Sunday Post 669b

 Heylo again, good afternoon again and probably one final greeting for Sunday! Em's probable final, final greeting for Sunday now stands @ 2539. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, probable final, final events for today?

• I'd reached reading and sharing my Facebook memories from eight years ago when I suddenly realised that my PISSY two-hour time limit was up; I obediently used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table, waiting for some arvo  tea and hoping to read for an hour.
• PIG mum gave me some white dragon fruit, one tasty cracker and one huge mug of green tea but said no time to read since the dinner guests are coming @ 6pm!
• 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.
• I  had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off and called PIG mum back; since she'll not even dry my  back for me anymore after 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.
• After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry, dried inside the 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.
• Unsure will I return online since tonight's dad's birthday party!
• Righteo, maybe bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 669

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2153 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Served In Serving Others'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Start Small, And Keep A Winning Attitude' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Be Like Jesus'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip, I immediately try and fall back asleep since I'm sure noisy PIG mum would go a-THUMPING around very soon!
• Instead, around 135 deep breaths later, PIG mum indeed goes THUMP. Well, sleep's not returning. Instead, 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 lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately pulling on the tee then 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.
• Breakfast is one bowl of healthy cereal 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 us off to church and parks outside the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the second cubicle of the normal lady's loo (since the disabled and first cubicle of the normal ladies' loo have lids closed but horrid PIG mum won't help me lift them), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot inside the service hall and PIG mum rushes back upstairs for CM.
• Yay I get to stay seated for worship today! I sing everything plus the harmony for two songs but like every other week, mean absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie with his new sermon series: Choosing God In A World Of Choice and there was communion afterwards, but service still ended fifteen minutes early.
• After PIG mum collected me, I used the disabled loo for one tinkle, grabbed a packet of bikkies from the morning tea area then sat outside the service hall.

• When Aunty Catherine wandered over I showed her the photo of me holding baby Zebby; she took off her clases, peered closely @ the mobile and immediately recognised him! Then she told me he's nearly as tall as she is! (BTW, unsure why the font suddenly went bold?)
• While everyone else shared lunch @ Mum's Wok, I was stuck @ Rochedale Hungry Jacks again. A mini snack wrap, exactly ten chips and a small orange juice for me. Today marks THREE WEEKS since I last enjoyed a proper meal out. >< *sigh*
• Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me

• Forgot to note down when I started online so will just stay online until PIG mum boots me off; I can't move anyhow since Elf's big toe was hurting and PIG mum removed all her footwear!
• Tonight the Slams and Aunty A's coming over to celebrate dearest dad's birthday and tomorrow's Australia Day! Still seeing Ray for acupuncture and massage, though. Hopefully PIG mum will find somewhere open and take me for walkies somewhere otherwise expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
• The roster says I've got support toms arvo but apparently mother's already cancelled it?? *sigh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing  everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Saturday Post 669c

 Good evening again and one final   greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3431. Aww, sorry, not quite 3.5 grand; maybe toms. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• When PIG mum summons me over for dinner @ 7:28pm, I use the loo for one tinkle then walk 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 icky bitter vegetable, lotsa not-very yummy bean sprouts, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, two chunks of salmon, two pieces of tasteless soup pork and one delicious leftover potsticker.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink 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.
• Only the top of Elf's toe started hurting? PIG mum's said before tell her immediately; when I did she had me remove Elf's footwear than showed me I've got  sh*tty  sensation and 'twas actually the side of the toe that   was hurting.
• At 8:55pm I asked her to please put Elf's footwear back on then @ 9pm I walked myself slowly and safely once more to the loo for one 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. Would dearly love lunch out with other ESS peoples afterwards but it'll just be me back with dad @ Hungry Jack's, meaning it's been THREE WEEKS since I've last enjoyed a proper meal out. *sigh*

• Also expecting a stressful arvo  @ the hands of PIG mum. But hopefully she'll be too busy preparing for dad's birthday party: we're not having our once-weekly family dinner out tonight since the Slams and Aunty A are coming for dad's birthday party and I helped her make dearest dad's birthday cheesecake!

• Anyways, looking  forward to seeing  everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Saturday Post 669b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3329 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Stand Firm In Truth'. Righteo, continuing Saturday's events?

• Nature calls again around 7:45am.  After 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*

• Nature calls once more around 9am, just before noisy PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around. She lets herself into my room @ 9:30am to hit me with the   eye goo and gimme fifteen more minutes, since minutes, since Sharon won't arrive till 9:45am coz she's coming from an earlier shift and I'll get up immediately.
• Once Sharon comes, I get up immediately and use the pot :P for one more tinkle. After we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I drink one full mug of water and 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 Sharon. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with a very light smear of avocado, another full cup of water, all my usual drugs :P and one big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Over and after breakfast I happily read The Horse Whisperer for thirty minutes while I asked Sharon please to give Ela a massage after she'd finished tidying my room for me.
• While Sharon closed and locked windows, I used the loo for one more tinkle. After climbing into her car, she kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt (as she kindly did all day) and tootled us off to Underwood MarketPlace.
• Score, she lemme use   Sparkless3 again today, meaning I got to WINDOW SHOP!! Not that Woolies has much worth window shopping.  XD The checkout dude's from the same country as Sharon scanned our items for us; his name's sth like Hamiso? They both speak Swahili, but I only know two phrases in that language:  thank you and lion! XD
• 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.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch may have been one bowl of rice leftovers, but I definitely enjoyed two more big mugs of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.
• Sat over the loo for two more tinkles before Sharon dropped me off @ church to play table tennis with dearest dad. She's only twenty-seven and tonight she's attending her friend's (who's turning twenty-four) birthday party in Springwood but she's gotta  go  pickup her cake first! 
• Had great fun playing with dad but was grumpy to find out he'd cancelled our dinner tonight! Originally, he'd said we'd have our usual once-weekly Sunday dinner out tonight since toms Aunty A and the Slams are coming over for his birthday but suddenly dad says we've got leftovers that need finishing first; we'll eat out Monday instead. Only Monday's Australia Day and I bet the parents won't eat out coz there's public holiday surcharge! >< *sigh*
• Got home, used the loo for one more tinkle then sat and happily read for nearly two more hours while munching my delicious honey chicken sushi roll, since it's only Saturday that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
• Used the loo for one more tinkle, popped online, read my daily Bible passages then happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 17TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
