Sunday Post 325

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 9008 steps (ha I'm just over nine grand and that's my best  for 2026!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's  '7 Reasons Not To Worry Part 3'; thirdly, TWFTT topic's  'Pray Boldly (3)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Deadly Confusion' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Syrophoenician Woman' but  sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-NINE MINUTES while I video chat with Aunty Nga hence while I'll  continue surfing  the net while  that's happening then deduct the time afterwards! But I enjoyed my 3rd  consecutive awesome sleep last night and today walked 3km of the 5km Bridge To Brisbane event with Louiza and Elaine! Had lunch @ Ho Lin before coming home for a shower then Aunty A came over for dinner tonight. Sore now but have Breathe physio toms.  *sigh* Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2449. Sorry, not  quite 2.5 grand. Toms, I'm pretty sure! XD  Righteo, final, final events for ttonight?

• At 9pm I  walked myself once more to the loo for one tinkle and  back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms: PIG mum says she's helping me up @ 6am, since Louiza's coming @ 7am and taking me to the Bridge To Brisbane!
• The plan's me walking 3km and using Sparkless3 for 2km but should I move too slowly I think I discussed with  Singular Bee Gee that I'll sit  down into Sparkless3, Louiza will push me  really fast to the finish line and then I'll stand up and walk over it myself! Mostly I'm just looking forward to collecting the freebies afterwards: the Sunday Mail, my medal and hopefully there'll bee free milky  protein drinks again!
• Also looking forward to having lunch with Louiza @ Ho Lin Wah again; think it's my last meal to enjoy great big mouthfuls.  XD
• Nothing happening after Louiza leaves @ 4pm but  I'm thinking after reading tomorrow's Bible passages I'm gonna sit and enjoy reading my Sunday Mail! Last year I read it one week later!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing Sunday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Toms marks one week until I turn 39.5; must  start composing  Birthday Celebrations 2026! XD

Saturday Post 325c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2376 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Our Daily Dependence'.  Anyways,  continuing tonight's events?

• When PIG mum summoned me for dinner @ 7:04pm, 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.
• When Jane had left early this arvo I'd asked PIG mum to please help me wear a vest coz it'll get colder once the Sun setts. Instead, PIG mum had just tossed me the vest and said rudely, "Wear it yourself." I did and wasn't cold anymore but after I'd reached the gobbling :P  table mother demanded that I wear it again but couldn't explain to  me how I was wearing it incorrectly? She'd even reached for her smartphone, wanting to take a video and show me, butt I'd refused,  since I knew she'd then share it  on Facebook to laugh @ me! >< Luckily, since I was seated and could  fully concentrate, I just slowly wore the vest @ least several  times until she was satisfied. *sigh*
• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa oyster mushroom, lotsa 'gum jum goo' (say that in Canto), lotsa soup tomato, one boiled egg yolk and one wee slice of yummy pork.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of  soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online,  again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Suddenly, PIG mum summoned me over to help her add ingredients for her green tea cream  roll making!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing   Sunday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• Once I'd used  up the most important two hours of my day, I used the loo for  one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to munch my arvo tea honey chicken sushi roll, drink the teabag Singular Bee Gee gave me that I left in Sally but Jane found it  and brought it back today (BTW, 'twas DISGUSTING! >< XD) and read for another minutes, since it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~ Today I finished pg. 100   @ 3:51pm, finished the sushi  roll  @ 3:59pm, reached pg. 111 @ 4:03pm, finished pg. 111 @  4:05pm (meaning this book takes me two minutes to  finish one page), finished the disgusting drink @ 4:07, reached pg. 125 @ 4:24pm and finished pg. 150 @ 4:55pm!

Saturday Post 325

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1944 steps (so trust I'll have reached two grand before the day's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's '7 Reasons Not  To Worry Part 1'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Pray Boldly (2)'  and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional  topic's 'Persevering Into Joy'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7am and after one pot :P  trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* Not only that, for the first time in three months I woke remembering a DREAM: Bree was driving me to Underwood Lake! I've not seen her for years I don't think; presume she's graduated nursing and stopped doing  support work for a nursey job? She was only twenty-eight when I first met her and spoke cool phrases like "Sure thing, chicken wing"! XD
• Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore; after nature calls again (shortly before 8am) and 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*
• PIG mum a-THUMPING around upstairs around 9am wakes me for one more pot :P trip; 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 for fifteen minutes last night and let Elf  wear her sock to sleep last night but obviously tugged the sock off first thing this morning! XD
• After PIG mum lets Jane inside, Jane knocks, pushes open the door and says "Good morning Em; I'll come back in fifteen more minutes and help you up, okay?" Daddy Bear gives a single paw nod and just like that she's gone; he doesn't even get the chance to imperiously wag his paw 'shoo' @ her!
• 900 seconds later I swing myself over to  the pot :P  for one more  tinkle and announce "Jane I'm hungry." She's inside the bathroom and comes immediately. We get me kitted, I head over to  the bathroom and brush teeth then drink one tall cup of water before sitting 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 head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane, who tells me that  she drank some kinda protein shake for breakfast.  Me, I  get my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with some avocado,  drink my first big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, pop all  my usual drugs  :P   and drink another tall cup of water. Over and after breakfast I happily read for thirty minutes first up. reaching page fifty @ exactly 10:30!
• Once the alarm goes off, Jane covers my face, neck, throat and both hands with sunscreen then washes the breakfast stuff up while I use the loo for one more tinkle.
• Less than thirty minutes left,  so just briefly:
• Bought groceries from Coles from Woolies Underwood MarketPlace plus my once-weekly  honey chicken sushi roll from The Sushi Creators.
• Got homeUsed loo once more for  two tinkles @ 12:55pm then  signed Jane off with my  thanks and byes; she's doing the Bridge To Brisbane toms with  her partner  too -  the 10km one! and showered - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who rinses out my hair for me, thus freeing  Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Lunch is one yummy tuna in tomato and onion with  TWO slices of cheese plus two more big  mugs of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. I happily read for another fifty-five minutes, reaching page seventy-five @ 12:38pm.
• Used the loo for two more tinkles @ 12:55pm then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes;  she's back for table tennis next Wednesday and will do the10km B2B event with her partner toms!
• Me, once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo  for one tinkle then sit  @ the gobbling :P  table and munch my arvo  tea honey chicken sushi roll. Also, Jane found the teabag Singular Bee Gee gave me yesterday inside Sally yesterday and returned it; I'm  drinking it this arvo!
• Toms: instead of attending ESS toms, I'm  doing the Bridge To Brisbane 5km event with Louiza and the NAB gang! The plan's walk  the 1st km, use Sparkless3 for the 2nd km, walk  the 3rd km,  use Sparkless3 for thee 4th km and then  walk the 5th km. I've got till  midday to cross the  finish line; should  I still not have finished come 11:45am/11:55am, I'll just sit into Sparkless3 and Louiza'll push me really  fast the rest of the way but obviously I'll get up and walk across the finish line myself! Mostly I'm looking forward to  the freebies: a copy of the Sunday Mail, my medal and I even vaguely recall that someone handed out free chocolate energy drinks @ the end!
• Louiza's with me till 4pm so we'll have lunch @ Ho Lin Wah again before heading home for a shower.
• Anyways, hopefully  bbl  else hope everyone has a smashing Sunday ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2401. Aww sorry, not quite 2500. Maybe toms. XD Righteo, final, final  events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post I continued reading and sharing my Facebook memories.
• At 9pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back,  always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

•  Toms: PIG mum'll help me up, since I've a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply  DYING to  yap ceaselessly  @ him. XD

• After coming home for lunch, Jacinta's coming @ 2pm and taking me  to Breathe for physio @ 2:30pm before we buy groceries then come home for  a shower.

• Hoping to read Mr. Einstein's Secretary for one hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 171ST time!

• Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 324c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ exactly 2222 (nice number, eh? Actually, 'twas 2221 but that number pissed me off enough that I stood, took one small step then sat back down XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Woman With The Issue Of Blood'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• At 5:55pm I used the loo for one more tinkle then sat and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 170TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
• Once the news finished, I called out asking  PIG  mum was dinner  ready yet; when When  PIG she replied no, I said please call me when it is.
• When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:14pm I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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, lotsa yummy cauliflower, lotsa frozen vegetables (carrot), two  slices of plain chicken and two yummy spoonful of steamed egg (with mince); it taste AMAZEBALLS with sesame oil! Just pity that PIG mum already said that she'd not take me out for lunch toms; *sigh*
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking the bowl to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final, final plodding total for  today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening  toms else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 324b

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential  final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2072.  Ha, I'm just over two grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• Precisely two hours after I started my most important  two hours of the day online I got offline, used the loo for one tinkle then sat to munch arvo tea and read Mr. Einstein's Secretary for as close to one hour as possible before I watched the 6pm news.
• Arvo tea was one huge mug of herbal tea and this 'boot jai  gol' (say that in Canto) that Aunty  Frances made! Sure, I'm not a fan of red bean but I love the gloopy texture~ XD
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1879 steps (so hopefully will've reached 2000 before Sunday ends XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's "The Goal Of Christ's Love"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Dad, Bless Your Children!' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Contending For The Faith'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Actually nature had already called once shortly before midnight but after one pot :P trip I'd slept soundly until 6:20am before waking again to relieve myself.
• After the morning pot :P trip I'd immediately tried falling back asleep before PIG mum started a-THUMPING around upstairs but fifty-odd breaths in, PIG mum went STOMP and I realised sleep  wasn't gonna return this morning. Instead, 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*
• At 7am, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly  slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying my tops out before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops first then giving myself fifteen more minutes.
• 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's one small slice of the delicious cake I helped mother  make last night; my current life motto: CAKE for BREAKFAST CAN'T BE WRONG!! :D XD I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain 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*
• After breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely back to the bathroom, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude! 

• After washing and drying Era, I sit first by the door, then second in the garage and then third on the bench outside the garage while waiting for PIG mu to move the car back up the driveway. But OMG, today she helped me buckle my  seatbelt both ways! *faints* XD

• At church, I hiked up the  ramp, used the disabled loo once myself (the seat was up but so was the lid), wash and dry Era then grab my usual spot for service on the most left.

• Score 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's Pastor Peter Pie with his second sermon from the series he started last week.

• After service ended early, I use the normal female toilets (somehow, the disabled loo went outtta order after I used it this morning!) for one tinkle, washed and dried Era (since PIG mum was waiting outside) then hiked round the back and took a seat for morning tea, one packet of Arnott's bikkies and one plastic cup of milky (seemingly unsweetened even though PIG mum insists she added sugar) tea.

• Since Chelsea was due @ 11am PIG mum hurried me  home after I'd swallowed my final gulp of tea butt Chelsea was stuck on the highway and didn't arrive till 11:08~

• She used her GPS to get us to Pinelands Plaza then I gave her directions to where Ho Lin Wah was. Amazingly, just when we rounded the  corner, a car left the spot right outside the restaurant! Chelsea immediately indicated  for the spot butt then got frustrated with the driver who wasn't good @ revering and repeated the action several times. Finally, she gave up, instead taking another spot across the corner. I didn't complain since 'twas still quite close but  amazingly, after the parked car FINALLY left the spot just outside  the restaurant, the car behind Chelsea gestured for her to take the spot,  sweet!

• Once inside I glanced @ the menu and recognised several words but asked the usual waitress for the menu anyway.  XD The 'A' meal was curry chicken rice (must remember that the the word for 'plus' with 'mouth' to the left is the 'gar' (say that in Canto) for curry) but the 'B' was meat sauce (i.e. mincemeat) with fried egg; that's for me! I enjoyed that with a cold HK-style milk tea while Chelsea got a icy lychee drink but said 'twas too sweet. Since she was listening to her smartphone (Chelsea had brought along headphones) I enjoyed taking big full mouthfuls! I've asked Bing and dad's INCORRECT: it's FINE to eat with large full mouthfuls, just make sure you sit straight and don't choke 

• After Chelsea paid we left, she tootled me home and I took a nice hot (even though PIG mum already  switched off  the heat lamp) shower  - hairwash  today.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted I plopped online then started reading today's Bible passages while Chelsea (her dad named her, thinking Chelsea a pretty name) blew dry my hair then cleaned the bathroom before saying bye and leaving like ten minutes early.

• PIG mum's already nagged me about getting  offline; @ 4:54pm I'll use the loo for one tinkle then sit @ the gobbling :P table, munch arvo tea and read Mr. Einstein's Secretary for one hour while munching the arvo tea PIG mum kindly left me before heading upstairs to pigland.

• Hoping to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 170TH time tonight!

• Toms: PIG mum's helping me  up, since I've a late morning  appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Wonder will she take me somewhere for lunch before Jacinta takes me to Breathe for physio @ 2pm? Presuming we'll buy groceries afterwards~

• But hoping Jacinta will find where PIG mum's stashed the sweetener and make me TWO big mugs of white tea before she leaves @ 6pm and I watch the 6pm news for  the 171ST time?

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's, read by Mia Glover)  for the 170TH time: Pullar, Miller, Hadley, Thistlethwaite, Croucher, Duniam, Passarelli, Gray, Putin (heard),  Zelenskyy (heard), Witkoff (heard), Evans, Robinson, Ferriere, McKinlay, Munster (heard), Jakob (first  name,  heard), Funk  (heard), Cotter (heard), Zahos, Todhunter, Piastri, Lawson (heard),  Sweeny, Anismova, Fritz,  Keys, Fagan, Gordon, Kiss (heard), Hull, Howie, Makenna (first name), Baily, Herrington (heard), Haaland,  Soutthwell (heard), Levi,  Miles, Meyer, Robinson, Jiselle (first name), Mannning, Findlay, Graham and Youngberry.

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final  plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2942. Aww, not quite three grand. Maybe toms. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm I walked myself slowly  and safely once more to  the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's Chelsea's taking me out  for lunch @ Ho Lin Wah while PIG mum's having her weekly gossip and coffee session with  her church aunty friends and she'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 2pm.
•  Hoping to read Mr. Einstein's secretary for another hour and watch the 6pm news for the 198TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Saturday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2299 steps;  secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "The Goal Of Christ's Love"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Pray For 'The  Wisdom From Above'" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "When God Opens Our Eyes". Anyways, events for today?

• What better way to  begin the weekend than with my 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 8:00am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• The next time nature calls again, it's noisy PIG mum beginning her daily noisy  a-THUMPING around upstairs. 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*
• PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief  rub, since she totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep last night  but obviously tugged it off first  thing this morning! XD
• After Rebecca arrives, I get fifteen more minutes and use the pot :P  for one tinkle before we get me kitted,   aftter which I head over  to the bathroom and brush  teeth. After drinking one tall cup of wattter, 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, Rebecca and I head out to the gobbling :P table. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbutttered) toast without cheese but very lightly  spread with avocado, another full cup of water, all my usual drugs  :P and my first big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Over and after breakfast I happily read for thirty minutes first up, while PIG mum yapped @ Rebecca.
• Lol, I haveta interrupt PIG mum's yapping to ask Rebecca to please gimme (my neck, throat, face and both hands) some sunscreen before I use the loo for one more tinkle then climb into the passenger seat of her car. Thanks to Rebecca who helps me with my seatbelt (as she kindly does both ways) and then she tootles us off to Underwood Market Place,  parks out the front and grabs a trolley for us.
• First we buy groceries from Woolies then I get my once-weekly honey chicken sushi roll for arvo  tea before Rebecca tootles me home for a nice hot shower -  hairwash today. Also thanks to Rebecca who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried,  creamed and rekitted, lunch is the last of the bangers and mash I cooked with Ari  two  days ago that  PIG mum turned into fried rice with lotsa veggies and TTWO more big mugs of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.  Originally horrid PIG mum said only one but I had planned for  that contingent: after my shower I asked Rebecca to please make me another white tea with two sugars immediately, then after you finish cleaning the bathroom and can  back out  to the kitchen I'll push  the empty cup towards you and stick one finger into the air; please  make  me one more big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Done  deal~
• At 12:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then said my thanks and  byes to Rebecca, who wants another baby!

• Toms: PIG mum'll help me up coz I'm seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD

• Dinner tonight:  rice tonight, lotsa choko, some pork mince and one lil mouthful of steamed egg  which I obviously saved for last.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• After  peeling   and eating one yummy   banana,  munching one tasty cracker (the 6th?)  and drinking one huge mug of green tea, I used the loo  for  one tinkle, 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.

Sunday Post 324b

 Heylo again, good afternoon and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I  get to post online before online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2478 steps (so surely will have passed 2.5 grand before Sunday's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily  devotional topic from last night's 'Six Things It Means To Be In Christ Jesus'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Trust   Your Covenant With God' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Rich Provision". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* Not only  that, I wake with a remembered dream! For my 7th remembered dream this morning, I've just ordered my meal from Ho Lin Wah but before it arrives, I wake!! >< XD
• Before I've time to fall back asleep, PIG mum starts her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap and laying the tee out before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops then  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.

• Only thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Attended ESS, headed behind for morning tea,  went home then had lunch with Jane @ Ho  Lin   Wah before coming home for a shower.
• Toms:  seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage then attending Breathe for physio toms arvo.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• At 9pm I rang Aunty Lai and chatted with her for 5:33~ She's having yuck cha with dearest dad toms!

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

No, the special thing's PIG mum's taking  me  back home  after ESS and then  Jane's coming  @ 11am  and taking me to lunch   @ Ho Lin Wah  so PIG mum  can attend her gossip and coffee social  with her  aunty friends!

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2858. Righteo,  continuing tonight's events?

• PIG mum tossed me one banana (to peel myself, passed me one tasty cracker (the 5th/6th?) and poured me one huge  mug of herbal  tea before returning upstairs for pigland. I happily  read  A Fortunate Life for another two hours and five minutes, since it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
• After using the loo for one more tinkle, I returned online.

• All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s, read by Paul Taylor) for the 190^TH time: Wilson, De Meillon, Ernst, Thistlewaite, Raja, Shannon, Raval, Shamba (first name), Ha-teya (first name),  Gripske, MacGoverne, Bowen (heard), Albanese (heard), Cook, Miles, Scanlon, Jiselle (first name), Manning, Jaze (first name), Pink, Bennett, Tsimpikas, Jai  (first name), Arrow  (heard), Bijit (first name), Dey, Sinclair, Epstein (heard), Slater, Borthwick (heard),Farnworth, Cobbo, Plath, Erland (first name), Haarland, Trump, Dearden  (heard), Nanai (heard),  Millward, Rozynsiki, Bradley, Edwards,  Parton, Hannay, Rogers, Stolz, Gotterup, Kiss (heard), Panozzo, Hardwick (heard),  Pendlebury, Shannon, Zoungas, Nelson, Evangeline (first name) and Kumar. Dominique Loudon read the sports report, Alice Stolz read the auction report and Luke Bradnam read the weather report from Kangaroo Point.  Brisbane was 16-24. Brisbane toms:  13-25. Mt. Gravatt toms: 11-24. Sunrise: 6:04am Sunset 5:34pm 7:47pm PIG mum tried summoning me for dinner @ 8:58pm but I told her "If you can't wait two minutes for me;  please eat first. I'll join once the news ends."

• After asking for and receiving permission to join dinner @ 7pm after the news ended I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P  table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa turnip, lotsa soup carrot and some yummy eggy meat brisket with tofu on  top!

• 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, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Only PIG mum summoned me back to make tuna buns with  her! Ela helped with the rolling pin~

• Anyways, hopefully brb after  I  ring  Aunty Lai @ 9pm then use the loo for one  more tinkle with my final,  final plodding total for today, the final, final events for  tonight plus what's happening  Sunday, else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2756 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'God Has Something  To  Say About  Tragedies'. Anyways, continuing  today's events?

• Two hours after I began my most important two hours of the day, I got offline, used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to read A Fortunate Life for another two hours and five minutes, calling upstairs to PIG mum when I reached the stairs please gimme arvo  tea!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Saturday Post 324

 Good afternoon!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2308 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Forgiven For Jesus's Sake";  thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Jesus Is In Your  Corner (2)' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Breath Of Life". 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 immediately did those exercises Winnie  taught me  to prevent further back pain before I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Daddy  Bear and I happily  cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am just before PIG mum begins her daily noisy  a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let  herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and gives Elf's ankle a very  brief rub, since she'd totally ignored my poor  foot   last night. That's alright; Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes last night and let  her wear her sock to sleep but obviously tugged it off first thing this morning! XD Before she did that,  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*

• Once PIG mum lets Jane in,  she knocks, says good morning and I'll come back  and help you  up  in fifteen more minutes, okay? Daddy  Bear gives a paw nod and imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo' @ her  and she wisely leaves but when she comes back two minutes early I protest; luckily, she goes and washes my glasses for me first.  XD
• 900 seconds later I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, asking had she taken holidays? Eeep, no, she'd  caught appendicitis! o_O
• We get me kitted, I head over to he bathroom and brush teeth before drinking one tall cup of  water then sitting 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 head out to the gobbling :P  for breakfast with Jane. 
• Aside from munching my weekly  fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very thinly  spread with some avocado, I also enjoy my first big mug of white tea with one spoonful of  honey, pop all my usual drugs :P and drain another tall mug of water. Over and after breakfast I happily  read A Fortunate Life for thirty minutes.
• Reading done, I ask Jane please to gimme (my  face  and both  hands) some sunscreen  before I use the loo  for one more tinkle then climb into the passenger seat of Sally the Stonic.
• Jane tootles us off to Underwood Marketplace, parks underground and grabs a trolley  for  us.
• First, I buy groceries from Woolies; that nice Africa man's manning the checkout today! I thought his name was Hambo  but it's actually like Ilyambo?
• Groceries bought, we head next to Sushi  Creators to   get my honey   chicken sushi   roll. Sweet, Jane just  gets me to lean  against the countter while she orders it. When the girl hands her the receipt, Jane's surprised she knew Jane wanted one but  the girl nods @ me and laughs, explaining "She's a regular." XD
• Back home I take a nice hot shower -  hairwash  today. Also  thanks to Jane 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 the yummy pasta I helped PIG mum cook  yesterday plus TWO more big mugs of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey. We'd worked it out beforehand: since mother may  be around, I'd just pass her my empty cup   and she'd know what to do.  XD
• At 12:55pm I  sat once more over the loo for two  tinkles then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes.  She's back toms and we're having lunch   @ Ho Lin Wah, woot!
• Once I've used up   the most important  two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle then  sitt, munch my  arvo  tea sushi roll  and read A Fortunate Life for anotther two  hours and five/ten minutes, since it's only Wednesdays that I get   to   spend a blessed three hours reading~
• Toms: just  church, nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that Jane's taking me for lunch to Ho Lin  Wah while PIG mum's enjoying her coffee and gossip session with her auntty friends! Phew that  Jane eats Chinese and isn't  vegetarian.
• Jane will see me homw annd showered before leaving  @ 4pm. No plans for the rest  of the day.
• Anyways, hopoefully bbl,  else looking forward to  seeing  everyone @ church toms!Cheers,Em. ^^
