Thursday Post 565f

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3622. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I had fifteen minutes to play Bejeweled-type games. Not that I passed anymore levels! XD
• 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.
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay; like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Jane's minding me from 9:30 till 1:30pm. Unsure why I've not received the reminder text from Breathe to come for physio but mother and I've both left messages explaining I can't walk much.
• EXCITEMENT: toms I'm taking my once-yearly Queen Street Mall trip with Sparkless3, and I'll get to WINDOWSHOP!!! :D
• Will haveta check with PIG mum tonight but I'm hoping to start with a bubble tea on arrival, go shopping along Queen Street Mall and buy one thing, have fried chicken for dinner, see the massive Christmas tree and watch the show then end the night with an ice cream!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, tonight I've managed SIX posts;  that's even  rarer than five! XD

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3541 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The World, The Flesh And The Devil'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When dad summoned me over for dinner @ 7:40pm I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely over to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa boiled lettuce, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup onion, two little pieces of halibut and three surprisingly tasty chunks of pork.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself once more slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Anyways, hopefully bbl  after one last loo  trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total  for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee I've already managed FIVE posts; that doesn't usually happen Thursdays! XD

Thursday Post 565d

 Good afternoon again! Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3285. Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Yay, when Sharon arrived dad was inside the garage, and they just came inside together~
• So a nice warm shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Sharon who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was my first yummy juicy mango cheek for the year, two plain rice crackers and one massive mug of white tea! Just pity there wasn't any sweetener... *sigh*
• Over and after arvo tea, I happily read the werewolf book for one hour; today I reached page 100 @ 4:07pm.
• After reading for one hour, I returned online and asked Sharon to please keep massaging Ela but instead she asked could she head home? The shift doesn't end till 6pm but since she'd already supervised my shower, I was cool with that, just telling her to   check with CODA first.
• Meaning I signed her off one hour early; she's back not this Saturday but next Saturday.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 228TH time!
•  At 5:40pm, I walked myself once slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Jane's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm. Unsure have I got physio since I've not received the reminder text from Breathe? Nah, they've prolly sent the reminder text to PIG mum's mobile.
• Surely tomorrow's cooking and not exercises for Ela? Although fair enough ... wasn't Dorrie ill last week  and didn't come?
• But hopefully I'm taking my once-YEARLY trip to Queen Street Mall and looking @ the massive Christmas tree toms night!!
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 565c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2775. Anyways, potential final, final events for today?

• Immediately, I ring CODA and ask who's coming to look after me today?? Trish says that she'll call back.
• Breakfast is one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with all my usual drugs :P and one full 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 loo, 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. 
• Michelle eventually rings back, saying she's rung agencies and will ring again @ like 2pm and lemme know who's coming for support!
• I use the loo for one tinkle, climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my seatbelt. PIG mum tootles us down the road to buy groceries from Warrigal Square Woolies and walk aisles. Somehow, she can already see coming down the front of Warrigal  Square? Luckily, there's disabled parking available outside Ichiba~
• After buying groceries I just hike aisles until we reach the self-serve checkouts. Pity PIG mum won't lemme sit while she scans out items, but hey.
• Once home I use the loo for one tinkle then sit @ the gobbling :P table while the parents reheat leftovers for lunch.
• Lunch is spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink, I use the loo for one tinkle 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. 
• Phew: when @ the self-serve checkouts, Michelle rang and said Sharon can come 3-6! 
• Will skip watching the 6pm news bulletin since I've gotta resend GCCW scores to Tammy!
  
• Toms: Jane's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm; I've not got the SMS reminder this time but presuming I've got physio @ Breath and then we'll buy groceries from somewhere before I come home for a shower.
• Also unsure:  am I finally hitting Queen Street Mall toms night for my once-yearly trip to see the Christmas tree??
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day  toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Thursday Post 565b

 Heylo  again, good morning again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 434 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Long-Awaited Visitation'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Become A Better Listener' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Believing More Than We See' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm still  owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-EIGHT MINUTES online this afternoon!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:1oam and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am, just before PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo when suddenly Michelle from CODA rings and says Karina can't make it! o_O 
• PIG mum helps me with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap, I give myself fifteen more minutes, get myself mostly independently kitted then call PIG mum to please come back and finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces. That done, 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.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 565d

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4974 (ooh I'm nearly have a normal person! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Mercy'. Righteo,  final, final events for tonight?

• At 1:25pm I sat over the loo once for two more tinkles and was waiting by the door when Jane arrived to take me to table tennis; obviously, I arrived first again. XD
• Some have already left for Christmas holidays and there aren't enough trainers; for the first round I played with Robyn and then Jo joined us!
• Then I played with Ethan and sang 41% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Then we all went outside for juicy watermelon since today was really hot!
• Last I played with Gary but we left early (4pm) since Jane wanted to avoid peak hour traffic. She'll get stuck anyway; I happily played the Squishmallows version of Bejeweled and passed like five levels today!
• Took a nice warm shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Arvo tea was one yummy banana and one giant mug of vanilla chai; yay that Jane found the sugar and added two teaspoonfuls for me!
• At 5:55pm I sat over the loo once for two tinkles then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes; she's back Friday~
• When Eden arrived I climbed into the backseat of his car; Ellen was in the passenger seat already. She's seventeen, just graduated from Citipointe and wants to study medical imaging @ uni!
• Coz we arrived early I just sat inside Eden's car until someone opened the room then I hiked up the ramp and entered A7/8.
• While people were setting up tables, thanks to Mel Mel who walked behind me once to the loo. I managed inside myself just fine.
• Dinner was self-serve potluck! Cynthia walked behind me to get my first plate (her husband's an oncologist!) then Yu Lam walked behind me for seconds! Kwany even saved me a mini-Drumstick for dessert!
• Game time! Obviously, I sat out most since I'm not mobile but pitched in with the ping pong ball throwing and string holding!  BTW Mel's daughter gives a REALLY HARD high five! XD
• Yu Lam walked behind me again for another loo trip then it was home time! I missed out on cake!! ><
• Lol turns out Ellen and Eden are siblings! XD
• One more loo trip for me when I got home~
• Toms: Karina's minding me from 9:30am till 1:30pm; fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme get an early lunch from Ho Lin Wah! 
• Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
