Wednesday Post 471

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 3404 (aww, not quite 3.5 grand XD); secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4118 steps (yeah I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!); thirdly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Something To Boast About''; fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Prepare In Advance' and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Sorrow And Joy but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I get home from para table tennis this arvo!! But just briefly, last night's events first?

• Amy arrived a few minutes late yesterday coz she was snuck in traffic.
• EWven funnier, we arrived TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES late coz she missed the turnoff into QUT and ended up on the highway again! I looked up Google maps with my mobile and was very impressed; I just held it flat; it just used GPS and it guided Amy back to QUT!
• Originally there wasn't any free parking available and I'd told Amy just pay for parking coz I'm already late but Amy went round again and got a free park!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 470b

• Once I'd used up my most important two hours of the day the day, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then headed to the gobbling :P table, calling upstairs to mother please for some arvo tea; I'm gonna  read Spare for another hour.
• She passes me one bana and one mug of green tea and I happily read Spare for about thirty minutes; I FINISHED THE BOOK @ 4:46pm and the acknowledgements five minutes later! Then I just played Jewel Quest until dad arrived home. XD

  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 470

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2530 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic's from last night's 'When God Goes Against His Will'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Refuse To Live In Fear (4)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The God Who Restores'. Anyways, events for today?

• For the first time in four days, yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:25am and after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep immediately because usually dad leaves for work @ 7:25am?
• Only for some reason, he didn't leave until 8:25am! After he's kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed, pretended to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed when pearl body slammed him for the cheek and left 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 before going back outside and awaiting Lena's arrival @ 9am.When that happens, 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 lets Lena inside, Lena knocks, pushes open the door and bids me good morning. When I nod Pearl @ her, she laughs and bids Pearl good morning too before asking fifteen more minutes? Pearl nods again and she wisely removes herself - but comes back two minutes too early! When she taps the blankets I'm under, I thrust Pearl @ her and screech, "Two more minutes!" Lena just laughs and does as she's ordered. XD
• The next time Lena comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth while Lena empties the pot :P for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is one bowl of porridge with one slice of toast covered 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!
• After washing and drying Era, I sit outside the bathroom and Lena dabs sunscreen on me before I climb into the passenger seat of her car and Lena tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to Lena who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day~
• Physio today: 1.284km bike, standing practice with left weight shift, 30 shoulder press with long bar and 36 foot taps on dumbbell for both feet. The most exciting news: Eric got engaged! And how fancy: since his fiancee's parents live in Taiwan, I asked him did he just ring her dad and ask for his permission over the phone and Eric replied no, I organised a FaceTime meeting with him!
• After physio, Lena tootled me off tto Pinelands Plaza and got a trolley for us before we bought groceries from Coles.
• Groceries bought through the self-serve checkout, our other stop before Lena drove me home was the Pinelands Bakehouse for my obnce weekly bahn mi.
• Oh, one final stop before going home! Since today's McCafe's 30th birthday, we stopped @ the Warrigal Maccas drivethru and I got a free mocha! Lena had already gotten her free cappuccino~
• Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Lena who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Lena turned the nice hot 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 tinkle when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, lunch was my yummy BBQ pork salad roll and my delicious mocha. Strange, I thought asking for a BBQ roll gave you a crackling pork one but this one came without crackle? Doesn't matter~
• PIG mum came downstairs (she went swimming this morning before coming home and napping, maybe?) and yapped @ Lena who patiently waited two minutes overtime before asking PIG mum please to sign her off since she needed to get home.
• Before popping online I used the loo once for two tinkles.
• CODA just rang; Rebecca can't take me to Toastmasters tonight but Amy will. Pity, I was looking forward to hearing Rebecca's ice breaker!
• Looking forward to getting some dinner back from Maccas tonight, never mind that UnHappy Meals were what I had surely THREE DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Toms: don't think Ray's back yet? Hope PIG mum'll help me up and take me for walkies somewhere else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• Jacinta's coming to take me to para table tennis @ 2:30, then seeing me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm.
• Most importantly: tom night's the ORIGIN OPENER; QUEENSLANDER!! 
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• After watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 87TH time, I read and shared the She Reads Truth daily devotional.

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa hairy melon, lotsa some other vegetable, a little chicken, a little beef and like two slices of onion.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safelky back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

Monday Post 470c

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3320 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 87TH time!! Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• I used the pot :P again around 6:45am before immediately falling back asleep since dearest dad usually leaves for work @ 7:45am!
• Instead, he doesn't leave until 8:25am? There's no time for me to fall back asleep after he's gone, though; moments after the garage door has shut PIG mum's heard noisily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Shortly afterwards, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with only the bra strap and the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently, 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 out to the bathroom to brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then slowly and safely walk myself 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 plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) bread, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• After breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely to the loo, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt. PIG mum tootles me off to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture.
• Well, I enjoyed Aunty Anna's firm ministrations and PIG mum enjoys yapping ceaselessly @ Aunty Anna. I do well, actually: managing to stay awake! XD Sometimes listening to her yap incessantly sends me asleep .... XD
• After PIG mum tootles us home, I use the loo for one tinkle and then pop online. When PIG mum summons me over for lunch, I walk myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• While PIG mum's trying to secure a cheap plane ticket for dad (in the end, she fails) I head over to the gobbling :P table and munch a teriyaki tuna toastie, cut into two rectangles for lunch and drink one huge mug of delicious Chinese tea.
• Yay dearest dad came home for lunch with me~ When Rebecca arrived, he walked with me to open the door for her and saw me into her car (her car's big and needs the block but Hannah's car's even bigger!)
• Physio @ the NAB today: 28 sit-to-stands with left and forward weight shift,  four short walks around classroom, four laps hallway walking (Denny came with and pushed my right hip forward whenever Erf stepped to enable a step-through gait) and four longer walks around classroom. I've forgotten the student's name but she's the Asian one and poor Mrs. Hoppie's sick today!
• Physio finished, I sat over the loo for tinkles while Rebecca told me about her below-par hot chocolate from Genies before driving me home.
• Took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Rebecca who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea's one yummy banana, half a plain rice cake and one mug of green tea using the cup Aunty Dolly gave me from Leanne yesterday!
• Happiness was reading Spare for one hour, finishing pg. 375 @ exactly 3:50pm! Rebecca very gently massaged Ela after cleaning the bathroom; since I was absorbed with reading and she was absorbed in playing with her smartphone, we both didn't notice the time but PIG mum obviously does; @ 4:02pm she hurried downstairs and immediately hurried Rebecca away. XD
• Before plopping online, I used the loo once more for two tinkles.
• The parents have just gone for walkies; me, I'm looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 87TH time!
• Toms: Lena's coming @ 9am and taking me to Breathe for physio @ 11am. Presuming we'll buy groceries @ Pinelands Coles afterwards; fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy a BBQ pork salad roll from the Pinelands Bakehouse for lunch!
• Lena will see me home and showered before leaving @ 2pm; I'm looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online and then reading Spare for one hour before Rebecca takes me to Toastmasters toms night! Also looking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas; never mind that UnHappy Meals were what I ate @ LEAST THREE DEACADES ago!! *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• After I published the previous post I finished watching the match replay. 'Twas a tight finish!
• Then I read match report after match report and basked in their glory. 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.
• Toms: pretty sure PIG mum'll help me up since I've got a late morning session to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. I'm looking forward to her firm ministrations; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD Should stay awake though; it's still morning and I usually fall asleep coz I see Aunty Anna in the arvo. Not for the next three weeks though, since I've got NAB physio in the morning.
• Rebecca's taking me to the NAB and will see my home and showered before leaving @ 4pm. Looking to reading Spare for another hour (I've almost finished it!) and fingers crossed I'll get to watch the 6pm news for the 87TH time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 470c

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3444. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents summoned me for dinner, I went to use the loo for one tinkle but saw that PIG mum had closed it so went back to the computer and noted down that I'd lifted it before sitting for one tinkle, washing and drying Era and then walking myself slowly and safely over to the dinner table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cabbage, lotsa lettuce, lotsa hairy melon from dad's mate, a few tiny slices of tasteless soup pork and another few wee chunks of halibut.
• 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 week ahead!
  Cheers,

Sunday Post 470b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday mow stands @ 3273; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Comfort Others In Affliction' and thirdly, the potential final, final spam count for the weekend's now twelve; wow, the weekend spam count rarely reaches double digits! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• The minute I'd used up the most important two hours of  my day, I started watching the full match replay of the Broncos and Warriors game yesterday! Since PIG mum was upstairs enjoying her long arvo nap, I enjoyed slumping against the right armrest but of course I remembered to straighten up before she came downstairs. XD
• I'd just finished watching the first half when she ordered me over to the goobbling :P table for arvo tea; yay, she'd saved me another fluffy muffin! This time I was careful to devour the muffin with small bites, since I'd already munched the first one with two/three big chomps. XD That was washed down with one mug of delicious Chinese tea.
• Took a nice hot shower afterwards - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off; after PIG mum dried my back and the back of the chair for me I did everything else and she didn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the toilet seat I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washjed 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.
• Did my weekly backup of important files.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 470

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've beebn hard @ work plodding 2956 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Authentic Vs. Phony Faith'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Refuse To Live In Fear (2); fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Only What The Spirit Can Do'and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's already nine. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once around 1:10am; I used the poot :P again this morning @ 6:20am when PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around woke me up; after this second pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum going a-THUMPING back upstairs awakes me again for the pot :P, after which I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• At 7:30am, PIG mum lets herself into the room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back 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 (16th time this year I've had to get myself cutlery), breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, 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 us off to church and parks beneath the hall; I hike up the ramp and use the normal ladies loo's first cubicle, because the disabled loo lid's down and horrid PIG mum won't open it for me. Actually, the first cubicle's loo lid was down too and I was just gonna ask the lady who'd vacated the cubicle could she please lift it vack up for me when PIG mum suddenly baged past her and lifted it! Lol, is she trying to show the aunty what a 'good' mum she is? XD
• After washing and drying Era, I grab my usual spot for service. PIG mum bolts upstairs for CM.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for worship again today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for two songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Peter, but not our Peter! His sermon topic was Singing From The Heart'.
• After service, I used the disabled loo myself once, grabbed a packet of MSG crackers for morning tea and took a seat.
• When 'twas time for the meeting, PIG mum walked up behind me into the main hall and I took my preferred spot on the most left.
• Peter Pie chaired the meeting. First, he got Mid Chow to give a financial report before she took questions. I asked first: since we're a church and not some performing band, where does our income come from? Answer: offerings!
• Dr. Esther walked behind me down to behind the hall, where aunties had cooked lotsa noodles for our lunch! Kalos even got me a red bean lor mai chee (say that in Canto)! But the cutest was Harry's four-year-olg granddaughter; during the meeting, she'd leaned forward and whispered to me, "Why do you like the Minions so much?" and afterwards, she was handing out chopsticks to everyone! When I said sorry I can't use chopsticks can you please find me a fork she got a wooden one from somewhere for me!
• I rang PIG mum for pickup when people started clearing tables away; Dr. Esther started walking behind  me and PIG mum found us when we reached the building's back. She was mean and refused to take me to Red Rooster to share the buy one get one free deal; I've blamed her for RUINING MY INTERNATIONAL BURGER DAY. >< *grr*
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era and then 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.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll watch the Broncos match from yesterday since they won!
• Pretty sure dad know owes us THREE dinners out coz he won't tonight since he's still got mouth ulcers, the poor thing ...
• Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up before 9:45am ... don't think Rebecca's coming until 12:15pm and taking me to the NAB for physio.
• She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 4pm; I'm looking forward to reading Spare for one hour (think I've nearly finished it!) and watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 87TH time! 
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 470c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 5044. Ha, I'm just over half a normal person today. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I Googled about International Burger Day, which happens toms.
• 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: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that after service, some meeting's happening and then after that, EM are having lunch together! I've already registered and told dad I'd not be having lunch with him toms.
• Actually tomorrow's actually International Burger Day I was hoping to score a burger from somewhere but horrid PIG mum refused me! >< *sigh*
• Even worse, dad says he'll not take us for our once-weekly dinner out since he's not better yet. I understand that with PIG mum having just retired and dad only working part-time now, we've not got enough money too eat out more than once a week but dad keeps saying one dinner's owed and @ last count, it's now THREE dinners owed!! *sigh?*
• But I'm planning too watch the full match replay from the Broncos' victory tonight. XD 
• Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,

 Heylo again and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 4924 (ooh, I may pass half a normal person before the night's out! XD) but secondly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Our last stop's the Sushi Hub, where I choose an eel and egg sushi for arvo tea!
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Nisha who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, back outside Nisha immediately made me my second big mug of white tea with two sugars, blewdry my hair and reheated my lunch with extra oyster sauce before going to clean the bathroom and then eating her own sushi for lunch. Since she bought more than $17, I got a free  green tea! You can choose miso soup/green tea.
• At 1:40pm, I  used the loo once more for two tinkles, got back into Nisha's passenger seat and buckled my seatbelt. Nisha tootled me off to church to play ping pong with dearest dad.
• Today there was a manual wheelchair for me to sit on! When I asked dad how'd the wheelchair get here, dad replied the church keeps one inside the storage shed should the need ever arise for one. I liked sitting in it to play coz it's thickly padded and my bum enjoys the comfort. XD 
• Today I got coaching from Uncle James! Hopefully I'll remember how to serve properly next week~
• After dad tootled us home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat down to enjoy my delicious sushi. Then I read and READ; today I read Spare for THREE HOURS! :D I reached pg. 300 @ 4:11pm, pg. 325 @ 4:26pm and reached pg. 333 @ 5:10pm.
• After one more tinkle, I plopped online.
• When PIG summoned me for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then slowly and safely walked myself 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: leftover fried rice with lotsa extra beans and some fish. Had to get my own cutlery for the 16th time this year and PIG mum was feeling unsociable and sat on the couch watching YouTube; I didn't care: I just propped both legs up onto the footrest and  let Ela rest in my lap instead of putting her up onto the table. XD
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful 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.
• Righteo, fingers crossed I can bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final  plodding total for today, the final, final eventsa for tonight plus what's happening Sunday else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 470

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4742 steps (sweet I'm even over 4.5 grand; that doesn't happen often! XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Strength To Wait With Patience'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Refuse To Live In Fear (1)'; fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Quiet Your Heart' and fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Small But Great' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SEVENTEEN MINUTES  online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called around 1:30am this morning; I used the pot again around 7:30am 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*
• Pearl and I enjoy my once-weekly sleep-in, me waking twice more for the pot. :P After the second pot :P 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*

• Nisha announces her arrival @ 10am. After I count down my last fifteen minutes, I call I'm hungry and swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle. Nisha comes, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one mug of water, I 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 for breakfast. Since poor dad's unwell, he's not cooked his usual once-weekly ham and eggs, but instead PIG mum's baked a cheesecake and cheesecake for breakfast can't be wrong! XD
• Over breakfast, I happily read Spare for thirty minutes, finishing pg. 275 @ 10:58am.
• While Nisha closed and locked windows, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then climbed into the passenger seat of her car and buckled my own seatbelt (what I did all day).
• At Calamvale Central, Nisha parked underground, grabbed a trolley for us and we began shopping @ the Mega Discount Fruit Market before continuing @ Woolies.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 470c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2541. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I just Facebooked for two/three minutes.
• At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo 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 from 10-2. Oh, should ask mother: now that she's officially retired, will she help me up Saturday mornings instead and change Saturday's shift to 4-6 instead? That'd give CODA one hour back; she's always harping on that I've not got enough hours, etc.
• Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea with two sugars and the chance to read  for three hours! Actuallly I think I might finish the book soon!
• Unsure if dad's feeling well enough to take me to table tennis @ church ... will ask him.
• Bet he'll not take us out for dinner so fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm bulletin for the 87TH time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a lovely weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 470

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 2456 and secondly, Joini's devotional topic's 'Great Cloud Of Witnesses'. Rigfhteo, just briefly, continuing tonight's events?

• Used loo for one tinkle, popped online and watched the 6pm news  bulletin (Seven's) for the 86TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
• Used loo for one tinkle (THANK-YOU PIG mum for putting the toilet seat back down!) and had dinner: congee (why does eating antibiotics give you mouth ulcers?) with lotsa bok chooy and a few strips of tasteless beef.
• Dinner was washed down with one cup of water after which I intended to return online but dad demanded I sit on the couch and rest my eyes. I think he intended me to watch Friday night football, but I rested my eyes by closing them, just opening them for a second @ every new minute and checking I wasn't counting too fast/slow.
• At half time I immediately returned online.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for tonight, the final, final events for Friday, the final, final spam count for the weekend plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 470

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2094 steps (ha, I'm just over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from ;ast night's "God's Design In Detours"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Start  Saying 'I Can'"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Jesus Is The Answer' fifthly, the actual spam count from last weekend's actually thirteen and sixthly, the spam count for the week's twenty-six but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 86TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd consecutive last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:20am and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Nature woke me again for the pot :P around 7:45am; usually dearest dad comes and kisses me bye before leaving for work but I figure he's taking a sick day today, poor bloke.
• I wake once more for the pot :P around 9:45am before calling out to PIG mum will she help me up please? Peggy isn't coming until 10am and I don't wanna be back in bed before twelve hours have passed otherwise I'll be back in bed before twelve hours have passed and I'll feel like I'm wasted the whole day! 
• Peggy actually arrives five/ten minutes early today and finishes with my footwear, before I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who squirted some toothpaste for me.
• After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era and then walk with Peggy out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) bread, one bowl of  plain porridge, 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 passenger seat of Peggy's car and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central. Thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.
• Parking around the back, Peggy grabs a trolley for us.
• First, we pop into the Mega Discount Fruit Market for bananas.
• Next, we buy more groceries from Woolies.
• Then I sit and happily play Jewel Quest for like thirty minutes while Peggy takes the trolley and goes buy more stuff.
• Whoops, outta time, so just briefly:
• Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, Peggy made me a yummy tuna in tomato and onion  toastie with one slice of cheese. Usually she'll gimme two, but either we've just run out/mean PIG mum only left one slice for her. *sigh* @ least Peggy HEAVILY buttered one side for me. XD
• PIG mum came home when she leftt. For some reason, she made me stand to lock the door, even though I could've done that whilst seated? I don't get her: she'll often harp on @ me how I'm supposed to stretch and just when I'm gonna do that she finds ANOTHER way to make my life more difficult for me than it already is! >< *sigh*
• Tiff came and I filled out a weekly timetable from the schedule PIG mum's printed out for her. Next week, we're gonna make chicken sandwiches with a fried egg inside!
• Tiff walked behind me to the gobbling :P table before leaving. I happily read Spare for one hour, reaching pg. 250 @ 3:41. The parents came home and fed me one banana, half a rice cake a - bbl!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo and let Jacinta inside @ 7:30am before rushing off for her final day of work!
• Jacinta says good morning and asks fifteen more minutes? Pearl nods @ her and she wisely withdraws, even though he's anatomically incapable of giving 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 and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head outside to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, 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.

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 also to Jacinta who turned on Sunrise for my viewing pl;easure; the biggest news today was Tina Turner's passing.
• 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 Jacinta's car. She kindly helps me with the seatbelt (which she does all day) and then she tootles me off to the Garbo library for GCCW!

• Got home and showered, before Peter Pie and Yu Lam picked me up @ 6:40pm I had some fruit for arvo tea and used the loo for two more tinkles.
• Peter Pie parked underground; Yu Lam and I held hands and walked all the way to Momo's, where Jodie, Elena and one more girl were already waiting. Dr. Lee couldn't come coz he'd accidentally injured  himself with a pair of scissors and was awaiting stitches @ the QE2. o_O
• Oh, we pigged out on one honey soy chicken, one original chicken, one seafood pancake and one bibimbap! XD
• After dinner, Yu Lam said she wanted ice cream so we hiked all the way to Movenpick (near the upstairs food court) and bought a containerful with three different flavours, cookies and cream, hazelnut and perhaps mango?
• Back @ Peter and Yu Lam's residence I used the looo for one tinkle and then sat @ the most left of the table.
• We were supposed to continue studying that book but we spent the night eating ice cream and playing Organ Attack. I came second and learnt that contusion is another name for bruises!
• Around 9:45pm the two girls gave me a lift home. Repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~

Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3346 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWELVE MINUTES online after coming home from table tennis with Jacinta!! Righteo, just briefly, continuing today's events?

• Pearl and I slept until 9am and PIG mum helped me up.

• Had the usual breakfast and then did a stinky unspeakable.
• Went with PIG mum to Underwood MarketPlace. She refused to park around the back, which would've been less walk struggle for me, but hey.

• Found that @ KMart instead! Also bought two pairs of thicker trackpants.
• Went home and plopped online after sending out GCCW homework.

Wednesday Post 470

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 4124 (ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Joyous And Radiant; thirdly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3138 steps (ha, I'm over three grand XD); fourthly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Is Christ Worth It?'' fifthly, TWFT topic's 'Through Christ, You Can Do It' and sixthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Blessed Routine' but sevently and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I get back from table tennis!! Anyways, just briefly, let's start off with last night's events first!

• At 5:25pm I used the loo once more for two tinkles then sat by the door waiting for Rebecca, who arrived three minutes late last night co of bad traffic.
• At QUT, 'twas another paltry attendance (five) but I gave my speech! Neil evaluated me, saying I give good sound effects, good vocal variety and am humorous. We've got another meeting next Tuesday night since there's five Tuesdays in March.
• Had my pissy little UnHappy Meal from Maccas for dinner, got home and repeated the usual nightly events. Zzz~
• Today: yay, for the first time in three days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:15am~
• When dad kissed me bye before leaving for work, I made sure he was well enough to go, since last night he'd come home sick and hit the sack. Dad reassured me he'd tested negative for COVID this morning.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 469

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2514 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Jesus Knows His Sheep'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Rebuilding Your Marriage (4)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Not A Dream'. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called around 1:50am last night; I used the pot :P again this morning 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 usually calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip but happiness was snoring happily with Pearl all the way until dearest dad very considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage @ 7:45am before waking again for the pot :P.
• After dearest dad has kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed, pretended to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed his head off when Pearl body slammed him for the cheek and left for his hard day's woirk, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore; me waking for the pot :P once more about one hoou later, shortly before PIG mum begfins her noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Lena's arrival.
• After she lets Lena inside @ 9am, Lena knocks, pushes open the door and says "Good morning, Em ... fiften more minutes?" I nod Pearl @ her and she wisely withdraws, even though Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum. XD
• When Lena comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then 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 snd 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 gluggy porridge with one slice of toast very lightly smeared with avocado and perhaps sprinkled with even less salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• After breakfast, I sit once more over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the passenger seat of Lena's car, she kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt (what she does all day) and then she tootles me off to Breathe for physio with Eric.
• Physio today: 1.246km bike ride,  thirty sit-to-stands with left weight shift, 30 assisted pull ups 30 steps onto and off block with wrong foot leading and boxing! Eric was smartt: when I showed him my new Jesus plushie, he immediately recognised it!
• After physio, Lena tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza and grabs a trolley for us while I'm posting on Facebook.
• First we buy groceries from Coles (apart from cheap facial tissues PIG mum wanted chicken thighs? Wonder what she's gonna cook?) .
• Then we head down to the Pinelands Bakehouse for my once-weekly bahn mi. Lena says to order a crackling pork bahn mi you order a BBQ pork one.
• Back home, I take a nice hot 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, lunch's my delicious BBQ pork salad roll plus one big mug of the yummy green tea Aunty Nga sent me. Lena cleans the bathroom then sits and eats her two mandarins for lunch, drinking her coffee.
• Lunch finished, I'm about to go boot the computer up but Lena sends me to the loo. While there, PIG mum signs Lena off and then hurries her away, which is why I stay for two tinkles before washing and drying Era and then walking 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.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll use the loo once, head down to the gobbling :P table and read Spare until Rebecca comes and takes me to Toastmasters.
• Toms: think I'm seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture? Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
• Jacinta's taking me to para table tennis @ like 2pm? Oh, sure hope there's another birthday and more cake!
• Then: excitement: my GG are gonna celebrate my Freedom Day with me; we're having dinner @ Garbo somewhere and then going back to Dr. Lee's to continue studying that book.
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3119 (ha, I'm over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Holds You Steady'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• After I used the loo for one tinkle PIG mum tootled us home and I sat @ the gobbling :P table while she quickly made me a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch.
• Yay, dearest dad came back for lunch with me! Only I got cross with him for nabbing 1/4 of my toastie but felt mollified when PIG mum gave me one spoonful of his rice lunch in return.
• Only Rebecca didn't arrive @ 12:15pm, Lena did! She said she'd been called only this morning @ 9am. Dad immediately pushed me to leave but since I don't leave till 12:30pm I slowly finished my toastie and drank my tea before actually leaving @ 12:30pm.
• After one loo trip, I was walking down the hallway to the NAB when some Asian student asked Emily? Yeah that's me, I answered. Jin's Korean and is my student since Emily suddenly left!
• Physio today: Forty sit-to-stands with left and forward weightshift, standing cone reaching for Era with more forward and left weight shift. Before leaving, Sonia told me that Emily left coz she wasn't coping well? Hope she's okay!
• After one more loo trip, Lena tootled me home and I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Lena who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted I headed out to the gobbling :P table. Lena made me one big mug of white tea but unfortunately couldn't find any sweetener; PIG mum gave me one banana and half a plain rice cracker.
• Lena got PIG mum to sign her off @ 4pm but PIG mum kept yapping @ her and poor Lena couldn't leave until 4:02pm. Me, I happily read Spare for one hour, reaching pg. 150 @ 4:07pm.
• After one loo trip for two tinkles I plopped online and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 86TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
• When the parents summoned me for dinner, 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 wombok, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon and a few small strips of yummy BBQ chook.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful 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 wishing everyone a smashing Wednesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 469

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2893 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'God Works For You'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Rebuilding Your Message (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Tell The Story' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-ONE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 86TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once @ 1:50am, I also used the pot :P again around 6:20am, 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 usually calls hourly after the first daylight pot :P trip, but happiness was sleeping 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
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughs when Pearl body slams him for the cheek, retucks me back into bed and promises to try and come home for lunch with me, Pearl, Pijum and I all 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 exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap and a tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

• Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, 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 walked myself slowly and safely to the loo, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's of PIG mum's 4WD. She tootled me off to Vincent the physio's place to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture - she arrived the same time as us!
• Lol, PIG mum's incessant yapping made me fall asleep again. XD Luckily, I didn't snore! Besides, PIG mum she didn't talk much today; Aunty Anna was venting about her cancelled cruise.
• Afterwards, PIG mum tootled us home. I used the loo for one tinkle and walked myself slowly and safely 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.
• Yay dearest dad came home today and had lunch with me~ My lunch was a toasted tuna sandwich with one slice of cheese and one big mug of delicious Chinese tea.
• Strange, Rebecca didn't arrive @ 12:15pm? Lena did! She said CODA (Jayden) had rung her @ like 9am!
• Once she arrived dad immediately pestered me to leave but I finished both my toastie and drained the tea before leaving @ the usual time, 12:30pm.
• After one loo trip I was walking down the hallway when suddenly some Asian student called my name? When I answered that's me she said Emily has left so she'll be my student! Jin's from Korea like Lena and twenty-three.
• Physio today: Forty sit-to-stands with left and forward weightshift, standing cone reaching for Era with more forward and left weight shift.
• After visiting the toilet once more, Lena tootled me home and I took a nice hot 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 out to the gobbling :P table. Since PIG mum was upstairs showering I asked Lena please to make me one big mug of white tea with two sugars but unfortunately she couldn't find any sweetener. *sigh*
• Instead, I munched one banana, half a plain rice cake and happily read Spare for one hour, reaching pg. 175 @ 4:07.
• Before plopping online, I used the loo for one tinkle.
• Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 86TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of this post.
• Toms: Lena's minding me from 9-2 and taking me to Breathe for physio with Jacky. 
• Fingers crossed she'll lemme buy a pork salad roll from the Pinelands Bakehouse for lunch afterwards.
• Rebecca's taking me to Toastmasters toms night! I'd better ring CODA this arvo and confirm that she's definitely coming since she didn't this morning.
• Looking forward to bringing dinner from Maccas; never mind that Unhappy Meals were what I ate surely @ least THREE DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Once I'd used up my most important two hours of the day, I used the loo for one tinkle and headed down to the gobbling :P table, asking PIG mum please for some arvo tea since I'm gonna read Spare for one hour.
• She passes me one gloopy mouthful of passionfruit, half a plain rice cracker and one huge mug of peppermint tea. During and after putting that down Elf, I happily read for just over one hour (seventy minutes), finishing pg. 125 @ 3:24pm and finishing pg. 150 @ 4:10pm. PIG mum was mean and wouldn't gimme my mobile so I could write down those important page numbers and times; instead, she only gave me a small notepad and a pencil! *sigh*
• Took a nice hot shower afterwards - 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 PIG mum dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else until my bra strap needed doing up, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• After drying the loo seatt, I dry inside both ears, sit for one tinkle, stamp both feet dry, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Did my weekly backup of my important files.
• Gonna watch the second half of the Sea Eagles vs. the Raiders; fingers crossed I can bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2081 steps (ha, I'm just over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'How To Hate Your Life'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Rebuilding Your Marriage (2)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Our Choices Matter 'and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's ten. Ha, the spam count reached double digits. XD Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Actually, nature had already called once @ 11:55pm last night but obviously one pot :P trip takes less than five minutes and I was back under the covers before Sunday arrived.
• I was woken for another pot :P trip when woken by noisy PIG mum a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 6:20am; after this second pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep coz goodness knows she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Like clockwork, I'm awoken for a third pot :P trip when PIG mum goes upstairs; after one last pot :P trip this morning  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 to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's still home) befoore 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 but Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

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 church, parking underneath the main hall. I hike up to the church building, use the normal ladies loo (third cubicle, since the disabled and first two female cubicles have closed toilet lids and mean PIG mum wouldn't lift them for me) and then grab my usual spot for service on the most left.
• Yay, I got to stay seated for worship today~ I sang everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• After Peter Pie's sermon and ESS was concluded, Aggie gave me a Jesus PLUSHIE!She helped me hang it on my shoulder bag from Aunty Rebecca.
• Dr. Esther walked out with me to a chair outside and we just chatted until PIG mum came for me.
• I used the disabled bathroom once myself, grab one packet of bikkies for morning tea and sit @ the very back of the area,
• I met Uncle Norm's mum! She randomly fed me a piece of chocolate. XD
• For lunch, dad tootled us back to Hungry Jack's and got me a BBQ cheeseburger plus several chips for lunch plus an orange juice. He had a Whopper and Coke himself.
  After lunh, he tootled us home, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then 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.
•  Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online I'll use the loo once more, head down to the gobbling :P table and read for one hour. Hopefully PIG mum'll gimme some arvo tea.
• Dad had better take us out for CHINESE food for dinner and gimme ONE bowl of rice!
• Oh, also must remember to ask dad please can we eat out again toms night to celebrate my Freedom Day: 23rd May marks FIFTEEN YEARS since I was released from the insane asylum!! I've got Toastmasters that night but have GG the night after so will ask can we please eat out toms night instead.
• Toms: think I'm seeing Aunty Anna for some acupuncture and massage toms morning, coming home for lunch with dearest dad and then heading out for NAB physio in the arvo? Unsure with who, but hopefully I'll get to read Spare for one hour afterwards and then watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 85TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 4518. Sweet I'm even over 4.5 grand! XD Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Oh, I also bought an inari toopped with tuna from Sushi Hub before leaving Calamvale Central.
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Elizabeth who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I head back out to the gobbling :P table, where Elizabeth reheats the tasteless bowl of rice leftovers dad left for my lunch. Unfortunately there's only time left for one mug of tea but I don't really care coz without sweetener it only tastes like water (just coloured) anyway.
  After I sat over the loo for two more tinkles, Elizabeth tootled me off to church. Dad hadn't arrived yet, so she walked with me into the room and signed her off with my thanks and byes.
• When dad arrived, we played two/three games together. UMncle James refereed our last game: I won the first set, dad won the second and then he lemme win the last in a tiebreaker! XD
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P to munch my yummy inari with tuna on the top and drink one mug of peppermint tea.
• This was worth skipping the 6pm news bulletin for: today I read Spare for THREE HOURS! :D I reached page seventy-five @ 4:54pm, reached page 100 @ 5:42pm and finished pg. 111 @ 6:11pm.
• Before popping online I used the loo for one tinkle.
• When the parents summoned me for dinner 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 dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, lotsa soup vegetables (carrot, tomato, potato, etc.) and two tiny cubes of tasteless soup pork. 
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely bacck online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Would love lunch out with other ESS people afterwards but expecting a pissy little sth with dad @ Hungry Jack's and then a stressful arvo @ thwe hands of PIG mum.
• But dad had better take us out for CHINESE food for dinner and gimme ONE bowl of rice!!

Saturday Post 469

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4387 steps (sweet I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!)(; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'What Makes Jesus Rejoice?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Rebuilding Your Marriage (1)'; fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Patience 2B Still' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Keep In Touch' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-SIX MINUTES online after dinner!! Anyways, events for today?

• Argh, I was *one night* (three) shy of beginning an awesome sleep streak when nature nudged me awake and ordered that I use the pot :P @ 2:10am, argh! ><"
• Nature calls again when I'm awoken by PIG mum's noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs; after another pot :P trip I immediately fall back asleep because goodness knows she's gonna get very noisy again exactly one hour later!
• Like clockwork, PIG mum's noisy a-THUMPING back upstairs and getting changed for her half-day's work my wakeup call for a third pot :P trip, after which I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• PIG mum hits me with the eye goo before leaving for her half-day's work; once she's out the door 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 dearest dad's retucked me into bed, promised to stay quiet so I can sleep in peace, and dsid he'd leave me some leftovers for Elizabeth to reheat for my lunch, I happily snore, waking twice more for the poot :P until Elizabeth arrives @ 10am. Dad lets her in, enters my room and says, "Hi Em ..." I flap Pijum's ear @ him. "Fifteen more minutes, okay? Another earflap. Dad wisely takes Elizabeth away with him. XD
• OOnce I've counted down my fifteen more minutes, I call out to Elizabeth that I'm hungry and swing myself over to the pot :P for two more tinkles. Elizabeth comes, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth before drinking one mug of water before sitting 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 for breakfast. Frustration's that (1) Elizabeth didn't cook the bread yummy like I asked her please to, (2) the parents have hidden the sweetener for my tea and (3) dad's even hidden the cheese! Frustration ... *sigh*
• While I munched my egg with tuna breakfast sandwich, I read Spare for thirty minutes.
• That done, while Elizabeth closed and locked the windows I used the loo for one more tinkle. Thanks to Elizabeth who helped me buckle my seatbelt (as she did all day) but she parked @ one end of Calamvale Central and I had to hike all the way to the other end to buy a box of cheap facial tissues from Woolies and back, which is prolly why I've plodded more than 4000 steps today! 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
