Saturday Post 565b

 Good evening again and one greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3775 but since I'll have not been online for two hours until 9:55pm, when I ring Aunty Lai for our weekly phone chat, I'll keep the speaker on and continue surfing the net; hopefully I can keep her talking for ten minutes! Righteo,  final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I read and shared the She Reads Truth daily devotional.
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, again and 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. The parents had better FINALLY lemme eat lunch out with other ESS people!
  • And if dad takes us out for our once-weekly family dinner out toms night, it'll be the 3rd time this year I've been lucky enough to have both lunch and dinner out!
  • Righteo, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 565c

Good evening! Firstly, I'm taking last Wednesday's total for my plodding total 4974, since Wally's gone berserk; even dividing his total by five apparently, I've plodded more than 7500 steps today! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'There Remains A Rest' but   thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-SIX MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, just briefly, continuing tonight's events?

  • Eight attended tonight; unsure why Neil couldn't make it? But Lorraine came and Zach did too, bearing bubble tea !! :D
  • The roast meal was delicious, even though they wouldn't trade the greens for chips!! Best of all, Damian shouted me a vodka orange!! :D 
  • Serves Sylvia right for being in such a hurry to leave: we got stuck in traffic so got home five minutes late anyway. XD
  • Repeat the usual nightly events, zzz~
  • Today: just briefly: yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:10am~
  • PIG mum helped me up then took me from Underwood MarketPlace and I bought myself Adam Reynold's memoirs from Big Was my Christmas present from Uncle Barry and Aunty Janis!
  • Came home for lunch then Jules drove me to our final table tennis session for the year! Lol she's odd: demands I mute my mobile but cranks up her own music! No biggie~
  • We played that ball game then went upstairs for pizza! 
  • Score!  Howard gave me two slices, Judy gave me two more, I had the one Gary didn't eat (he doesn't eat, apparently?) and then Renee passed me one last piece!
  • Usually I leave @ 4:30pm but Jules demanded that I leave @ 4:15pm, when Kim told everyone to come back downstairs and play some more? After using the loo for one more tinkle, I wheeled myself back up the lift to ground floor and yelled bye to Kim, who was a sweetheart and told everyone to yell bye to me~
  • Didn't get home till 5:50pm; showered my quickest but didn't get to watch the news coz my mobile kept getting confused. Jules decided to leave two minutes early since she's got another shift after me.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa cos lettuce, lotsa soup   potato, lotsa soup onion, lotsa soup carrot, and several small slices of yummy pork.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I returned online.
