One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3529. Ha, I'm just over  3.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After one loo trip, Winnie hands me back to Jacinta and next we head to Sunny Park and buy   groceries from Woolies after Jacinta grabs a trolley for us.
  • Happiness is having fifty cents arvo for a soft serve; Jacinta gets herself one too plus small chips and sticks chips into my ice cream for me! :D
  • Back home I  take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helps me rinse  out my hair, thus freeing Era to  hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea might've been one yummy banana/one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit/some other fruit, one tasty rice cracker and TWO big mugs of white tea since clever Jacinta found PIG mum's new hiding spot for the honey! May haveta text her toms again for it; maybe behind the second bottom shelf @ the back of  the tall cupboard behind sth? XD
  • Happily read for fifty minutes while Jacinta cleaned the bathroom then sat and very gently massaged Ela for about forty minutes.
  • Sat over the loo for two more tinkles before signing Jacinta  off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next Monday.
  • Only fifteen minutes left, so just briefly:

Monday Post 324c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3442  (so hopefully I'll have reached 3.5  grand before the night's out XD) but secondly  and way more importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-SIX MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing today's events?

  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, nature calling once more around 9am, justt 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 help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the batt strap and laying out the ttops before leaving me  to get myself mostly independently kittted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops first then giving myself fifteen more minutes.
  • That done, I immediately call PIG mum and ask her to please finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces since it's nearly 9:45am! Still, she takes her time about things, meaning I don't let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth until nearly 9:50am. *sigh*
  • That done I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself  slowly and safely out to  the gobbling :P table for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • PIG mum's left me one more of the ttuna buns I helped her recently make for breakfast! I also pop all  my usual drugs :P  and drink 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 tto the toilett,  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. Amazingly, today she helps me buckle my seatbelt before tootling me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage!

  • At  Ray's, I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element, yapping ceaselessly @ Ray; my sincerest thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. PIG mum excitedly yapped one syllable five  times before continuing today. XD

  • After one more tinkle, PIG mum tootles us home and I read my daily Bible passages and tootle online two minutes for myself before PIG mum summons me for lunch.

  • She's topped up oven-baked pizza with pineapple, salmon and cheese! I munch two slices and drain a beautiful big mug of Chinese tea~

  • After taking the bowl over to the sink, I walk 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.

  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two tinkles then sit by the door awaiting for Jacinta's arrival @ 2pm and climb into her car after she arrives.

  • Jacinta tootles  me off to Breathe for physio with Winnie.

  • Physio today: 1.554km bike rideassissted 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 extensions for Elf, tennis ball throwing and catching for Era and boxing 🥊!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Monday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1256 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily   devotional topic from last night's "Church Growth  God's Way";   thirdly,  TWFT topic's 'Keep  On Keeping On' and fourthly,  Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Christ In Me' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still  owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I get home and watch the 6pm  news bulletin (Nine's) for the 192ND time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's the12TH time this year I've managed one consecutive weeks of awesome sleeps! :D Nature didn't   call until 7:00am 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*
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 324e

 One final good evening  and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2939. Aww,  sorry. Not quite 3000. Maybe toms. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous composing the previous post, I continued writing my GCCW homework. The previous meeting was only like three days ago (Thursday);  can't believe Mary's already handed her homework in! 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.
  • 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
  • Will doubtless come home for lunch but unsure who's taking me to Breathe for physio @ 2:30pm.
  • Hoping to read for another hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 192ND time!

  • When PIG mum summoned me for dinner @ 7:20pm, I used the 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:  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.
