 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2062 (ha, I'm just over two grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Rejoice Every Day'. Righteo, continuing events for Thursday?

  • After my most important two hours of the day online were used up, I headed over to the gobbling :P table and asked PIG mum please for some arvo tea. She poured me one huge mug of herbal tea, passed me one cracker and cut up one yummy pear for me.
  • At 5:25pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then sat by the door awaiting Lorraine's arrival.
  • When she arrived, we hugged, then I climbed awkwardly into her car (it's bigger and has an extra step but not so big as to need the block that Hannah's Tank did XD) and she tootled me off to the Logan North library for book club! Whilst driving, Lorraine told me that her 18yo son requested to finish high school overseas before coming over to Australia and living with her.
  • At the library I used the loo for one tinkle then entered the meeting room; I'm third to arrive tonight.  Lorraine sits outside and I tell her to come pick me back up @ 7:30pm.
  • Twelve attended tonight; I learnt that Di's husband passed eighteen years ago and the meeting ended five minutes early tonight.
  • At 7:30pm Lorraine went with me to borrow the new book; I used the loo for one more tinkle and then she tootled me home.
  • Back home, I signed Lorraine off with my thanks and byes, also saying 
  • Merry Christmas since she's unsure when she's next back minding me. XD
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccoli and a little of PIG mum's yummy meaty egg brisket
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking the bowl over to   the sink I 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.
  • Righteo, hopefully brb after one last loo trip 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.  ^^

Thursday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, yesterday I was unfortunately still owed ONE HOUR and SEVENTEEN MINUTES online when I had to let PIG mum gleefully boot me off to bed; secondly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1232 steps; thirdly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'At The Bottom Of It All'; fourthly, TWFT topic's 'Will You Hear Christ,/Or The Crisis?' and Our Daily Bread's devotional  topic's 'Good Soil In God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:25am 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, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before noisy 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 before returning outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival @ 8am only to reappear @ like 8:01am and snap "She's late.  Fifteen more minutes." I immediately comply and start counting down from 900, reminding PIG mum please to ring CODA should she not arrive by 8:10am but I'm positive she will and sure enough, about 1.5 minutes later, she does! XD
  • When Louiza enters my room @ 8:15am and taps me, I sit up, say good morning and use the pot :P   once more for three tinkles. We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, after which I sit over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era I head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who tells me that she had bacon and eggs for breakfast this morning, the lucky thing!
  • Me, I only get one bowl of plain porridge, without even one slice of toast. *sigh* I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drink 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* Oh, also hanks to Louiza who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure~
  • Breakfast finished, I call Louiza back to please gimme some sunscreen before she walks behind me back to the bathroom then returns to the kitchen and washes the breakfast stuff up. Over the loo proper 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 passenger seat of Louiza's car, and she tootles me off to the Garbo library for GCCW! 
  • Upon arrival, I use the loo for one tinkle then find we're using Meeting Room One today. Louiza leaves to buy groceries for PIG mum.
  • Ten attended today, Tammy walked with me once to the loo for morning tea and brought CAKE and homework for next meeting's 'The Last One'.
  • The meeting ended three minutes late and I gave Avis (Rob's wife) a big hug before Louiza took me once more to the loo then tootled me home.
  • Took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, Louiza made me a toasted tuna with tomato and onion with TWO cheese and the inside for lunch HEAVILY buttered and PIG mum poured me one packet of powdered instant HK-style milk tea~
  • Signed Louiza off with my thanks and byes @ 1:15pm; she's back same time next week.
  • Lunch finished, I took the cup over to the sink, used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Once I've used up the most important two hours online, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea before sitting over the loo for two more tinkles @ 5:25pm since Lorraine's coming @ 5:30pm and taking me to book club!
  • Best of all, it's ice cream night tonight! Like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all~
  • Toms: Jane's coming from 8am till 2pm and taking me to the NAB for the start of a new block!
  • Jane will see me home and showered but then I've forgotten who's coming over and cooking with me; unsure has PIG mum chosen a recipe yet?
  • Looking forward too starting the new book club novel (reading the book for one hour) and hoping to watch the 6pm news for the 91ST time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl tonight, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1278 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Why We Should Love Our Enemies'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "The Whole World Must Hear God's Word' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Waiting For The Harvest' but fifthly   and  way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FOORTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I  get home from GG tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last pppnight! Nature didn't call until 7:15am 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 needq 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, me waking once more for the pot :P around 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 exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap and spreading out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. Good grief, I realised I was in for a difficult day when I hadn't even started getting myself kitted yet but PIG mum was already GOING ON @ ME over something/other! >< *sigh*

    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 326

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard   @ work plodding 1970 steps (so promise I'll have reached two grand before the day's out   XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Go Onto The Meal'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'When You Long For Companionship' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Growing Our Knowledge Of God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for Sydney just after 6:05am! The Sun hadn't fully risen yet, so I asked my bladder please may I sleep until the Sun has fully risen before using the pot :P, since I wanna score an awesome night's sleep? 
  • She replied yes, so Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored until 7:05am before I swung myself over to the pot: p for one tinkle; yay, awesome sleep last night! 
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and continued snoring, nature not calling again until nearly 9am. Shortly after another pot :P trip, noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and returning outside to await Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After PIG mum lets Peggy inside @ 9:30am, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door and announces, "Good morning!" When Daddy   Bear flops his paw hello @ her, she next states "Fifteen more minutes." Daddy Bear gives a paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo!' @ her; Peggy smirks, wisely closes the door and leaves us be.  XD
  • Actually, she returns thirty seconds too early and Daddy Bear's all for giving her the Bear Bum but I instruct him hold; maybe she'll not try to get me up yet. Sure enough Peggy goes and washes my glasses for me instead!
  • Once I've counted down from 900 seconds, I announce to Peggy that I'm hungry and sit up. She enters my room, we bid each other good morning, I use the pot :P for one tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who squirted some toothpaste for me.
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, who says she had her usual two fried eggs for breakfast this morning.
  • Me, I don't even get a slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with my plain porridge. *sigh* 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*
  • After Peggy covers me with sunscreen and follows me back to the bathroom, she returns to the kitchen and washes 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 I wash and dry Era, I climb into the backseat of Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles me off to Pinelands Plaza. Thanks to her who helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • Peggy finds a disabled park and grabs a trolley for us. First, we both buy groceries from Coles. While Peggy was scanning our items I sat on the self-serve checkout, and Vicki came and says hi! Think I've said before? She lives in Algester.
  • Groceries bought, we then head down too the Pinelands Bakehouse and order my crunchy pork bahn mi from Uncle. Where's Aunty Nancy? I ask Uncle, who replies "Doctor/hospital." I gasp is she okay?? But uncle gives a casual wave with his hand; I take that to mean nothing serious.
  • Back home I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious crunchy pork bahn mi plus one huge mug of yummy lady Grey white tea. Just unfortunate that Peggy couldn't find the honey that Jacinta found yesterday! XD
  • At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two more tinkles then sign Peggy off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next week.
  • I read my daily Bible verses than plopped online; once I've used up the most important two hours of the day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea (I need RICE! XD) before sitting over the loo for two tinkles coz Daisy's taking me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm! Unsure where Jacinta went?
  • Toms: PIG mum says she'll help me up and take me for walkies somewhere before Jane takes me to table tennis!
  • Hoping to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 90TH time; also hoping PIG mum'll gimme dinner when Jane leaves @ 6:30pm since Jenny's coming and giving me a lift to GG @ 7:15pm!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day tooms!

Monday Post 326c

 Good evening and probably one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3070 (ha, I'm just over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Delighting In   Hardships'. Anyways, probable final, final events for tonight?

  • Have forgotten did nature call again around 7:45am but it definitely did around 9am, just before PIG mum began her daily 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 and laying out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • PIG mum returns and 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. That done, 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 is one/two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix with 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 bathroom, 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 and she tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage.  Obviously, I buckled my own seatbelt all day.
  • At Ray's, I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some massage and acupuncture and massage. PIG mum's in her element, yapping unceasingly @ Ray; gracious thanks to Ray who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. Actually, PIG mum deserves commendation too: she only repeated one word five times today! XD
  • Maybe we bought groceries from Woolies before returning home? Lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers~
  • At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then sat by the door awaiting Jacinta's arrival @ 2pm.
  • Once she arrived, I climbed into her car, and she tootled me off to Breathe for physio.
  • Physio today: 1.66km bike ride, forty bar-assisted push-ups, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift, forty steps for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg extensions for Erf, forty leg curls for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!
  • After one bathroom trip, I climbed back into Jacinta's car and she tootled me back   to the Sunny Park Woolies for grocery   shopping and got a trolley for us. Only the freebie guy wasn't there AGAIN! *hmph*
  • Only twenty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Got home and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta 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 one yummy banana, one plain cracker and thanks to Jacinta who found the honey and made me one big mug of delicious vanilla chai sweetened with one spoonful!
  • Only got to watch half the news since we suddenly went down to the Glen Hotel for dinner and OMG, the parents lemme use Sparkless3!! Lucky I had rice for lunch else I'd be fretting right now! XD
  • Didn't eat much (one slice of floppy pizza, one/two little chunks of roasted potato, one little slice of burger, a few Caesar salad leaves and one piece of egg) but 'twas yummy~
  • Got home, used the loo   for one tinkle then plopped online.
  • Toms:  Peggy's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. Presume we're buying groceries from   Woolies plus my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi.
  • Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online after I read the day's Bible passages~
  • PIG mum had better remember to gimme some RICE for arvo  tea since after Jacinta takes me to Toastmasters, I'm only gonna get an UnHappy Meal with an orange juice!!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,Em. ^^
