 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3114. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Since our two families equalled six people, we took one of the longer booths @ the back.
• But another meagre dinner (about - but not quite - one bowl of yummy fried fish fillet with rice, about - but not quite - half a bowl of soupy egg noodle and about - but not quite - half a bowl of stir fry   beef ho fan. I also drank one cup of Chinese tea, about half the sett soup and just one mouthful of HK-style milk tea. Ella's starting Grade Three come Jan. the 27th and her current  favourite saying's "Can I ask you a question...?" XD Super-adorable!
• 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
• Lorraine's minding me from 4-6pm. Hoping to read the book club novel for one hour then watch pm news for   the 9th time after she leaves!
• Righteo,  hope  everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3014 (ha, I'm just over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Living From The Inside Out'. Anyways, continuing today's events?

• When reading the North Korean book for one hour, I reached pg. 150 @ 4:14. PIG mum passed me some arvo  tea (fruit, one rice cracker and one mug of herbal tea) then continued her arvo nap   on the couch.
• After reading for one hour, I started playing Royal Match - and passed three levels! Have landed on a super hard level to be stuck on for the rest of the year now. XD
• At 4:40pm I asked mother may I shower yet but from the couch, she sleepily answered 5pm. XD
• At 5pm I went and took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my 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  tapped the nice warm  water off and called PIG mum  back; since she'll not even dry my  back for  me anymore once 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 drying the loo seat I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet   dry, dried inside both 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.
• Did my weekly file backup but only listened to the news since @ 6:45pm we were meeting Boss, Ivy and Ella for our belated once-yearly dinner since we didn't share a meal together @ the end of last year from Ho Lin Wah!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 567

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2163 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'How Believers Will Be Judged'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Believe God For A Breakthrough' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Thank God For His Gifts'. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 11TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip I immediately tried falling back asleep since I knew that PIG mum would prolly get very noisy really soon!
• Sweet I managed to fall back asleep sound enough that I didn't wake again until she let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo! After she helped me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap, she left me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back 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*

• Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely back to the toilet, 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 the car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church. I hike up the ramp, use the first cubicle of the normal lady's loo for one tinkle then grab my usual spot on the most left @ the back and PIG mum bolts back upstairs for the Canto service around 8:50am.
• Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, mean absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Speaker today's Pastor Timothy; his sermon topic was Give Careful Thought To Your Ways.
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• After service I used the loo once, grabbed a packet of bikkies from the morning tea table and sat outside the service hall.
• Everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ Pinelands Plaza but dad made me eat Hungry Jack's with him again. *sigh* At least Uncle Stephen was there too; Aunty Yvonne's interstate with her physio workmates for their forty-year reunion! For lunch, I had the smallest chicken burger, eleven chips (it was originally only seven) and an orange juice.
• Back home, used loo for one more tinkle then plopped online and did today's Bible readings.
• Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day I'll use the loo for one tinkle then sit @ the gobbling :P table to read the book club novel for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.
• Presume we're having our once-weekly family dinner together out @ Pinelands Plaza Ho Lin Wah again.
• Toms: PIG mum'll help me up, since I've a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
• Hopefully she'll take me grocery shopping and aisle walking before we come home for lunch with dearest dad else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me,
• Lorraine's minding me 4-6pm toms. Looking forward to reading the book club novel for one hour and watching the 6pm news for the 9th time after she leaves!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead! Cheers, Em. ^^

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2532. Ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post I continued 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. Would love lunch out with other ESS peoples after service but expecting a pissy little cheeseburger, less than ten chips and a small orange juice with dad @ the Rochedale Hungry Jack's.  *sigh*
• Also expecting a stressful arvo @ the hands of   PIG mum *another sigh* But hoping to read the Korean book for another hour!
• Anyways, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2434 (so trust I'll have passed 2.5 grand before the night's out XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Go After The Lions'. Righteo,  continuing today's events?

• Score, Sharon lemme use Sparkless3 @ Underwood MarketPlace after she parked round the side; pity we only bought groceries from Woolies and sushi from Sushi Creators since I got to WINDOWSHOP!! :D
• 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 wad one yummy tuna in tomato and onion  toastie with TWO cheese, HEAVILY buttered on the inside and two more big mugs of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.  Over lunch, I happily read for another twenty-five minutes.
• Before Sharon tootles me off to play table tennis with dearest dad, I sit over the loo for two more tinkles.
• At church I sign her off with my thanks and byes. Unsure when she's back next but if she's not coming next month, I'll ask PIG mum to put her in for March since she's promised to shout me a bubble tea for my birthday!
• Dad and I have great fun playing; he lets me win again today.  XD But he hit me THRICE!! ><  XD
• Back home I use the loo for one tinkle then sit to read for another two hours and five minutes, since it's only Saturdays that I get to spend a blessed three hours reading~ This afternoon, I reached pg.  100 @ 3:42pm, reached pg.  111 @ 4:06pm and finished pg. 125 @ exactly 4:40pm.
• Used the loo for one tinkle then plopped online, read today's Bible readings (finally remembered to print myself a hard copy) then happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 8th time. All the things I like recording are in the previous post.
• When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner sometime after 7:30pm, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely over 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 wombok, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown melon, one small slice of fish and two tiny pieces of pork.
• Dinner was washed down with another delicious mug of Chinese/green tea with my awesome 'E' mug; 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.
• Toms: just church, nothing special.  Would love lunch out with other ESS peoples afterwards but it's not been two months yet. *sigh*
• Also not looking forward to a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum but hoping to read the Korean book for another hour toms!
• Righteo, hopefully brb after one last tinkle @ 9pm 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. ^^

Saturday Post 567

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2268 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Only A Little While'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Demonstrate Your Faith' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Today's Precious" but  fifthly  and way most importantly, I'm really still  owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 8th time!! Anyways, events for today?

•  Woo hoo, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:30am, and 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*
• Nature called again around 7:45am and once more around 9am, just before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around this year. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and gimme fifteen more minutes @ 9:30am, since I've said I'll get up once Sharon arrives @ 9:45am from her first shift. Oh, after the 7:45am 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*
• Once Sharon arrives, I get up, use the pot :P for one more tinkle and we get me kitted before I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one tall cup of water, I sit over the loo proper.vThere, 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 out to the gobbling :P   table with Sharon, rousing @ her for not eating breakfast this morning and informing her she'd buy herself some food when we went shopping @ Underwood Marketplace.
• Sharon fries me my once-weekly egg on one piece of unbuttered) toast very lightly   spread with some   avocado. I also drink another tall cup of water, pop all my usual drugs and enjoy my first big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Over and after breakfast I happily   read for thirty minutes first up, reaching page fifty @ 10:58am.
• While Sharon  closes and locks windows, I use the loo  for one more tinkle before climbing into   the passenger seat of her car  after washing  and drying  Era. Thanks to Sharon  who helps me buckle my  seatbelt all day.
  
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
