 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding for Wednesday now stands @ 2290. Anyways, potential final, final events for today?

  • When dad was ready to leave, I used the loo for one more tinkle, climbed into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD (Aunty Catherine was driving her this morning) and buckled my seatbelt. 
  • Dad tootled us off to Garbo to pick up his new specs! Only he parked outside Coles and had me hiking the ENTIRE length of the downstairs floor to reach Bupa Optical? Doesn't matter; since I'm using Sparkless3 this arvo for table tennis, I'd better get my step count up now.
  • I thought we were only getting dad's specs since mine need special lenses but mine were ready too! Hopefully the gold frames will inspire the Aussies to win more gold medals! XD
  • After Rico had seen us both with new specs, we hiked all the way back to Coles and bought $42.60 worth of groceries. Luckily, dad took the groceries through the self-serve checkout himself, coz the machine was on his side.
  • Fingers crossed I can bbl, since I'm still owed FORTY-SEVEN MINUTES online!!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 438b

 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, my final, final plodding total from Tuesday's 2902 (sorry, not quite three grand XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Miracles Of The Spirit'; thirdly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 401 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); fourthly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Suffering That Strengthens Faith'; fifthly, TWFT topic's "Focus On Your Sousse's Best Qualities and sixthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Beautiful One' but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I get back home from Garbo with dearest dad! Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day, I used the loo for one tinkle then headed over to the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for PIG mum to feed some arvo tea.
  • I reached pg. 200 @ 4:32pm; PIG mum tossed me one banana, half a flavoured cracker and one huge mug of green tea for arvo tea.
  • I used the loo for one tinkle before returning online to await Nisha's arrival @ 5:30pm but rang her @ 5:35pm since she's never late! Nisha cried over the phone? didn't CODA tell you? I rang them saying I'm stuck in traffic but will get to your place @ 5:45pm!
  • At the cinemas I remembered to hold onto the rail and avoided another tumble like the one with Lena on the second day of this year. XD
  • Somehow, we got D-box tickets, meaning the seats SHOOK: how cool!! :D I never knew Professor X has an evil bitchy twin sister! 
  • But since the movie cost more PIG mum hadn't left me enough money for my Unhappy Meal! Luckily, there was time, so Nisha drove me home first, dearest dad came out with the cash and I grabbed a late dinner from the Warrigal Square Maccas~
  • Back home, repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
  • Today: yay, the best way to end July:  2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
  • Around 8:45am I'm awakened for another pot :P trip when noisy PIG mum starts her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; when she lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo I ask her why the earlier start and she says she's gonna play baddy with Aunty Catherine this morning!

  • PIG mum helps exceedingly little with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and thge tee (since dearest dad's home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P once more first.

  • PIG mum comes back to finish with only 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 was one of those tuna buns that PIG mum baked yesterday but sorry, I wasn't a fan: she added lotsa pepper! ><" XD I also popped all my usual drugs :P and drank one full cup of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

  • After breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely back to the 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!

  • After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely back online, always   rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • Dad's said we're going to Bupa and getting his new specs but I think he's gone back upstairs and fallen asleep ... XD

  • Lena's taking me to table tennis @ 2pm; will there FINALLY be 40th birthday cake for Nicole's 40th?? XD

  • She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm; I'm looking forward to watching the 6pm news for the 146TH time and then attending GG @ Peter Pie's   place!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 437b

 Heylo again, good evening and probably one final greeting for Tuesday! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2295. Righteo, probable final, final events for Tuesday?

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of the day, I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat @ the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.
  • Today I reached pg. 200 @ 4:32pm; PIG mum fed me one juicy little pear, half a flavoured rice cracker and one huge mug of green tea.
  • Looking forward to the movie tonight!
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up before 9:45pm and takes me grocery shopping somewhere before Lena takes me to play table tennis @ 2:30pm, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Looking forward to watching the news for the 146TH time and presuming GG's happening?
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 437

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2122 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Plan For Martyrs"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Ease Financial Stress' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'A Meaningful Hyphen'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, awesome sleep last night!  Nature didn't call until 8:50am (my 2nd best for 2024!) 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*
  • Not long afterwards, PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not just the bra strap but the tee (coz dearest dad's @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P once more first before calling PIG mum back to finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces since I didn't want to be back in bed before twelve hours had passed and 'twas already 9:45am!
  • After PIG mum finishes with Elf's AFO and both laces, I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, just as Lena arrives. After I wash and dry Era, she walks out with me to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) multigrain toast, all my us ual drugs :P and one full cup of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
  • After breakfast, Lena dabs sunscreen over my face (she's the only carer that does this with a tissue!) and walks behind me back to the bathroom. 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 RIX and Lena tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • Physio today: 2.1km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups, 36 hamstring curls for Elf 36 rows for Ela, 36 leg extensions for Elf and boxing! Shirley said the NDIS pays for my physio and I should have some money left over to buy stuff for myself?
  • Our other stop's Pinelands Plaza to buy groceries from Coles and get my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse. Unfortunately, all the disabled car parks were taken but after Lena found a park she got a trolley for us.
  • Groceries bought, we ducked into Pinelands Bakehouse for my once-weekly crunchy pork salad roll. We chatted with Aunty Nancy and learnt that she's actually from South Vietnam, further down from Ho Chi Minh City!
  • 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 was my delicious crunchy pork salad roll plus one delicious mug of vanilla chai with milk.
  • Suddenly PIG mum rings and says dad's got a flat tyre! She's with him and he's changing it; she tells Lena just leave @ 2pm.
  • Thanks to Lena who turns the television on for me before leaving~ She's back toms @ 2pm and taking me to table tennis!
  • Once I've published this post I'll use the loo once and head over to the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for Nisha to gimme soome arvo tea.
  • Nisha's coming @ 5:30pm; we're gonna see the new Wolverine and Deadpool movie together!
  • Just a pity that PIG mum's still restricting me to an UnHappy Meal for dinner. *sigh?
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up...
  • Also hope she'll take me grocery shopping and aisle walking somewhere, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Lena's coming @ 2pm and taking me to table tennis! Still pining for cake!! XD
  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news for the 146TH time!
  • Think GG has started again? Must find out.
  • Anyways, maybe bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 437b

Heylo again, good afternoon 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 1663 steps (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Why We Don't Lose Heart"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Develop Your Awareness Of God's Presence" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Unseen Winners'. Anyways, events for today?
  • Aww, my awesome sleep streak ended @ 12:40am this morning, when nature nudged me awake and demanded I use the pot~
  • I awoke for the pot :P again around 7:45am 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*
  • Around 9am nature calls once more; shortly afterwards, PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and  soon she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's still @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • PIG mum comes back to finish with 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.

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 (as I do all day). She tootles me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture.
  • I use the loo for one tinkle on arrival and then lie down for some acupuncture and massage. My personal favourite's the shoulder CPR; I suppose PIG mum's favourite's getting to yap ceaselessly @ Ray. Actually, she controlled herself quite well today and only repeated one word four times! XD
  • After another tinkle Ray walks us back to the driveway and I say my thanks and byes. PIG mum tootles us back to Warrigal Square to buy groceries from Woolies. 
  • Groceries bought, we head home for lunch with dearest dad. I use the loo for one tinkle and then walk myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Dad cooks us two-minute noodles (boiled) for lunch, with lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup potato and two/three small thin slices of pork.
  • Lunch's washed down with one delicious mug of Chinese tea, after taking my bowl over to the sink I walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

  • At 2:30pm I use the loo for one tinkle and now I'm waiting for Tanje to come mind me from 4-6pm. She's been once before.
  • Looking  forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 145TH time!
  • Toms: Lena's minding me from 10am pm so hopefully PIG mum'll help me up first since I hate being back in bed before twelve hours have passed.
  • Lena's taking me to Breathe for physio; presuming afterwards we'll buy groceries from Pinelands Coles and fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme get a crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse for lunch.
  • Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day once Lena leaves @ 2pm and then reading for one hour before Nisha takes me to watch the new Wolverine movie @ 5:30pm! Toastmaster's meeting only through Zoom but I'm not attending since Nisha's got the shift with me. Fingers crossed for dinner out @ C Cafe afterwards but I'll settle for an UnHappy Meal ... *sigh* 
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 473b

 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 1199 steps (ha, I'm over one grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "If You Don't Fight Lust"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Unlearn Inaccurate Beliefs'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Transforming Worship' and fifthly, even though I've used this new e-mail address for nearly one month I've still not got any spam yet but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SIXTEEN MINUTES online after I get home from lunch out with Ingrid and Melody!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip I immediately tried falling back asleep, since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy really soon!
  • Sleep didn't come back quick enough; 144 breaths after I tried to fall back asleep PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not just the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's still @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. Whilst doing so, 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.

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. She tootles us off to church and parks under the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the disabled loo for one tinkle (the seat's up but so's the lid) then grab my usual spot for service and PIG mum bolts back upstairs for CSS with ten minutes remaining.
  • Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today! I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHINGF. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today's Uncle Tommy, Aggie's dad! His sermon topic's 'True Worship' and there's communion afterwards but service still ends five minutes early today.
  • After service, I use the loo for one more tinkle, grab a packet of bikkies and sit outside the worship hall. Aunty Cynthia comes over for a chat~
  • When MM's nearing starting, dad tootles me home and I plop online.
  • Having lunch then dessert with Mel and Ingrid @ 12:15pm!
  • Then Uncle Barry and Aunty Janis are coming over for a BBQ! Wonder if I can return online after eating/I haveta sit and keep  them company?
  • Toms: think I'm seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture in the late morning. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap endlessly @ him. XD

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2454. Aww, not quite 2.5 grand. Another day, perhaps, XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that afterwarrds, I'm gonna have lunch with Melody and Ingrid @ Ho Lin Wah! Fingers crossed we can have dessert afterwards, it's too cold for shaved ice but surely there's black sesame dessert soup/tong yuen (in English, glutinous rice dumplings?  somewhere nearby!
  • Most excitingly, dad's high school mates (I've suddenly forgotten their names XD, oh, Uncle Barry and Aunty Janis!) are coming to visit us toms night! Pity that we're just eating @ home ... will prolly excuse myself and return online after dinner. XD
  • Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!

Saturday Post 473

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2336 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's from last night's "If You Don't Fight Lust'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Essence Of Leadership'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'In Small Ways'; fifthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'In Small Ways and sixthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Cleansing Tower' but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTYY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, just briefly (since I'm watching the equestrian for the Olympics!), events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 8th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:50am~
  • Did a stinky unspeakable, cooked my own egg for breakfast, enjoyed my first mug of white tea with one squirt of honey and read for thirty minutes first up.
  • Went to Underwood MarketPlace to buy groceries with the parents from Woolies and have a mouthful of lunch (half a tuna sushi roll and two/three small mouthfuls of chicken katsudon rice)
  • Aunty cynthia came and we crocheted a overcoat and scarf for Pinkpink! Dunno why she named him that; he's GREEN! xd
  • Munched my sushi roll and read for another 2.5 hours; yay I read for three hours today~
  • Took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter-second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was done after only 10%, but happily leaned fully against the right side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back and tapping the nice hot water off.

Friday Post 473c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4029. Ha, I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen often! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • Before leaving for Underwood Park, 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 Catherine's car. She kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day and tootles me off to Underwood Park for a walk around the duck pond.
  • Saw lotsa dogs today! There was this HUGE lab lying down on the boardwalk; I asked his owner was he a chocolate lab on steroids? He's the BIGGEST one I've ever seen! XD His owner barked with laughter and explained he's chocolate lab cross Great Dane. XD
  • Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Catherine who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. 
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one delicious salmon in tuna and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one delicious mug of vanilla chai. Catherine leaves two minutes early since she's got some long shift @ Yerongpilly next.
  • The parents ate Japanese food out before driving me to Dr. O'Sullivan's for more Botox!
  • Lol his needle hit a reflex? I nearly kicked him smack in the face; lucky he's got quick reflexes! XD
  • Back home, I happily read for one hour and popped online after one ltinkle.
  • Happily watched the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 144TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
  • Had the usual dinner, returned online and used the loo once more  @ 9pm.
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps m up before 9:45am ...
  • She'll take me for grocery shoopping and walkies somewhere since dad's attending mens' group/sth. Perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me?
  • Aunty Cynthie's coming @ like 4pm and crocheting with me again!
  • Hoping to read for three hours toms; will give up wtching the 6pm news for the 145TH time for that!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3979 (so should have passed four grand before the night's out) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Do you Believe?" Righteo, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 7th time this year I've managed one straight week of awesome sleeps and am am on track to achieve twelve again like last year! Sure, back in 2019, 2020 and 2021 I somehow managed an incredible TWENTY-FIVE times of one straight week of awesome sleeps but PIG mum says that's not important; what's important's that I fall back asleep afterwards and don't wet the bed.
  • Nature didn't call until 7:35am, 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*
  • Pijum, Pearl and I happily snored, me waking up once more shortly before PIG mum starts her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and waiting for Catherine's arrival.
  • Only she doesn't turn up? PIG mum rings CODA; Jayden rings back saying sth got muddled and she's not coming till 10am!
  • PIG mum helps me up; I brush teeth, use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • I started munching breakfast (one bowl of plain porridge and one slice of dry - unbuttered multigrain toast) and rang CODA again @ 10:10am, asking Jayden/Jamie where's Catherine?? 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*

  • At 2pm I'm seeing Dr. O'Sullivan for more Botox! I suppose the left limbs have gone wrinkly again. XD
  • Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online afterwards, fingers crossed I can read for one hour and then watch the 6pm news for the 144TH time!

  • After one loo trip, I popped online and happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 143RD time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post. PIG mum got dad to have dinner without me @ 6:43pm. That's alright; I already saw him this morning and this arvo when I got home from physio.
  • Once the news ended, 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 with lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, two small slices of soup beef and one small chunk of soup chicken/pork. I happily propped both legs onto the footstool and let Ela sit in my lap while I ate~
  • 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.

Thursday Post 473

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday actually stands @ 1693; secondly, Joni's devotional topic's from last night's 'Be Prepared'; thirdly, today  I've been hard @ work plodding  steps; fourthly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Jesus Keeps His Sheep'; fifthly, TWFT topic's "Don't  Be Afraid Of Failing (3)' sixthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Really Live' but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the  143RD time!! Anyways, let's start off with yesterday's events first!

  • After lunch, Lena took me to play table tennis! I played with Rhonda, Kim and Gary but pity there wasn't any cake. ><  XD
  • Back home I showered my quickest coz Dr. Esther and  David were giving me a lift to the combined GG group social! Yay there was still time for a mug of peppermint tea, one banana and one more loo trip before they arrived~
  • We'd ordered takeaway from Rice Paper Vietnamese! The stir fry chicken ho fan (no nuts)( plus a Vietnamese milk tea for me, yum yum! 
  • Afterwards, someone walked behind me once to the loo and I managed fine by myself.
  • David got the dinner armchair for me; I  sat outside and played the really cool word game like Scattergories! 'Twas hard to not answer when other teams were trying to guess words. XD
  • Around 9pm everybody left; Peter Pie and Yu Lam tootled me home.
  • Repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
  • Today: yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:10amam when PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs woke me up; 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*
  • PIG mum let herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo when suddenly the phone rang! I bet 'twas CODA saying Karina was running late and sure enough, I was correct~ 
  • Karina arrived shortly after I'd counted down fifteen more minutes. When she arrived, I immediately used the commode for three more tinkles since I'd already given myself fifteen more minutes and didn't need another fifteen!
  • After we gotr me kitted, I went over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. Thanks to her who squirted me some toothpaste.
  • Teeth brushed, I sat over the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era and then headed out to the gobbling :P table with Karina.
  • Breakfast was one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) multigrain toast, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Karina who turned on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure, and over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. 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*

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 and she tootles me  off to GCCW! I use the loo once on arrival and then find out today we're in Meeting Room Two.
  • Ten attended today, and not only did Tammy help me once to the bathroom for morning tea break, she even brought donuts! fter I enjoyed a chocolate one, Daniel got me another one with banana icing! :D I'm just rather creeped out that homework for next topic's writing a eulogy! o_O
  • Karina took me once more to the loo and then bought me my gyros from that Pide place; unsure why my Facebook post didn't load? 
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 473b

 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, my final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 2879; secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'A @Quiet Time'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Don't Be Afraid Of Failing (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Our True Refuge's God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-THREE online after I get back from table tennis! But argh, attending the GG combined social tonight and will miss out on this time. >< *sigh* Anyways, let's start with yesterday's events first!

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day, I sat @ the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea. 
  • The new Colleen MacCullough book's fantastic! I reached page twenty-five @ 4:39 and reached page fifty @ 5:27pm!
  • Nisha took me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm and only five attended last night! They prolly won't be any meeting for the 5th Tuesday next week so I'm hoping dad'll lemme go see a movie! I gave a very long speech about the Camry incident and Neil snarked @ me for swearing again. XD
  • Got my UnHappy Meal with an orange juice for dinner, got home and repeated the usual nightly events before hitting the sack. Zzz~
  • Today: yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 8:15am 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*
  • Shortly after that, PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's @ home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • PIG mum returns only to finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Breakfast's one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) multigrain 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*
  • After breakfast, 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. 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 back of the car and buckle my seatbelt. The parents climb inside also and dad tootles us somewhere nearby since I've got an appointment to see Grace the OT!
  • Dad drops PIG mum and I off near the entrance; we take a seat inside the waiting room. Looks like some GP clinic?
  • Grace wears scrubs @ work! We walk with her into some office and PIG mum says bye.
  • Today I just completed a series of tasks and answered a series of questions for Grace. She used this really cool phrase, sth like tick and flip? 
  • Grace even made me a cup of white tea with two sugars before seeing me seated back waiting outside for the parents @ 11:45am.
  • I saw them when they arrived and waved but they didn't see me until they entered the building.
  • Someone Grace saw them too and came out to talk with PIG mum! Today she just got lotsa outcome measures; think I'm seeing her again next next month? Every two months, anyway; weekly I'm just seeing Dorrie~
  • Back home I used the loo foor one more tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Heading over for lunch @ 1pm and then Lena's taking me to table tennis @ 2pm! Did PIG mum want me to shower first? Because once I get home Dr. Esther's taking me to the combined SG social @ 6pm!
  • Toms: Karina's coming @ 7:30am and taking me to GCCW! She'll buy me a gyros to eat while she drives me to the NAB for physio.
  • But don't think I've got anything happening after she leaves; looking forward to spending the most important two hours of the day online, reading for one hour and watching the 6pm news for the 143RD time!
  • Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
  • Anyways, hope everyone's having a smashing  week!

Tuesday Post 473

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2588 steps (ha, I'm literally just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Preach Too Yourself'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Don't Be Afraid Of Failing (1) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Time To Party'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
  • Around 9am I'm woken for  another pot :P trip when 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 not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes  first.
  • PIG mum comes back to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit 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) multigrain 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*
  • After breakfast, Lena smothers my face in sunscreen with a tissue and then walks with me back to the bathroom. 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 RIX, remembering that he's navy blue and not black! XD Thanks to Lena who helps me buckle my seatbelt (as she kindly does all day) and then she tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Funnily enough, all the parking spots are taken today, and she parks sideways just beyond the driveway; better for me, since it's closer to Breathe! XD
  • Physio today: 2.348km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups, 36 step up for Erf, 36 cable rows for Ela, 36 calf pulls for Elf and boxing!
  • Afterwards, Lena tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza but even though we're buying groceries from Coles parks nearly halfway along the row of shops since PIG mum didn't gimme the parking permit today. >< *sigh*
  • Lena grabbed a trolley for us, and after we'd bought groceries I stopped @ Pinelands Bakehouse and grabbed myself a crunchy pork bahn mi from Aunty Nancy.
  • Back home, 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.
  • Whoops, only fifteen minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my yummy crunchy  pork bahn mi and one delicious mug of vanilla chai.
  • I signed  Lena off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm; she's back exactly twenty-four hours later and taking me too play table tennis!
  • Once I've used up the most   important two hours  of my day I'll go read for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.
  • Nisha's taking me to Toastmasters tonight; for once I'm actually looking forward to the UnHappy Meal because hopefully it's still Minion-themed!
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up toms morning and takes me grocery shopping somewhere else expect a supper-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Lena's taking me to table tennis @ 2pm and I hear there's gonna be 40TH birthday cake!
  • Will get home and shower quickest coz David and Dr. Esther are giving me a lift to Winston's and Tracy's place for the combined GG social (BYO takeaway dinner) then Peter  Pie and Yu Lam are dropping me back home afterwards!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2319. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After reading and sharing the She Reads Truth daily devotional, I finished my first draft of my GCCW homework that's due this Thursday.
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Toms: PIG mum's helping me up and then leaving for her Pilates class when Lena arrives @ 10am. Lena will take me to Breathe for physio @ 11am, 
  • Presuming we'll buy groceries from Pinelands Coles and get my once-weekly crackling pork bahn mi from Pinelands Bakehouse?
  • Looking forward to my most important two hours online after Lena gets me home, showered and leaves @ 2pm.
  • Fingers crossed I can read for one hour after spending my most important two hours of the day online!
  • Nisha's taking me to Toastmasters toms night although we've already established that there's only gonna be five present. XD Neil had better remember to bring snacks! XD
  • Looking forward to grabbing dinner from Maccas afterwards, never mind that UnHappy Meals were what I ate surely THREE DECADES ago! *sigh* Personally though, I'm still hoping that they're Despicable Me themed!!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^

Monday Post 473b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2274 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Working For The King'. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • When the Sharon person hadn't arrived by 4:10pm I asked dad to please pass me the phone coz I needed to ring CODA and ask where she had gone, only dad said get the phone yourself! I'd left my mobile on the gobbling: table so went back, sat down and rang CODA. Jayden answered and said he'd ring Staffing Options and try find her; he rang back and said that she's sick but didn't tell us! >< Can someone else please come help me? I asked. He said he'd look and later rang back saying Catherine would come 5-7, phew! 
  • PIG mum took dad to get his puffer script, while I returned online before letting Catherine inside @ 4:57. Lol, wonder why she didn't knock/ring the doorbell? I answered the door because I could hear her tugging the locked door handle!
  • So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Catherine who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one yummy banana, about half a tasty cracker and one mug of peppermint tea. Catherine originally was gonna gimme the huge mug but I taught her that's for white tea only.
  • Happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 142ND time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post, although somehow, I've left out the weather forecast? But eep, it's only gonna be six degrees in Mt. Gravatt toms morning!! ><" 
  • When Catherine left @ 7pm I used the loo for one tinkle and then plopped online.
  • When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup tomato, one tiny chunk of chicken and two wee chunks of tasty pork.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my 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.
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
