Monday Post 615

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3089 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Open The Windows Of Your Heart'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Keep Persevering And Refuse To Quit' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'True Basification In God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ONE MINUTE online after Liam comes and gives Ela a session of OT!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, what better way to begin the week than with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 6:20am 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore. Have forgotten whether/not I woke again for the pot :P @ 7:45am but I definitely before 9am, just 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 bra strap (well, she also lays out the tee for me, but that's it) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with  after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. That done, I call PIG mum to please finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces; it's already 9:40am and I don't wanna be back inside my room for more sleep before twelve hours have passed!
  • PIG mum eventually comes back and not only finishes with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Oh, she clips my toenails this morning, despite my protest that it's already late! In the end? I don't exit the room till 9:50. *sigh* That's alright; will just sit over the loo for longer tonight before entering my room.  XD
  • Teeth brushed, I 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. ^^

Sunday Post 615d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3889. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After drying the toilet seat I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry, dried inside both ears, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

  •  Did my weekly file backup then happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 45TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of today's second post.

  • Sat over the loo for two more tinkles once the news ended before climbing back into Cherry. Thanks to PIG mum who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt both ways since I've got seriously sh*tty  side vision, amongst other things. ><  *sigh*

  • Another dinner @ Ho Lin Wah, another frugal feed. *sigh* I had less than one bowl of the A set meal (stir fried Hokkien noodles with chicken), less than half a bowl of the omelette with rice and again less than half a bowl of the soupy thin ho fan with   cuttlefish balls. Drank one cup of Chinese tea, half the set soup and just over one mouthful of the hot HK-style milk tea. Have I said yet? My first week of birthday MONTH celebrations have a total disappointment since I've not had a proper meal out since JANUARY. *sigh*

  • Back home, 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.

  • At 9pm, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and 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, since I've got a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage.  Bet she's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him; me, I just hope the rain holds off!
  • Also hope PIG mum remembers to take me grocery shopping and aisle walking before we come home for lunch with dearest dad else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Hopefully Michelle's replied to the email I sent her yesterday/the day before and filled in the TBAs for my roster this week else I'll  haveta ring her and ask toms arvo.
  • Also hoping to read for another hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 46TH time!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3787 (so yay I'm over 3.5   grand but sorry I'll not reach four grand before the night ends XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Gentleness'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • Then I took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also only softly, slowly but most hatefully sang my short second-favourite song out aloud five times since I   didn't wanna miss the 6pm news bulletin!
  • I had one tinkle before I   flipped the nice warm water off; since she'll not even dry my back for me anymore once she dried the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing up, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking  and  both laces needed tying.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo  again  and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3137. Ha, I'm over three grand.   XD  Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Since I'd reached my PISSY two-hour net time limit while I was about halfway through my Facebook memories, after I used the loo for one tinkle I sat @ the gobbling :P table and finished sharing them before continuing to read Matthew Reilly's Scarecrow And The Army Of Thieves:  I've nearly finished it!
  • After reading for twenty-five minutes, I called upstairs to PIG mum asking can you please gimme some arvo tea yet? I wanna shower before watching the 6pm news!
  • It takes her another five minutes to tumble downstairs, toss me a banana, pour me one mug of green   tea and pass me one plain cracker meaning I've read for thirty minutes today~ Oh, today I reached pg.   275 @ 4:53pm
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 615

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2655 steps (ha, I'm over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'How Can I Be Filled With The Spirit?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'When Your Mate Struggles With Insincerity' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional   topic's "God's Loving Deeds". Anyways, events for today?

  • Nature called once last night around 12:45am; after another pot :P trip around 6:15am I immediately tried falling back asleep since I knew PIG mum would come disturb me less than one hour later!
  • Cool, I managed to fall back asleep so deeply with Mini Pearl that I slept through PIG mum's noisy daily a-THUMPING around and didn't wake until she let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap! You'd think she'd help with the tee too now that Autumn's arrived and it's only gonna  get colder but no, she only spreads the tee open for me then leaves me to struggle into it. *sigh*
  • After giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P once more first, I get myself mostly independently kitted. 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*
  • PIG mum returns to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth but thanks to her who brought my electric toothbrush back for me; I'd totally forgotten to last night! XD
  • Teeth brushed, I 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.
  • Breakfast's one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with some salt, 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, I walk myself slowly and safely back to the toilet, 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 Cherry and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks outside the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the disabled loo once myself, wash and dry Era then grab my usual spot @ ESS.   PIG mum bolts back upstairs for the Canto service @ 8:50am.
  • Service starts one minute late today, Bernard's chairing and score I get to stay seated for worship! I sing everything, plus the harmony for all four songs but like every other week, meant   absolutely NOTHING. ><  *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie with another sermon from his Joshua series and service   ended twenty-four minutes early today.
  • After PIG mum came for me, I used the loo for another tinkle then headed around the back for arvo tea (one packet of Arnott's bikkies and one milky but sugarless tea). Uncle Stephen wandered over saying we'd not see him for lunch @ Hungry Jack's today, since he's got leftovers @ home waiting for him.
  • Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Everyone else had Malaysian food today but I was stuck with Hungry Jack's with   dad again and only had nine chips, not even   ten! Had a Whopper Junior, a small orange juice and some disgusting free coffee.
  • Got home, used loo for one tinkle and plopped online.
  • Toms:  presuming I'm seeing Ray for some massage and acupuncture then going grocery shopping with PIG mum before returning home for lunch with dearest dad. If not, expect a super-pissy  plodding total from me.
  • Hopefully Michelle emails through this week's TBAs for me, else I'll haveta ring and ask after getting home and find out who's minding me from 4-6pm.
  • Hoping to watch the 6pm news for   the 46TH time, provided I can watch it for the 45TH time tonight!'
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 613c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for Saturday! Em's final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3925. Sorry, not quite four grand; maybe toms! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • Back home, I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Sharon who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold   my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Had lunch, drank two more cups of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey then went and played table tennis with dad @ church!
  • Came home and read all afternoon; it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book~
  • Plopped online and did my daily Bible reading so missed out on the chance to watch the 6pm news - not that I wanted to; the Broncos lost SO badly last night!! *cringe* >< XD
  • Used loo for one tinkle, had the usual dinner, drank soup, took bowl to sink, returned online and used loo once more @ 9pm.
  • Toms:  just church, nothing special. Looking forward to   our once-weekly family dinner out; I've not enjoyed a proper meal out yet this month yet though. *sigh*
  • Anyways, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 613b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total   for tonight now stands @ 3847 (so  prolly won't quite reach four grand before the night's out, sorry XD and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'To Whom God Entrusts Hardships' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE MINUTE online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing Saturday's events?

  • Once PIG mum lets Sharon inside @ 9:45am and she knocks, opens the door and bids me good morning, I   get up immediately. After using the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That down, I drink one full cup of water before sitting over the loo. 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 head out to the gobbling :P table with Sharon.  Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with some avocado, another full cup of water, all my usual drugs :P and my first mug of white tea sweetened with two   sugars.  Over and after breakfast I happily read Wallaby Stew for thirty minutes, reaching page 100    @ exactly 10:40am!
  • After Sharon slathered sunscreen over my face and both arms, she washed up the breakfast stuff and closed and locked windows while I used the loo for one more tinkle and washed and dried Era.
  • Thanks to Sharon who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day. She tootled us off to Underwood MarketPlace,   parked underground and grabbed a trolley for us.
  • First, we bought a jug of milk from   Woolies (greeted Hambo with my Swahili - thanks, lion and Sharon taught me how to say I'm hungry but I've already forgotten it XD Hambo also slipped me a free   LEGO pack) then bought my honey chicken sushi   from The Sushi Creators (the Chinese worker from last week remembered me!  She gabbed this long stream of Chinese @ me; I apologised and replied (in Chinese) I'm sorry I don't know what you're saying, you're speaking too fast!" She roared with laughter then repeated slowly:  what are you doing today? XD
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^
