weren't home yet; when I rang PIG mum she said they were around SCSC coming home; get Esther to open the door and get you inside so they can leave but Dr. Esther said noo way we're not leaving you home alone! It's only about ten minutes~ While we waited David asked me what I was reading ATM and I also told them the story of about how I met Feist!
• Back home, PIG mum changed a pad for me, I washed both hands and then returned online.
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Poor Peter Pie's still out with COVID but he's said some Mandarin guy will preach and his wife will translate into English for him.
• Would love lunch out with other ESS people afterwards but resigned to a pissy lil sth with dad super-early; he wants to get me home almost before midday so he can go play baddy and eat arvo tea with his mates.
• Also expecting a super-stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh*
• But dad had better take us out to eat CHINESE food and gimme ONE bowl of rice!!
• Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1585 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'God Opens The Heart'; thirdly, TWFT topic's"'Navigating Life's Losses" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Keep Talking About Jesus!' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I get home from very belated EM Rewind!!Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, has it really been five days since my last awesome sleep? Nature didn't call until 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* 
• One hour later, PIG mum lets herself into my room and hits me with the eye goo before leaving for her half day's work. After dearest dad retucks me back into bed, cheekily tries to suck  Pear's SEVEN pearls, laughs when Pearl bodyslams him for the cheek, says he'll leave me some leftovers for Nisha to reheat for my lunch and promises to stay quiet so that we can all cuddle and snore in peace, we all do that until 9:55am when I'm reawoken by dearest dad very thoughtfully walking silently along the hallway and unlocking the front door for Nisha's imminent arrival before I wake again for the pot! Actually I'd awoken around 8:55am when my bladder told Erf she wanted to pee but Erf asked can you please wait one more sleep? Em's wearing pull-up pants right now and I'm rather too sleepy to pivot. 
• When dad lets Nisha in, she knocks, says good morning and fifteen more minutes? Before wisely leaving when Pearl nods @ her. Fifteen minutes later, I swing myself once more over to the pot :P while calling out to Nisha that I'm hungry. Since she doesn't answer, after one tinkle Era bangs the wall and I call out, Nisha, where are you? I said I'm HUNGRY!" This time she replies and says she's coming; just getting some gloves first.
• After we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom while Nisha fetches a mug of water for me. Water drunk, I sit over the loo and do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

•  After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table. Thanks to dad who's cooked his once weekly omelette and thanks to Nisha who adds one slice of cheese for me and tries to cook the bread crunchy with butter. I enjoy my first big of white tea and happily read for thirty minutes, reaching pg. 400 @ 11:21. 
• Thirty minutes later, while Nisha closed and locked windows, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then climbed into the passenger seat of Nisha's car, pulling my seatbelt on.
• Nisha tootled us off to Calamvale Central, finding a park outside the bakery. After she grabbed a trolley for us, our first stop was Woolies where she bought two avocadoes and I bought one box of cheap facial tissues. Actually, I scored a free $30 Lego pack from the checkout chic out the front who served us!
• Our other stop was the sushi place; can't remember which roll I chose for arvo tea. XD
• Nisha stopped along the road to Sunnybank Plaza (Maccullough St.?) to refuel; once we got home I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Nisha who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Nisha flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Nisha rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Elf's sock and one last while she was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, Nisha immediately made me another big mug of white tea with two sugars and then reheated rice leftovers for my lunch with added oyster sauce and cleaned the bathroom. After I'd finished the second mug she made me one more big mug while I happily read all the way until 1:55pm before using the loo once more for two tinkles.
• Lol, all that tea I've drunk has rushed straight down to my bladder; I've already needed to pee twice over the loo this arvo already! XD
• Getting excited to attend very belated EM Rewind @ church soon; I'm dressed as Julz!
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Would love lunch out with other people afterwards but expecting a pissy little whatever from Hungry Jack's and then a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh*
• But dad had better take us out for CHINESE food for dinner afterwards and gimme ONE bowl of rice!!
• Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 457c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3315. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I chatted with Alison over Messenger.
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: Nisha's minding me 10-2. Will definitely enjoy my weekly sleep-in (even though Pijum'll be banished from my bed for the next four days on the account of my monthlies), three big mugs of white tea and the chance to read the Phillip Pullman novel for awhile!
• There isn't any ping pong happening @ church because some fellowship (in Canto: gar larm) need the room.
• Instead, dad'll take me to BCAC for belated EM Rewind! 
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 457b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2137 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Reach Out'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• When I was summoned for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and 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.
• I'm mopey tonight coz we ate PIZZA for dinner tonight! Only I had a toastie for lunch today, which means I've not had any rice! *mopey* Don't worry, dad promises he'll cook some for Nisha to reheat for lunch toms; I'll be right~
• PIG mum also forked me about four slices of white dragon fruit to eat and dinner was washed down with one cup of water; after taking the cup 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 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!
  Cheers,

Friday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1803 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Hour Of Unusual Threat'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Navigating Life's Losses (2); fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Praying In Difficult Times'; fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's actually five and sixthly, the spam count for the weekend's eleven. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once last night and once more shortly before sunrise; the sky was lightening but 'twas still too dark to make out the time from my wall clock. The Winter months are coming, eep! o_O
• Shortly before dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I wake for the pot :P before I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Jacinta comes and helps me up @ 9am. Oh, and my monthlies arrived this morning.
• After brushing teeth and using the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier (flaky) bird food *(what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran 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 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 the backseat of Jacinta's car, she kindly helps me with my seatbelt both ways and then she tootles us off to Sunnybank Plaza, finding a disabled park under the cinemas.
• Lol, I told Jacinta if she wanted the free ticket from my companion card she had to shout the popcorn but she declined. Sudden;y, the awesome lady @ the counter says oh I'll just give you a free snack popcorn! :"D
• I used the loo once. Unsurprisingly, our cinema was @ the very end on the left but we had seats right where you entered and didn't need to hike any stairs, phew.
• I loved the pink jelly blob thing! There was a satisfying amount of violence but thankfully no blood. 
• After another loo trip, Jacinta tootled me home. Just when I got home Christy jie rang and said can I cone visit? I told her come @ 2pm once the carer leaves!
• So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch is one yummy toasted runa in tomato and onion sandwich cut into two rectangles and one yummy mug of peppermint tea. Jacinta cleans the bathroom and I sign her off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. Think she's back next Wednesday and taking me to para table tennis again~
• Christy jie came for a visit! Wow, her baby (just over one year old now and called Micah) weighed 4KG @ birth! She had a C-section coz she's got a bad back. She even brought along one bag of milk tea mochi; we had two each: delicious!
• When she left I walked her out, used the loo once myself and then plopped online.
• Doubt dad will take us out for dinner tonight so looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 34TH time!
• Toms: getting my once-weekly sleep-in till 10am when Nisha comes and minds me till 2pm.
• EM Rewind happens toms arvo so I'm unsure if I'll have time to play ping pong together @ church.
• Still, looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea with two sugars and the chance to  read for 1.5/2 hours toms!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• After publishing the previous post, I spent thirty minutes reading the Harry Potter fanfic I'd written before brain injury. It's pretty cringe-worthy. XD
• 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.
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: the carer that took me playing table tennis will mind me from 9-1 but I've already forgotten her name. XD
• Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme see Antman2 with her! The first session's @ 10am and she comes @ 9am; if I get up immediately when she arrives I should make it! I'll shower my fastest when coming home since the carer's shift wnds @ 1pm.
• Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day, fingers crossed I can read the Phillip Pullman novel for one hour and also fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 34TH time!

• After fifteen more minutes, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, Karina gets me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I head out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast was three yummy Weet-Bix with one thin drizzle of honey, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Karina who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure, and 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 climbing into the passenger seat of Karina's car (thanks to her who helped me buckle my seatbelt all day), she tootled me to Garbo for GCCW, taking me once to the loo upon arrival.
  
• Lol, only Stan, Happy and me attended today! Luckily there was this female librarian called CJ who was checking our setup and making sure our morning tea was supplied; Stan asked her please help Emily to the toilet during morning tea coz I can't stand the stress of her going by herself again! XD CJ gaave me a hand to the disabled loo and I managed fine there by myself.
• Homework for next fortnight's 'part two' and since we ended forty-five minutes early today I rang Karina for pickup. 
• After one more loo trip she tootled us off to C Cafe for lunch, finding a disabled park underground.
• She had the pork chop with onion sauce and rice with a can of Coke (plus a glass of ice), while I had the soya sauce chicken with fried egg end rice, drinking a cold HK-style coffee milk tea.
• Back home, I took a nice warm 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.
• I had one tinkle before Karina flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Karina rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf's AFO straps and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, I bottled the computer up, while Karina went and cleaned the bathroom before sitting and very gently massaging Ela for around twenty minutes.
• At 3:30pm I signed her off with my thanks and byes, she's back again same time next Thursday.
• For arvo tea I munched some yummy white dragonfruit, three small round rice crackers and drank one yummy mug of peppermint tea.
• Before returning online, I smuggled my mobile into the loo to play Jewel Hereos and did another stinky unspeakable.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 33RD time!
• Toms: Jacinta's minding me from 9-1. Too bad PIG mum's gone out partying tonight else I'd ask her can Jacinta take me to Sunnybank Plaza Hoyts to watch Ant Man And The Wasp? There's one session @ 10am and I'd get home and take my quickest possible shower soo Jacinta can leave by 1pm since Tiff's not coming to give Ela OT toms coz she's got some kinda training on.
• Looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online, reading for one hour while munching arvo tea and hopefully watching the 6pm bulletin for the 34TH time!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!

Thursday Post 457

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from Wednesday's actually 3975; secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2195 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); thirdly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Enjoying His Fullness'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Navigating Life's Losses (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Water Of Life' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-THREE MINUTES online after Karina  leaves and PIG feeds me some arvo tea!! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

• When the ad break came on before the weather report, I called upstairs to PIG mum, asking ber would she please come downstairs and microwave some dinner for me? 
• While I was busy shovelling one nowl of rice leftovers into `my mouth, dad arrived home and immediately demanded I use the toilet and he'd drive me to Dr. Lee's. I asked could I please swallow my last mouthful of rice, drink my cup of water and use the loo for one more tinkle first?
• It actually started spitting when we arrived but we were quickly inside and dad followed me up the steps to Dr. Lee's place. I was the last to arrive last night.
• Six attended last night; Dr. Lee took a Bible study from Dirst Peter 3:8-17 and Yu Lam dropped me home afterwards.
• Repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
• Today: yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am when noisy PIG mum woke me with her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep rightaway since I knew PIG mum'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum noisily a-THUMPING her way back upstairs and getting changed for her morning's work was my wakeup call to use the pot :P again, after which I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Soon afterwards, PIG mum lets herself into my room and hits me with the eye goo before going back out and awaiting Karina's arrival @ 7:30. Once she's let her in, PIG mum bolts off for her morning's work.
  Cheersw,
  Em. ^^

• After publishing the previous post, I typed a chat paragraph to Leanne and Peggy.
• At 9:02pm, 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: PIG mum should help me up, since she's taking me for a late morning acupuncture and massage session with Ray; bet she's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him.
• When I get home I'll haveta send everyone my GCCW homework! Actually should try send it tonight ...

Tuesday Post 456b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total now stands @  3542 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Splash-overs Of Heaven'. Righteo, final, final events for for Tuesday?

• Once my most important two hours of the day were up, I immediately got offline and asked PIG mum for some arvo tea.
• Before I got that, though, I had to let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk outside and let her gleefully force mostly poor Ela to take down the day's washing; argh, I HATES standing practice! ><
• Back inside, I had some delicious white dragonfruit for arvo tea, plus two/three small round crackers and one mug of yummy peppermint tea. The parents went for walkies and I was gonna read for one hour, visit the loo for two tinkles @ 5:55pm then head back over to the couch to watch the 6pm news bulletin only the doorbell suddenly rang @ 5:53pm! I went to the door and called out, "Hello, who's there?" Some guy called back (name) from some real estate. I said sorry not interested and he replies not a problem. Have a good one!
• 'Twas close enough; I sat over the loo for two tinkles and then returned to the gobbling :P and read for two more minutes, since I like reading for @ least one hour each day when possible.
• Headed over to the couch and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin for the 31ST time! All the things I like recording: News (Nine's) read byAndrewandMelissa. , Arvier, Crisafulli, Frecklington, Katter(heard), Fegan,Liddle, Beaumont, Keogh, Croucher, Ley, Albanese, Cuimara, Devon (first name), Burrows, Hanley, Hamburger,Lambe, Lang, Goldsworthy, Inglis, Kitching, Sadat (first name), Biden, Putin (heard), Todhunter, Schrinner, Marr, Netanyahu (heard)

Tuesday Post 456

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3201 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Amazed @ The Resurrection'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Let God Lead You' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Protect Your Heart'. Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, you'd think plodding 4000+ steps yesterday would entitle me to an awesome night's sleep, wouldn't you? Blame my naughty bladder, who poked me awake @ 12:05am and demanded I use the pot :P once for her. >< XD
• Nature called again around 6:20am, after that second pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• Usually nature calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage door before waking again to use the pot. :P
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughs when Pearl bodyslams him for the cheek, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Pearl, Pijum and I all happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P about one hour later 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 give poor Elf a very brief rub since she didn't last night.
• When Hannah arrives @ 9am, PIG mum lets her in. Hannah knocks, pushes open the door, says good morning, fifteen more minutes and wisely retreats when I flap one of Pijum's ears @ her. When she comes back, I use the pot :P for two more tinkles (usually I stay for three but got off after two since I already felt like doing a stinky unspeakable), we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth. After sitting briefly over the loo, I 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 was three yummy Weet-Bix with a thin streak of honey over each, one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly smeared with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

•  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!While I was over the loo Mr. Jig-Air from the NAB rang; PIG mum answered and apparently I'm booked down for the first block on Friday from 2-4pm. Doesn't start till March, though.

• After washing and drying Era I climb into Tank and Hannah tootles me off to Breathe for physio with Eric. Arriving early, we both happily poke away @ our smartphones until it's time to head in; yay that Hannah found the fourth park free after the first three reserved ones and didn't haveta park in the disabled bay right @ the very end.
• Physio today:1.841km bike ride, 36 bicep curls per hand, 36 shoulder press per hand, 36 rows per leg, 36 more for Elf going left and 36 sit-to-stands with left weight shift. I remembered to return those leg strap things immediately; luckily Eric says they weren't missed. XD
• Physio over, Hannah tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking underground since there's a 70% chance of rain.
• After grabbing a trolley @ Woolies we both buy groceries before I order our bahn mis @ the bakery. I ask the girl who took my order where's Uncle Michael? Shes goes and takes a look, comes back and mimes sleeping! We both have a giggle. XD
• Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I have one tinkle before I tap the nice warm water off, get dried, get creamed and have another tinkle. When Hannah rekits me, I have one more tinkle when she's helping with Erf's sock and one last when she's giving Wally back to Ela.
• All set, I walk myself slowly and safely back out to the gobbling :P table, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Lunch is my delicious crackling pork salad roll plus one big mug of delicious Taiwanese tea. Hannah eats hers too but with chilli, while PIG mum sits on the couch and watches YouTube while having her lunch - didn't see what she ate.
• At 2pm, I sign Hannah off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next week.
• After I've finished lunch, I use the loo for one tinkle and then plop online.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and read for one hour. Hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea.
  Toms: seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
• Hopefully PIG mum'll remember to take me grocery shopping and aisle walking, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• Excitement: someone's taking me to try play para table tennis! Can't believe PIG mum agreed, considering how much she DETESTS my use of Sparkless3. 
• The carer will see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm. I'll be wolfing dinner coz I've got gospel groups @ Dr. Lee's @ 7:30pm! Everyone's invited to bring dinner and eat together @ 7pm before Bible study starts @ 7:30pm, but you know how the parents are with demanding how I always just eat home food ... hence why PIG mum was mean and didn't lemme buy a roll of sushi for arvo tea... *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 456e

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4162. Ha, I'm  over four grand; that doesn't happen often! XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Since I'd already used up the most important two hours of my day, after I published the previous post I just played Jewel Quest for thirty-five minutes, passing level 2750! Hopefully won't take too long until I reach level 2800~
• 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: Hanmnah's minding me from 9-2, taking me to Breathe for physio with Eric, then hopefully to Calamvale Central for my once-weekly crackling pork salad roll for lunch from Uncle Michael @ Calamvale Central and then back home for a shower.
• Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online, fingers crossed I'll get to read the Phillip Pullman novel for one hour and also fingers crossed that I'll get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 31ST time! 
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, I managed FIVE posts today; yeah I can some Mondays now. XD 

Monday Post 456d

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3987 and secondly, Joni's devotional  topic's 'One-Word Prayers'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• At 8pm I wondered aloud when was dinnertime? PIG mum said  yeah come eat.
• Entree was one little corn cobette then dinner was rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, three slices of surprisingly tasty beef and two chunks of tasteless soup pork.
• 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, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 

Monday Post 456c

 Potentially one final greeting for Monday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3633. Ha, I'm over 3.5 grand. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for Monday?

• After using up my most important hours of the day, I headed over to the gobbling :P table and asked PIG mum for some arvo tea? Think she was having her arvo nap on the couch after lunch; while I plopped online.
• PIG mum passed me one yummy banana, one mouthful of gloopy but slightly soup passionfruit and one mug of delicious Chinese tea. During and after I ate, I happily read Phillip Pullman's novel for one hour, reaching pg. 200 @ 4:03pm and reaching pg. 325 @ 326. 
• Then I took a nice warm shower - I washed and dried my own hair. I also sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud. Actually, I was finished after only 12%, but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
• After she'd dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps needed doing and both laces needed tying.
• After drying the loo lid, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washed and dried Era and walked myself slowly and safely back online
  
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 30TH time!
• Toms: Hannah's minding me 9-1.She'll take me to Breathe for physio with Eric @ 11am and then hopefully PIG mum'll lemme buy my once-weekly pork salad roll Uncle Michael @ Calamvale Central. 
• Nothing happening after Hannah leaves; looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online, reading for one hour and watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 31ST time!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 456b

 Good afternoon again! Em's new plodding total for today now stands @ 3491. Lol, will definitely have cracked 3.5 grand before the day's out! XD Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Pearl, Pijum and I all happily cuddle and snore until just past 9am before nature calls again. Shortly afterwards, PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs; not long after that, 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. Annoyingly, she also ordered that I stretch Elf's ankle; sheesh, it's still friggin SUMMER! >< *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. 
• After getting myself a spoon (7th time this year), breakfast is one bowl of the less yummy (i.e. sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran 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*
• Breakfast finished, 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, PIG mum tootles me off to Bupa Optical @ Garbo to get my glasses fixed from Rico. Unfortunately my parking permit was left in dad's car from last night and she had to park further away across the road, but hey.
• Rico has noticeably lost weight! Mother told him he was looking trimmer (but still kinda round; she didn't say that out aloud but that was my personal opinion XD) and he said yes, coz he's a sports player (I think soccer) and his knees were giving him grief, hence why his doctor told him to shed some kilos. I asked was his daughter in like grade five now? He replied, close! Year four~
• After getting my glasses fixed our other stop was to ALDI to buy groceries. I've said before I wouldn't mind working there because their cashiers get to sit on wheelie chairs. 
• Back home, I used the loo for three tinkles while PIG mum adjusted Elf's AFO for me and then 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.
• PIG mum cooks really yummy noodles for lunch! Dearest dad comes home for lunch too~
• Lunch was washed down with one cup of delicious Chinese 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.
• Rebekah's minding me from 4-6pm this arvo. Fingers crossed I'll get to read for one hour and then watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 30TH time!
• Tooms: Hannah's minding me 9-1. First she'll take me to Breathe for physio with Eric and then we'll go for walkies @ Calamvale Central to buy groceries and hopefully get my once-weekly crackling pork salad roll from Uncle Michael.
• Don't have any plans after Hannah leaves ... fingers crossed I can spend my most important two hours of the day online, read for one hour, eat some arvo tea and get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 30T1ST time!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 456

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3313 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Kind Of Cold That Kills'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Broken Arrows' and fourthly, Our Daily Devotional topic's "What's Truly Needed" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-THREE MINUTES online after lunch!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature actually tried to call shortly before sunrise (the sky had started lightening but I couldn't see the time on the clock yet, but I explained since both legs were wrapped around Pijum and it'd be awkward to untangle myself without accidentally knocking him off the bed, how about you lemme fall back asleep and I'll willingly use the pot :P after the Sun has risen? Deal; nature didn't call again until 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* 
• Around 7:45am, dearest dad comes to kiss me goodbye, retuck me back into bed, pretend to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed when Pearl bodyslammed him for the cheek and leave for his hard day's work.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 456d

 One final greeting and good evening for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3344. Nice number. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post I checked emails and read on Women's Day article. Oh noes, Pat's caught herself COVID! o_O
• 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: fingers crossed PIG mum helps me up...
• Also fingers crossed she'll take me for walkies somewhere since I don't think I've got any appointments happening ... else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• Rebecca's minding me 4-6pm. Fingers crossed I can read the Phillip Pullman novel for one hour; it's really good!
• Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm bulletin for the 30TH time!
• Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing week ahead! 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 456c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3263 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Persevere In Doing Good'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents called dinnertime, I used the loo for one tinkle and then climbed into the backseat of dad's 4WD. He said don't need to bring Green Sticky; phew, that meant we'd not eat @ SCSC for the third consecutive Sunday!
• Instead, we had dinner @ Malay House, which was practically full! The sweet and sour pork was yummy and I had one vegetarian spring roll for dessert!
• Back home, 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.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 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 toms, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^ 

Sunday Post 456b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2447. Lol, bet I'll have cracked 2.5 grand before the day's out. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Once the most important two hours of my day were up, I headed over to the gobbling :P table and asked PIG mum please for some arvo tea; I'm gonna read for one hour.
• Over some yummy dragonfruit, three small round crackers and one mug of yummy peppermint tea,, I happily read the Phillip Pullman novel for one hour, finishing pg. 225 @ 3:01, finishing pg. 250 @ 2:32pm and reaching pg. 275 @ exactly 4pm!
• PIG mum had fallen asleep on the couch and score, dad had left my mobile on the couch; after reading for one hour I happily played Jewel Quest for just over one HOUR! Actually I got a stitch under my right ribs from leaning against the right armrest but remembered to straighten up when PIG mum got up lest she bitch @ me. XD
• After she got up, I headed to the loo since I was busting and thought I'd shower afterwards. Instead, she commands come back and take down the day's washing first. Argh, why can't the insufferable woman order me to do that for her earlier? I swear she deliberately makes me do that just before dearest dad arrives home so he'll see how much power she's got over me and how much I suck! >< When I groused @ her about that, she said fine I'll stay inside while you do it. Gladly! Era pulled down all the clothes as quickly as she could manage. PIG mum had the audacity to warn me I'd better not be leaning against the clothes line frame and I'm like can you see how flimsy that thing is? Of course I daren't put any weight on it, duh!
• Back inside, I 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.
• After I'd 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 and Elf's AFO straps needed doing and both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the loo lid, 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.
• Unsure when we'll head out for dinner ... PIG mum's using the massage chair and dearest dad's watching TV.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else hoping everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sundayy Post 456

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1886 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When You Are Immortal'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Are Thirsty For God'; fourthly, Our Daily Devotional topic's 'Revival Comes' and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's only four. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called around 12:15am; I used the pot :P once again @ 6:20am and then immediately fell back asleep again since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy one hour later!
• Sure enough, like clockwork, @ 7:20am, noisy PIG mum awakes me for another pot :P trip when she begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. After this second pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
• At 7:30am, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (because dearest dad's @ home), before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and 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 of those little cocktail chicken buns PIG mum spent last night baking while I was chatting with Aunty Lai, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. 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! Checking my mobile over breakfast, I received a photo from Aunty Nga with her, Aunty Lai and Iris jie jie with a birthday cake; it must've been Iris jie jie's birthday recently!\
• After breakfast, I walk myself once more slowly and safely back to the bathroom, 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 buckle my seatbelt. She tootles us off to church but can't find any parking beside where dad built the ramp so parks in the usual disabled spot outside the main hall instead.
• After I've hiked downstairs, I use the normal ladies' loo once (the second-last cubicle; the disabled and normal first two toilet lids are down) for one tinkle, wash and dry both hands and then sit outside the service hall because I'm on the welcome team this morning!
• Today I'm paired with Vivian! She's Hongkie like me but only turning twenty-one this April and studies OT @ UQ! Ela immediately introduced herself. XD
• Yay, I got to stay seated for worship today~ I sang everything I knew, plus the harmony for one song but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Didn't catch the speaker's name today but his sermon topic was 'A gospel of grace'. He's got a Christian background; his dad was a builder while his mum's a shopkeeper.
• Service ended twenty-four minutes early today; after PIG mum picked me up and I used the disabled loo once myself, I walked all the way back around to the front because I thought someone said there was morning tea available - but I saw none! >< Grumpily, I hiked back around to the other side of the building; I was content to sit @ the first chair I came to but unsure why PIG mum demanded I sit @ the very end for her instead? But she got me one big pack of MSG bikkies and one cup of warm tea so I'll not complain.
• Had an early lunch with dad but needless to say I'm still hungry because he only lemme eat HALF a Whopper! *sigh* I drank like half the iced coffee but that was DISGUSTING; I suppose it's not time for my monthlies yet.
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and plopped online, using the loo once more when PIG mum returned home from her coffee and gossip social with the other aunties who can't be bothered attending Bible study like my dearest dad does.
• Once I've used up my two most important hours of the day online, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and read for one hour. Hopefully PIG mum'll feed me sth hearty for arvoo tea and not just fruit.
• Dad had better take us out for dinner tonight and gimme ONE bowl of rice! Fingers crossed I'll not haveta have dinner @ the SCSC for the THIRD CONSECUTIVE Sunday ...
• Toms: perhaps respect a super-pissy plodding total from me, coz I don't think I've got any plans ... but will doubtless have lunch @ home with dearest dad and Rebecca's minding me from 4-6pm.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
