 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2893. Righteo,  final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I was gonna play the HP version of Bejeweled for fifteen minutes but realised I'd not shared all my Facebook memories yet!
• 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: Peggy's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. We're gonna buy a crunchy pork bahn mi from Pinelands Bakehouse since I wanna give all the bakers a Christmas card but then I'm having Christmas lunch with all three Lungs and then we're going for shaved ice afterwards!! :D
• Don't have any plans for the rest of the looking forward to my most important   two hours of the day online, reading for one hour (will ask Peggy to please find a new book for me; Lorraine found Ghost   Boy but that doesn't seem very interesting ... )  and watch the 6pm news for the 240TH time!
• Righteo,  hope  everyone has a smashing   day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee today I've managed SIX posts; that's even rarer  than five! XD

Monday Post 265e

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2737 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Jesus Fully Human'. Anyways, continuing events for today?

• So a nice warm shower for me -  hairwash  today. Also thanks to Lorraine 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 rice cracker, one yummy banana and one small cup of green tea.  Originally PIG mum had put the green tea teabag into the hugest cup, but I told Lorraine to switch to the smallest mug unless she could find the black tea/vanilla chai and some sweetener.
• Happily read the Veronica Roth book for one hour (have nearly finished it!) then had like thirty minutes to play the HP version of Bejeweled! Have passed level fifty but haven't lost a life yet. XD
• Used the loo for two more tinkles @ 5:55pm then signed Lorraine off with my thanks, byes, and Merry Christmases! She's back next Monday same time (and I'm expecting her promptly since her work Christmas party was today) and then it'll haveta be cya next year!
• Watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 239TH time. All the things I recording are in today's third post.
• When dad summoned me over for dinner @ 7:16pm I used the loo for one tinkle 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: the less-yummy rice (apparently red rice's healthier than white rice?)  with lotsa cos lettuce, lotsa soup carrot,  lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato,  lotsa soup onion, lotsa soup potato, one mini corn cobette and one soup pork bone with most of the meat already removed.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I wrote out Christmas cards for the Lungs, the Spenners and the Pinelands Bakehouse people!
• Cards written, I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo  trip  @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
  P.S. Tee hee I've already managed FIVE posts!  Yeah, that's possible most Mondays~ XD

Monday Post 265d

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for Monday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2585. Ha, I'm just   over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final   events for tonight?

• Thanks to PIG mum who opened the door for Lorraine when she announced her arrival five minutes late, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself. I immediately got offline and headed into the bathroom.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 265c

 Good afternoon!  Take two: firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2152 steps (see? Told you I'd crack two grand! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Birth Of The Ancient Of Days'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Are Loved And Highly Valued By God' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Send Me Your People'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! 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*
• Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 7:45am when dearest dad comes to kiss me bye and  retuck me back into bed before going to church, saying he'll come back home for lunch.
• Mini Pearl and I continue our happy cuddling and snoring, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before noisy 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 give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub, since she's ignored my poor foot for the past WEEK! >< Never mind, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep last night but obviously removed the sock first thing this morning~ XD
• After PIG mum helped exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap, she left me to get myself 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 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) with 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 online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.  There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. 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. She tootles us down to Warrigal Square and we buy ingredients she's gonna use to make me mango pudding to take to the EM Christmas party!

• Back home, dearest dad has cooked us oven-baked pizza for lunch! He cuts me three tiny strips (equal to one small slice), lunch gets washed down with one mug of odd-tasting Chinese tea.

• Returned online but not for too long, since Aunty Carol was bringing the grandkids over for their annual visit!

• Turns out Jess was working and couldn't come but Uncle David did; feels like I'd not seen him since primary school!!

• After exchanging gifts, we just sat and chatted. When they left after taking happy snaps together obviously I walked them out!

• Lorraine's minding me from 4-6pm today. Hoping to read for one hour and watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 239TH time when she leaves!

• Toms:  Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm and excitement, I'm meeting the Lungs for our once-termly lunch @ Market Square!  Even more excitingly, we're meeting for shaved ice @ Binggo   afterwards!! Unsure where that is, but I'm sure the Lungs will give directions~ Must remember to write them a Christmas card. Oh, and Naomi's joining us!

• Nothing happening after Peggy leaves; looking forward to my most important two days online, reading for one hour and watching the 6pm news for the 240TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I thought PIG mum would get very noisy in one hour!
• Instead, I fell so deeply asleep I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with   the eye goo! She then helped 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. Whilst doing so, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied.

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt. PIG mum tootles us off to church, parking outside the hall. I hike up the ramp, use the third cubicle of the ladies' loo for one tinkle myself, wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot for service on the most left. PIG mum bolts back upstairs for the   CSS @ 8:50am.
• Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I everything, plus the harmony for two songs but like every other week, meant   absolutely NOTHING.  ><  *sigh*
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Pastor Peter Pie spoke today; his sermon was about the wise and foolish man who built his house on rock/sand.
• Fancy morning tea afterwards to celebrate Christmas!
• Everyone else shared lunch together @ My Personal Chef but dad made me have lunch with him @ Rochedale Hungry Jack's again. *sigh* A cheeseburger, exactly ten chips and one orange juice for me.  Aunty Yvonne didn't come since she was tired from hiking Toohey Forest but Uncle Danny and Aunty Shirley came!
• Got home, used loo for one tinkle and plopped online.
• Toms: PIG mum'll help me  up earlier than usual then we'll buy groceries since once she gets me home for lunch she's got some kinda bone density test happening?
• Lorraine's minding me 4-6 toms. Must remember  to write  her  a Christmas card!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing  week ahead!

• Back home, I take a nice warm shower -  hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers and two more big mugs sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.
• At like 1pm Jane tootled me to church but we had to wait since the parents were coming from Bunnings!
• But once dad arrived he immediately signed Jane off and took me once to the loo before we played table tennis together. Must always remember to serve BIG with dad and always return the ball down the middle. Anyways, he lemme win all three sets today, so I told PIG mum she didn't haveta bok  him  for me. XD
• Back home I used the loo for one tinkle then sat to happily read all arvo,  since it's only Saturdays I can spend a blessed three hours reading~ This arvo, I reached pg. 100 @ 3:24pm, reached pg. 111 @ 3:37pm, finished pg. 125 @ exactly 4pm and finished pg. 150 @ 4:41pm.
• Used the loo for one tinkle, plopped online and happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 237TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccolini,  lotsa  dearest dad's homegrown hairy melon, one corn cobette, one huge chunk of soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup onion and two tiny pieces of soup pork.

Saturday Post 565

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3846 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Christmas Is For Freedom'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Angels Watch Over You' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'With Us In Our Loneliness' but fifthly and way most importantly,  I'm  really still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHTMEEN MINUTES online after I  watch  the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 237TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Argh, for the 15TH time this year, idiot nature ruined my awesome sleep streak! ><  It's the 6th   time nature has called after five days!! *sigh*
• When nature called again following the Sun's rising, after another pot :P tripI spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Nature called again around 8am am and once more when PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs awoke me. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub, since for the ENTIRE WEEK she's ignored my poor foot. *sigh* During an earlier pot :P trip, afterwards 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 PIG mum opens the front door for Jane, she knocks and opens the bedroom door and says, "Fifteen more minutes, okay?" Pearl nods @ her but when she comes back fifteen more minutes later asks her to please say morning next time first.  XD
• I use the pot: p for one more tinkle, we   get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one full cup   of water, I sit over the loo proper and do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane, who tells me that she had her usual breakfast smoothie for breakfast. For my breakfast, I had my usual once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast and one very thin layer of smeared avocado. I also enjoy my first mug of white tea with two sugars, pop all my usual drugs :P and drain another large cup of water. I also happily read for thirty minutes first up, reaching page fifty @ exactly 10:20am.
• While Jane locked up, I used the loo for one more tinkle then climbed into the passenger seat of Sarah (her car rego's SAZ). XD Jane helped me buckle my seatbelt (as she kindly did all day) then tootled me off to Underwood MarketPlace, parking underground and grabbing a trolley for us.
• First we bought groceries from Woolies (some random bloke and I exchanged greetings after he complimented me on my Santa hat and me his Christmas shirt XD) and then I leant against the countertop while Jane ordered me one honey chicken sushi roll for arvo tea.
• 
  
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• For arvo tea PIG mum tossed me one banana and one little chocolate crackle (I thought she said I could have a big one after dinner tonight?) but refused to pour me half a mouthful of milk snapping do it yourself before flouncing upstairs for her long arvo nap. No problem: I poured myself one mug filled to the brim!
• Happily read the Veronica Roth novel for one hour, reaching page twenty-five @ exactly 3:30!
• One tinkle for me before I returned online and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 236TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's first post.
• When   PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:42pm, 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.
• Dinner tonight: rice,  lotsa soup potato,  lotsa broccolini, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato, one/two thin slices of tasteless soup pork and four/five small chunks of salmon.
• Only fifteen minutes left, so just briefly:
• Drank soup, took bowl to sink, returned online and used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
• Toms: Jane's minding   me from  9:30am  till   1:30pm;   presume we'll buy  my arvo tea sushi  roll from Underwood Marketplace plus whatever groceries PIG  mum  wants from   Woolies,  come home for  a shower and lunch (Jane should feed me two  more big mugs of white tea with  sweetener) before she  drops me off @ church  to  play table tennis with dearest dad.
• Planning to spend all arvo reading; it's only Saturday that I can spend a blessed three hours reading and I'm willing to   skip watching the 6pm news for the 237TH time for that!
• Righteo,  hope everyone has a smashing   weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Physio today: 2.768km bike ride, forty bar-assisted push-ups, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift, forty v-cable rows for both hands, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg curls for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing! When I was done, I headed back outside to the waiting room, sat down and SHOUTED "Yay, I'm DONE with physio   for 2025; HOLIDAYS!!!" Shirley and Winnie both burst out laughing and Winnie cut me one slice of the cake PIG mum had made for them as my Christmas present, score!
• After one more loo trip (CZ258 unlocks the female toilets and the second cubicle has an ambulant rail), Jane tootled us off to Coles Rochedale to buy groceries for   the cooking   session I've got with Dorrie this arvo! Yay she lemme sit on the self-serve checkout and lemme rest my legs while she scanned the groceries.
• Back home I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one massive mug of English breakfast tea, the only pity being that Jane couldn't find where the sneaky parents had hidden the sweetener! *sigh*
• At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two more tinkles while Jane washed the lunch dishes up, before I signed her off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm.
• When Dorrie arrived, she walked behind me to the gobbling :P and then I made chocolate crackles with her! Photos are on Facebook~
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 565b

 Heylo  again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4933; ooh, think I'll reach   half a normal person before tonight's out! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Friday?

• After PIG mum lets Jane inside @ 9:30am, Jane knocks, pushes open the doors and says, "Fifteen more minutes, Em." Pearl nods back @ her and she wisely leaves; phew, since he's rather grumpy she didn't bid us good morning first! XD
• When Jane comes back and taps me up, Pearl asks her please say good morning first tomorrow? I use the pot :P for one tinkle, we get me kitted, I head over to bathroom and brush teeth, sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P   table with Jane, who told me that she had her usual breakfast smoothie for her morning meal.
• For my breakfast, I get one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with 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, Jane slathers my face and arms with sunscreen before accompanying me to the   bathroom then returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast things up. Over the loo, 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!

Friday Post 565

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4678 steps (sweet, already over   4.5 grand; that's uncommon!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Christmas Model For Missions'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Your New Resurrection Body (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Resting  In God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-THREE MINUTES online after I watch  the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 236TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until  7:45am, and after one  pot :P trip I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

•  Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking   again for the pot :P around 9am, shortly   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 give poor Elf a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored her last night (and all the other weekdays beforehand). That's alright, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to sleep, although obviously peeled the sock off Elf first thing this morning! XD
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

The parents got up me for choking and mother demanded I only take a half spoonful and always lean forward, etc.  *sigh*
• 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, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• PIG mum passed me one banana (I peeled myself), one huge mug of some odd herbal tea and one tasty    cracker (the 4th).  I happily read for one hour, reaching   pg.  325 @ 4:17pm, reaching pg. 333 @ 4:29pm and FINISHING THE BOOK @ 4:42PM!!

Thursday Post 565

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2212 steps (aww, how come I couldn't have plodded ten more steps?? 2222 would've looked cooler! XD); secondly, john Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Greatest Salvation Imaginable'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Your New Resurrection Body (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Gifted By God'.  Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! 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*

•  Lol, Karina didn't appear AGAIN! Luckily, Damaris from Staffing Options did @ 9:45am and since PIG mum   had told me fifteen more minutes @ 9:30am, I   got up straightaway~

• I used the pot: p for one tinkle, we got me kitted, I went over to the bathroom and brushed teeth, sat over the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then headed out to the gobbling: p table with Damaris.

• Breakfast was one bowl of the less-yummy (so   sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with 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*

• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:

• Did a stinky unspeakable then bought groceries @ Rochedale Coles with Damaris. Turns out today's her BIRTHDAY; she's thirty-three!

• Came home and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Damaris who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted I thought PIG mum had left me one bowl of rice leftovers for lunch but instead Damaris microwaved me a bowl of wombok  and bean vermicelli? The big mug of powdered HK-style milk tea was good, though~

• Said my thanks and byes to Damaris @ 1:30pm; the parents came home, and PIG mum screeched that Damaris gave me the wrong bowl of leftovers for lunch! XD

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

• Hoping to watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 235TH time tonight!

• Yay, tonight's ice cream night; like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!

• Toms: Jane's minding me from 9:30am till like 2pm and taking me for my very last physio session for 2025, hallelujah!!

• Cooking with Dorrie for the final time this year too; hope PIG mum finds a delicious chocolate dessert recipe!

• Hoping to read for another hour afterwards and also watch the 6pm news bulletin   for the 236TH time!

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

Wednesday Post 565g

 Definitely good evening and also definitely one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5614 (ha, I'm more than half a normal person today XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Two Trees the Garden' but   thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really   still owed THIRTY-EIGHT MINUTES online should PIG mum insist I hit the sack @ 9:45pm!! But just briefly, final, final events for tonight?

• After buying groceries from Woolies, we came home and PIG mum cooked fried rice for lunch! That was washed down with one weird mug of herbal tea from Aunty Nga.
• Jane took me to see Wicked! PIG mum gave us a packet of popcorn but 'twas inedible since 'twas all stuck together? Instead, Jane bought us a small popcorn to share, since she'd taken the free ticket   with my companion card!
• Great movie! Should create a special blog post for it~
• Got home and took a nice warm shower -    hairwash today. Also thanks to jane who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, I suppose I had some arvo tea before signing Jane off with my thanks and byes; she's back Friday 9:30pm-1/2, I think.
• Had the usual dinner and then dad took me to church to play table tennis with him! Only Uncle Sam and two other aunties tonight~
• But dad lemme win our match - after THIRTEEN deuces!
• Got home, used the loo for one tinkle and returned online.
• Toms: Karina's minding me from 9:30am till 1:30pm; fingers crossed PIG mum'll  let us have an early lunch out together from Ho Lin Wah!
• Shouldn't have anything happening for the rest of the day; 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 235TH time!
• Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Anyways, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em.   ^^
  P.S. Wow, today I've managed SEVEN posts! XD
  
  

Wednesday Post 565f

 Is the sky dark enough for me to say good evening yet? XD Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4733. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• Once PIG mum was ready to get going, I used the loo for one more tinkle, climbed into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckled my own seatbelt.
• PIG mum tootled us off to Warrigal Square to buy groceries from Woolies, parking outside Ichiba since she could already see all the disabled parks were taken outside.
  Cheers,

 Good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for Wednesday! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4606 (sweet, (I'm already over 4.5 grand; that's uncommon!) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-FOUR MINUTES online after dinner and playing table tennis with dad @ church!! Anyways, potential final, final events for today?

• Since PIG mum's still upstairs getting ready after I'm done over the loo, I wash and dry Era 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.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 565d

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2670 but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES online after Jane leaves @ 6:30pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Mini Pearl and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking again for the pot :P around 8am when dearest dad let himself into my room to kiss me bye and retuck me back saying bed, saying saying he's going caroling @ the P.A. hospital this morning!
• Another hour's cuddling and happy snoring for Mini Pearl and me, nature calling once more shortly   before PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright; Era rubbed her fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to sleep although she peeled the sock off Elf first thing this morning!
• Only the carer doesn't turn up? PIG mum helps me with nothing bar the bra strap, I give myself fifteen more minutes and get myself mostly independently kitted. PIG mum returns to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces and then I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. 
• After grabbing my chocolate advent calendar from the fridge, I sit for breakfast, which is one bowl of   bird food (what Dr. Ku   calls All-Bran XD) very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full cup of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh* Phew, Michelle rings and says Jane can look after me from 1:30pm till 6:30pm today and PIG mum says we can watch a movie to escape the heat!
• 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!
  Cheers,

Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! 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*
• Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P once more around 7:45am and then once more around 9am, 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 give poor Elf a very brief rub, since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night.  That's alright: Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to bed last night although obviously peeled it off first thing this morning! ~
• After PIG mum lets the new career in, she opens the bedroom door and tells me fifteen more minutes. Mini Pearl just flicks his 'shoo' @ her and phew, she leaves.  XD
• Once the new carer returns, I sit up, introduce myself then use the pot :P for one more tinkle. Fay's only twenty-seven, comes from Sudan and has six siblings! She's also a single mum~
• We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, before sitting over the loo proper for one tinkle, washing and drying Era and then heading out to the gobbling table with Fay.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with 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, Fay slathers my face and arms with sunscreen then accompanies me back to the bathroom before going back to the kitchen and washing up the breakfast dishes. Over the loo proper, 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 Fay's car, and she tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza. Thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my groceries both ways.
• Outside Coles she grabs a trolley for us. Luckily, I remember that the milk's @ the back   and Vicki was on the checkout today! 
• Back home, I take a nice warm shower -  hairwash today. Also thanks to Fay who kindly helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly hut.
• Dried, creamed and  rekitted lunch was my delicious crunchy pork  bahn mi plus one huge mug of vanilla chai; just pity Fay couldn't find where the sneaky parents had hidden the sweetener!
• Lol @ first I   thought Faye's shift ended @ 1pm hence why I'd  sat over the loo for two more tinkles @ 1:55pm then booted the computer up, but when Fay said her shift wasn't ending until 2pm I returned to the gobbling :P table to play phone games since I somehow refound the HP version of Bejeweled on my mobile!
• Faye massaged Ela while I happily restarted the HP version of Bejeweled; when she stopped @ 1:55pm think I'd reached level twenty-four?
• After using the loo once more for two tinkles @ 1:55pm I said my   thanks and byes to Faye.  She lives really faraway, somewhere like Redbank/Greenbank Plains!
• Once I've used up my most important two   hours of the day online, I'll use the loo for one tinkle, ask PIG mum for some arvo  tea and read for one hour before watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 234TH time.
• Toms: Jane's minding me from 1:30pm   till 6:30pm. Wonder will PIG mum help    me up and take me walkies somewhere before Jane comes.  Table tennis has finished for 2025; unsure why PIG mum's not immediately    changed the roster back to 4-6pm but hey, maybe we can go    watch a movie today since PIG mum wouldn't take me today!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 565f

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4805.  Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 5:55pm I sat once more over the loo then asked dad to sign Lorraine off with my thanks and byes. She's back next Monday, same time.
• Happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 233RD time.  All the things I like recording are in   today's third post.
• When the parents summoned me over for dinner @ 7:29pm, I used the loo for one tinkle 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: leftovers from last night's dinner, smothered under a blanket of yummy wombok  and dearest dad's home-grown choko.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of   soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely 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 slowly and safely once more 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: Faye from Staffing Options minding me from 9:30am till 2pm toms. Presuming she'll   help me up, take me to Pinelands Coles to buy my once-weekly crunchy pork  bahn mi plus whatever groceries PIG mum wants from Coles, see me home and showered and fed with lunch before leaving. Hope she's nice~
• Righteo, hope   everyone has a smashing   day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S.  Tee hee, tonight I've managed SIX posts;  that's even  rarer than five! XD

Monday Post 565e

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4721.  Sweet I'm over 4.5   grand; that's even rarer than four grand! Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• Before we met Mrs. Dent for lunch @ the Coffee Club, we bought groceries @ Woolies first. PIG mum parked underground to save the car from overheating: 'twas thirty-five degrees today!
• Hence we actually arrived late for lunch; but Mrs. Dent hadn't arrived either? That's odd; I sat   down and PIG mum tried ringing Mrs. Dent; turns out she was stuck in bad traffic coming up the highway from Hopeless Island, but she was coming!
• I entered the Coffee Club proper to bask in the air con while PIG mum went to put the groceries in her boot. While she was gone, Mrs.  Dent arrived! Big hugs for us; I also immediately gave her the Christmas card lest I forget later. XD
• PIG mum returns soon after and takes over the yapping. XD 
• For lunch, rather than my tried and trusted eggs Benedict with bacon I had a fried chicken burger with chips and a large chocolate frappe, yum! Over lunch, Mrs. Dent told us that Mr. Dent's turning EIGHTY next year and they're going to AFRICA for celebrations!
• Back home, I hiked up the driveway, (since dad has parked his car on the driveway and wasn't around to move it), used the loo once then walked myself safely and slowly online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• When Lorraine announced her arrival two minutes late, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Lorraine who helped me rinse out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one yummy banana, TWO flavoured crackers and one huge mug of delicious vanilla chai sweetened with two sugars. Happiness was reading The Maid for one hour (today I reached pg. 250 @ 5:03pm and found the book title on   pg.  251) then having like twenty-five minutes to   play match three games; I passed another Squishmallows level! ^!^ XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee today I've managed FIVE posts! XD Yeah, that's possible some Mondays~

Monday Post 565d

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4233 (ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Welcome Jesus In'. Anyways, continuing today's events?

• After washing and drying Era, I walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• When PIG mum was ready to get going, I used the loo for one more tinkle,  climbed  into  the  backseat of her  car and buckled my seatbelt.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Monday Post 565c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4223. Ha, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen very often! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

• I'd barely fallen back asleep again when dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye and retuck me back into bed before leaving for work @ church! I told him PIG mum and I were having lunch with Mrs. Dent today; dad smiled and say hello to your Australian godmother for me~
• Mini Pearl continue happily snoring together, me waking once more for the pot :P 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 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 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 bird food XD) with all my usual drugs :P and one tall cup   of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve?

Monday Post 565b

 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 today I've been hard @ work plodding only 507 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Making It Real For His People'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Embrace Your Disadvantages' and fourthly, Our Daily   Bred's devotional topic's 'Knowing   And Loving Others' but  fifthly  and way most importantly,  I'm   really still owed  ONE HOUR and TWENTY-TWO  MINUTES online after PIG mum  and I  get  back from  Christmas lunch  with Mrs.   Dent!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, what better way  to begin the   week  then with an   awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call  until  7:45am,  and after one pot :P    trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

Sunday Post 565d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3719. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Happily read The Maid for one hour, finishing pg. 200 @ 4:22pm, (it takes me two minutes to read one page from this book, BTW), finishing pg.  222 @ exactly 4:50 and finished pg. 225 @ 4:54pm.
• lol, PIG mum   was waiting for me; immediately after I finished reading for one hour, she ordered me off to go shower.
• So a nice warm shower for me - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I   , 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 happily leaned fully   against the right-side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water off and calling PIG mum back.
• After she dried my back (perhaps that was her Christmas present to me? Usually she won't do that anymore! XD) 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.
• Less than  thirty minutes left, so   just briefly:
• Dried loo  seat, sat  for one tinkle,  stamped both   feet   dry, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet    dry, washed and dried Era then returned online,   watching  the 6pm news (Nine's)  for the 232ND time. All the things I  like recording  are in today's 2nd post  and  eep,  terror attack @ Bondi Bridge! o_O
• Had our once-weekly family dinner together out @ Ho Lin Wah. Ate less than one bowl of rice, less than   half a bowl of ho fan  and less than half a bowl of Hokkien noodles. Drank one cup of   Chinese tea, half the   set soup and about one mouthful of the HK-style milk tea.
• Got home  and published today's third post.
• At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to   the loo for one tinkle and back,   again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms:  Ray's on holidays but  PIG mum's taking me to  underwood MarketPlace for  walkies since we're meeting Mrs. Dent for lunch @ the Coffee Club;  I've not   seen her since my birthday  back  in  March! Fingers crossed for a plate of eggs benedict with  bacon and a  chocolate thickshake to myself!
• Think  it's Lorraine minding me from 4-6? Looking forward to   reading  the Maid for one hour and fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm  news for the 233RD time!
• Righteo, hope   everyone has a smashing week     ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

 Heylo  again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3246 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Sin's Deceitfulness." Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• After enjoying my most important two hours of the day online, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P   table to read for one hour, asking PIG mum please for some  arvo tea.
• She passed me one yummy  banana, one huge mug of weird Chinese tea (that  she took from   some hotel  she stayed @ when in China)  and one plain cracker.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 565

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2969 steps (so will have definitely cracked 3000 before the day's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's "The Final Reality's Here"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "The Ultimate Test Of Your Discipleship' and fourthly, Oue Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'An Empty Juice Box. Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, nature called around 12:30am and prevented me from getting another  awesome night's sleep;  after another  pot :P  trip  following  the Sun's rising, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• PIG mum lets herself into my room to   hit me with the eye goo shortly   after that; after also helping me very   slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bar strap, she leaves 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   to brush teeth, but thanks to her who brought me back the electric toothbrush still charging that I'd totally forgotten to last night!
• Teeth brushed, 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.

• Breakfast is one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with 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). She tootles us off to church and parks under and outside the service hall.  I hike up the ramp, use the disabled toilet once myself then grab the most left seat inside the service hall; ah, blessed air con!
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Sat for worship but sang everything plus the harmony for two songs, just meant absolutely   NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker was Willis; his sermon topic was Opposition To The One
• Had morning tea then joined @ least twelve others for lunch @ Market Square! Originally Serena chose Kusuka Corner for lunch, some Indonesian restaurant but since the place was packed we ate @ Terrific Noodles instead. I loved their biang  biang noodles; they're really thick! That was with beef brisket, and I ate all the vegetables too~ XD I just drank water and Dr. Dr. Esther drink iced tea; tried asking her can I please have one too, but she said please just drink water; long line outside! XD
• Peter Pie and Yu Lam dropped me home~
• Wonder where dad will take us for dinner tonight? Only the 2nd/3rd time I've been lucky   enough to have both lunch and dinner out this year!
• Has Ray already taken Christmas holidays?  Hope PIG mum helps me up not too late and takes me walkies somewhere before we come home for lunch with dad else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me toms. 
• Actually, we're meeting Mrs.  Dent for Christmas lunch @ the Coffee Club; can't wait to   catchup with her since I've not    seen her since my birthday back   in March this year! Phew that     PIG mum   says we can go grocery   shopping first~
• Lorraine's minding me 4-6pm toms; hopefully I can watch pm news bulletin for the 233RD after I watch it for the 232ND time tonight!
• Anyways, hopefully  bbl,   else wishing   everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,

Righteo,  final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I read and shared the She Reads Truth daily devotional.
• 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.
• Toms:  just church, definitely nothing special. The parents had better FINALLY lemme eat lunch out with other ESS people!
• And if dad takes us out for our once-weekly family dinner out toms night, it'll be the 3rd time this year I've been lucky enough to have both lunch and dinner out!
