Friday Post 362c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 5793. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower and several small chunks of the chicken PIG mum had recooked from this arvo's attempt with Tiff.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one cup of water; I was ready to return online after that but dad ordered me to go watch the second half of Thursday night football, grr. Annoyance was that he'd not even lemme raise the footrest! *sigh*
  • In return, I faced the television but looked down and sideways @ his bike while counting down the minutes left, meaning I didn't haveta watch the game. XD
  • Right on the buzzer I got up 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.

  • At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Toms: Nisha's minding me 10-2. Looking forward to my once-weekly sleep-in, my once-weekly three big mugs of white tea with two sugars and the chance to read for three hours toms! I think it's possible; not planning to watch the news toms night since the Broncos are playing toms @ 5:30pm but Foxtel has Saturday coverage rights. Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 5680 (ha, I'm over 5.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "In God's Strength". Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • When I was summoned for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :PO table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 362

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 5139 steps (sweet, second consecutive day I'm more than half a normal person XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Delayed Deliverances'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Try A Power Nap'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Rest Assured In God' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's fourteen but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 53RD time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 4th time this year I've scored one whole week of consecutive awesome sleeps!Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck woke me THUNDERING our road to tip bins; after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently down the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again for the pot. :P
  • Once dearest dad has kissed me bye, pretended to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed when Pearl body slammed him for the cheek and left for his hard day's work, PIG mum was inside my room hitting me with the eye goo since Peggy was arriving @ 8am.
  • After PIG mum lets Peggy inside, she knocks, says good morning, fifteen more minutes? And thankfully leaves when Pearl nods @ her,because Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum. XD
  • When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :P for three more tinkles, we got me kitted and I headed over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who squirted me some toothpaste.
  • Teeth brushed, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era and then headed out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy behind me.
  • Breakfast was three Weet-Bix with a minute streak of honey, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. I'd expected the custard bun Karina bought yesterday also but PIG mum says she's never given me three Weet-Bix AND the custard bun? 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 sat 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 Peggy's passenger seat, she kindly helps me with the seatbelt and then she tootles me off to the NAB for my final session @ the NAB with Dakota!
  • Today I hiked the Great Court for the first time this year! Mr Jig-Air pushed me up and down, saying don't help wheel lest you catch your fingers in the spokes and Dakota left a strenuous HEP for me to complete so I'm not having a break from physio whatsoever.
  • That done, I sit over the loo for two tinkles, climb back into Peggy's front seat; she kindly helps me with my seatbelt again and then tootles me home.
  • So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Peggy flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Peggy rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Elf's sock and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
  • PIG mum had already prepared a peppermint tea for me when I got out to the gobbling :P table but thanks to Peggy who made me a toasted tuna sandwich with DOUBLE cheese and buttered over one side!
  • Only PIG mum came over and yapped @ Peggy; the poor woman couldn't leave until 2:02. XD But I won't see her next Friday since it's Easter Friday!
  • I started reading the book Alison lent me! PIG mum fed me about one bowl of the chicken pasta Tiff made with me, but then she screeched that the chicken wasn't fully cooked yet and removed it all, leaving me with only broccoli and pasta!
  • Arvo tea finished, I plop online and happily watch the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 53RD time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the page.
  • Toms: getting my weekly sleep-in till 10am, when Nisha minds me till 2pm. Will shower after getting home from walkies from Calamvale Central since I don't get 4-6pm support anymore.
  • Must ask dad over dinner tonight is there any table tennis @ church toms~
  • Looking forward to reading that memoir for 2/3 hours!
  • And fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 54TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 362c

 Good evening and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 7950 (sweet that's the first time I've passed 5500 this year) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Singing In The Car'. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • Suddenly dad says we're going out for dinner? I pop into the bathroom and PIG mum helps me with a bra.
  • Tonight we eat @ 8 Street. Dad buys three/four sushi rolls while PIG mum buys some bibimbap to share with me. Dad also pops into Coles to buy a litre bottle of water first. Actually, we eat dessert before dinner: dad shook a free soft serve from the Hungry Jack's app and went to get it! I tried shaking mine but was only offered a bacon deluxe burger for four bucks: no deal.
  • Walking back to the car was an ordeal; I mean, walking's always an ordeal for me, but tonight both parents got up me for not using Green Sticky properly enough? I even practised a stand-to-sit for them! Sheesh, I figure they were just getting sleepy. XD
  • Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle before walking myself slowly and safely back online, again and always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Toms: Peggy's minding me from 8-2 and taking me out for my last NAB session with Dakota!
  • Then Tiff's coming @ like 2:30pm and we're making pasta bake together! Also hope she remembers to bring KFC foor Ela and Easter chocolate! XD
  • Hoping too start reading the book that Alison lent me today for one hour!
  • And maybe I'll even get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 53RD time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 362b

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 5873 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-NINE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 52ND time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Exactly one hour later, noisy PIG mum beginning her daily a-THUMPING  around upstairs wakes me to use the pot :P again. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before letting Karina into our house @ 7:30am and bolting off to her half day's work.
  • Karina says good morning, hitting the snooze button for fifteen minutes and wisely leaves when Pearl nods @ her, even though Pijum can't anatomically give the Bear Bum. XD
  • When she comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who's squirted some toothpaste for me already.
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table with Karina following me.Breakfast is 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* Thanks to Karina who turns on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure.
  • Breakfast finished, I sit once more over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into Karina's backseat, she kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt (as she does all day) and then tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my fortnightly shopping trip, finding a disabled park on level two across the road and grabbing a trolley for us.

  • After visiting the loo for one tinkle, I skip the library coz we've been invited to brunch @ the Gidley residence! 

  • I sit outside Woolies and post from Facebook while Karina goes and finds the groceries; once she comes back I buy them with her.

  • After one more bathroom visit, we're off! The traffic runs smoothly and we're @ the Gidley residence without any troubles.

  • I'm shown to the seat I had last time. Alison immediately serves us this 'thing' she concocted that Boyd calls a frittata; Karina kindly cut mine up and squirted tomato sauce over it for me.

  • Then lunch was the bagel with fried egg, ham, cheese and homemade Benny sauce! I bought packets of HK-style milk tea but poor Boyd couldn't try since he's lactose intolerant.There was even dessert - a creme custard!

  • After lunch, Alisdon directed me over to their sofa. I sat down and she immediately lifted up the foot rest for me; I hadn't noticed she had one! 

  • Before we left, Alison even lent me a boook! Sounds interesting: it's about some girl raised in some cult and then joined the army? Will start reading it this weekend; don't think I've got time to read it this arvo coz Tiff's coming for OT.

  • Saying our thanks and byes, we left @ 2pm. Back home, I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helps me rinse out my hair, 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 Karina was helping with Erf's sock and one last when I was drying inside the ears with a tissue.

  • Back outside, I booted the computer up while Karina went and cleaned the bathroom before I signed her off with my thanks and byes @ 3:30pm.

  • Once PIG mum got home she nabbed half my sausage bun, gave me one mug of peppermint tea before feeling unsociable and sitting on the couch watching YouTube videos.

  • After one tinkle I walked myself slowly and safely online,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Toms: Peggy's minding me 9-1/2 and taking me to my final two hour session of NAB physio for the next five weeks! Must remember to bring Dakota a block of chocolate~

  • Tiff's coming in the arvo; we're making some kinda pasta bake together!

  • Most excitingly, I think the Broncos are playing toms night!

  • Righteo, hopefully bbl aftter dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 362

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 5652 steps (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "As Sure As God's Love For His Son'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Seek God For Direction' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'To Do/Or Not To Do' but fidthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHTEEN MINUTES online after PIG mum gets home from work!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call muntil 6:15am, 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 362c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3823. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, @ 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: Karina's taking me for my fortnightly shopping trip, but instead of reading @ the library first we're buying groceries and then heading straight to Alison and Boy's place; we've been invited over for lunch again! Pity that PIG mum says that's the last time she'll lemme go, even though Alison said she'd pay foir petrol. Apparently PIG mum doesn't want me going since I'll eat too much fatty food? Must ask her: will she lemme go if I BYO a salad?
  • Wonder will dad take us out for dinner toms night? Otherwise I suppose I could watch the news for the 52nd time and then start watching Thursday night football; the Roosters are playing the Eels!
  • Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S. Joni's devotional topic's 'The  Family Of God'.

Wednesday Post 362b

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3706 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWELVE MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • After using the loo for one tinkle, I lay down and got some massage and acupuncture from Ray. PIG mum was in her element yapping unceasingly @ him; my grateful thanks to Ray who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. PIG mum wasan't too good @ hiding her excitement @ getting to yap all hour today; she repeated one word six times today. XD
  • After another loo trip PIG mum tootled us back to Woolies and we bought groceries before returning home.
  • Lunch was a toasted tuna sandwich containing one slice of cheese and one mug of green tea.
  • I used the loo for two tinkles and then sat by the door waiting for Jacinta, who arrived two minutes today.
  • After Sparkless3 was transferred into her carboot, I climbed into her passenger seat and she toootled me off to play table tennis.
  • Paid Kim for a size 14 polo tee to take home and try; she says I may bring the tee back next week and swap it should the size not fit me.
  • Had fun playing with three different people before we ended with doubles. Best yet, Kim said Easter eggs MIGHT be involved in next week's session! XD
  • We ate our arvo tea inside Jacinta's car; she'd bought rice cakes (I only had one but she had @ least two) too and turns out apart from plain, you can get FLAVOURED ones! Thanks to her who broke me a lil chunk of hers to try; I like!
  • Back home I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Jacinta tapped the nice warm water off, got dried, goit creamed and had another tinkle. When Jacinta rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's sock and one last when I was drying inside the ears with a tissue.
  • Back outside, second arvo tea was one yummy mouthful of gloopy passionfruit and one mug of yummy peppermint tea. Fingers crossed for a cup of Chinese tea toms.
  • I started watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 51st time. When the first ad break came on, I used the loo for one tinkle and then asked Jacinta to massage Ela, which she did so until exactly 6:30, when she passed me her mobile to sign her off and left with my thanks and byes.
  • Once the news finished, I used the loo for one tinkle and then plopped online.
  • When dearest dad returned home and 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.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yucky silk melon, one lil slice of pork, two lil slices of chicken and one tiny mouthful of scrambled egg, which I obviously saved for last.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl 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 brb 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. ^^

Wednesday Post 362

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3480 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When Everyone Deserts You'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The joys Of Heaven (3)'; fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Heart-Splitting Joy' and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Had Other Plans' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ELEVEN MINUTES online after dinner!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Nature usually calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip, but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock before waking again for the pot. :P
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughs when Pearl body slams him for the cheek, we happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help very 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 head 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.

  • After getting myself a spoon (9th tme this year), getting, opening, pouring, closing and replacing the milk, breakfast was mostly (because there was also some Coco Pops and Weet-Bix shards added) one bowl of 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 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 4WD and buckle my seatbelt. She tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^

Tuesday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2578 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, john Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's '10 Results Of The Resurrection'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Joys Of Heaven (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Stress To Peace'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am 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*  Actually, I'd had such an exciting day I'd fallen asleep and woken with a full bladder shortly before midnight but used the pot :P very quickly and was back under the covers before the new day arrived. XD
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip, but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again to relieve myself.
  • AFTER DEAREST DAD HAS KISSED ME BYE< RETUCKED ME BACK INTO BED< PRETENDED TO SUCK PEARL"S seven PEARLS< LAUGHED WHEN PEARL BODyslammed him for the cheek and left for his hard day's work, Pearl and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before 9am.
  • Instead, I fell back asleep, only to be furiously awoken by PIG mum @ 9:15am, screeching that the carer hadn't come! She helped me up instead; I WEnt too the bathroom and brushed teeth, sat over the loo for one tinkle and then walked 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.

  • Aww I'd hoped PIG mum would lemme eat another one of those yummy buns she'd recently Baked but she wouldn't, huh. Instead, breakFAst was three Weet-Bix with one tiny stream of honey over each, one slice of toast hopefully buttered and very lightly spread with raspberry jam, 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 toilet, 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!

  • Whew Jacinta arrives! Turns out she originally had CPR training but CODA sent her to take me to physio instead! PIg mum Left her with the grocery list and dashed off to attend her pilates class.

  • After I washed and dried Era, I climbed into JacintA"S Passenger seat and she tootled me off to Breathe for physio, parking in the disabled spot @ the end. Thanks to her who helped me with my seatbelt all day.
  • Physio today: 1.864km bike ride, 36 bicep curls per hand with 4kg dumbbell,  36 shoulder press per hand with 4kg dumbbell, 36 leg curls per leg,  36 step ups per foot and boxing!
  • Physio finished, J
    Jacinta tootled us off to Pinelands Plaza, parked in the last disabled spot and grabbed a trolley for us. After I bought one box of cheap facial tissues we moved down to the Bakehouse Bakery but since there was such a huge line there I took a seat @ the empty table while Jacinta lined up and bought our bahn mis!
  • After she tootled us home, I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Jacinta flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Jacinta 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 BBQ pork salad roll plus one yummy mug of peppermint tea. Jacinta enjoyed hers too while playing with her mobile; @ exactly 2pm I signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back toms and taking me to table tennis!
  • After finishing the bahn mi, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely online, always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Will heAD Over to the gobbling :p table once the most important two hours of the dAy were up aNd hope PIG mum will feed me some arvo tea!
    Also hope someone will take me to Toastmasters tonight! only two already aren"t coming >>> XD

Monday Post 361c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2407. Sorry, not quite 3.5 grand. XD Maybe toms. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 5:55pm I used the loo once more for two tinkles and then plopped online, signing Jacinta off with my thanks and byes. She's back Wednesday and taking me to table tennis~
  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the FIFTIETH time! All the things I like recording: Phair, Reason (heard), Acton, Burley, Donahue (heard), Ketchup, Bermister, Aubrey (first name), Whincup (heard), Markez, Whop. Clunes, Palaszczuk, Mander, Head, Erwee, Jamieson, Addison, Dry, Kentwell (heard), Grover, Majors, Tapper, Boning, Gomes, Ricciardo, Teo, Albanese, Bandt, Bowen, Foord Mortimer, Lambie, Woiwod, Trump (heard), Obama, Souttar, Irvine, Hill Kroehn, Niu (heard), Katoa (heard), Zorko, Fagan (heard), Ashcroft (heard), Brimson, (heard), Dymock, Nejad, Heathwood (heard) and Robson. 1AUD =69.02USc. Shane Webcke read the sports report and Tony Auden read the weather report. Brisbane was 2-31 today. Brisbane tomorrow: 21-32. Mt. Gravatt toms: 20-32. Sunrise 5:55am sunset 5:55pm
  • After the news, I tootled online until summoned for dinner. Before joining the parents @ the gobbling :P table, I used the loo for one tinkle.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower, some salmon aND ONE CHUNK OF YUMMY CHICKEN. Sorry, shrieking! >< XD
  • 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.

  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely once more to the loo and back, again and always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Toms: someone new's coming @ 9am and taking me to Breathe for physio with Eric. He'd better remember my birthday cake!! XD
  • Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy a pork salad roll from the Pinelands Plaza bakery; Pinelands said I could suggest I add crackling pork to their menu!
  • Elizabeth's taking me to Toastmasters toms night; is she new? Neither PIG mum nor I remember. XD
  • Looking forward to bringing dinner home from Maccas; never mind that Unhappy Meals were what I ate like THREE DECADES ago!! *sigh*
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3323 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "You're Still Here" but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • Best of all, Sonia shouted arvo tea! Well, partly: PIG mum had left me five bucks and Sonia said she'd cover the rest; I got plain egg waffles to share and Sonia bought a pearl milk tea for me, saying she only had to pay two bucks coz the lady @ the counter saw the three students wearing the uniform polo tee, asked were they students and when Sonia said yes gave her a student discount! Dunno how much the pearl milk tea cost, though.
  • The students left first; Sonia waited until I'd finished before we pushed me back to her car (she parked outside Garbo to escape the parking fee) and drove me home. Wow, she drives a MERSADES-BENZ! She said she'd bought that for herself on her 50th birthday and since it's a convertible and the weather was good, she drove me home with the roof down! I told her I'd love to wave my arm around but was afraid the police would fine Sonia but she said you can; only hanging half your body out the car's illegal! Hence I waved Era sideways and up, yelling how cool's this??!! XD
  • Back home, I used the loo once and booted the computer up.
  • Thanks to PIG mum who let Jacinta inside when she announced her arrival, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself.
  • So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Jacinta flipped the nice warm water off then got dried, creamed and rekitted, having one more tinkle when she was helping with Elf's AFO straps.
  • Back outside, arvo tea was only one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit and one mug of peppermint tea since Sonia had told PIG mum about the egg waffles. Jacinta, only twenty and ignorant, didn't know and added MILK to my peppermint tea! Happiness was reading for one hour; I reached pg. 222 @ 4:53, reached pg. 115 five minutes later @ 4:58pm and reached pg. 250 @ 5:24pm. Then I had about ten minutes to play Jewel Quest~
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 361

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2941 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "How To Delight In God's Word'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Joys Of Heaven )2)'; fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's "You're Still Here" and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Is Listening' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TEN MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, third consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past two days, nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked down the hallway silently and unpopping the lock into the door before waking to use the pot :P again.
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pears, laughs when Pearl body slams him for the cheek, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me with absolutely nothing but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Breakfast is one of the chicken buns PIG mum baked last night! I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drink one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
  • After breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely 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 4WD and buckle my seatbelt. Since she won't lemme count out aloud anymore while Era's helping Ela stretch, I've just decided to not do that anymore altogether.
  • PIG mum tootles me off to Unique Physiotherapy where I see Aunty Anna for some acupuncture and massage. PIG mum's obviously in her element; @ the beginning she repeated one word four times in her excitement to talk. Then I suppose she remembered I'm too busy enjoying Aunty Anna's firm ministrations to bother talking and slowed down. Me, I'm just proud I manage to stay awake for the entire hour and not fall asleep. XD
  • After I used the loo for one tinkle, PIG mum tootled me home, I booted the computer up and noted my awesome sleep last night before heading over to the gobbling :P table.
  • Lunch was one yummy toasted tuna in tomato and onion with one slice of cheese and one yummy mug of Chinese tea. Yay that dearest dad came home for lunch today too; we Whatsapp videochatted with 4th Aunty.
  • Then PIG mum tootled me off to Garbo to meet Sonia and the students! We arrived nice and early, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me all the way to Coles and when I sat down on some bench outside Coles she went back for Sparkless 3.
  • Sonia arrived with Dakota and two other female students. Telling PIG mum she'd drive me home afterwards, PIG mum left and we started today's adventure!
  • Dakota had drawn a circle graph; each pie slice she'd made a riddle and then I had to solve the riddle and then walk over to the shop! I even hiked two sets of eight stairs and outside every stop we took a photo.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • After posting the previous post, I played Jewel Quest for FIFTY MINUTES! PIG mum didn't notice coz she's baking chicken buns!
  • At 9pm I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one tinkle and back, always always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Dad just got home and fed me three slices of white dragon fruit. 
  • Toms: seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap incessantly @ her. XD

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2356 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Trust In The Dark'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • After watching the 6pm news, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa yummy kailan, two small chunks of yummy pork and three small slices of yummy chicken. Just pity 'twas tasteless. XD
  • Dinner was gulped (not spooned, coz 'twas SPICY - PIG mum said dad added lotsa ginger into it!) down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl 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 shortly after 9pm following 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 Monday, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for Sunday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2167. Ha, I'm past two grand, XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day, I headed over to the gobbling :P table, intending to read for one hour.
  • I FINISHED THE BOOK CLUB NOVEL @ 2:32pm and then finished the acknowledgements five minutes later! Since PIG mum had appeared downstairs after napping all arvo I asked her could she please fetch me three new books to choose from but she very rudely replied get the books yourself. Luckily, I saw an old Matthew Reilly book lying across on the table beside, reached over and got that, happily reading while PIG mum checked my roster and bitched about the mistakes she found. 
  • Took a  nice warm shower afterwards - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
  • I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off and called PIG mum back. After she dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else until Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
  • After drying the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, washed and dried Era and then returned online.
  • Hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1821 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Forever Satisfied'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Joys Of Heaven (1); fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Telling Room'; fifthly, the actual spam count for the week's actually twenty-six and sixthly, the spam count for the weekend's just two. Anyways, events for today?
  • Yay, second consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Once PIG mum finishes her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs around 6:20am, I immediately fall back asleep since I know she'll get super-noisy exactly one our later!
  • Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum a-THUMPING around upstairs one hour later's my wakeup call to use the pot :P for another tinkle. Soon, she's let herself into my room to gimme some eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (because 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 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 back 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 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 own seatbelt. PIG mum tootles us off to church, parking beloow the ramp.
  • I hike up the ramp and use the normal ladies loo (third cubicle) since the disabled loo and first two normal cubicle of the ladies loo have their lids down and awful PIG mum wouldn't lift it for me before grabbing my usual spot @ service.
  • Yay, I get to stay seated for worship. I sing everything, plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week mean absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Peter Pie; he gave his third (last?) sermon from his Chosen Exiles series.
  • After service ended nineteen minutes early today I sat waiting for PIG mum. When she came, I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat out @ the back. PIG mum fed me one DUMPLING for morning tea and one plastic cup of white tea; Granny Wan sat alongside me, insisting I eat one of her bikkies. Various aunties came and chatted like Aunty Kitty; I also continued playing Jewel Quest.
  • Had lunch @ Hungry jack's with dearest dad; today I ate a Whopper Jnr. and about five chips.
  • only it started BUCKETING DOWN when we were about to leave; dad sat me down first @ the entrance before going to move the car closer; he also draped his tee over me when we walked quickly through the rain to his 4WD.
  • Back home, I used the loo once (huge thanks to dad for lifting the lid for me) before walking 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.

  • Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and hopefully finish the book club novel!
  • Wonder who's playing Sunday arvo footy?
  • Would love dinner out with someone but it's not looking likely ... will hopefully get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 49TH time instead.
  • Toms: late morning appointment to see Aunty Anna for some acupuncture and massage; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap incessantly @ her. XD
  • Will doubtless come home and eat lunch with dearest dad coz then PIG mum's driving me to Garbo; we're meeting the NAB students outside Coles! Personally I hope Mrs. Hoppie will shout arvo tea. XD
  • Think it's Rebecca minding me 4-6? 
  • Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news for the FIFTIETH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,

Saturday Post 361b

 Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3463 (so again, not quite 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Praising Out Loud'. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

  • We got me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, drink one mug of water and then sit over the loo proper. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table. Thanks to dearest dad who's cooked his once-weekly ham and eggs and thanks to Nisha who adds one slice of cheese for me and tries to cook the bread yummy. I happily read for thirty minutes, reaching pg. 325 @ 11:07am and reaching pg. 333 @ 11:22pm.
  • While I use the loo for one tinkle, Nisha closes and locks stuff. After I climb into the passenger seat of her car I buckle my seatbelt and she tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking underground because there aren't any disabled spots free @ the bakery entrance.
  • We bought groceries from Woolies and I chose a vegetable tempura sushi roll for arvo tea before Nisha tootled me home.
  • After taking a nice warm shower Nisha reheated the rice leftovers dad had left her with extra oyster sauce and made me two more big mugs of white tea with two sugars. I happily read for another twenty minutes over lunch~
  • Nisha dropped me off to BCAC and dad signed her off with our thanks and byes. She's back again same time next week~
  • Dad and I had lotsa fun playing together~ Back home, I used the loo once, he gave me the tempura veg sushi I'd bought for arvo tea and made me one yummy mug of peppermint tea. I happily kept reading, taking my total reading time to ninety-five minutes today.
  • After using the loo for one tinkle I plopped online and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 48TH time.
  • Had our weekly dinner out tonight instead of toms night since dad's attending some kinda church concert! 
  • Didn't get much @ Vietnam BBQ Restaurant but that was expected. I like other HK-style restaurants better since they've got set meals and come with proper drinks and not just soup.
  • Back home PIG mum helped me change tee since dad told her I'd been all sweaty after table tennis and then I returned online.
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Fingers crossed for lunch out with other BCACers afterwards but hopes aren't up.
  • Also expecting a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum.
  • Actually, anyone free for dinner together toms? It's the last Sunday for my birthday month!
  • Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Friday's actually 3473 (sorry, not quite 3.75 grand XD); secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2711 steps today; thirdly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Ministry And The Fear Of Man'; fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Steps To Forgiveness (2)' and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR online should I get to watch the 6pm bulletin (Nine's) for the 48TH time!! Righteo, let's start off with last night's events first!

  • At 5:55pm I asked PIG mum to please microwave dinner for me; I used the loo for two tinkles and then headed to the gobbling :P table and happily wolfed down the usual dinner while dad happily watched some old YouTube clips.
  • Dad left for some meeting and I plopped in front of the computer to watch the Battle Of Brisbane even though PIG mum demanded I head over to the couch to watch the match come half time.
  • Only when dad returned home from his short meeting, he demanded I head over IMMEDIATELY! I ignored him until there was a break in play before heading over; phew I didn't miss any play.
  • At halftime we had a two point lead. I used the loo for one tinkle before coming back to watch the halftime show while dad and I munched some seedless green grapes.
  • The Broncos won! Hence why I watched Friday night knockoff before getting myself to bed. Zzz~
  • Today: yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Immediately falling back asleep after PIG mum noisily a-THUMPED around upstairs @ 6:20am, her second round of a-THUMPING woke me for another pot :P trip. Shortly afterwards, she'd let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before dashing off for her half-day's work.
  • After retucking me back into bed, promising to stay quiet so I could snore in peace and saying he'd leave Nisha some leftovers to reheat for my lunch; I tried moving as close to the wall as possible and then rolling to sleep on my right side - 'twas such a successful move I snored soundly until dad unpopped the lock to the front door awaiting Nisha's arrival @ 10am @ 9:55am! My bladder said I'm full but Erf asked can you wait twenty more minutes? If not, I'll go now. My bladder decided sleeping again was cooler. XD
  • After dad let Nisha in, she knocked and just said fifteen more minutes? Well she didn't say good morning but actually I fell back asleep and didn't get outta bed and use the pot :P for one more tinkle until 10:25am! When I asked Nisha why she didn't call me, she answered she'd guessed I'd fallen back asleep when I didn't call her @ 10:15am and just lemme sleep. XD

Friday Post 361b

Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's probable final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2976 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Jesus Is Under Our Roof'. Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

  • At 5:55pm I sat once more over the loo for two tinkles and then I 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: someone gave dad delicious fried rice, that had like scallops and BBQ pork! Too bad PIG mum spoiled it by adding lotsa soup carrot and lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon into it. XD
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink, I walk myself slowly and safely back online, again  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • unsure why Friday night footy's starting @ 6:30pm and not 7:30pm but i'm gonna watch it!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2729 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Ignorance Guaranteed Ungodliness; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Steps To Forgiveness (1)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Recognizing God's Voice"; fifthly, the spam count for last weekend's actually two and sixthly, the spam count for the week's twenty-four but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I watch the Broncos and Dolphins' game tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Lol, I thought I'd earned an awesome sleep last night when the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to start tipping bins but then why did the pot :P already contain sth?? Lol, I must've used it last night without remembering!! XD
  • After using the pot :P I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Nature usually calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly until 7:45am when dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again to relieve myself.
  • After dearest dad retucks me back into bed, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughs when Pearl bodyslams him for the cheek, kisses Ela good luck for all her exercises with Tiff this arvo and leaves for his hard day's work, it's almost immediately that PIG mum comes downstairs and lets herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 8am.
  • Peggy knocks, says good morning, fifteen more minutes? And smartly leaves when Pearl nods @ her. When she comes back, I use the loo for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth, thanking Peggy for squirting me some toothpaste. After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era before heading out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is three yummy Weet-Bix with a thin drizzle of honey over each one with one slice of toast apparently very lightly buttered and even more thinly spread with jam, 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 Peggy's passenger seat, she kindly helps me with my seatbelt and then she tootles me off to the NAB for physio with Dakota.
  • Physio today: Sixty-three sit-to-stands with left and forward weight shift standing cone work reaching for Era and around forty laps short hallway walking.
  • After sitting over the loo for three tinkles, I climb back into the passenger seat of Peggy's car, she kindly helps me with my seatbelt and then tootles me home, where I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Peggy flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Peggy 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, Peggy immediately made me the perfect tuna in tomato and onion with TWO slices of cheese, buttered HEAVILY on one side only (meaning I could turn the butter side down should PIG mum suddenly arrive home XD) and one big mug of white tea with not one spoonful of honey but with GOLDEN SYRUP since she couldn't find where PIG mum had hidden the honey! XD I've also had a very successful day playing Jewel Quest - I've passed like FORTY-THREE levels today! :D
  • At 1:55pm I visited the loo once more and did another stinky unspeakable. PIG mum immediately signed Peggy off and shoed her away; I came out once Tiff arrived.
  • Today I just sat in front of the computer and Ela did one whole hour of impractical exercises. I don't mind, since I'm seated and can fully concentrate.
  • Tiff walked with me over to the gobbling :P table before leaving. PIG mum fed me our last white dragon fruit, half a plain rice cracker and one mug of yummy peppermint tea for arvo tea while I happily read our book club novel for one hour, finishing pg. 300 @ 3:54pm.
    Visited the loo for one more tinkle before returning online. 'Returning' because after Ela had finished doing all her impractical exercises, Tiff and I Googled for things that I might cook next week: pasta bake!
  • Will visit the loo for two more tinkles @ 5:55pm and ask PIG mum to please reheat dinner for me coz the Broncos vs. Dolphins match kicks off immediately after the news!
  • Toms: getting my once weekly sleep-in until Nisha minds me from 10am till 2pm. Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea and the opportunity to read for like two hours toms!
  • Presume dad will take me to play ping pong with him @ church toms arvo? Will ask over dinner.
  • So prolly won't bbl after dinner (unless the Broncos get THRASHED by the Dolphins), so hoping everyone has a lovely weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 361b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3217 and secondly, joni's devotional topic's 'Fight For One Another' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • Thanks to Pat who helped me once to the loo @ morning tea break; back inside the meeting room, 'twas cake time! Everyone sang the happy birthday song for me, Sattya gave me the big first slice coz I was the birthday girl and Stan gave me TWO more slices while Happy made me one extra cup of white tea with two sugars since the cake was so rich! 
  • Home work for the next meeting's 'take it up'; since the meeting ended fifteen minutes early I rang Karina for pickup please.
  • After visiting the loo for one more tinkle; Karina tootled us off to Mr. J's to meet Fiobna for a tonkatsu lunch; 'twas formerly Cha Kee2!
  • I chose some tonkatsu; it came with sweet potato mash and rice! I'm happy since I was fretting last night how I hadn't got any rice yesterday. XD You're taught to grind the sesame seeds in the little pestle and mortar (can't remember which one's which XD)and then you add the tonkatsu sauce before adding to the tonkatsu; 'twas delicious! I drank mine with a Lipton's lemon iced tea, Karina had her usual Coke and Fiona ate some kinda curry.
  • Lunch over, I used the disabled bathroom for one tinkle and then hiked all the way to Tea Station: Fiona got a pudding milk tea and I tried a TBT milk tea with pearl and 'twas DELICIOUS! :D Fi left first to pickup bubs from school (she says let's have lunch once per month) and after I finished mine Karina tootled me home where I showered my quickest - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted I booted the computer up while Karina quickly cleaned the bathroom and then I went over to the gobbling :P table and signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next week.
  • The parents returned home like simultaneously; PIG mum gave me some dragon fruit and one mug of yummy Chinese tea for arvo tea and then hit the sack. 
  • I reached level FOUR THOUSAND playing Jewel Hereos, did another stinky unspeakable and happily watched the 6pm new bulletin (Seven's) for the 46TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
  • Dinner afterwards: rice, lotsa little bok choy, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown melon, two/three little chunks of pork and one chicken drumstick with @ least half the meat already removed.
  • Entree was three green grapes and dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Righteo, hopefully bbl after one more loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight and what's happening Friday, else hope everyone has a lovely end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 361

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from last night's actually 3602 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Help The Least Of These'; thirdly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2994 steps (so must have passed three grand before the day's out XD); fourthly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "Satan's Candy Store" and fifthly, TWFT topic's 'Today, Give Your Problem To God' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the  time!! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

  • After signing Jacinta off with my thanks and byes @ 6:30pm (she's back same time next week) then went to the loo intending to sit for two tinkles before waiting for Dr. Lee's pickup but after I sat down and checked my mobile I got a Whatsapp from Jodie saying they were coming now so got off the toilet seat immediately after one tinkle.
  • After climbing into Dr. Lee's backseat behind Jodie seated in the passenger seat, I pulled my seatbelt on and Dr. Lee tootled us to Yu Lam's place!
  • Around eight people attended tonight and we made dumplings! Mine were the prettiest coz I bought my mold and made mine independently. XD Think I ate about ten? Lol, Dr. Lee raandomly mentioned that I was displaying good self-control. XD
  • Dan and KK gave me a lift home last night; they're both pharmicists! KK speaks Canto but Dan doesn't; sorry I've forgotten which dialect he does speak. XD
  • Back home, repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
  • Today: yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get really noisy one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, PIG mum beginning her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs 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* 

  • PIG mum lets herself into my room shortly after to hit me with the eye goo before bolting off for her half-day's work after letting Karina inside @ 7:30am.
  • After Karina gives me my fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :P for three more tinkles, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth (thanks to Karina who squirts me some toothpaste), sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is three yummy Weet-Bix with a line of honey down each. Unsure why PIG mum didn't gimme any drugs :P but didn't mind not needing to scull one mug of water either. XD Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
  • 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 passenger seat of Karina's car. Thanks to her who helped me buckle my seatbelt all day and she tootles me off to Garbo for GCCW.
  • I use the loo once on arrival but upon enterring Meeting Room One get told by some female librarian, "Um, we've got some function happening here ..." I apologise, say I'm here for the Garden City Creative Writers and try the next room; phew, yup today our meeting's being held in Meeting Room Two.
  • Only Ken and some new lady have arrived; she's Chinese! karina returns to her car and gets the cheesecake before going into the shopping centre proper for grocery shopping.
  • Eight people attended tonight; the new lady's named Min.

    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2691 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's ... there doesn't seem to be one? Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When dearest dad summoned me over for dinner @ 7:50pm, 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.

  • Dinner tonight: leftover fried rice, lotsa little tong vegetable, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown melon and 2.5 leftover chunks of delicious honey chicken from my birthday dinner last night. Happiness was getting to eat while having both legs propped up onto the pink stool, but although I dropped them back down the moment I heard PIG mum arrive home.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl to the fridge I walked myself slowly and safely online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after one more 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 Wednesday ahead!

  • After using up the most important two hours of my day, I immediately got offline and headed over to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum please for one more slice of my birthday cake for arvo tea? I'd had one slice last night and one more for my breakfast this morning; having just one more for arvo tea meant I'd be content to leave the rest for dad! Pity she was mean and refused.>< *sigh*
  • Instead I had some yummy white dragon fruit for arvo tea, half a plain rice cake and one yummy mug of peppermint tea. Happiness was reading the book club novel for one hour; today I reached pg. 275 @ 5:27pm.
  • Before returning online, I used the loo for one more tinkle.

Tuesday Post 360

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2375 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Jesus Died For This Moment'; thirdly, TWFT topic's ... umm, it's the same as yesterday's one? But fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's Our Father In Heaven'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, what better way to start off with life @ age thirty-six than with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 6:30am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that initial daylight morning pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly with Pijum until dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage before waking again for another pot :P trip. 
  • 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, we all happily cuddle and snore, me waking oonce more for the pot :P about one hour later shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-0THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outing and awaiting Lena's arrival @ 9am.
  • When Lena arrives, she knocks, opens the door, says good morning and fifteen more minutes? She wisely leaves when I flap one of Pijum's ears @ her, even though he's technically too long to give the Bear Bum. XD
  • After Lena comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we discuss how each other's weeks have been, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathrooom and brush teeth, 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.

  • Score, breakfast is one leftover small slice of my birthday cheesecake! :D I alsoo drink one full mug of water, pop all my usual drugs :P 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. 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 Lena's car and she tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to Lena who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day~
  • Physio today: 2.18km bike ride, 24 bicep curls per hand with 4kg dumbbell, 24 shoulder press per hand with 4kg dumbbell. 24 leg curls per foot, 36 step ups onto block per foot, 25 leg curls per leg and boxing!
  • Then for the first time ever, Lena tootled us to the Pinelands Plaza Coles, grabbed a trolley for us and after I'd bought one box of cheaper facial tissues we headed next door and I tried buying a bahn mi for the first time ever from the aunty there! Just disappointed that they don't make crackling pork ones...
  • Back home, I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Lena who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. 
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, I headed outside to munch my pork salad roll - 'twas pretty good! Even better, Lena made me one mug of white tea with two sugars before cleaning the bathroom, score!
  • PIG mum returned home and yapped @ Lena, who's still got a sleepover shift tonight.
  • Before Lena left, I used the loo once more for two tinkles. She's back same time next week.
  • Toms: late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceaselessly @ him. XD
  • Jacinta's taking me to play para table tennis toms arvo; PIG mum had better remember to bake me a cake to take for everyone there!
  • And for GG toms night, we're going to Yu Lam's place (on Daw Rd! and making dumplings for dinner! Think Dr. Lee said he'd pick me up @ 6:45 after picking up Elena first, but will confirm with him toms. Oh, better ask PIG mum for rice for lunch, then.
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers.

 Good evening and grr! Dad suddenly demanded that we leave for dinner IMMEDIATELY, just as the ad break before the weather report came on! *sigh* But my final, final plodding total for Friday's actually 4857. Had a delicious dinner @ Impressive Dumplings but I wasn't happy coz there wasn't any rice! >< Never mind, came home for cake and mother microwaved me literally one mouthful; the rice bucket (say that in Canto) in me is content. XD Oh, Joni's devotional topic's "For God's Sake" Then TWFT topic's 'Be Faithful Too God @ Work.'.

Monday Post 360b

 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 548 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'A Six-Point Summary Of The Gospel; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Faith That Brings Results' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Catching Contentment' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I get home from seeing Aunty Anna!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, nature called once @ 2:45am; I also used the pot :P again @ 6:10am, 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* 
  • Usually nature calls hourly after that initial daylight pot :P trip, but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking to use the pot :P again
  • Actually,  just very briefly: got three pieces of fried chicken from Red Rooster for lunch,  saw Aunty Anna for acupuncture and then Rebecca minded me from 4-6pm.  Going out to Impressive Dumplings for my birthday dinner with Aunty A tonight and Mr Hall rang; having a belated birthday lunch with him next month!
  • Toms: can't remember who will mind me from 9-2 but she's taking me to Breathe for physio and then I will try buy my first bahn for lunch from the Pinelands Plaza bakery! No Toastmasters tomorrow night so looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online,  reading for one hour and maybe watching the 6pm news again!
  • So probably won't bbl but wishing everyone a smashing day toms! V
  • Cheers,
    Em. ^^
