Monday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1287 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Honour What We Enjoy'; thirdly, TTWFT topic's 'Healing For Shame And Condemnation' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Time And Struggles'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, I was hoping to score my 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night but nature called around 12:30am and spoiled it! Following the first daylight 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, 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 before returning outside and awaiting Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After PIG mum lets Jane in, she knocks, pushes open the bedroom door and  calls "Good morning Em; fifteen more minutes." I just raise Daddy  Bear @ her and she's already gone, thus denying him the chance to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo!' @ her.  XD
  • After counting down from 900 seconds I swing myself over to  the pot :P once more and announce "Jane, I'm hungry." She comes, er get me kitted and then I head over  to the bathroom and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane.
  • Breakfast's one delicious bowl of flaky Special K 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? 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*
  • Breakfast finished,  Jane applies some sunscreen for me then walks behind  me back to the bathroom before returning to  the kitchen and washing tthe breakfast stuff up. 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 backseat of Sally and Jane tootles me off to Calamvale Central to get my cheap  haircut from Go Cutt. I teach her the best  place for parking then we catch the elevator up. Thanks to Jane who helps me buckle my seatbelt both ways~
  • After a short wait, my number's called (the machine dings) and I head over to the chair.
  • Today my hairdresser's Duk M Duk!! We manage a little stilted Chinese conversation.  XD I like getting haircuts there; it's  the only  time I'm instructed to 'look down' since mother's forever harping "head up" @ me!! XD
  • Haircut done, Jane tootles me home and I take a nice warm shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Less than thirty minutes left, so just brief:
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one huge mug of white tea. Sadly unsweetened but hey,  still beats herbal tea any day! XD
  • Jane gives Ela a very brief and light massage for about ten minutes, then @ 1:55pm I sit over the loo fore two tinkles before signing her off with my thanks and byes. She's back Wednesday 1:30pm for table tennis~
  • Lunch over, I take the cup over to the sink, use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then plop online for myself after reading the day's Bible passages. Started Ecclesiastes today~
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me 9:30am  till  2pm (not 4pm anymore since NAB  physio's done for the year) then toms night Lorraine's taking me to Toastmasters!
  • Anyways, hopefully  bbl, else wishing  everyone a smashing day  toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 324c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3080. See, told you I'd just crack three grand! XD  Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today. Holiday's over; I also used Puffball to wash my back and Era; for the first time since PIG mum went holidaying I softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 11% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud.
  • I had one tinkle before I tapped the nice warm water off and called PIG mum back; after she dried the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
  • After drying the loo seat I  sat for one tinkle,  dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washed and dried Era 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.

  • All the interesting surnames  I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s,  read by Mia Glover) for the 215TH time: Jiselle (first name), Manning, Geran, Bavas, Luca (first   name), Nava, Ioyannidis, Usman (first name), Khawaja, Bancroft (heard), Carey, Stokes, Warner (heard), Croucher, Maguire, Calum (first name), Harvey-Scoles, Tehan, Geran, Palaszczuk, Miles, Crisafulli, Nicholls, Eisenkot, Netttanyahu, White, Trump (heard), Macfarlane, Luxon, Hipkins, Patterson, Albanese (heard), Dalton, Kenzie, Keshan (first name), Bavas, Lipshutz, Stone, Zalk, Spark, Sigrid (first name), Thorton, Troy (first  name), Sussman – actually, no, only 214.75TH time since dad demands we’re going @ 7pm! XD Perhaps I’ll just watch the last quarter toms and return that number to 215TH time! XD

  • Had our usual once-weekly dinner together out @ Ho Lin Wah but sat @ the very back where the  larger booths are coz tonight wasn't just us three but Aunty A and Aunty Sally too!

  • Returned home and walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

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

  • Toms: unsure why I keep thinking  dad's specialist appointment's Monday not Thursday?

  • Unsure who's minding me 9:30am till 2:30pm but PIG mum says I'm due for a haircut! Must  remember to  ask Bing: why does hair grow quicker during  Summer? Summer I'm needing  haircuts once every month but during Winter that lengthens to six weeks?

  • Hopefully we can come back to Warrigal Square Woolies to buy groceries; I'd rather not walk the entire length of the shopping centre from GoCutt to Woolies and back to the car park with a sore ankle; I'm just worried that I'm currently unable to walk without pain even though  every morning  and night I'm stretching Elf's ankle! >< *sigh*

  • Looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day then plan to watch the replay of the Kangaroos'  match tonight before watching the last fifteen minutes of the 6pm news bulletin and take my viewing  to the 215TH time! XD

  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week   ahead!

Sunday Post 324b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2997 (so  will  definitely crack three grand before tonight ends XD)  and  secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Song Before The Answer'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • Once  I used up the most important two hours of the day I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to eat the arvo  tea PIG mum had kindly  left me  before hitting the sack: one banana (to peel myself, one mug of delicious tea and one yummy 'lol' por (say that in Canto) biscuit ('twas really a pastry) that Aunty Sally  had brought over from HK! Happily read for one hour butt super-disgusted that I STILL haven't finished the book; how slowly I read post brain injury; it's honestly shameful'. ><  *sigh* Today I finished pg. 525 @ 4:49pm, finished arvo tea @ 4:57pm and reached pg. 550 @ 5:16pm.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2172 steps (ha, I'm over  two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Is God's Love Conditional?"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Lessons From James (3)'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature had already called once fractionally before midnight; after another pot :P trip @ 5:45am (my favourite thing about the warmer month's prolly how early the Sun rises now! ^^) 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*
  • Daddy Bear, Sally and I all happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P when 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 help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap and spreading out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee and 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.  Grumpy: why the eff is Elf's ankle hurting?? The wound's healed and I already stretch her every night and morning! >< 
  • 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's one yummy bowl  of flaky  Special K cereal 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*
  • Breakfast finished, 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). Aunty Sally climbs into the passenger seat and then PIG mum tootles us off to church, parking @ our usual spot down the end. I hike up the ramp, use the third cubicle of the normal ladies loo myself (since the disabled loo lid's closed and horrid PIG mum won't  help me lift  it), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot @ service on the most left.
  • Yay I get  to stay  seated for worship today. I sing everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Dr.  Lee with a sermon from the Encountering Jesus sermon series.
  • Service ended ten minutes early today; after PIG mum collected me, I used the loo myself again, washed and dried both hands then hiked around to  the back for morning tea (one packet of Arnott's bikkies and one Styrofoam of unsweetened white tea). Aunty Sally  fed me one extra  bikie too! XD
  • Everyone else had Japanese for lunch @ Market Square while I had to have  lunch with dad @ Hungry Jack's again. *sigh* Tuesday five days ago already marked THREE WEEKS since I've enjoyed a proper meal out for myself and I'm beginning to think I may haveta wait until our Toastmasters Christmas breakup meeting @ the pub for another proper meal out. *sigh*
  • Back home I used the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era 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.
  • When PIG mum and Aunty Sally got home, I immediately headed into my room and told Aunty Sally come inside too once you're ready!
  • While PIG mum gleefully forced poor Elf on three sets of stretching exercises Aunty Sally and I took selfies with Cowpig!
  • Hoping to watch the 6pm news tonight for the 215TH time!  Was originally gonna ask PIG mum to  please gimme dinner while I watched the news since the Kangaroos are playing @ 7pm but we're having dinner out with Aunty Sally instead (prolly back @ Ho Lin Wah) since she's leaving toms! Will trust they can get the win and watch the full match replay toms!
  • Toms: Jane's minding me 9:30am till 2pm, since PIG mum's taking dearest dad to some medical appointment. PIG mum says Ray's too busy to see me; wonder if she'll let us grab breakfast from Macca's then watch a movie together?
  • But looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online, reading for one hour then  watching the 6pm news for the 216TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • Since Elf's ankle's still  sore, PIG mum lets me use Sparkless3 (my manual wheelchair) and Jane takes me to KMart after we buy  groceries and I get to WINDOW SHOP!! :D  I  see an  adorable milk carton plushie and see that Philippa Gregory  has a new novel out; Santa I want that for Christmas!!

 Heylo and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1436 (so  will have hopefully passed 1.5  grand before the night's out XD) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY-SIX MINUTES online when I ring @ 9pm!! Meaning I'll mute the RLWC and keep the speaker on while chatting with her so I can be reading and sharing my Facebook memories then subtract the time after the call's ended. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • The next time nature calls (just before 9am), after another pot :P trip 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*
  • Shortly after 9am, either parent comes and hits me with the eye goo.
  • After Jane arrives, she knocks, pushes open the door and announces "Good morning  Em; fifteen more minutes" Daddy Bear flops his paw @ her  and just like that she's gone, denying him the chance to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo' @ her. XD
  • Once I've counted down from 900, I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce to Jane that I'm hungry. She comes, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Afttr drinking one tall mug of water, 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 walk out to the gobbling :P table with Jane, Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado, another full cup of water,  all my usual  drugs :P and my first big mug of white tea with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.  Over and after breakfast I happily  read for thirty minutes first  up, finishing pg. 425 @ 10:18am and also finding the book title on that page.
  • Jane gives me (front and back of neck,  face and  both hands) some sunscreen then washes up the breakfast stuff while I use the loo for one more tinkle.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*

Friday Post 342b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 1761 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Complaining to God' but thirdly and way most importantly I'm really still owed EIGHTTEEN MINUTES online after dinner  tonight!! Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • After breakfast, I summon Jane back to please gimme (my face, throat, neck and both hands) some sunscreen then she walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast  stuff 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 342

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been  hard @ work plodding 1760 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily  devotional topic from last night's 'Do You Neglect Your Salvation?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Lessons From James (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Partners In Christ' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm  news bulletin (Nine's) for the 213TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Grr, when nature called shortly before midnight I'd hoped I'd score an awesome night's sleep but then she randomly called again later with another full bladder! >< Don't worry, 'twas a sound sleep aside from that~ *sigh* 
  • Following the first daylight 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and whack a dressing over poor Elf's sore ankle before returning outside and awaiting Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After Jane gives me fifteen more minutes, I use the pot :P  for one more tinkle, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, 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 two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dey (unbutttered) toast lightly  spread with  avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, 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? 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*
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S.  All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's, read by Melissa Downes) for the 213TH time: Ossoff, Heagney, Swanborough, Ryan, Winfrey (heard), Rice (heard), Barry-Hang, Wirth, Mortimer, Wood, Millward, Purdie, Dick, Kelly, Pointing, Ponga (heard), Carroll, Sinclair, Brand, Furphy, Roberts, Haines, Cook, Nugent (heard), Annalise (first  name), Bolt, Lamarre-Condon, Davies (heard), Baird, Probyn, Chalmers (heard), Pullar, Millward,  Crisafulli, Leigh,Hijikata, Rinky (first name, heard),  Feeney, McDonald, Kennedy, Waller (heard), Keidean (first  name),  Coleman,  Kezie (first name), Apps,  TTsimpikas (heard), Hatton, McKellar, Molo, Tino (first name; can't spell his surname!

  • At 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one last tinkle and back, always  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Yay for ice cream night tonight; like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
  • Toms: think Jane's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. She'll help me up, take me to Breathe for physio  then see me home and showered. Hopefully PIG mum won't have any groceries she wants buying unless she lets me use Sparkless3 again; Elf's ankle still hurts. >< *sigh*
  • Ari's coming for cooking after Jane leaves; will eat what we cook together for arvo tea, read for one hour then plop online and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the  213TH time!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!

Thursday Post 342b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1516 (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Sett The Course For Your Day'. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Rico immediately fixes my  glasses for me (the  frame was loose) with some screwdriver sett and tells me that his daughter's looking forward to the Christmas holidays; I apologise for using Sparkless3 and explain I've hurt my foot but don't worry, I'll be up and around soon.
  • Our other stop's to buy groceries @ Woolies.
  • That done, I buy myself a soft serve from Macca's @ the upstairs food court! Originally, Louiza said your mum told me to bring her back ALL the change but I countered with did she say I WASN'T ALLOWED to spend any of itt? No? Then gimme fifty cents! Louiza ends up getting herself a large chips and even pokes two into  my soft serve for me! :D
  • Get home for a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one bowl of rice leftovers (thanks to Louiza who  ads some oyster sauce for me) plus one packet of powdered HK-style milk tea, what I haveta make do with when I can't source a fresh cup. *sigh*
  • Louiza decided to leave ten minutes early; I was just signing her off when the parents returned home. She's back 8am next Thursday and taking me to  GCCW!
  • Whoops, less than fifteen minutes left,  so just super-briefly:
  • Enjoyed my most important two hours of the day online.
  • Had arvo tea, read for one hour then returned online and watched the 6pm news bulletin for the 212TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  • Used the loo for one tinkle, had dinner, drank soup, took bowl to sink and returned online.
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 342

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1405 steps (so will have hopefully  reached 1.5 grand before Thursday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Real Problem With Anxiety'; thirdly,  TWFT tropic's 'Fulfill Your  Obligation To The Lord' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Give While We Live' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-THREE MINUTES online after watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 212TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Have forgotten what time nature called last night but during the first morning pot :P trip I realised I'd developed wry neck when turning to the left to sleep! ><
  • Following the first morning 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the :P pot around 9am. Shortly afterwards,  dearest  dad lets himself into my room, kisses me awake and gives me some eye goo, saying get up once Louiza arrives. I presume it's 9:15am and start counting down from 900. PIG mum lets herself into my room and says she's late; I tell her I'm already counting down from 900 and ring Michelle should she have not arrived by 9:40am.
  • But like usual, she was just stuck in traffic; after she arrives, 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 sitting over the loo for one tinkle I wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, rousing @ her for not eating  any breakfast this morning.
  • For me, breakfast's only one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, 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*
  • Breakfast finished, I  call Louiza back to please gimme (face,  neck and both hands) some sunscreen then  she walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast dishes up. 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.

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 washing and drying Era, I  climb into the passenger seat of Louiza's car and she tootles me off to Garbo. Thanks to her for helping me buckle my seatbelt both ways.
  • OMG today I get to use Sparkless3 since poor Elf's ankle's still injured: WINDOW SHOPPING!!! :D
  • Louiza parks somewhere, we catch a lift then head to Bupa Optical.
  • Daniel's not  outside but Rico the manager/team leader is! 
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1579  (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Never Disconnect From Him'. Anyways, continuing today's events?

  • Lunch was one yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with only one cheese and one delicious mug of Chinese tea. Since PIG mum was feeling antisocial and sat by herself on the couch watching YouTube, I let Ela remain in my lap, propped both legs up onto the footstool and happily played the Christmas version of Bejeweled, obviously remembering to mute the sound lest PIG mum noticed! XD
  • After taking the cup 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.
  • At 1:25pm I sit over the loo for two  more tinkles then sit by the door awaiting Jane's pickup @ 1:30pm

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1428; oh, fingers crossed  I'll hit1.5 grand before tonight ends! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Wednesday?

  • After letting PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth, 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 like one Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, 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.

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*
  • Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely  back to the toilet, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude! 
  • After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. After reading today's Bible passages, I plop online for myself.
  • PIG mum refused to take me grocery shopping and aisle walking today, saying she hadn't slept/slept well last night. I sighed inwardly and resigned myself to a  pissy plodding total.
  • When PIG mum summoned me over for lunch, I noted the time down 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.
  • Lunch was one yummy ttuna in ttomato and onion  toastie with only one cheese and one  delicious mug of Chinese tea. Since PIG mum was feeling antttisocial and sat by herself onn tthe couch watching YouTube, I let Ela remain in my lap, propped both legs  up onttto   ttthe footstool and happily played the Christmas version of  Bejeweled, obviously remember to  - bbl!

 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 619 steps (and don't expect too much more since PIG mum says she couldn't sleep last night and refuses to take me shopping today but I've already told dad I'll not play table tennis @ church with him tonight since Elf's ankle's still injured); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Meaning Of Suffering'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "The Whole World Must Hear God's World' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Hope In Loss' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really sttill owed ONE HOUR and FOUR MINUTTES online after I get home from table tennis and watch the 6pm news  bulletin (Nine's) for the 211TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  •  Yay, 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*
  • Soon afterwards, dearest dad comes and kisses me bye, saying he's going and doing some work @ church  this morning~
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking for the poi :P once more around 9am and thinking PIG mum will help me up soon.
  • Instead, I fall back asleep that deeply I don't wake until she hits me with the eye goo @ 10:05am, saying she couldn't sleep last night! I skip  the fifteen more minutes and immediately  gettt myself mostttly independenttly kitted but by the ttime PIG mum's finished witth my footwear  and I exitttt ttthe bedroom tto brush  teettj, itt's already  10:10am. >< Will stay online untttil PIG mum  orders me offline then stay over ttthe loo  unttil  she orders me intto bed butt will most prolly be back in bed before twelve hours have passed; whole day wasted. >< *sigh*

  • After publishing the previous post, I did my once-monthly readings of  the fanfiction I published two DECADES ago!
  • 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: hopefully PIG mum helps me up not too late, since Jane's not taking me to table  tennis until 1:30pm. Peggy did say PIG mum should  lemme  use Sparkless3 toms for shopping but  doubt that'll happen. *sigh* 
  • If it does, though, expect a super-pissy plodding total  from me, since I'm using Sparkless3 for when Jane takes me to table tennis and I can't source a lift  to GG toms night. *sigh*
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin for the 210TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  • When dad summoned me over for dinner @ 7:18pm, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup  carrot, lotsa soup potato and like one small piece of chicken with some yummy skin still attached.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking the bowl over to  the sink 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.

  • I peel myself one soft banana, munch two plain crackers and drink one huge mug of plain green tea while playing the Christmas version of Bejewelled on my mobile since 'twas nearly 5:30pm meaning I'd not have the time to read for one hour today. Dad was on the sofa watching YouTube.

Tuesday Post 341

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've  been hard @ work plodding 2958 steps (so promise I'll have reached 3000 before Tuesday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Rejoicing In Pain'; thirdly, TWFTT topic's 'Has God Given You A Good Idea?' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's  devotional topic's 'Praying For Answers'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, nature called around 12:30am last night. Following the first daylight pot LP 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P again around 9:00am. About fifteen minutes later,  dearest dad lets himself into my room, kisses me awake and gives me some eye goo before heading back outside awaiting Peggy's arrival. 
  • I count down from 900 before Peggy arrives and expect to be ordered to get up once she knocks but instead get another fifteen more minutes, score!
  • The second 900 counted down from, I swing myself over to the pot :P  for one more tinkle and announce to Peggy "I'm hungry!" She comes, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth (thanks to Peggy who squirts me some toothpaste). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, who tells me  that she had two fried eggs for breakfast today.
  • Me, for breakfast I get one/two  dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P), one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado  and 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 lathers me with sunscreen then walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast stuff 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! 
  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy  tootles me off to Pinelands Plaza, parking outside Coles and grabbing a trolley for us.
  • We both  buy groceries from Coles and then I sit on the self-serve checkout machine and chat with Vicki while Peggy scans our items.
  • Our other stop's the Sunnybank  Hills Shoppingtown  library. There was a side park available just beside the  entrance; unfortunately, Peggy refuses to park along the side since she's afraid other cars will hit and damage Auto hence why she  parked @ the other end and grabbed a trolley for us.
  • After using the loo for one tinkle, we were heading into the library when I saw Nobody's Girl, the memoir by Virginia Giuffre (sp?)! I grabbed that, found a squashy armchair to plop into then sat  and read that happily for nearly one hour while Peggy went and did her own grocery shopping.
  • Before coming home, Peggy even  drove me around to visit 4 Sunrise Cl! Actually, that's my first twenty years post, not the brain injury!
  • Back home I took my quickest possible 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 my crunchy pork bahn mi plus one mug of unsweetened white tea; I enjoyed my one meal this week  to eat lazily. XD
  • At 1:55pm I sat over the loo once more for two tinkles then signed Peggy off with my  thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back same time next week.
  • PIG mum has already bugged me about getting offline; will do so once I've used up the most important two hours of my day first.
  • Rotten PIG mum has cancelled the shift Lorraine has with me; originally we were going to watch a movie together! >< *sigh*
  •  Toms: hopefully PIG mum helps me up not too late and takes me for walkies somewhere since Jane's not taking me to table tennis until 1:30pm and I can't source a ride to GG toms night so perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me?
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing  everyone a smashing Wednesday ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^

Monday Post 341d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3390. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post I was gonna continue sharing my Facebook memories when PIG  mum suddenly said Em, I've forwarded CODA's Christmas Party invite to you; if you wanna attend you'd better RSVP!
  • 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; since  NAB physio ended last week PIG mum's IMMEDIATTTELY cancelled the support till 4pm; she even rang and cancelled Lorraine's 5:30pm till 9:30pm one even after Lorraine said we could watch a movie together! >< So a lonely arvo and night for me... *sigh* Really don't understand what kinda kick  PIG mum gets from keeping me socially isolated. ><
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day  tttoms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 341c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3283 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "God's Complete Focus." Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When I was summoned for dinner @ 7:09pm 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 tomato, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot and like three yummy lil cubes of chicken. Maybe a chunk of beef and fish too?
  • 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.

  • Firstly, I finished the email  to Michelle reminding her to please lemme use up all my funding before the year ends! Sttill super-pissed that mother cancelled the shift. >< *sigh* 
  • 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!
    Cheerw,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 341b

 Heylo again, good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential  final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3084. Ha,  I'm just over three grand.  XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Before dearest dad left for work @ the neighbour's property,  he told me he'd  already left me some arvo tea. I replied thanks, I'll head over once I've used up the two hours.
  • The most important two hours of my day up, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era  then sat @ the gobbling :P table to munch  the arvo tea (one too-ripe banana, two plain rice crackers and one unsweetened mug of white tea) and read for one hour. When PIG mum finally appeared after 4:30pm, both Ela and Era hugged her welcome home!
  • Using the loo for one more tinkle before returning online, I remember to ask PIG mum can Lorraine and I please go see a movie together? Instead, she immediately goes and CANCELS the shift!! When I grouse @ her we could've used that shift even though I'd not asked for it she retorts you'd better thank me for saving you from running outta funding before the year ends else you wouldn't get ANY support! Me: well, should you not use  up all your funding before the year ends you'll lose it since the government thinks you don't need it, next month you'd better lemme use ALL my hours!!  ><" 
  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 210TH time!
  • Toms:  Peggy's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. Yup, trust PIG mum to IMMEDIATELY shorten the shift since I've ended NAB physio for the year. *sigh* Presume we're just buying groceries from Coles Pinelands plus my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi before coming home for a shower and lunch. Hopefully  PIG mum'll have rested enough to attend her pilates class, meaning I can enjoy my once-weekly lazy lunch. XD
  • But a lonely arvo and night for me after Peggy leaves, what with rotten PIG mum cancelling the 5:30pm till 9:30pm shift. >< *sigh* 
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 341

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2873 steps;  secondly, John Piper's daily devotional  topic from last night's "Christ's Sufferings In Us'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Stand Up To Your Giant'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's  'God Our King' and fifthly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday's actually 2854. Anyways, let's start off with last night's events first!

  • After video chatting with Aunty Nga I was  just enjoying some time online when just after 11pm dad was like, let's pickup mum! I'm like umm, her  flight doesn't arrive  until like midnight? But  dad replied nope, it arrived early. Use the loo and let's go!
  • Wow PIG mum's really brave! She left the main terminal and was awaiting  pickup @ some transit centre! Dad left the car to find her; I unbuckled the seatbelt, opened the and swung both legs out. Once I saw them coming I immediately stood up; once they were within earshot I  cried "Mummy pig!!" and she rushed over for a hug before climbing into the backseat behind me! Era held hands with her all the way home~
  • Back home I used the loo for one more tinkle then got myself to bed. Pity PIG mum came and took the socks away; don't worry, Elf enjoyed wearing hers every night over October!
  • Today: yay,  what better  way than to  begin the working week with my second consecutive awesome sleep? Since I didn't hit the sack until like 1am, nature didn'tt 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* That's right:   PIG mum's back, so holiday's over! XD
  • Whoops less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Rebecca minded me from 9:30am till 1pm. She's Hongkie like me!
  • Bought groceries with her @ Sunnybank  Hills Shopping town Coles; unsure why she wouldn't push the trolley with me but walked holding the front, but hey.
  • Came home, showered and had a bowl of rice leftovers plus one mug of green tea for lunch.
  • Took cup to sink, used loo for one tinkle then plopped online.
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me  9:30am till 2pm. Not 4pm anymore, since NAB physio's finished for the year! Presume we're buying groceries from Coles Pinelands and my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse. Looking forward to my once-weekly lazy eating then enjoying my most important two hours of the day online! But it's the Melbourne  Cup toms; gottta choose a horse to cheer for!
  • Unsure why Lorraine's rostered from 5:30pm till 9:30pm since there's no Toastmasters happening? Hopefully we can  watch a movie and eat dinner out together afterwards!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl,  else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2391 but  secondly  and way more importantly, I'm really sttill owed TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online when video chatting with   Aunty Nga, hence why I'll keep surfing the net while we're chatting then subtract the time off after! Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • After breakfast,  Juliet walks behind me back to the bathroom then returns to the kitchen and washes the breakfast stuff 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! 

  • After washing and drying Era, Juliet toottles me off to church, early enough that the carpark ushers haven't started work yet, just how dad likes it.  XD I use the loo once on arrival then take my usual spot for service before signing her off with my thanks and byes.

  •  Sweet I get to stay seated for worship today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

  • Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie with another sermon from his Encountering Jesus sermon series and service ended eighteen minutes early today.

  • Afterwards I used the disabled loo once  myself, hiked around  to the back and munched morning  tea, one pack of Arnott's bikkies. Uncle Simon wandered over for a chat~

  • Everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ Mum's Wok but dad made me eat @ Hungry Jack's with him again. *sigh* Today I got a Whopper Jnr. and less than ten chips but  shared an iced coffee with dad, so no depresso for me today! XD

  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle then plopped online and read today's Bible verses.

  • Whoops outta time so just super-briefly:

  • Juliet minded me from  1-6pm. Dad lemme use Sparkless3 since I  somehow hurt  Elf and every step goes 'ow'. >< But Juliet wheeled me down EVERY AISLE and I hot to  WINDOWSHOP!! :D 

  • Enjoyed a final bubble tea and Juliet bought us waffles to share!

Sunday Post 341

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2144  steps (ha, I'm over two grand  XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Seminary Of Suffering'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Priority Giving'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Radiating God's Goodness" and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's  "Paul's Nephew" but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:009am and after one pot :P  trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*  Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD Although dad and I are collecting her from the airport tonight; right, holiday's over. >< XD
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking for another pot :P trip after dearest  dad silently enters my room, kisses me awake and gives me some eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Juliet's arrival @ 7am.

  • After Juliet arrives I get fifteen more minutes, use the pot :P  for one more tinkle and we get me kitted. I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P  table, who says she had Weet-Bix for breakfast.

  • I had Weet-Bix for breakfast too! Just one/two, lightly sprinkled with some Minus. :P I also popped all my usual  drugs :P and drained one tall cup of watter. 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*

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.

Righteo, potential final, final for Friday?

  • I've just counted down from 900 when Jane announces her arrival and expect her to enter my  bedroom and tap me up immediately but instead she knocks, opens the door and calls "Good morning Em; fifteen more minutes!" Daddy Bear flops his paw @ her and she's gone immediately; I happily count down from 900 again!
  • When she comes back and taps me up, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane.
  • Breakfast is two (dad cheated; he only gave me one but I thought - bbl!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 341

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3193 steps (ha, (I'm over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Sin, Sickness, Satan/Sabotage'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Can Break That Bad Habit' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Get Going With God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck  THUNDERED down our road and started tipping bins; after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*  .Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
  • Daddy Bear and  I  happily cuddle  and snore, me waking again for the pot :P   around 9am. About fifteen minutes later, dearest dad lets himself into my room, kisses me awake, gives me some eye goo and whacks some dressing over Elf, before heading back outside and awaiting Jane's arrival. I count down  from 900, expecting that dad will order me up once Jane arrives.
  • Fingers crossed I can bbl,  since I'm  sttill owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-SEVEN MINNUTES online!!

    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
