Monday Post 330d

 One final good evening and  greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3268. Righteo, less than twenty minutes left, so just briefly?

  • Bought groceries with Queenie @ the Sunny Park Woolies then came home for a nice hot  shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to  Queenie  who   helped me rinse out my  hair, thus freeing  Era to hold my    stupid  right eye tightly  shut.
  • Dried, creamed  and rekitted, I had arvo  tea,  said my thanks and byes to    Queenie @ 6pm  then watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's)  for  the 152ND time.
  • Used  loo for one tinkle, had dinner, drank   soup, took bowl to  sink, returned online and  used  loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me from  9:30am till like 4pm. We'll buy groceries from  Coles, buy my crunchy pork bahn mi  for lunch from the Pinelands  Bakehouse, come home  for lunch, head out to the NAB for  two hours' physio with Sarah and come  home for a shower before Peggy leaves @ 4pm.
  • Excitement: Lorraine's taking me too the pub for our Toastmasters changeover function toms night; it'll be  my first proper meal out  in just over one MONTH and hope somebody  shouts me a vodka! XD
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day  toms!
    Cheers,Em.  ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3198 (ha, I'm over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's  'When You Offer To Help' but thirdly and way most importantly,  I'm really still owed TWENTY-TWO MINUTES online after I use the  loo once  more  @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing today's events?

  • Following the first  daylight pot :P trip around 7:35am 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 B ear and I happily  cuddle and snore,  me waking for the pot :P once more around  9am shortly before PIG mum begins her  daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into myt room to  hit me with the eye goo  and give poor Elf a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright; Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock  to  sleep  last night but obviously peeled the sock off first thing this morning! XD
  • PIG mum helps exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing  but 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 and giving  myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • Once that's done I bang the wall and ask PIG mum to pleasew finish with  Elf's AFO straps and both laces so I   can go brush teeth; it's nearly 9:45am and since the parents I hit the sack @ 9:45pm if I'm already back in bed before twelve  hours have passed I'll feel  likje  I've wasted  the entire day! >< Still,  PIG mum  takes her time about it, meaning I don't exit the bedroom to go brush teeth until  just after 9:50am. *sigh*
  • After brushing teeth I sit over the loo for one tinkle,  wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely out  to the gobbling  :P table for breakfast,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Breakfast is  one slice of dry (unbuttered)  toast very lightly spread with  some avocado   and hopefully  sprinkled very lightly  with some salt, one mug of warm  Milo,  all my usual drugs :P and another tall 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*
  • 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 walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. While waiting for PIG mum  to  get ready, I start reading the day's Bible passages.

  • Once PIG mum's done, I climb into  thee backseat of her car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do both ways). She tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture  and massage, just parking on the driveway.

  • At Ray's,  I use the loo for one tinkle theen lie down for some massage (I  finally understand what's 'good pain' now XD) and acupuncture.  PIG mum's in her element,  yapping ceaselessly @ Ray with repeated syllables (her record today was five XD); my grateful thanks to  Ray who  always  replied and kept a  conversation   flowing. Not seeing him next week,  since he's taking his family interstate down to  Sydney for the  semester break!

  • Back home I finish  reading  the day's Bible verses then tootle briefly online before being summoned for lunch.

  • Today I  eat two little slices of topped-up oven-baked pizza, two little chunks of crusty garlic bread and drink one huge mug of  herbal tea. 

  • Thanks to the cleaner who  takes the dishes to  the sink for me; I return briefly online then  sit over the loo for two tinkles before sitting beside the front  door awaiting the carer's arrival  @ 2pm.

  • Queenie arrived and tootled  me off to Breathe for physio. We  joked about  getting KFC afterwards. XD

  • Physio today: 1.648km bike ride, forty bar-assissted push ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with more left weight shift, forty steps for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg curls for Erf, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg extensions for Erf, forty leg extensions and boxing!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 330c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2011. Ha, I'm just over two grand. XD Ohh, and secondly,  Joni's devotional topic's 'The Man Beside The Pool @ Bethesda. Anyways, final, final events for tonight5?

  • Once the news ended, I used the loo for one tinkle then climbed into the backseat of the Chery.
  • Dinner tonight was @ Ho Lin  Wah again but the Slams joined us; they'd WALKED from their house!
  • Neither set meal suit me today but I ate less than one bowl of rice, just  over half  a bowl of fried egg noodle, one deep-fried cuttlefish  ball and drank  one cup of  Chinese tea, half a cup of warm Ovaltine, half the set soup  and exactly one full mouthful of the hot HK-style milk tea.
  • Since there  hadn't  been any  parking  available when we'd arrived,  dad had dropped PIG mum and I off around  the Cheesecake Shop before finding a park  slightly beyond the fruit market. Obviously dad dropped the Slams back home;  can't believe they'd walked all the way to Pinelands Plaza in complete darkness!
  • 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  to see Ray   for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him.  XD Oh, and I'll not see him next week coz it's semester break then and he's taking his family holidaying somewhere!
  • Will come home and eat lunch with  dearest dad before  Jacinta comes @ 2pm and takes me   to     Breathe for physio  @ 2:30pm. PIG mum  says we can buy groceries together afterwards.
  • Jacinta will see me home and showered before leaving   @ 6pm;  I'm hoping to  read the witch book for one  hour then watch the 6pm news bulletin for the  152ND time!
  • Anyways,  wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 330

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work  plodding 1394 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic's 'A Hiding Place For The Helpless'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Spiritual Pathways (3)' and fourthly, Our  Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Sweeter Than Honey'. Anyways,  events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night!  Nature didn't  call until 7:00am and after one pot :P trip  I immediately try and fall back asleep since didn't PIG mum  say last night she'd wake me up @ like :05am?
  • About  twenty-five breaths into  counting myself  back to sleep, noisy  PIG mum goes THUMP and I  realise sleep's not gonna come back. 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  before giving poor Elf a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright; Era rubbed Elf  for fifteen minutes last night and allowed her to wear her sock to sleep afterwards but obviously peeled the sock off first thing this morning! XD PIG also helps 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 and 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 of the chocolate muffins I helped PIG mum  bake   for  Dr. Lee (his birthday was yesterday) last night;  CHOCOLATE for BREAKFAST CAN'T BE WRONG!! :D I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain one tall 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*
  • Breakfast finished 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 back 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 disabled toilet once myself (the seat was up, but  so  was the lid), wash  and dry Era then take my usual spot inside the service hall, the most left seat in  the back row.

  • Yay I get to stay seated for worship today! I sang  everything, plus the harmony for   three songs but like  every other  week, meant absolutely NOTHING ><  *sigh*  Also  thanks to Pastor Peter Pie who pinned our WhatsApp message so  I can access the PowerPoint worship  slides every Sunday~

  • Today's speaker was Ryan from Compassion. Wonder did the squeaky-voice guy  before him retire?

  • Service  ended  ten minutes early  today. I used the 2nd cubicle of the  normal female  toilet (the disabled loo's lid was down  and mean mother wouldn't lift it for me; but yay that the 2nd cubicle had lid up and seat   down), washed and dried both hands then hiked out  around the back for morning  tea, where   dearest   dad already  had an  unsweetened white tea and a packet of Arnott's bikkies ready  for me.

  • While everyone  else from  ESS shared Indonesian food for lunch  and PIG mum   was enjoying her weekly gossip and coffee social with her aunty friends, dad  made me eat Hungry Jack's with him  again.  It's been  FOUR  WEEKS/ONE WHOLE MONTH since I last enjoyed a proper meal out. *sigh*

  • But today I had a junior Whopper,  ten surprisingly long chips, 1/3 the orange and mouthfuls of Hungry Jack's disgusting   free coffee.

  • After dad tootled us home I used the loo for one more 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 over.

  • Once  I've used up  my most important two hours of the day online I'll use the  loo  for  one tinkle, sit  @ the gobbling :P  table and finish  sharing my Facebook memories before hopefully reading the monster book for one hour; it's really good!

  • Toms:  PIG mum'll  help me up,  since I've got a morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage; bet  she's simply  DYING  to  yap ceaselessly @ him. XD

  • Will eat lunch with dad @ home before Jacinta comes @ like 2pm and takes me to Breathe for physio. Presume we're buying groceries afterwards, before Jacinta sees me home, showered  and leaves @ 6pm.

  • Hoping to watch the 6pm news for  the 152ND  time, provided I can   watch it  for the 151ST time tonight!

  • Anyways, hopefully  bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week  ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^
