Tuesday Post 444

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2502 steps (ha, I'm literally just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Most Liberating Discovery'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Take Control Of Your Thoughts' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Provided Protection" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm still really owed TWO MINUTES online after someone new (Janice?) minds me for two hours!! Anyways, events for today?

•  Aww my awesome sleep streak ended this morning around 2:30am when nature called; I guess I was already missing Aunty Stella who's leaving tonight! XD
• Nature called again after the Sun had risen and following another 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*
•  Pearl and I enjoy another cuddle and snore together; me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily usual a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let her into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with only the bra strap and the tee (and that's only coz Aunty Stella's still here; wonder will she help toms since Aunty Stella's leaving tonight?) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• Usually, PIG mum comes back to finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces, but today dearest dad did that; he'd already shooed PIG mum and Aunty Stella away to the city!
• After brushing teeth, sitting over the loo for one tinkle and washing and drying Era, I walked myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

Breakfast is two (snapped up) Weet-Bix with some of that free ginger yoghurt from the Maleny Cheese factory, half a mouthful of milk, 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 pop online. When Kelly hasn't arrived by 10:10am, dad orders me to ring CODA. After ringing I wait; when nobody rings back dad says ring them again and tell the carer to pick you up @ Breathe. I'll drive you there now.
•  I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then climb into the back of dad's car, buckling my seatbelt (what I do all day). Dad tootles me off to Breathe and walks me inside and then leaves.
• Physio today: 1.922km bike ride, 36 step ups for erf, 36 single cable and rows for Ela, 36 leg extensions for Elf and boxing!
• When I walk back into the waiting room after physio, dad's still there! He drives me to the Rochedale Hungry Jack's for a quick lunch. I shake a five  - bbl!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday post 444c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3606. See? Told you I'd pass 2.5 grand! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa lettuce, lotsa boiled soup carrot, lotsa boiled soup potato, lotsa boiled soup tomato and like two thin slices 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 back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
•  At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, always Hope everyone’s having a lovely start to the week~

• Oh, should PIG mum gleefully boot me off to bed @ 9:45pm, I'll still be owed TWENTY MINUTES online!!! *sigh*
• Toms: PIG mum'll help me up, since Sandra's not coming until 10am and taking me to Breathe for physio. 
• Presuming we'll buy groceries before heading home for a shower and lunch?
• Looking forward to my most important hours of the day online and then reading the Robin Hobb novel for one hour~
• Toms night we're also farewelling Aunty Stella! Presuming PIG mum'll wanna send her off too, meaning I'll haveta come along also~
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3467 (so trusting I'll have cracked 3.5 grand before the night's out XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Took my last nice hot shower for the year after returning home - I washed and rinsed my own 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. I was all done after only 10% (just like yesterday) but happily leaned fully against the right-side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
• 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 drying the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, 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. 
• When dad summoned me over for dinner @ 8pm, I used the loo for one tinkle 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. 
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3090 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Make War With Unbelief'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Depend On G od (3)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "'Small' Miracles" and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Climbing Upwards' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-THREE MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:50am (my favourite thing about the warmer month's prolly how early the Sun rises every morning! ) 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 wake again for the pot :P just before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum returns 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 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 two (snapped up) Weet-Bix with some of that free ginger yoghurt from the Maleny Cheese factory, half a mouthful of milk, 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.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of the car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). 
• Our adventure for today was visiting the Japanese Gardens in Toowoomba! Phew dad lemme use Sparkless3 but thrice he had me get up and walk parts he said was too hard for him to push me over but come the third time I stood, he wouldn't gimme Sparkless3 back and had me walk all the way back to the car! >< *sigh*
• Vaguely recall stopping @ some shopping centre and sharing a donut with mother while stealing sips from dad's cappuccino?

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

Saturday Post 444b

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 4355 but secondly and way most importantly, I'm still owed FORTY-THREE MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! That's doable: will just leave the phone on speaker when I ring Aunty Lai for our once-weekly phone chat, meaning I can keep surfing the net while we chat~ Righteo, continuing today's events?

• For breakfast this morning, instead of my once-weekly fried egg, I had sliced banana with some of that ginger yoghurt, but I just realised I've not had my two cups of white tea with one big spoonful of honey today!!!  When I screeched that to PIG mum she replied well we're on holidays. You miss out. Huh, I feel ripped off. >< *sigh* I also popped all my usual drugs :P and drank 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?

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• Breakfast finished I climb into the backseat of the car: for today's adventure, dad tootles us off to Harbour Town! I start the day walking but thankfully dad gets me Sparkless3 after awhile. But J ay Jay's is all; it's undergoing renovations!
•    Foor late lunch we head down to Ian Dipple Lagoon for fish and chips! Record: I grabbed myself ELEVEN chips and dearest dad buys me one yummy, crumbed scallop~
• After that we try to wander the Surfers Paradise but unfortunately it starts bucketing! >< Thankfully dad wrapped me earlier in that wind jacket, so I was mostly protected from the rain but when the wind started blowing the rain into us we ducked inside a stall - 'twas one for hair braiding!
• The afternoon ended @ Hungry Jack's with about half a cheeseburger (except I don't like how HJ's cheeseburgers come with mustard) and a 1/4 chunk of a bacon deluxe but no chips and only water to drink! *sigh*
• Back home, I showered my quickest since apparently, we're nearly outta gas and our tanks won't get refilled until Monday! o_O I washed and rinsed my own hair today and also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing my shorter second-favourite song seven times, opening both eyes for the seventh time.
• I had one tinkle before I called PIG mum back; after she dried my back and the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps needed doing and both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the loo seat I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washed and dried Era and then walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• When I was summoned over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa lettuce, a small slice/two of fried egg and one chicken drumstick with most of the meat already removed.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely online, always Hope everyone has a lovely end to the weekend toms~
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4054 steps (ha, I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Poower Of A Superior Promise'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Depend On God (1)' fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Search And Rescue' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Peaceful Harvest' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-TWO MINUTES=online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 11TH time this year I've achieved one straight week of awesome sleeps! :D Nature didn't call until 7:05am, and after one pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

Friday Post 444

 Good evening! We're back from our very short trip to Marchydoore! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2861 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Power Of A Superior Promise'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Take Time To Rest And Relax'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Reckless And Careless' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's  'How Far Will Good Go?' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES online should PIG mum order me off to bed before 10:40pm!! *sigh* What a crummy end to the week. >< But just noting down that I enjoyed  my 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night - my second-best sleep for 2024 since I didn't get up until 9:30am! Actually, partway through the night Aunty Stella pulled the covers back over my feet and I was awake but too sleepy to say thanks; when I told PIG mum how nice she'd been last night she IMMEDIATELY SCREECHED I did that TWICE for you last night!! Wonder why I didn't notice? XD  But we had breakfast in our rented apartment and then spent the whole day slowly meandering back down to Brisbane, dad stopping @ multiple points back down for PIG mum and Aunty Stella to wander around while I happily played the HP version of Bejeweled. Had lunch @ the Maleny  Cheese Factory and the owner lady gave us two free tubs of about-tro-expire ginger yoghurt! Dad kept driving us back down and pulling over for PIG mum and Aunty Stella to wander out; I've passed several levels playing the HP version of Bejeweled today! XD For dinner I was  really hoping we'd have dinner @ Woka Underwood since I really wanted to choose an entree but dad decided we'd have dinner @ Malay House but @ least he lemme choose the sweet and sour pork dish and I gobbled three little pieces, yay! Came home and took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own 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 all done after only 10% but watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back and tapping the nice hot water off. Dried, creamed and rekitted I popped online and am now listening to the NRL grand qualifer match between Melbourne and the Roosters, which Melbourne's gonna win since there's only like three minutes left but the score's sth like 42-18! Unsure what's happening toms but hopefully PIG mum'll help me up before 9:45am but I'm unsure what's happening before dearest dad takes me to play table tennis @ church so perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me? Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Thursday Post 444

 Eep PIG mum BROKE the strap for Wally! ><

But I enjoyed my 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night and dad has driven us up north to Maroochydore for a quick holiday! I slept on the way up and we had fish and chips for lunch; dinner was at some Sunshine Plaza and the place wasn't called Mimo chicken and beer but Beer and Dumplings! Aunty Stella promised that we could have bingsoo tomorrow but mother says probably not because we will already be home tomorrow; it's only a very short trip! But have been wearing the mobile phone pedometer so will login today's plodding total for Thursday at 4039. Ha, I'm just over four grand. XD Anyways,  hope everyone has a lovely end to the week toms!

Cheers,

Wednesday Post 444b

 Heylo again, good evening again and one final greeting for tonight!  Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2095. Ha, I'm literally just over two grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• A 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two tinkles and then sit by the door, waiting Lena's arrival @ 2pm.Once she arrives, dad puts Sparkless3 into her car boot, I climb into the passenger seat of RIX and Lena tootles me off to table tennis after kindly helping me with my seatbelt.
• Sadly, there wasn't any cake today (and there won't be any next week either! ><) but today I played with Jo, Kim and the coach that loves PIG mum's cake.
• Leaving, there seemed this really big fire erupting somewhere? Lotsa smoke!
• 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.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, Lena gave me a tiny banana and one small mug of white tea for second afternoon tea.
• All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's,  read by Andrew Lofthouse and Melissa Downes) for the 152ND time: Greer,  Baily,  Sydes,  Chelepy, Arvier, Kenzie,  Mulherin, Fegan,  Albanese, Trump, Croucher, Azize, Shorten, Kohler (heard), Oliver, Geran,  Payne,  Dillon,  Gottlieb, Meyer, Guy, Cass, Keir (first name), Todhunter, Johnston, Starmer, Bailey, Wines, Heagney, Gene (first name), Simmons, Piotrowski, Fort, Payne, Jakob (first name), Funk, Cummins Walters,  Moore,  Oates, Benson, Quinlan, Bennett,  Arnold Papenhuyzhen,  Munster (heard), Tomlinson, Biden, Perry (heard), Netanyahu (heard) and Kohler.  Chris Kohler read the finance report.

• Toms: we're taking Aunty Stella for a short holiday somewhere! Will be home Saturday arvo/evening since Dr. Esther's WEDDING's Sunday!
• Fingers crossed for just *one* proper meal out and that I'll be allowed to use Sparkless3!

  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 444

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1987 steps (so must have cracked 2000 before the night's out); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Jesus's Pursuit Of Joy"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Nothing About You Surprises God'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Mind-Blowing Teaching'; fifthly, Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday's actually 2432 (sorry, not quite 2.5 grand XD); sixthly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Glorified Bodies' and seventhly, Joni's devotional topic for tonight's 'To New Heights' but eighthly and way most importantly, I'm  really still owed TWENTY-SIX MINUTES online after I visit the loo  once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, just briefly, lemme cover last night's events first!

• At 1:10pm I sat once more over the loo and then @ 1:15pm Kelly took me to Breathe for physio.
• Physio was 1.65km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups, 36 step up for Erf, 36 single cable rows for Ela, 36 leg extensions for Elf and boxing!
• Bought groceries with her @ Warrigal Square Woolies and then went home for a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Kelly who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Happily read the Robin Hobb novel for one hour and reached pg. 275 @ 4:23pm.
• Nisha took me to Toastmasters! There was a record attendance (twelve) Toastmaster Viktor chose Circus for the theme and gave everyone circus nicknames; I was the Minion tamer! He'd bought along a HUGE lollipop and offered it to anyone who could juggle the longest; I tried and failed immediately but Neil managed the juggling for like ten seconds, won the lollipop, lemme take a photo then even GAVE IT to me!!
• Had an Unhappy Meal with an orange juice for dinner, got home, repeated the usual nightly events and zzz~
• Today: yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Pearl and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking once for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum wakes me when she goes a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back to 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. She's mean and won't lift the toilet lid for me, meaning after I brush teeth I return to my room and use the pot :P for one tinkle before rushing and drying Era back inside the bathroom and walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.\
• Breakfast is one bowl of healthy cereal with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled with some 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* But huge thanks to Aunty Stella who went and lifted the loo lid for me~
• After breakfast, I walked 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 climbed into the backseat of the car and buckled my own seatbelt. Dad dropped off Aunty Stella and PIG mum @ Lone Pine koala sanctuary! We passed some park @ Fig Tree Pocket; PIG mum says that's where Jess Cheung lives now and when he drove past a park there dad tells me that's where the evil magpie nearly got me! o_O
• Once dad dropped them off, first he tootled me home to grab his water bottle and then we bought groceries from Warrigal Square Woolies.
• Lunch was yummy rice leftovers and was spooned down with one bowl of soup.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 443c

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's nerd plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ only 448; going out for physio next and should have a larger total to report later but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-ONE MINUTES online after I get back home from physio!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• When I was summoned over for lunch, 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.
• Yay there was rice for lunch! Meaning I'll not haveta fret that I'll not get any for dinner tonight. XD There were also several strands of two-minute noodles, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa sweet soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, one lil chunk of oven-baked crumbed fish fillet and one chunk of crumbed chicken fillet!
• Lunch was washed down with one big mug of green tea from Aunty Nga; after taking the cup 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.

• Will sit over the loo once more @ 1:10pm for two tinkles and then Kelly will take me to Breathe for physio, after which we'll buy groceries from the Warrigal Square Woolies 
• Kelly will see me home and showered before leaving @ 5pm; fingers crossed I'll get to read for one hour before Nisha takes me to physio!
• Anyways, maybe bbl but if not, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,

 Heylo again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 330 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Hope For The Worst Of Sinners'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Share Your Wisdom' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Together In Jesus' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES online after I get home this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:05am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Around 9am I wake again for the pot :P, just 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 exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. Still grumpy @ her for not helping me with the top since (1) Summer hasn't arrived yet and she refused to help until Winter started and (2) we've a guest over right now! >< *sigh*
• Dearest dad finishes with my footwear before I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely 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 another of the yummy polo buns PIG mum made with Aunty Stella recently! I also drink one full mug of water, pop all my usual drugs :P and drink one yummy mug of white tea sweetened with a lil honey. 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 bathroom, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• PIG mum and Aunty Stella have returned home from swimming and are upstairs showering; unsure will we go out before Kelly comes @ 1:15pm and takes me to Breathe for physio.
• Unsure are we buying groceries afterwards, but she'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 5pm.
• Thirty minutes after that, Nisha's taking me to Toastmasters! Mostly I'm just hoping Viktor will show me his dance moves. XD
• 'Looking forward also to bring dinner back home from Maccas; never mind that Unhappy Meals were what I ate surely three DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Toms: Lena's not coming until 2pm and taking me to table tennis; do you think there'll FINALLY be cake?? XD Wonder will we head out before that?
• Lena will see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm; fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news for the 159TH time! 
• Will haveta wolf dinner down quickly; presume GG's happening toms night still?
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 443c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1761. Anyways, final, final events for Monday?

• After publishing the previous post I had twenty-eight minutes to happily play the HP version of Bejeweled for twenty-nine minutes whilst chatting with Alison over Messenger - and I passed two more levels!
• Actually, when nature called suddenly@ 8:14pm I walked myself 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.
• At 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one last 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: PIG mum says she'll help me up before she takes Aunty Stella swimming.
• Presuming dad'll take me grocery shopping @ Pinelands Coles; fingers crossed he'll lemme buy a crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse!
• Krlly's coming @ 1:15pm and taking me to Breathe for physio @  2pm. Unsure will  we buy groceries afterwards  but I'll come home for a shower before she leaves @ 5pm.
• May haveta skip reading for one hour tonight so I can enjoy my most important two hours of the day online since Nisha's taking me to Toastmasters @  5:30pm! Loooking forward to getting some dinner from Maccas never mind that Unhappy Meals were what  I had surely three DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Monday Post 443b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 1652 (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's  'Live To Intercede'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Vaguely recall maybe buying groceries @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown next, but the highlight of my week's (even though today's only Monday) was that we had lunch @ Ho Lin Wah! PIG mum and Aunty Stella both had the A meal  (some kinda beef with rice) while I had the B meal (pork chop in tomato sauce with rice) and a cold HK-STYLE milk tea coffee. Aunty Stella had a hot version of my drink while PIG mum stuck with hot lemon water.
• After lunch, PIG mum tootled me off to APO for new straps!
• They weren't busy: I sat down and almost immediately came out, inviting us in. Aunty Stella stayed outside while mother and I hiked into his treatment room. I shucked off Elf's footwear, PIG mum showed him the frayed straps and Peter took the AFO away to replace them. He was so quick that he'd returned with new straps before I'd even finished my Facebook post saying hi! XD 
• Haaving visited their bathroom once on arrival (the sensor bin in their disabled toilet doesn't work but when I pointed that out both Peter and Gina said they've tried changing batteries without success) I left without using it again. Back home, I visit the bathroom once and then walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• PIG mum and Aunty Stella both headed upstairs for naps. When the carer announced her arrival, I walked myself slowly and safelyy to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• 'Twas Faith! So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Faith who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one yummy little banana, around half a plain rice cracker and one big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Happiness was reading the Robin Hobb novel for one hour (today I reached pg. 275 @ exactly 5:20pm) and then havng thirty minutes to play the HP version of Bejeweled - I may have only passed one level but my achievement for this week's reaching level 1800! XD
• At 5:55pm I used the loo for two more tinkles then said my thanks and byes to Faith. Unsure when she's back since she's agency but we said Merry Christmas and Happy New Year just in case. XD
• Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 158TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post. Aunty Stella tried summoning me over for dinner @ 6:14pm but I said please eat first; I'll join once I've finished watching the news.
• Once the news ended, 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 little tong vegetable, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato and three small but yummy chunks of chicken.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup (which contained more soup potato and soup carrot); 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, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 443

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1375 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Let Goods And Kindred Go'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Knowing Who You Are 'In Christ" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'No Longer A Foreigner' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed  FORTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news  bulletin (Nine's) for the 158TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am and after one pot :P triup, I'd just swung back into bed when dad suddenly enters my room and kisses me bye! I ask him sleepily, baba, where are you going? It's only 6:05am ... dad laughs, retucks me back into bed and replies off to church! Once he's gone, 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 happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly after 9am, just before PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap even though she refused to help until Winter started meaning she really should help until Spring ends and not to mention we've a guest over right now! *sigh* Meaning I immediately struggled into that before I gave myself fifteen more minutes. Originally I protested but what if Aunty Stella suddenly enters my room and finds me half-naked?? PIG mum confidently replies she won't; turns out she didn't since she was sitting @ the gobbling :P table and PIG mum was doing her favourite thing: yapping; I could hear her clearly all the way from my bedroom! XD
• PIG mum came and finished 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. Since she'd deliberately closed the toilet lid, after brushing teeth I returned to the commode for one tinkle before going back to the bathroom to wash and dry Era and then finally 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 the yummy polo buns PIG mum had baked with Aunty Stella while I was chatting with Aunty Lai and Aunty Nga last night! I also drank one full mug of water, popped all my usual drugs :P and drank another mug of tea sweetened with like a drop  of honey. 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 bathroom, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture   and massage, first dropping Aunty Stella off @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown.

• Aww, isn't Ray nice? Immediately after arriving, he walked out and welcomed PIG mum back! I miss dad take me to see him since dad would park right beside the entrance; since PIG mum doesn't drive as well as dad does, she just parks on the driveway and has me walk the longer distance in. *sigh*

• After visiting the loo for one tinkle, I lay down and got some massage and acupuncture from Ray. Luckily I'd reminded him last week that PIG mum would doubtless be super-excited to see him after one month and would have lots to tell him about her trip because I'm pretty sure she never stopped yapping to draw breath! XD My grateful thanks to Ray who always replied and kept a conversation flowing~ Not gonna see him next week since we're both holidaying but have warned him he owes me ice cream since he made Elf BLEED today! o_O Well, just one drop of blood, but Ray says he'll bring me an ice block. Personally I hope it's another pearl milk tea one! XD
  Cheers,

• Em. ^^

• Dad wanders over and passes me a little sliver of mooncake; yummy!
• At 9pm, I walk 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.

• Instead of grocery shopping, PIG mum drives us to Underwood Park; we take a hike around the lake and take a break on the sunlounges!
• Back home, we open Anna's gift box of pineapple things to eat and PIG mum lets me have two; I also happily read for one hour before taking a nice  hot shower -  I wash and rinse my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the  important numbers. Actually, I'm all done after only 10%, but happily lean fully against the right side railb and water myself for another tinkle  before calling PIG mum back and tapping the nice hot water off.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I do my  once-weekly backup of files.
• Before dinner, I use the loo for  one more tinkle.
• pity, tonight we have dinner @ SCSC but apparently Aunty Stella says we can eat @ Ho Lin Wah toms; fingers crossed!
• Back home, I use the loo for one more tinkle and then return oonlin.
• Righteo, hopefully brb after  one last tinkle with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Monday else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 443c

 Good afternoon! Apologies for ending the previous post so abruptly; I was just about to start covering events for today when dad decided let's go! Anyways, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 1836 and now take two, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:00am 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* 

• I thought PIG mum would help me up before taking aunty Stella to church with her but instead I fall back soundly asleep; PIG mum doesn't come hit me with the eye goo until 8:40am and says dad will help me up!
• Only dad's so immersed listening to 'ci mol' 9say that in Canto he clean forgets to, and I soundly snore till just after 9:45am before waking up! I immediately bang on the wall and ask dad to please help me up, but by the time I'm exiting the bedroom it's already 10am!
• I brush teeth, sit over the loo for one tinkle 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 three dry (no honey) snapped-up WeetBix with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly spread with avocado and equally lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs and almost one big 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. 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 online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. May I say 'twas refreshing not to haveta attend church for a change without being lambasted?
• Think dad falls asleep on the sofa after watching CSS? When he says let's go, I use the loo for one more tinkle, climb into the backseat of the car and buckle my own seatbelt. 
• Dad tootles us off to Rochedale Coles and grabs a trolley for us before we begin shopping. Originally, dad says we only need bread and milk but can't resist trying to wander every aisle while I try to keep the trolley straight so we can bypass all the aisles and pay but, in the end, dad still buys eight items. XD
• We then grab a quick lunch @ Hungry Jack's. Am annoyed that dad took a huge chomp from my chicken royale (the smallest chicken one there is) burger and also took a huge slurp from my orange juice before giving them to me, but I got ten chips, so am content. XD
•  Afterwards, dad tootles us home, I use the loo for one tinkle and then pop online.
• Unsure will PIG mum take us out grocery shopping later but dad had better take us out for dinner somewhere and gimme ONE bowl of rice!
• Toms? think I've got a late morning appointment to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture? Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
• Hopefully she'll take me aisle walking and grocery shopping somewhere, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• Hmm ... the roster's ended come the 17th; I may need to ring CODA toms and ask Michelle who's coming this week.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Previews were exciting: I wanna see Mufasa and Moana2 and then Transformers itself with shaky seats was way cool! Got home and showered. Peggy left @ 1pm and once PIG mum returned home I immediately walked down the hallway to welcome her home!! Spent tonight writing about how I celebrated my birthday  this year and toms I've got an early start since I'm joining EM camp for just Saturday; I'm meeting Aunty Carol and Uncle Peter @ like 7:15am @ Warrigal Square Maccas and just a pity that dad won't lemme have breakfast @ Maccas first!

Thursday Post 443

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2175 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Only True Freedom'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Have More To Learn' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Finding Wise Joy' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I get home tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 13TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:00am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am shortly before dearest dad comes and kisses me good morning, gives both eyes some eye goo and places the crop top down beside me. I ask can't I just wear the tee until Karina arrives and helps me put the crop top on before driving me to physio since we're not going out this morning but dad refuses, so I immediately struggle into that before giving myself fifteen more minutes.
• Dad finishes with my footwear before I head over to brush teeth, sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table,rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is 2.5 snapped-up dry (no honey) Weet-Bix with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled with salt, one plain rice cracker with identical filling, 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 walk myself slowly and safely back to the gobbling :P table, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. I spend the rest of the morning penning an eight-page letter to Sonia saying farewell! I also squee over an adorable Minion card that Leanne sent me; <3 the Minions! 
• For lunch, dad and I both eat rice leftovers and when Karina arrives to take me to my last NAB session for the year he immediately boots me out. Luckily Karina needs to stop and refuel her car, meaning we don't arrive *that* early. XD
• For my final NAB session in 2024, physio with Dana was Lotsa stepping for Elf and Erf on and Elf, sideways and facing forward up and down off the block, standing practice at the sim house and twenty sit-to-stands. Before leaving, I give Sonia her card and present, give her a big hug and wish her all the best~
• After one more loo trip, Karina tootles me home and I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one plain rice cracker, one yummy banana plus one big mug of honey with a lil bit of  honey. Happiness was reading the book club novel for one hour; today I reached pg. 150 @ exactly @ 4:30pm and reached pg. 175 @ exactly 5:15pm, which means it takes me thirty minutes to read twenty-five pages ... think that's considered slow?
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 443c

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @  2857 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "The Best 'Better" but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTEEN MINUTES after I get offline @ 9:45; argh, what a crummy way to end the day!! >< *sigh*  But just noting down that I saw Grace the OT for a session today before Catherine took me out to play table tennis and tonight I was @ church listening to Aggie and Kalos share! Toms I'm gonna pen a letter to Mrs. Hoppie before Karina takes me out for my final NAB session for   2024, woot!

Wednesday Post 443b

 Heylo again and please excuse the first posr; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 958 steps (so promise I'll have cracked one grand before the day's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Worship In A Lightning Storm'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Making The Right Choice' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Patient Love". Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 12TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:20am 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* Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
• Amazingly, I fell back asleep before dad came to gimme some eye goo and lay the crop top beside me again! I immediately struggled into it, before using the pot :P for one more tinkle and giving myself fifteen more minutes.
• Dad comes back to finish with my footwear before I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. 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 around three (snapped-up) dry (no honey) Weet-Bix with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast moderately spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled very lightly 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* But thanks to dad who turns Sunrise on for our viewing pleasure~
• Fingers crossed I can bbl, since I'm still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-SEVEN MINUTES online!!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• When Faith hadn't arrived by 4:10pm, I rang CODA and asked Michelle where was she? Michelle rang back saying stuck in traffic but she'll stay for two hours when she comes!

• So a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Faith who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Once the news ended, I called out and asked dad was dinner ready yet? When dad replies yes, come, 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.

Monday Post 443c

 Take three: firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1189 steps (ha, I'm over one thousand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Only Enduring Happiness'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Anchors For Your Soul (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Built In Christ'. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call till 7:50am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly after 9am, just before dearest dad comes and kisses me good morning, gives me some eye goo and lays out the crop top for me, which I immediately struggle into before giving myself fifteen more minutes.
• Dad comes back to finish with my footwear before I head 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 for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Breakfast is three dry (no honey) snapped-up Weet-Bix, one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one big 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 bathroom, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of the car and buckle my seatbelt. Dad tootles me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture; that'll be the last time for another year. Once PIG mum returns, she'll only park on the driveway and not by the fence like dad will. *sigh*
• I use the loo for one tinkle and then lay down for some massage and acupuncture. Ray doesn't poke Ela with needles this time; just Elf coz PIG mum's not here to steady Ela since she's got uncontrolled movements. Ray tells me today begins the first week of school holidays for term three and Jennifer has taken the girls to some event @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown!
• Afterwards, dad tootles us back to Ho Lin Wah for lunch, to make up for the fact we didn't eat out last night! Both set meals sound great, but dad only lets me choose one (I chose the pig neck meat one) and he orders a soupy bowl of ho fan but he eats most of it! *sigh* Fingers crossed I'll get one whole meal for myself come Wednesday~
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Faith's minding me from 4-6pm today. Looking forward to reading the book club novel for one hour and watching the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 156TH time!
• Toms: hopefully dad'll help me up not too late and we'll buy groceries somewhere together? Kelly's not coming and taking me to the NAB for physio @ 1:15pm and she'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 5pm. Looking forward to reading the book club novel for one hour and then watching the 6pm news for the 157TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!

  Em. ^^
