Sunday Post 610c

 One good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3453. Aww, sorry, not quite 3.5 grand; maybe toms.  XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • Took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today.  I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was all done after only 10% but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
  • Once she dried the back of the chair for me, I did the rest and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing up, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
  • After drying 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.
  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 175TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's second post.
  • Once the news ended, I headed over the freezer and pulled open the door before asking PIG mum where had she hid dad's present? I can't see it! PIG mum came over and pointed it out to me; I bent down, retrieved it then walked over to dad, giving him a great big hug and saying Happy Father's Day! Then I told him Peggy said you should share it, but if you want to eat it all yourself that's cool too. XD
  • Used the loo for one tinkle then climbed into the backseat of the car. Thanks to PIG mum who kindly helped me both ways with the seatbelt since I've got seriously sh*tty night vision. *sigh*
  • Dinner was from Ho Lin Wah, but everyone must've been out for Father's Day dinner tonight since the carpark was packed and dad couldn't find a spot until nearly @ Coles! Luckily Ho Lin Wah wasn't too busy, though.
  • For dinner I had nearly (but not quite) one bowl of rice, about half a bowl of fried egg noodles and one deep-fried cuttlefish ball. I also drank 1.5 cups of Chinese tea, half the set soup and just over one mouthful of the HK-style hot milk tea. Oh, have I said yet? Yesterday marked ONE WEEK since I last enjoyed a proper meal out; hope another one comes soon!
  • 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 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: PIG mum'll help me up, since I've got a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage.  Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him.  XD
  • She'll take me grocery shopping and aisle walking afterwards, so I'm confident I'll have passed one grand before getting home.
  • Looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online~
  • Lorraine's minding me from 4-6pm; hoping to read the Matthew Reilly novel for one hour!
  • Also hoping to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 176TH time after Lorraine leaves!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3323 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Heart Knowledge'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  •  Happily read Phoenix Flame for one hour, finishing pg. 222 @ 3:28pm, reaching pg. 225 @ 3:42pm, finding the book title twice on pg.  240 and again on pg. 241before I FINISHED THE BOOK @ 4:41pm!! The acknowledgements were finished four minutes later and then some book excerpt was finished @ 4:42pm. This author's called Sara Holland; think I'll Google her and see what else she's written, since I really liked this book!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2393. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of the day, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling: p table to read for one hour and munch the arvo tea (one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit, one plain cracker and one huge mug of green tea.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^ 
    P.S.  All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's, read by Mia Glover) for the 175TH (ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIFTH!) time: Pasarelli, Nuong, Ayol, Chol (first name), Kenzie, Solakis (heard), Young, Todhunter, Millward, Trump, Liersch, Wilkinson (heard), Patterson, Amalee (first name), Saunders, Sussan (first name, heard), Ley (heard), Price, Amos, Sabalenka, Anisimova, Stuart, Tsimpikas, Hawke, Van Lunteren, Ward, Desi (first name), Freeman (heard), Eckersley, Palu, Swallow, Prince, Foran, Burrows, Woolf, Hill, Georgio (first name), Greer, Gimbert, Crosby, Armani, Heagney, Atkinson and  Hasler.

Sunrise: 5:54am Sunset 5:38pm

Sunday Post 610

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1911 steps (so promise I'll have cracked 2000 before the day's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Present And Powerful Love'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Importance Of Good Thinking (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Dependance On God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, I'd only just started a four-day awesome sleep streak when nature immediately ruined it!  ><  *sigh* , 'twas still a sound sleep~
  • When nature called again after the Sun's rising, I used the pot :P once more then immediately fell back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy around 7am!
  • Sure enough, PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around  upstairs around 7am and wakes me for another pot :P    trip,  after which 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* Not only that, but I also a dream! For the 12th remembered dream of the year, EM are catching the train together somewhere, only I somehow get separated and am lost! o_O We're inside a train station somewhere and I'm not horribly disabled anymore but ambulating normally; I'm walking along the station when Kwany suddenly opens a door and appears! I'm so relieved to find him I instantly wake up. XD
  • PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the tops before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • 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.

Saturday Post 610c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3887. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I started reading and sharing my Facebook memories.
  • 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: just church, definitely nothing special. Oh, the special thing's that it's Father's Day toms!  Not looking forward to a pissy little lunch with dad @ Hungry Jack's nor a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum but definitely looking forward to our once-weekly family dinner out toms night and giving dad his Father's Day present!
  • Anyways,  looking forward to  seeing  everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
  • Em.  ^^

Saturday Post 610b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3757 (told you I'd crack 3.5 grand but sorry, won't reach four grand tonight XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Gifts' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FOUR MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • First, we buy groceries from Woolies (why I like shopping   with carers: they lemme sit when we reach the self-serve checkouts; wonder why the parents won't?) then I buy myself a honey chicken sushi roll for arvo tea while Sharon buys herself one teriyaki chicken roll for her lunch. Oh, yeah: Sharon's the FREAK that doesn't like bubble tea! o_O >< XD
  • Back home I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Sharon   who kindly helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, Sharon reheated me one delicious bowl of the yummy potato bake I'd cooked with Dorrie yesterday arvo for lunch! Just unsure why PIG mum had to SMOTHER/TOP the bowl with a thick layer of carrots? Also thanks to Sharon who makes me two more big mugs of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.
  • I sit over the loo for two more tinkles before Sharon tootles me off to church to play table tennis with dearest dad~
  • Uncle Simon's back! Playing with him's funny:  when he mishits a ball, he mutters grumpily to himself, "Oh, come on!" which reminds me of how Lleyton Hewitt used to yell "Come on!" whenever he won a big point! XD
  • Back home, I use the loo for one tinkle then sit to read for two hours, since it's only Saturdays I can spend a blessed three hours reading. This arvo, I found the book title on pg. 112, again on pg. 138, 139 and 152; then I reached pg. 150 @ exactly 3:10, found the book title on pg. 160, pg. 164, pg. 165, five times on pg.  169, reached pg. 175 @ 3:51pm, took a toilet break three minutes later, found the book title on pg.  185 and finished pg.  200 @ exactly 4:44pm!
  • Used the loo for one tinkle, plopped online and happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 174TH time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
  • Watched Riverfire from the computer; eighteen minutes of amazing fireworks! PIG mum had already gotten dad to start dinner with her but without me @ 6:55pm. *sigh* My favourite firework were the ones that lanced straight up from the bridge like arrows and Riverfire has some big fluffy blue mascot!
  • After getting permission to come eat dinner, 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.
  • Oh, tonight marks one WEEK since I last enjoyed a proper meal out; wonder when the next one's coming? Originally I'd hoped we'd have dinner out together for our GG social next Wednesday but unfortunately, nope.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccolini, lotsa some other vegetable I've since forgotten, lotsa soup carrot, one beef spinal cord bone with fragments still attached and three slices of the delicious potato bake I'd made with Dorrie yesterday arvo!
  • 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 brb after one more loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
