Thursday Post 315c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1907. Hopefully toms I'll crack heaps more than two grand! Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I Facebooked until 9pm, when I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• PIG mum'll help me up toms since Hannah's taking me to the NAB for my wander around The Great Court but coz I attended the GCCW monthly gettogether today I didn't buy any buns and PIG mum hasn't done any baking tonight ... 
• I'm looking forward to seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ her. XD
• Will prolly haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea ... *sigh*
• May watch Nine's 6pm news - the 115TH time I'll have watched it!
• Will most prolly watch the Broncos play the Eels; never mind that 62% have voted will win by more than eleven points. XD
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for tonight now stands @ 1780; secondly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Don't Be Deceived" and thirdly, Joni's devotional topic's 'More Than You Can Handle?' Righteo, continuing events for Thursday?

• At Rice Paper, I ordered my favourite fried chicken ho fan (minus the nuts; I regaled Tina with how Pastor Chris had totally freaked me out with his Voice Of Authority back @ the beginning of the year XD), Pastor Grace ordered some spicy laksa thing, Pastor Chris had a pork dish and Tina just got a bowl of rice with a green tea coz she'll explode eating everything else. XD
• Over lunch, Pastor Chris told me how @ small group tonight they're continuing Bible study from James, Pastor Grace told me her podcast will launch like tonight and both managed to ask me questions just after I'd stuffed my mouth full. XD When I gestured apologetically @ Pastor Grace, she gestured @ me, saying "Swallow first,"; when Pastor Chris interuppted me with a question just after I'd taken another full mouthful I glared @ him suspiciously and when the naughty man unrepentantly smirked, I mimed a swat over his head, which just produced another smirk. XD
• After lunch, Tina tootled me home and I took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, since Tina kindly stayed and held the water over my back after I called her back for some facewash, I was actually all done after 12% but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling Tina back.
• After I flipped the nice hot water off, I got dried, had another tinkle when Tina went to get me some pyjamas and got creamed. When Tina rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf's AFO straps and one last when I was drying inside both ears with a tissue.
• Back outside, I sent Tina to please clean the bathroom while I booted the computer up.
• Before she left, I headed over to the gobbling :P table and wished her a happy holiday; she's gone for the next two weeks!
• When PIG mum came back, she fed me one yummy pear and one huge mug of Chinese tea. When I used the loo for one more tinkle before popping online, she went walkies with dearest dad. 
• I finished reading my daily Bible passages and tootled online for myself. When the parents returned from walkies, PIG mum heads upstairs for her belated arvo nap and dad tries to order me over to the television for the 6pm news but I refused coz I hadn't been online for two hours yet. XD
• When dad summons me over for dinner, I use the loo for one tinkle and then walk 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. 
• Sweet, September has been satisfied FIFTEEN times!! :D :D Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa boiled tasteless little tong vegetable, lotsa yummy wombok, some soup things (like red date, 'larm buck hung' - say that in Canto-) and four/five lil chunks of yummy pork.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking my bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 
• Anyways, hopefully bbl following one more 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 their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 315

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1532 steps and secondly, TWFT topic's "You Can't Always Trust Your Feelings". Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, my awesome sleep streak ended this morning about 12:30am, when my idiot bladder nudged me awake and demanded I use the pot. :P I blame the parents for arguing last night. XD
• Nature called again around 6:50am, and after another pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7:00am 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*
• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 5:41pm, I lasted 5:13. Now, lemme play one more game lasting between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• One hour later, dearest dad considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the latch leading into the garage; that was my wakeup signal to use the pot :P once more. Shortly afterwards, he came to kiss me bye before leaving on his hard day's work. Me,  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*
• Now @ 6:04pm I've played one more game of Bejeweled lasting 6:53. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I'll promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Today Tina arrived fifteen minutes late today; she didn't come into my room and say fifteen more minutes but I started counting fifteen more minutes anyway, hopeful I'd get thirty minutes from her. When she entered @ the twelve-minute mark I tried asking for fifteen more minutes then but she decided only five more minutes. Whatever; seventeen minutes beats fifteen minutes. XD
• After counting down my final five minutes, I used the pot :P for one more tinkle and then waited for Tina to come help me up. When she gave her funny knock and entered, I sat up and gave her step-by-step instructions on how to get me kitted. Thanks to PIG mum who'd left my clothes out already. Tina was late today coz she'd been stuck along Logan Rd.
• Once kitted, I headed over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Tina who squirted me some toothpaste; Ela enjoyed her first break this week.
• Teeth brushed, I headed out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, which was one bowl of bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Brain XD) with one sliced banana, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Tina who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure. Also, the bilberry tablet randomly burst open and stained my middle fingernail purple?
• Breakfast finished, I went to the loo and did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and minutes 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!
• All done, I climb into Tina's car and she tootles me off to Stan's place in Stretton! Stan comes out to greet me when we arrive; I tell him I've brought a mask and should I put it on? He goes nah, we'll social distance and how can you wear a  mask while eating morning tea? Tina walks behind me to an armchair and then leaves, saying she'll come pick me up @ 12:30pm.
• Six people were @ Stan's place: Stan, his wife (Jan?), Ken, Pat, some new guy from the USA called Happy and me. 
• Morning tea was sumptuous! I'd brought along one packet of Oreo bikkies while Stan provided sandwiches, tarts and bikkies; best of all, he'd made a solar oven and made everyone damper, to which his wife spread sth like lemon/lime butter over each slice! Thanks to Pat who helped me once to their bathroom @ 11:45am; their toilet was easy to use coz there was a handrail there and a little handwashing basin too!
• When Tina came to pick me up @ 12:30pm, Stan kindly accompanied me back to Tina's car. Ken says we'll continue our fortnightly homework pieces and Stan says he'll try organise monthly catchups on Thursdays so I can join too, yay!
• Tina tootled me over to Rice Paper Vietnamese Cuisine to meet Pastors Chris and Grace for lunch, only suddenly her GPS went haywire! Driving along Logan Road, her GPS kept telling Tina to turn left into Kingston Road? I told Tina how about you lemme give you directions to Rice Paper coz I know the way right now and she said okay. Along Underwood Rd. Pastor Grace messages saying they're arrived; I message back we're coming along Underwood Rd. and will arrive soon~

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 2641. Righteo, just briefly, final, final events for tonight?

• At 9pm, I went to the loo, intending to do a sttinky unspeakable. I even asked PIG mum to please gimme half a mug of water ... but then, I somehow got constipation and nothing came out? PIG mum ordered I eat All-Bran toms but then realised dad somehow mixed his peanut cereal into the All-Bran! XD He offered to drive down to IGA to buy a box for me, coz IGA's open nightly till 10pm, but I said don't worry, I'll eat a banana toms for breakfast and PIG mum said she'd buy a box after working toms.
• Lol, PIG mum's having a meltdown while dad is staying remarkably calm. XD
• Toms: Tina's helping me up @ 8am. Wonder how late she'll come? XD
• Then she's taking me to Stan's place for our GCCW social gathering! I feel loved that they moved it forward one day so I could partcipate; last fortnight they met up Wednesday but I was @ UQ doing physio!
• Even better, I'm catching up with Pastors Chris and Grace for lunch @ Rice Paper Vietnamese Cuisine! Will remember to order the ho fan dish without nuts. XD
• But since I'll not visit a bakery, will prolly haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit ... *sigh* Unless I can ask PIG mum to get Tina to go buy me two buns after she drops me off @ Stan's place?
• Tomorrow night the Bunnies are playing the Bulldogs; might watch that!
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,.
  Em. ^^

• Physio today: 100 single leg pushups for Elf on Tower Of Power, thirty-five sit-to-stands, reaching and cone work for Era both sitting and standing, weightbearing for Elf and sitting with reduced thigh support.
• Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Turned alarm on, saw Ray for some acupuncture and massage.

• Tootled online for myself and then joined choir rehearsal from 5:30pm till 6:30pm! Had fun refusing dad's order to go and watch the 6pm news.
• Had the usual boiled, tasteless dinner spooned down with one bowl of soup. Score, the parents lemme use the spoon I had the foresight to skoot my chair over to get earlier today for dinner tonight; September has been satisfied FOURTEEN times!! :D :D

Wednesday Post 315

 Good afternoon! Firstly, my final, final plodding total from Tuesday's actually 4906 (lol, I was *almost* half a normal person! XD); secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2298 steps and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Try To Have Realistic Expectations' but fourthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIVE minutes online after I attend choir rehearsal!! Anyways, just let's start with last night's events first!

• For my first game of Bejeweled ending @ 4:24pm, I lasted 6:24. Now, lemme play one more game of Bejeweled lasting between five and six minutes, and I'll promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• I watched the 6pm news for the 114TH time this year!! :D All the things I usually record: Mulherin (heard), Palaszczuk, Keans, Dick, Berejiklian, Maccullum, Gyte, Zagel, Cutajar, Uhlmann, Mac Conville, Albanese, Paterson, Arvier, Biden, Cavallaro, Mitchelmore, Pullar, Coulson, Eaton (heard), Frecklington, Mekonnen, Creedon (heard), Rawlinson, Coates, Plant, Farnworth, Gottlieb, Duffy, Baxter, Swinn,  Bridenstine, Greaves and Gamble. 73.13USc = 1AUDGarry Youngberry read the weather report. Brisbane was 15-26 today. Mt. Gravatt toms: 12-24. 5:44 sunrise 5:42 sunset
• Wolfed down dinner, used loo for one tinkle and then dad dropped me off @ church for small group Bible study. Unsure why he got up me for holding onto the pole before stepping up onto the tiled area, but hey.
• Lol, Supreme Leader had his guitar out and was strumming when he said, "Wish Viv was here to play piano for us..." I offered my paltry services with only one hand; Charlie gave me a hand to the piano and Enoch got me a chair with a backrest. Thankfully Supreme Leader chose one song in C; if he'd chosen a song in like F# he'd prolly have done my head in! XD I muddled up the first verse and chorus several times but then luckily got the hang of it.
• Last night we did a Bible study from Acts 16:1-15 and Enoch took me through the drive thru @ Maccas for a bacoon and egg McMuffin before dropping me home. Repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 314c

 Good afternoon and probably one final greeting for today! Em's probable final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4020; ha, I'm just over four grand. XD Righteo, probable final, final events for today?

• Woo hoo, 8th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am, and after one pot :P trip I fell straight back asleep coz I knew dearest dad would leave for work around one hour later, considering how Winter's over and the days are lengthening again!
• One hour later, I awoke to the sound of dearest dad considerately walking silently along the hallway to unpop the lock leading into the garage; after another pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 8am 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*
• After dearest dad retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, I happily snore for about another hour. PIG mum's daily a-THUMPING upstairs awakens me; I was having a dream! In my 55th dream for 2020, I was just about to embark on some journey! Pity PIG mum awoke me; now I'll never know what the journey was! XD
• PIG mum actually comes into hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with nothing but the bar strap while I'm over the commode; after giving myself fifteen more minutes I get myself mostly independently kitted, before calling her back please to help me with Elf's AFO straps and both laces.
• After letting PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela), I sit over the loo for two tinkles, also leaning fully against the side rail and 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*
• Won't get time to play one more game of Bejeweled lasting between five and six minutes coz the news starts in like three minutes! That's alright; will still willingly hit the sack tonight coz I've actually played one memorable game of Bejeweled lasting 7:42!
• Just noting down that Hannah took me out to UQ for physio and this time I plodded a circuit of the entire Great Court!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
