 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2885. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm, I used the loo for one last tinkle before sitting down @ the gobbling :P table and asking PIG mum for the second half of my bahn mi. She said ask dad and phew, he gave it back! 
• After munching this super-crunchy second half, I 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.
• Toms: it's CHRISTMAS!  Attending CM Christmas service with the parents @ 10am but not going to the Slams' place afterwards since they're suddenly flying back to Japan! So perhaps a quiet Chris and expect a super-pissy plodding total from me? Oh, planning to take one age-length shower toms. Like I told the psychologist many years ago, I stopped washing/brushing my age number once I reached twenty-five but Christmas is one of three days in the year I can enjoy a long shower. XD
• Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2669 (See? Told you I'd crack 2.5 grand! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Christmas Eve: Silent Night, Holy Night." Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

•   When PIG mum summoned  me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, and some salmon. Oh, and one tiny piece of some soup white meat.
• 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.
• Only to realise I'd clean forgot about the second half of my  bahn mi! But PIG mum won't gimme it! ><
• Planning to use the loo once more @ 9pm and then sit to wait for the other half of my bahn mi. 
• Toms: originally we were attending Christmas service @ church and then spending the arvo with the Slams but suddenly they're flying to Japan instead! So perhaps a very quiet Christmas this year; no biggie~
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one more loo trip and the second half of my bahn mi with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else MERRY CHRISTMAS for Wednesday!!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 2463. Lol, sure I'll have cracked 2.5 grand before the day's out! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• After publishing the previous post, once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat to read for the remaining forty-one minutes (since I like reading for one hour @ least whenever possible) and wait for PIG mum to gimme the bahn mi I'd bought for arvo tea.
• Lol, she only lemme eat HALF my crunchy pork salad roll; she'd better gimme the other half for dinner!! >< *sigh*
• I also drank one huge mug of green tea and happily read Kylie Chan's Demon Child for just over one hour, reaching pg. 150 @ 4:47pm and finishing pg. 175 @ 5:41pm.
• One more tinkle for me before I returned online.

Tuesday Post 495

Good afternoon and Merry Christmas Eve! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2118 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Indescribable Gift"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Lessons From The Life Of Joseph (2) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Light Of Christ.' Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 7th awesome consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the 17TH time this year I've scored one straight week of consecutive awesome sleeps! :D Like the past three days, nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

   

• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more the pot :P once more shortly before 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 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 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 dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly smeared with some 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*

• Monika arrives two minutes late today but smothers me with sunscreen before walking behind me back to the bathroom, where I sit over the loo proper. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the passenger seat of Monicah's car and she tootles me off to Breathe for my final physio session for the year! Thanks to her who helps me with my seatbelt all day.

• At Breathe, I tell Winnie about my wry neck problem immediately and she spent almost the entire session treating me for it. First I just sat on the chair then she had me lie tummy up on the plinth and finally she had me flip and lie tummy down on the plinth. I asked her am I somehow sleeping with incorrect posture and Winnie just laughed, saying no, it's not your fault. You're probably just too excited for Christmas. XD

• Then I finished with boxing before I was fed three/four slices of pizza with two/three slices of garlic bread! Isn't Shirley sweet: originally she said no pizza for your carer but then she went and brought Monicah over a plate too!

• After using the ambulant cubicle, Monicah tootles me off to Pinelands Plaza and I buy my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from Aunty Lisa and give her a Christmas card too~

• Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Monicah who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I head out to the gobbling :P table to read for one hour. At 2pm, I sign Monicah off with my thanks and byes.

• When PIG mum and dearest dad get home I ask her can I eat my bahn mi for arvo tea but when she snaps no I plop online instead.

• No plans for the rest of the day but it's CHRISTMASD toms! :D We'll attend service @ Redeemer/apparently BCAC's holding a Christmas service this year?

• Don't have any plans for the rest of the day ... think we've been invited to the Slams?

• Anyways, hopefully bbl else MERRY CHRISTMAS for the 25th toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 495c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! First, Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3455 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-TWO MINUTES online should PIG mum really order me off to bed @ 9:45!! >< But hopefully she's too absorbed baking her cake for Winnie and Shirley and won't notice until 10:08pm. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I started reading and sharing Facebook memories.
• 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: it's Christmas Eve! PIG mum'll help me up first, since Monicah's not coming till 10am and taking me to physio @ Breathe. Sheesh, PIG mum has me enduring blasted physio all the way up till CHRISTMAS EVE! ><"
• But after physio I'm staying for a pizza party and mother's baking them a chocolate cake!
• Think I'm free after Monicah leaves @ 2pm ... unless BCAC has sth happening Christmas Eve? I know PIG mum demands we attend church for Christmas but I don't remember Christmas Eve ... anyhow, I'm looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online, reading for one hour and watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 212TH time!
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday and Christmas Eve toms!
  Cheers,

• After watching the news, I used the loo for one tinkle and then climbed into the backseat of the car. Thanks to PIG mum who helped me buckle my seatbelt tonight since I've got crappy night vision.
• For the last time this year, we had dinner @ Ho Lin Wah; after tonight they're not reopening until @ least Jan the 3rd!
• We shared one set meal and one sweet and sour pork with rice; dad ordered himself a 'red bean ice' (say that in Canto) and lemme enjoy just over one mouthful of hot HK milk tea; I also drank one cup of Chinese tea.

 Heylo again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ exactly 2600. Ha, I'm over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• Once I'd used up the most important two hours of the day for myself, I used the loo for one tinkle and then sat to read the Kylie Chan novel for one hour and wait for PIG mum to finish napping and gimme some arvo tea.
• Today I reached page seventy-five @ 3:31pm. PIG mum eventually gave me one deliciously juicy pear, half a plain cracker and one huge mug of green tea. After reading for one hour, I happily played the HP version of Bejeweled and finally reached level 2400!
• At 4:30pm I went and took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also sang 20$ of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I'm all done after only 11%, but happily leaned fully against the right side-rail and watered myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water off and called 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 my bra strap needed doing up, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• Once I dried the loo seat I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry, dried inside both ears, washed and dried Era and then walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2078 steps (ha, I'm literally just over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Birth Of The Ancient Of Days'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Do Not Disturb' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Tangible Love'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum woke me with one loud THUMP upstairs @ 6:10am and after one pot :P trip, I immediately fell back asleep since I knew for certain she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
• Only I fell back asleep so deeply I didn't wake again until PIG mum let herself into my room @ 7:10am! She hit me with the eye goo, I used the pot :P again and then she helped me exceedingly slight 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 came back to finish with absolutely nothing exceptElf'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 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.

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 climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum gets into the car herself and tootles us off to church, parking outside the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the disabled loo myself (the seat was up, but so was the lid and I couldn't be bothered checking out the cubicles in the normal ladies loo lest PIG mum blame me for her arriving late for the Canto service), wash and dry Era before grabbing my usual spot for service on the most left.
• Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for all four songs, but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh* 
• Speaker today was Peter Pie with another sermon from his Prepare Him Room series. After service  next week, we're hitting the beach!
• Service ended thirty minutes early today; after PIG mum collected me, I used the normal ladies loo's first cubicle (since the disabled loo's lid was closed but horrid PIG mum was mean and wouldn't lift it for me >< *sigh), washed and dried both hands, grabbed a small packet of honey-flavoured Tiny Teddy bikkies and sat outside the service hall. PIG mum FINALLY lemme wear my medals!
• But she was mean and wouldn't let Peter Pie take me and others out to lunch together. *sigh*
• Meaning dad and I had lunch @ the Rochedale Hungry Jacks. The smallest chicken royale burger for me, plus exactl ten chips and a small orange juice. Julz popped along and ate lunch with dad and I and then Uncle Danny came along too; he and dad had a yap together while I happily played the HP version of Bejeweled.
• After dad tootled us home, I used the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era 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.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll use the loo for one tinkle and then read for one hour while waiting for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.
• Wonder if dad'll take us for dinner @ Ho Lin Wah again? I'm content already since I had my HK-style milk tea with Deb on Thursday ... XD
• PIG mum says she'll take me grocery shopping since Ray's not coming back until next year!
• But Jess, Aunty Carol and bubs are coming for their once-yearly visit @ 3pm!
• The roster says Lena's minding me from 4-6pm; will she finally make it??
• Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news for the

•   Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Well, I guess the special thing will be that it's the last service before Christmas?

Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 5020 (ha, I'm just over half a normal person today XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "If I Had Been There" but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!!

Had grabbed myself a Kylie Chan novel to continue reading (since mean PIG mum wouldn't) but noted down I planned to read for one more hour when PIG mum ordered I shower first.
• Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also sang 15% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I continued reading until dinnertime, reaching pg. twenty-five @ 6:41pm and noting down I wanted to read for twelve more minutes afterwards when dinner was called.
• Dinner tonight: rice, one HUGE chunk of choko, lotsa soup vegetables (potato, tomato, carrot) and one chunk of leftover BBQ meat from the parents' Christmas party last night. Either parent also accidentally slipped a chunk of lamb onto my bowl by accident; I didn't mention that and just swallowed it.
• Read for another twelve minutes after dinner and reached page fifty @ 7:22pm; it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
• Used the loo for one tinkle 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.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one moore tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plg total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday, else looking forward to seeing everyone toms @ church!

Righteo, probable final, final events for tonight?

• After she left, I munched arvo tea (one banana, half a plain cracker and one huge mug of green tea) and happily read the book club novel for one hour, reaching pg. 300 @ 3:40pm exactly!
• After using the loo for one tinkle, I plopped online and watched the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 209TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post. Deb arrived @ 6pm to mind me and parents went to their Christmas party!
• News over, I used the loo for one tinkle and Deb locked up, before she tootled us off to Ho Lin Wah for dinner! Perhaps she already knew the place would be packed, since she grabbed the first available spot just past the fruit shop and I crossed the road to reach the restaurant. 
• The A meal was some kinda yucky black bean thing but I enjoyed the B meal, which was white sauce with chicken and vegetables rice; I enjoyed that with a HK-style milk tea coffee
• After dinner I hiked  next door to Gotcha since  Deb said I had  enough for a bubble tea, but what kinda self-respecting bubble tea store doesn't sell chocolate  pearl milk tea?? In the end, I had chocolate milk with pearl; the dude behind the counter said 'twas like a milkshake! Waiting for my drink I sat outside on the bench; 'twas already occupied but when the man saw me coming towards him, he was a gentleman and immediately vacated the seat for me! I toook a gamble and said xie xie; phew he immediately replied mei guan xi!
• Back home  I used the loo once  but used  it again when Deb left; not seeing her till next year!
• Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up not too late! Looking forward to my two big mugs of white tea with sweetner, my arvo tea sushi and toms I'm planning to finish the book club novel! Alsoo looking forward to playing table tennis  with  dearest dad toms arvo~
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,Em. ^^

Friday Post 495

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3515 steps (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Christmas Is For Freedom'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Doing God's Will" and fourthly', Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Truth Never Changes' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-NINE MINUTES online  after I watch the 6pm news  bulletin (Seven's) for the 209TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, what better way than to end the week than with my 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to tip bins @ 6:20am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am shortly 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 before going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
• Once PIG mum lets Peggy inside @ 9:30am, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door and announces good morning. When I nod Pearl @ her, she next states fifteen more minutes. Another nod from Pearl and she thankfully removes herself; phew, since Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
• When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle and we get me kitted before I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's squirted me some toothpaste already. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, who tells me she had her two usual hardboiled eggs with salt for breakfast.
  
• For my breakfast I have one bowl of Minus :P very lightly sprinkled with some special K, one slice of dry (unbuttered) bread lightly sprinkled with salt and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*After breakfast, Peggy accompanies back to 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 backseat of Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking underground. Much thanks to her who helps me with my seatbelt both ways.
• Peggy grabs a trolley for us and we buy groceries from Woolies. Don't think PIG mum needed anything from the Mega Discount Fruit Market today.
• Groceries bought, Peggy left me with an evolved pack of CC's (cone shaped, sour cream and chives flavoured!) and goes buying fresh produce from the Mega Discount Fruit Market. I happily play the HP version of Bejeweled while she's gone and pass two levels!
• Afterwards, Peggy tootles me home and I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today.  Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was a yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one delicious mug of vanilla chai sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of honey. While I munched lunch, Peggy setup the Chopping Board of Death for my last cooking session for 2024 with Dorrie!
• At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two more tinkles. PIG mum tried to shoo Peggy out the door exactly @ 2pm but I called her back to say bye and Merry Christmas since I'll not see her again until the 27th!
• When Dorrie arrived I came outta the loo and then sat @ the gobbling :P table to cook our last adventure for 2024, mango chicken! Dorrie was very noble and cut the onion for me; this time, I made sure the fan was flowing AWAY from me; last fortnight, the fan blew onion fumes to me and made me teary while I was cutting chicken! XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 495d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3679. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, @ 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm. Will remember to swing back into bed after only one tinkle into the pot :P since it'll already be 9:45am!
• PIG mum's busy baking a cake so she can't be bothered deciding what we can do toms.
• But since Dorrie's coming for one last cooking session she'd better send Peggy and me buying ingredients!
• Fingers crossed I can read for one hour after Dorrie leaves and can watch the 6pm news  bulletin for the 209TH time!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to  the weekend toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 495c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3565 (ha, I'm over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Laughing Lord?' (Sounds familiar; have I somehow reopened an old devotional?) Anyways, continuing today's events?

• I rang PIG mum for pickup, and she sent dearest dad to collect me; back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Thanks to PIG mum who let Debbie inside when she announced her arrival two minutes early, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door.
• So a  nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Debbie who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one banana on steroids, about half a plain cracker and one small mug of green tea. Originally PIG mum had put the teabag into the huge mug, but I explained to Deb that's the white tea with sweetener mug; since you can't find it, please just gimme the small mug.
• Happiness was reading for one hour (today I reached pg. 250 @ 4:55pm and reached pg. 275 @ 5:31 before having twenty minutes to happily play the HP version of Bejeweled; somehow, I passed another three levels!)
• At 5:55pm I sat over the loo for two more tinkles before signing Deb off with my thanks and byes. She's back toms night since the parents are attending some Christmas party!
• Happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 208TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's first post.
• When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle 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.
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup potato, a couple small chunks of soup beef and a few thin strips of BBQ chicken, which I obviously saved for last.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Anyways, hopefully brb after one last looo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 495b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3339 (aww, how come I couldn't have walked six steps fewer?? 3333 would've looked cooler! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Be Holy'. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Breakfast is one bowl of the less yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of dry (unbuttered) bread very 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.

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 (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles me off to the Garbo library for the GCCW Christmas party!
• I use the loo once on arrival; coming out, I ask the passing librarian is the GCCW Christmas breakup party in Meeting Room One/Two today? Two! She brightly replies, and I head in there. Suddenly, Alison arrives; it's so good to see her! I've not seen her all year!
• As usual, I grab the most left seat. Ken announced that he'd won the comp (as usual; I came second last and Bob last meaning we'll switch places next comp XD, we played word games, pigged out on party food and cleared by 11:30am! 
• Can't remember did I visit the loo once before going home, but I did @ 12:40pm before PIG mum tootled me off to Papa Chicken to meet Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace for our term four lunch!
• Unsure why she parked so far away but I sat inside since there's aircon inside! 
• When Reverend Chris and Pastor Chris arrived I immediately gave them the Christmas card I'd written them and PIG mum took her leave, saying ring me like twenty minutes before pickup.
• Today I chose the honey soy fried chicken rice bowl with a fried eff! Thanks to Reverend Chris who wandered next door to Excellent Cup and brought me back a pearl milk  tea; unsure why then don't sell chocolate milk tea?? Reverend Chris had an omelette with chips and Pastor Grace ordered a rice bowl like me.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night!

• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P one hour later when noisy PIG mum wakes me with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap 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.

• It's ending @ 11:30pm not midday since something else has booked the room.
• Meaning PIG mum's gonna take me home but drive me back out again to have Term Four lunch with Reverend Chris and Pastor Grace! Originally we were  gonna eat @ Malay House but suddenly Pastor Grace says let's try Papa Chicken! 
• Unsure who's minding me from 4-6pm; the roster says TBA but Karina says it's not her? Have just emailed Michelle asking her to please find out who's coming and letting me know.

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3592. Ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand. XD  Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• Gwenda massaged Ela briefly and then just played with her mobile, telling me that her son's a actor and does all the crowd cameos (are they called bit parts?) for movies!
• At 5:55pm I sat over the loo once more for two tinkles and then signed Gwenda off with my thanks and byes. She left two minutes early but like I was gonna complain: she'd arrived like eight minutes early! 
• Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 207TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's third post.

Wednesday Post 485d

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5593 (aww, walking sixty steps fewer would've given me 3333, which looks cooler! XD and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Laughing Lord?' Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Gwenda came almost ten minutes early, not Lena! Thanks to PIG mum who opened the door for her, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself.
• So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Gwenda who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. She's only been with CODA nearly one year; when I saw her once around the beginning of the year, I was one of her first clients!
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one juicy pear, about half a plain cracker and one huge mug of I'm not sure what, some pretty disgusting herbal tea. Happiness was reading the book club novel for one hour (today I reached pg. 200 @ 4:52, the book title appears on pg. 208, I finished pg. 222 @ 5:27pm and finished pg. 225 @ 5:31pm. Then I had just over twenty minutes to happily play the HP version of Bejeweled and I passed three more levels! Glenda just gave Ela a  - bbl!

Wednesday Post 485c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3052. Lol, I'm literally just over three grand. XD Anyways, potential final, final events for today?

• Unsure what the parents were doing upstairs but it wasn't till past 11:30am that dad said let's go!
• After using the loo for one tinkle, I climb into the backseat of the car and buckle my seatbelt. Dad tootles us off to Rochedale Coles but since he's already redeemed that twenty-thousand Fly Buys deal where you buy over $60 for four consecutive weeks, today he only bought just under $48. Only his Fly Buys wouldn't work? Think PIG mum'll help him with that tonight.
• Back home, I sat over the loo for one tinkle and then sit @ the gobbling :P table.
• For lunch we have plain two-minute noodles (mine were plain since I don't eat spicy food and the seasoning's spicy) with lotsa soup vegetables and two thin slices of pork/chicken.
• Lunch is washed down with one delicious mug of Chinese tea, after taking the cup to the sink and using the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era before walking myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Should Lena really come and mind me from 4-6pm, I'll give her my XMas Greetings to read since she gets an indirect mention!
• Will hopefully watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 207TH time!
• Toms: attending the GCCW Christmas party! Presuming that's the last one I'm attending before Christmas actually arrives?
• Since that ends @ 11am PIG mum will take me home first before driving me to meet Reverend Chris and Pastoor Grace for our term four lunch? Still haven't decided where we're meeting yet, but fingers crossed for Korean Fried Chicken/HK-style milk tea!
• Karina's minding me from 4-6pm.
• Unless dad takes us out for dinner together toms night, I'm looking forward to watching the 6pm news for the 208TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 485b

 Heylo again, good morning 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 only been hard @ work plodding 550 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Greatest Salvation Imaginable' thirdly, TWFT topic's 'A Heart For Others' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Who We Listen To' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWELVE MINUTES online after I get back home later!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night? For some reason, today seems like Monday?? XD Nature didn't call until 6:20am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 

•  Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9:15am before calling out to PIG mum could she please help me up yet? I wanna be outta the room by 9:45am! She comes saying she was just about to rouse me when I called (sure XD) and helps me 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. Once I've done that, I call PIG mum back to please 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 is one bowl of the less yummy *(so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very 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*
• 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 online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Silly Wally's not given me anymore steps since this arvo, but PIG mum says I may take last Tuesday's total for tonight so logging in Tuesday's final, final plodding total @ 4227.

• After publishing the previous post, I continued sending my XMas Greetings around.

• Toms: hopefully PIG  mum helps me up not too late and takes me for walkies somewhere else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• Lena's rostered down to mind me from 4-6; wonder will she finally make it/will CODA ring toms morning around 9am and say who's coming?

 Good evening! Silly Wally's not given me anymore steps since the previous post so I'll just note down Joni's devotional topic's 'Worshipping God Face-On' and continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents summoned me over for dinner @ 7:28pm, 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 garlic stem/shoot, one piece of steamed fish, one small slice of pork, one small slice of beef, one small slice of chicken, lotsa soup potato and lotsa soup carrot.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing Wednesday ahead!
  Cheers,

Tuesday Post 484

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3374 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Most Successful Setback"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be Willing To look Foolish' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Jesus Our Rescuer'. Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, phew I'd just scored my 16TH time achieving one consecutive week of awesome sleeps last night since my idiot bladder immediately demanded attention and ruined it around 2am this morning! >< XD
• Nature called again around 6:20am; after 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 happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, 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.
• 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 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 dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P and one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very 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*

   

• When Monicah announces her arrival, PIG mum lets her in. She walks down the hallway and bids me good morning, but I only wave, gesture and go, "Mm mm mmm." That stood for hi, good morning. "Eating breakfast?" Monicah next asks me, and this time I gesture @ the cereal bowl. After I've swallowed the mouthful, I grin, apologise for ignoring her but explain my mouth was full so I had to swallow before saying hello and bidding her good morning. XD

• After I've finished eating breakfast, Monicah slathers me with sunscreen and walks behind me back to the bathroom before going to wash my breakfast things. 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 Monicah's car and she tootles me off to Breathe. Thanks to her who kindly helps me with my seatbelt all day.

• Physio today: 2.014km bike ride, 36 leg-assisted pull-ups, 36 v cable rows, 36leg curls for Elf, 36 leg extensions for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!

• After one loo trip (didn't haveta type CZ258 into the bathroom to use the ambulant cubicle since someone had already opened it) Monicah toootled me off to Coles and grabbed a trolley for us. After buying groceries from Coles, we popped into the Pinelands Bakehouse and I got myself a crunchy pork bahn mi from Aunty Lisa.

• Got home and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Monicah who rinsed out my hair for me, 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 yummy mug of English Breakfast tea with milk. Just alas Monicah couldn't fing where sneaky PIG mum had hidden the sweetener. *sigh*

• When dad returned home and said he'd not take us out tonight, Monicah went with me back to the bathroom and helped me take the bra off. Then I returned to the gobbling :P table and finished lunch, also signing Monicah off with my thanks and byes. She's back again same time next weel; that's Christmas Eve!

• After I finished lunch, 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.

• Once I've used up the most important two hours of the day I'll use the loo for one tinkle, sit @ the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.

• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 206TH time!

• Toms:  the roster says Lena's not coming until 4-6pm; that's right; table tennis has finished for the year! Hope PIG mum'll help me up not too late and take me for walkies somewhere, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.

• Ooh, then I may get to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 207TH time!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
