Monday Post 565e

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4636. See, told you I'd crack 4.5 grand! That's even rarer than four grand~ Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup tomato, one thin slice of tasteless soup meat and one tiny (less than 1/5 slice of crumbed fish dipped into some mayo.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; afterwards, I wrote out Christmas cards to all the book club members! That done, 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 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: Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm. Important mission: gotta buy presents (Christmas for both plus birthday for mum) for the parents! I'd hoped she'd stay until 4pm but PIG mum's immediately shortened the shift now that NAB physio's done for the year. Will remind her come the 15th to lemme use up all the funding hours I've got, lest that gets decreased again. *sigh*
• Looking forward to tonight: Sylvia's taking me to the pub for our Toastmasters Christmas party! Will check the meals after 11am and fingers crossed Viktor comes and gets me a vodka and Zach come with a bubble tea for me! <3 XD
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
  P.S. Tee hee, I managed FIVE posts tonight! XD Yeah, that's possible some Mondays but you'll only read one/two from me toms since I'm off to the pub for our Toastmasters Christmas party!

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 4460. Will have cracked 4.5 grand before the night ends, score! XD Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Over and after arvo tea I read the vampire novel for one hour, reaching pg. 200 @ 5:06pm and finishing pg.  200 @ 5:09pm, meaning this book takes me three minutes to read one page. After reading for one hour, I started writing Christmas cards for the book club folks!
• At 5:55pm I sat over the loo for one more tinkle then signed Lorraine off with my thanks and byes; she's attending our Toastmasters Christmas function @ the pub toms night!
• Happily watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 230TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's second post.
• When dad summoned me over for dinner @ 7:40pm I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely to the gobbling table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3784 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "I'm   Dying To Know..." Anyways, continuing today's events?

• When Lorraine announced her arrival two minutes late today, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Had she been stuck in traffic to arrive two minutes late? No, I was only one minute late, she protested. Lol, you're not meant to be late @ all! XD
• But a nice warm shower for me -  hairwash today. Also thanks to Lorraine 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, two plain rice crackers and one delicious mug of vanilla chai sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Originally dad had said green tea, but Lorraine found the vanilla chai and sugar for me, score!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 565b

 Heylo again, good afternoon and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday.   XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2227 steps (aww, why   couldn't I have plodded five steps fewer??  2222 would've looked cooler! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Messiah For The Magi'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Strengthening Your Marriage (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Hospitable Generosity'. Anyways, events for today?

• Grr, that's the 14TH time this year nature spoiled my awesome sleep streak and the 5TH time after five days! >< Never mind, 'twas a sound sleep apart from that~ *sigh*
• Following another pot :P trip   after the Sun's rising, 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*
• Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P when dearest dad comes and kisses me bye before heading off to church for some work, saying he'll come home for lunch.
• Again, Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P before PIG mum begins her usual daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself back into my room to hit me with the   eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bars the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
•  Once done, I bang the wall and ask PIG mum please to come back and finish with my footwear; it's already 9:45am and I don't wanna haveta be back in bed before twelve hours have passed else, I'll feel that I've wasted the whole day! >< *sigh*
• PIG mum finishes with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces and then 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 the less yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) 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 buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. Did I say last week? One disadvantage to her coming back and resuming driving's that she won't park right up @ the gate like dad/all the carers do! XD *sigh*
• After one tinkle I lie down for some acupuncture and massage. Unsure why the affected sides got sh*tty sensation? PIG mum was in her element, yapping unceasingly @ Ray; my grateful thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing.
• Following one more tinkle PIG mum tootled me back to Woolies: the duck drumsticks were on special and she bought FOUR! Fingers crossed dad lets me have one whole drumstick, not one with 95% of the meat already removed ...
• Back home I called greetings to Bettina before sitting @ the gobbling :P table.
• Lunch was a meager affair: two tiny slices of oven-baked pizza and one thin strip of crumbed chicken breast.
• Lunch was washed down with one huge mug of Chinese herbal tea; after taking the cup to the sink and using the loo for one tinkle I walked myself slowly and safely , always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Lorraine's minding me from 4-6pm.  Looking forward to reading the vampire book for one hour~
• Then fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 230TH time.
• Toms: Peggy's minding me  from 9:30am till 2pm. Trust PIG mum to immediately cut back the shift now that NAB physio's finished for the year;  originally, I was hoping to buy groceries from Pinelands Coles plus my weekly crunchy pork bahn mi  and come home for lunch  then head out  and buy  Christmas presents for  the parents plus a birthday  present for PIG mum before coming home to shower but now it looks like I'll haveta buy Christmas presents for the parents and a birthday present  for PIG mum  @ Coles! *sigh*
• But super-looking forward to when Sylvia takes me to our Toastmasters Christmas party @ the pub; fingers crossed the blackboard specials will have sth delicious that I can choose for dinner; also fingers crossed that PIG mum leaves me enough money for dessert afterwards!
• Also hoping Viktor will come and shout me a shot of VODKA and Zach will come and bring me a bubble tea!! XD
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 565c

 Good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3026 (ha, I'm just over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Bold Love'. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 15% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• I had one tinkle before I tapped the nice warm water off and called PIG mum back; after she dried my back (lol since she's just back from HK she prolly forgot that  she doesn't  usually  help anymore XD) I  did everything  else and she  didn't feature again until my bra strap  needed doing up, Elf's AFO needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, 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 230TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
• After the news ended I called out dinnertime yet? Dad replied go to the loo @ 7:15pm but before doing that I went and got my advent calendar chocolate from the fridge! Mother kindly offered to help me open it but I said I can do it thanks because tonight's was a lolly; I just put one side between my teeth and pulled! XD
• I sat over the loo for one tinkle before climbing into the backseat of PIG mum's car; thanks to her who kindly helped me with my seatbelt both ways this time since I've got seriously crappy night vision.
• Like previous Sundays, we had our once-weekly family   dinner out @ Ho Lin Wah. Neither set meal suited me, but thanks to dearest dad who ordered sweet and sour pork for me and didn't even gimme any yucky capsicum! I also had like half a bowl of stir fry beef ho fan, drank one cup of Chinese tea, half the set soup and one mouthful of HK-style milk tea.
• We also bumped into Uncle Tanny's family, and I even recognised Aunty Elcid!  Well, I'd forgot her name but knew she was Stanley's mum. XD
• Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely back online, again 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 too see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him.  XD
• PIG mum has also said we can grocery shop afterwards so I'm  confident that I'll pass  1000  steps.
• Lorraine's minding me from 4-6pm. Looking forward to  reading  the vampire book  for one  hour and watching the 6pm  news for the 231ST time when she leaves!
• Anyways,  wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
