Wednesday Post 323d

 One final good evening and  greeting  for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 3851. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • 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.
  • PIG  mum brought  me over one slice of the green tea  cake I helped her bake earlier; DELICIOUS! :D Even Aunty A took a slice home for later!
  • 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.
  • The Slams and Aunty A left @ 9:14pm~
  • Toms:  Louiza's  coming @ 8am and taking me to GCCW!
  • Doubt I've got the hours for lunch out afterwards but Rebecca's taking me out to book club toms night and we're having our once-yearly dinner out afterwards @ like Wong's/some other Chinese restaurant; it'll have been one whole MONTH since I last enjoyed a proper meal out!
  • Best  of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I  always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
  • Righteo, hope everyone's having a lovely week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday's actually 3804 (PIG mum said divide by  1.7, not 1.2) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Will Never Change' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really  still owed TWO MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing today's events?

  • Breakfast's one slice of toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with  avocado,   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  the Cherry and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). The parents climb in too, and dad tootles us off first to Hung's Auto  (in Springwood somewhere, maybe?) to borrow sth from Uncle Wah Hung.

  • Then dad tootles us off to   visit 28 Barradale Ct., the home he  built for  us all the way back in  like 1992! Wow, it's changed so much: not only is there a new roof but there's been a granny flat added!

  • Our final stop today was the Hyperdome! Unfortunately I didn't get to use Sparkless3 but we bumped into  our old neighbours Andrew and Jenny from Barradale Ct.; they're still  there!

  • I was hoping for Red Rooster  for lunch  @ food court  but daad had originally decided on sushi; we compromised on Japanese chicken  rice although  dad wouldn't lemme enjoy  a bowl  of chicken katsudon and restricted me to just teriyaki chicken while he  enjoyed KFC. *sigh*

  • Back home I plopped online to await Louiza's arrival  @ 4pm;  when she hadn't arrived by 4:05pm I headed  over to  the gobbling  :P table, intending  to ring CODA from  my mobile had she still not arrived by 4:10pm  but phew,  she arrived just then and dearest dad let her inside. Yup, she was stuck in traffic.

  • So a nice hot  shower for me - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza 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 juicy yummy pear, one flavoured cracker and one huge mug of herbal tea. Louiza cleaned the bathroom then asked to leave early, I  said sure just  lemme use the loo once more first.  She's back toms morning and taking me to GCCW!

  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's)  for the 180TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post. The Slam's and Anna arrived for dinner and started without me; I joined after watching the news and using the pot :P   or one tinkle.

  • Dinner tonight:  rice, lotsa yummy wombok and like three pieces of  dad's delicious duck.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo  again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 5174 (ha,  I'm more than half a  normal person today;  that's rare!) but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THREE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 180TH time!! Righteo, potential  final, final events for tonight?

  • 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.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 323

 Good afternoon! Sorry for only leaving placeholder posts for the last two days: Monday arvo and night Louiza and I hit the EKKA while yesterday I had NAB physio for two hours then Toastmasters @ night! So Monday's plodding total was 3296 (coz obviously I  used Sparkless3 @ the EKKA) but yesterday I  plodded 8000 steps (my best for 2026 thus far)! Now, today: firstly, I've been hard @ work plodding 4785 steps (sweet  I'm already over 4.5 grand; that's even less common than four grand!); secondly,  John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Different Tenses Of Grace'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Keys To Spiritual Growth' and fourthly,  Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Precious Parting Words' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY MINUTES online after Louiza minds me from 4-6pm!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep  last night; I'm not  really surprised I scored an  awesome sleep last night  since I plodded 8000 steps  yesterday;   my best  for 2026 thus far! Nature didn't call until 7:55am and after one pot :P  trip, I immediately  did the exercises Winnie taught me to  prevent  further back pain then 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  Bear and I happily cuddle and snore,  me not waking again till nearly 9am  for another pot :P trip. Soon, PIG mum starts her daily  noisy  a-THUMPING around  upstairs and shortly afterwards she's let herself into  my  room  to  hit me with the eye goo and help  me with  exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra straps and laying out  the tops before  leaving me to  get  myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately  struggling into the tops then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Firstly, apologies that  the previous post was all in  caps lock and secondly, Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2720 but thirdly and way most importantly I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-FOURMINUTES online while I video chat with Aunty Nga!!
