Monday Post 340c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2825 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Gave No Answer'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • After the news ended I called out to dad, requesting he summon me when dinner was ready, repeating the request @ 7:15pm.
  • When  dad summoned me for dinner @ 7:16pm I used he loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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: entrée was a tiny cube of cheese then  dinner was rice,  lotsa cos lettuce, lotsa soup  carrot, four chunks of chicken and one mini chicken wing. Dessert was one more tiny cube of some cheese.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup, after which I read for ten more minutes since I like reading for one hour every day whenever possible. Tonightt I reached pg. 125 @ 7:27pm.
  • After taking the  bowl over to the sink, I used the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

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

Monday Post 340

 Good afternoon! Turns out I was really sttill owed FIFTTY-EIGHTT MINUTTES (nearly one whole HOUR! ><) after I video chatted with Aunty Nga last night but firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2370 steps;  secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's' The Great Missionary Hope'; thirdly, TTWFT topic's  "God's Part And Our Part' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God  Knows Your Name'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:05am 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 Outside  I could hear the rain  BUCKETING down and was like eep, hope it all clears away before I see Ray for treatment!
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before dearest dad lets himself into my room, kisses me awake and gives me some eye     goo.
  • Dad also says fifteen more minutes and get up once Juliet arrives but when she arrives I've still got    twelve minutes  left! Daddy Bear just flicks his paw imperiously to shoo and I growl twelve more minutes. Luckily, they leave us be, else Daddy Bear would've showed them his Bear Bum!   XD
  • Once I've sat over the pot :P for three tinkles I was ready to  get dressed  but turns out Juliet hadn't got me any clothes yet! Meaning by the time I exited the bedroom  'twas already10:05am and doubtless I'll be back in bed for another night before 10:05pm, meaning I've  like wasted the whole day. >< *sigh*
  • After brushing teeth I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Juliet, who tells me that she had three Weet-Bix for breakfast this morning, the lucky thing! I'm only gonna get one!
  • Sure enough, for breakfast I only get one plain (no honey) Weet-Bix lightly sprinkled with some Plus and all my usual drugs :P.  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 ask Juliet to please gimme (face, neck, throat 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 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.

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 Juliet's car and she tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Thanks to her who kindly helped mee buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • A Ray's, I use the loo for one tinkle myself then lie down for some massage and acupuncture and massage. For one last week this year I enjoy having a three-way  chat with Ray sand Juliet; once PIG mum  returns,  she's gonna yap,  Ray will make some affirmative sound and she'll yap again! Me, I'll close both eyes and nap. XD
  • Less then thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Juliet finds rooftop parking and grabs a trolley for us. We both buy groceries @ Coles and she lets me sit on the self-serve machine bench while she scans our iems.
  • Get home and shower - hairwash  today.  Also thanks to Juliet who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed  and rekittted, lunch is one bowl of yummy rice leftovers  (wombok, sweet and sour pork) plus one little mug of green tea. While I  eat, Juliet cleans the bathroom.
  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two more tinkles then sign Juliet off with my thanks and byes. She's back Sunday  7-9am.
  • Once I've used up the most important two hours of the day I'll use the loo for one tinkle, sit @ the gobbling :P table and ask dad for arvo  tea,  read for as close to one hour as I can then return and watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 206TH time.
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me  9:30am till 4pm. Presume we're buying groceries from Coles Pinelands plus my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from Coles, coming home for lunch then going to the NAB for my FINAL physio NAB session for 2026, hallelujah!! :D
  • Will need rice for arvo tea since Lorraine's taking met Toastmasters toms night and I'm getting an UnHappy Meal for dinner!
  • Anyways, hopefully  bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Enjoyed my 4th consecutive awesome sleep, attended ESS then had lunch at Hungry Jack's with baba before Juliet minded me from 1-6. Video chatted with PIG mum for five minutes and saw por por's headstone 🪦. So relieved to hear that she is surrounded by people she knows! Watching the Kangaroos' play tonight then tomorrow Juliet will take me to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage.

Nature didn't call until 6:30am 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.

Friday Post 340

 Good evening! Firstly, today  I've been hard @ work plodding exactly 5300 steps (ooh I'm more than half a normal person today; that's rare! XD);  secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's  'Hedonism For Husbands And Wives'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Thrive In Enemy Territory (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Carried Through'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck  THUNDERED down our road (actually, before thundering comes the groaning; that's enough to wake  me!) and started tipping bins @ 5:25am (my favourite thing about the warmer month's prolly how early the Sun rises!); after tugging off Elf's sock and 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, nature calling again around 9am. Approximately fifteen minutes later, dearest dad lets  himself into my room, kisses me awake and says fifteen more minutes.
  • Only Jane arrives two minutes early! "Two  more minutes!" I screech when I  hear dad walking down the hallway to open the front door for Jane; clever dad lets her inside and goes through all the how are you niceties before letting Jane tap me up after two minutes have passed.   XD
  • I use the pot :P  once more for three tinkles, we get  me kitted 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 only one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix 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*

  • After breakfast, Janes covers both arms, my neck and face 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 Sally the Stonic and Jane  tootles me  off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to her who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • Physio today: 1.609km bike ride, forty bar-assissted push ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with more left weight shift, forty steps for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, tennis ball throwing and catching for Era and boxing 🥊!
  • After one loo  trip, I climb back into the passenger seat of Sally and Jane tootles us back to   Warrigal Square and I buy groceries. Yay that the carers all leemme sit on the self-serve checkout machines while they scan the items~
  • Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Jane to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers (thanks to Jane for making  it  tasty  by adding some oyster sauce for me) plus  one mug of unsweetened white tea. Jane says don't worry; you'll get sweetener toms!
  • Sat over the loo for two more tinkles  before signing Jane off with my thanks and byes; she's back toms 9:30am till 1pm.
  • Dad stuck extra dressings over Elf  and then I climbed into the backseat of the Chery and buckled my own seatbelt: duck hunting expedition, commence!
  • Dad first tootled us off to New Farm Park, unloaded me into Sparkless3 and we started searching for the duck along some boardwalk.
  • Not finding it, dad instructed me to ask some waitress minding some empty restaurant. I got her attention and explained we're duck hunting; where's that giant pink inflatable?? She laughs and replies you're too up/downriver! She names some place that dad recognises;  dad says thanks and we  leave.  A short while latter, dad crows aha, I found it! Only his bum's facing us; dad snorts how rude and originally considers catching the City Cat to get closer to it but in the end decides nah and we just wheel me around to it.
  • After lotsa happy snaps dad tootles us back  for an early dinner @ Market  Square! We've gotta park on the  rooftop and after I sit dad demands I move once but we shared some 'bowl jai farn' (say that in Canto); we also bump into Kitty and Kenneth!
  • Back home I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: Janne's minding me 9:30am till 1pm. After brushing teeth and doing a stinky unspeakable  I'm showering immediately since Kenny's popping over with breakfast around 11am! He's a Hongkie physio who was  my NAB student many years ago!
  • But he's got another client @ 1pm; unsure will Jane take me to play  table tennis with dearest  dad @ church before leaving @ 1pm? If not, expect a super-pissy plodding  total from me. Also unsure should I read for three hours/watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 205TH time?  Prolly the former since I've gotta read  tomorrow's Bible passages ...
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
