Monday Post 346c

 Good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2269. Anyways, potential final, final events for today?

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of dad's 4WD and buckle my seatbelt. PIG mum piles in too and dad tootles us all down to Warrigal Square for grocery shopping @ Woolies.
• Phew today I didn't haveta walk from one end to the other and back again. Only I'd pushed Elf pretty hard yesterday and after walking about two aisles I reported to PIG mum that she was uncomfortable.
• Back home, I sat over the loo for one tinkle and then climbed back into the car since dad we're going to Anaconda and getting you a new pair of shoes, since PIG mum says your original pair's getting old.
• After catching the lift up, I sat where you can try on shoes (thankful for backrests!) and the parents went shoe-hunting for me.. I tried three different pairs meaning I had to get up three times and hike around to feel how the new shoe's doing.
• Finally the chosen pair's a beautiful blue; my favourite colour! I told PIG mum to save the old pair and I'd wear them for the three Origin nights this year. XD
• For some reason dad demanded that I immediately sit outside the store and wear the new shoes immediately? Dunno why, but no biggie.
• Back home, dad whipped up some delicious fried rice for us (pity that I only got a small half bowl while the parents both had full heaped bowls *sigh*) and PIG mum poured mugs of delicious Chinese tea for us.
• After taking my cup to the sink, I 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.
• Thanks to PIG mum who let Jacinta inside when she announced her arrival six minutes late, 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 for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was some fruit (pear/banana), three round tasty rice crackers and one big mug of green tea. Happiness was reading the book club novel for one hour (today I reached pg. 325 @ 3:12pm, reached pg. 333 @ 3:23pm and reached pg. 350 @ 3:48pm) before having the HP version of Bejeweled for twenty minutes - I passed another level!
• With five minutes left I used the loo once more for two tinkles and then signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back next Monday same time and will have spag bol for dinner tonight.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 71ST time.
• Toms: can't remember who's taking me to the NAB for physio but it's not Lena.
• Can hopefully buy a crackling pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse for lunch afterwards!
• Looking forward to spending the most important two hours of the day online after the carer leaves.
• And I've forgotten her name, but the old lady carer's taking me to Toastmasters toms night. Looking forward to getting some dinner back from Maccas; never mind  that Unhappy Meals were what I ate @ least three DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
