Sunday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1369 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Who Killed Jesus?'; thirdly,  TWFT topic's 'Pray For A Revelation Of God's Love (3)" and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Serving Side By Side'. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once last night around 1:30am; following another pot :P trip around 6:45am I immediately fell back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy shortly around 7am!
• Actually I fell back asleep that deeply that I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my  room and hit me with the eye goo!  She then helped exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted; I comply with that after immediately struggling into  the tee plus  jumper, giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P for one more tinkle first. Whilst complying, 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 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 bowl of plain porridge,  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 buckle my own seatbelt (what I've done all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks near the end. I hike up the ramp, use the disabled  loo once myself for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then grab my usual spot for service on the most left.
• Yay, I get to stay seated for service today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Tyvus with another sermon from the Apostles' Creed series, This I Believe. Huge thanks to Pastor Peter Pie who Whatsapped me a copy so I can remain seated to read it whilst everyone else stands.
• Service ended sixteen minutes early; after PIG mum collected me, I used the 2bd/3rd cubicle of the normal female toilet (since the disabled's lid was closed and the first cubicle like occupied), washed and dried both hands then hiked around to the back for morning tea, where dad already had a packet of Arnott's biscuits and one soft plastic cup of sugarless white tea for me.
• Uncle Simon wandered  over for a chat! Turns out he's getting coached by this female Chinese player who's actually some high-ranking fancy coach where I play every Wednesday @ Brisbane Table Tennis!
• Everyone else had lunch @ MuiG  @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown but  dad made me eat Hungry Jack's with him @ Hungry Jack's while PIG mum was enjoying her coffee and gossip social with all her aunty friends. Alas it's been FIVE WEEKS  since I last enjoyed a proper lunch out. *sigh* Today I munched one beef cheeseburger (but the Hungry Jack's ones are yucky since they contain mustard) ten/eleven short chips, like half the orange juice, several sips of the disgusting free coffee and two/three chomps of the mini Drumstick dad shook with his Hungry Jack's app!
• Back home, I used  the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online,  always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Unsure where dinner's tonight but it'll prolly mark ONE whole WEEK since I've enjoyed a proper dinner out. *sigh*
• Toms: PIG  mum'll help me up, since I've got a late morning appointment to see Ray for  some massage and acupuncture. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
• We'll come straight home for lunch  with dearest dad afterwards; PIG mum says I'll buy groceries with  Jacinta after she takes me to Breathe for physio.  Ugh, last session was my 50TH hour of physio; also hope Winnie can help my sore back ... *sigh*
• Jacinta will see me home and showered before leaving @ 6pm; I'm hoping to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 117TH time, provided I can watch it for the 116TH time tonight!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 328b

 Heylo again  and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for today now stands @ 2674 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Wash Me Throughly' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed SIX MINUTES online after I ring Aunty Lai @ 9pm!! Righteo, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! I'd hit the sack that early that I'd fallen asleep  and already woken with a full  bladder @ like 11:57pm but after one pot :P trip had slept soundly  until waking  again to relieve myself @ 6:45am.
• After the first daylight 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; after nature calls again around 9am and another pot :P trip, 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*
• Shortly afterwards, PIG mum begins her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside  and awaiting Jacinta's arrival @ 9:30am.
• After Jacinta arrives, she knocks, opens the door and says "Good morning Em; I'll help you up in  fifteen minutes, okay?" Daddy Bear gives one  paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo!' @ her; Jacinta smirks but wisely leaves, thus saving her from  the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• Once I've counted down fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :P and announce to Jacinta (who's inside the bathroom) that I'm hungry. She immediately comes, we get me kitted and then I head  over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one full mug of water, I  sit over the loo proper. 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 Jacinta. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, very lightly  spread with avocado and yay, Jacinta even manages to  squeeze in one slice of cheese for me~ I  also  drink  another full mug of water, pop all my usual drugs :P  and enjoy my first big mug of white tea sweetened with of spoonful of honey.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

• Should've started my newest GCCW homework after publishing the  previous post but played mobile games instead. XD Will  begin after publishing this post.
• 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: Jacinta's minding me 9:30am  till  1pm. Presuming  we'll buy  my arvo tea sushi  roll  from Underwood MarketPlace plus any groceries PIG mum wants.

• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Friday Post 328b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3313 (sorry I'm not bothered to get up, plod twenty steps then sit back down for a new plodding total  of 3333 XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Place  Your Hope In Him'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• When the parents summoned me over for dinner @ 7:35pm  I used the loo for one tinkle 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, lotsa yummy cabbage, lotsa soup carrot  and 1.5 slices of that DELICIOUS chicken dish I'd cooked with  Christina earlier this arvo! Told dad I understood why PIG mum had decided for him that he was too  tired to drive me all the way to the Sunshine Coast for the table tennis competition but did he prevent PIG mum from asking for me could I get a carer to take  me since  he didn't wanna pay the petrol fare? No, replied dad.  It'a just too far. *sigh*
• 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.

• Righteo, 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 toms, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been  hard @  work plodding 3189 steps (ha, I'm over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Faith For The Future';  thirdly, TWFT topic's "Pray For A Revelation Of God's Love (1) and fourthly, Our  Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Seasons Of Love" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES  online after I  watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 114TH time!! Oh, and my final, final plodding total for Thursday's actually 2188 (ha, I'm over two grand XD) but argh the  Broncos lost   AGAIN! >< Anyways,  events for today?

• What better way to end the working week then with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down  the road @ 7:45am and started tipping bins; 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 when PIG mum begins  her noisy daily a-THUMPING around  upstairs. Soon,  she's let herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo  before returning outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival.
• Once Louiza arrives (on time, good girl! XD), she knocks, opens the door and says "Good morning Em;  I'll   get you up in fifteen minutes, okay?" Daddy Bear gives one paw nod and flicks his paw 'shoo' @ her; Louiza wisely closes the door and leaves, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• When she comes back and taps me, I  sit  up, say good morning and use the pot :P for three more tinkles. We get me  kitted, I head over  to the bathroom and brush teeth, sit over the loo  for one tinkle,  wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who tells me that she had a bagel for breakfast this morning.
• For the first time this week, I finally get  a slice of toast! Unsure why PIG mum has removed bread from my diet; apparently white bread makes you fat? The toast was very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled with a tiny bit of salt; 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, and also thanks to Louiza who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure~
• After breakfast I call  Louiza back please  to gimme some sunscreen (both  hands and face) and then she walks behind me back to the toilet before returning to the kitchen  and washing 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. She kindly helps me with my seatbelt (as she kindly does both  ways) and then she tootles me off to the NAB for my final physio session this block. We arrive early enough to have several minutes to play with our mobiles before heading upstairs @ 9:50am.
• Today my last session for this block  was with a Japanese student; Adam  was away! Physio today Weight bearing for Elf,  beanbag chucking for Era,  lotsa left weight shift and stepping for Erf,  a little right weight shift and stepping for Erf,  six laps obstacle course walking and eight laps long hallway walking.
• After one more loo trip, Louiza took me home the  long way, avoiding the highway, since her GPS had told her the highway had crashes.
• Meaning when I got home I showered my fastest - hairwash today.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, PIG mum made a tuna with one cheese toastie for my lunch with one huge mug of green tea. Louiza cleaned the bathroom then got me to sign her off five minutes early. She's back next  Thursday 9:30am.
• I'd only just finished lunch when Christina  came and cooked some chicken  dish with me! Luckily we'd just finished cooking when PIG mum came downstairs and shooed her away. I thought the session was supposed to last one hour? Will ask PIG mum why she shooed Christina away early.
• Arvo tea was one yummy peeled orange, one  tasty rice cracker and one huge mug of disgusting Singaporean herbal tea. Happiness was starting to read the new  book club novel for one hour, reaching page twenty-five @ exactly 3:55pm.
• Afterwards, I used the loo for one tinkle then booted the computer  up, recorded down my physio  for today and did my daily Bible readings.
• Happily watched the 6pm news  bulletin (Nine's) for the 114TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of this post.
• Toms: Jacinta's minding me 9:30am till like 1:15pm. Presuming we'll buy my weekly honey chicken sushi roll plus any groceries PIG mum wants from Woolies before going home for a shower and  lunch.
• Not gonna ask  dad about playing table  tennis toms; I'm too disappointed that I'll not get to attend the Sunshine Coast table tennis competition this Sunday. *sigh*
• But planning to read for three hours toms and watch the 6pm news for the 115TH time!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
