Sunday Post 609d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3735. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: presuming I'll see Ray for some acupuncture and massage but it's too early to ask him for a red packet since it's not CNY till the 17th!
  • Hopefully PIG mum can take me aisle walking and grocery shopping before she hurries off for her pool yoga class else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Also hoping Michelle replies toms morning about who's minding me 4-6pm toms else I've gotta ring and ask! But hoping to read Madam Hippo's book for another hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 28TH time!
  • Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3645 (ha, I'm over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Forbearance'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When the parents called time for dinner, I used the loo for one tinkle, climbed into the backseat of the old car and buckled my own seatbelt.
  • Like previous Sunday's, we ate dinner @ Ho Lin Wah. Pity the set meals didn't suit me today, but clever dad gave me some rice untouched by the spicy mapo  tofu sauce, and I enjoyed about half a bowl of yummy fried chicken  udon. I also had like 1.5 deep-fried cuttlefish balls, drank half the set soup, one cup of Chinese tea and just over one mouthful of the hot HK-style milk tea. 
  • Back home, I walked myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Anyways, hopefully brb following one more loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 409b

 Heylo   again, good afternoon again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3018. Ha, I'm just over three grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • I was sharing my Facebook memories when I hit the two-hour mark, so I used the loo for one tinkle, asked PIG mum for some arvo  tea then continued sharing my Facebook memories using my mobile while munching one adorable little sugar banana, one plain cracker and one huge mug of green tea.
  • At 4:30pm I asked and received permission to go take a shower.
  • So a nice warm shower for me  - I wash and rinse my   own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sing 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud. Actually, I'm all done after only 10%, but happily lean against the right side rail and water myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water off and calling PIG mum back.
  • Since PIG mum won't 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 doing up.
  • After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, washed and dried Era and 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.
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 409

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2739 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Eleventh-Hour Breakthroughs'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be An Optimist (2) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'When Love Shows Up'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Nature called once @ 1:50am; after another pot :P trip @ 6:50am I immediately tried falling back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy ten minutes later!
  • Success; I didn't wake until she opened my bedroom door! After PIG mum hit me with the eye goo and helped 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. Whilst doing so, 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 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 to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

  • Breakfast was one of the yummy polo buns I helped PIG mum make yesterday! I also popped all my usual drugs :P and drank 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*
  • 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,  I  hike up  the ramp, use the 3rd cubicle of the female toilets (since the disabled and first two cubicles of the female toilets have lids down but horrid PIG mum won't help me left it), wash  and dry both  hands then  grab my usual spot for  service on the most left.
  • Yay I get to stay seated for service today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Tyvus; his sermon was about the walls of Jericho and service ended twenty minutes early today.
  • After PIG mum collected me, I used the toilet for another tinkle and then headed around to the back since morning tea was held behind the service hall today! Unsure why?
  • I munched one little pack of Arnott's bikkies, drank one small paper cup of unsweetened tea and had a chat with dear Grammy Wan; is she really ninety-five?!
  • My first proper meal out since dad's birthday @ the end of last month: Dr. Lee gave me a lift to Mr. J's, the Japanese restaurant @ the end of Warrigal Square!
  • We took three tables; I sat with Dr. Lee, Dr. Esther, David and two others. For lunch I had the cheese pork katsu, yum! Table water for everyone~
  • Dr. Lee dropped off two boys off @ the local gym before driving us to lunch and he dropped me home afterwards only nobody was home! I sat on the bench outside the garage and told him I'd be fine only Dr. Lee rang PIG mum to check. XD Unsure why reception wasn't any good?
  • Dad arrived home soon after they left and PIG mum was right behind him.
  • I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage; can I ask him for a red  acket/pocket yet? It's CNY soon, surely!
  • PIG mum says we can buy groceries and walk aisles before coming home for lunch with dearest dad~
  • Tomorrow's 4-6pm shift's still TBA; may  haveta ring Michelle toms and ask~
  • But looking   forward to reading Leanne's book for one hour and watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 28TH time after I watch today's for the 27TH!
  • Anyways, hopefully  bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • While I used the loo for two more tinkles Sharon closes and locks windows.
  • Sharon tootles me off to church to play table tennis with   dearest dad~ Amazingly, she's lets me use Sparkless3 to head into the playing room! Obviously, dad immediately orders me outta the wheelchair once I arrive. XD
  • But we have great fun playing; dad not only lets me win in straight sets; I even get to win the final set he wants to save face!! XD

  • After using the loo for one tinkle I popped online, finished my daily Bible readings then happily   watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 26TH time.
  • All  the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s, read by Mia Glover) for the 26TH time: Balme (heard), Scwarzenecker, Dunbar, Murray, Scott, Makenna (first name), Baily, Drew, Camm, McKeon, Day, McGoverene, Albanese, Howard, Hardson, Allegra (first name), Spender, Sussan (first name,  heard), Ley (heard),Heinke, Dib,  Cleary (heard), Ahern, Armani (heard), Coventry, Bocelli (heard), da Vinci (heard), Ryan, Tsimpikas (heard),Ferlazzo, Guseli, Trump, Epstein (heard), Guthrie, Epstein (heard), Giuffre (heard), Eugenie (first name), Trump, Obama, Balme, Zoran (first  name), Solano, Gaffney, Brasher,Kobe (first name), Hetherington,Bellamy, Grant  (heard), Munster (heard),Tomasi,  Mariya (first name), Goray, Wylie,StolzThomas, Ryan,Smylie,Von (heard), O’wyer, Marcello (first name) and Sos.  Monkman, Dominique Loudon read the sports report, Alice SWtolz read the auction/property report  and Luke Bradnam  read the weather  report from Main Beach. Brisbane was 20-30 today. Brisbane toms: 22-30. Mt. Gravatt toms: 21-30. Sunrise 5:26am  Sunset  6:38pm


  • When PIG mum summoned me to dinner @ 7:21pm I walked myself once slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle then 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   cauliflower,  lotsa soup potato,  lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup carrot, one piece of fish and three little chunks of beef.

  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely 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 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. Actually, the special thing's I'll FINALLY get to  join EM for lunch!! :D That'll be the first proper meal I've enjooyed out since dad's birthday dinner @ the  end of LAST MONTH; a perfect way  to    start  my pre-birthday   celebrations! :D

  • And should dad take us out  for our once-weekly  family  dinner tonight it'll already be the 2nd time this year I've been lucky   enough to  have both lunch  and dinner out!

Saturday Post 409

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2652 steps (ha, I'm over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Reviled Here, Rewarded There'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be Optimistic (1)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Fountains/Drains?' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Fight Of Faith but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, for the first time in three days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am 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*
  • Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking for the pot :P   again   around 7:45am. After this second 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*
  • Around 9:30am PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and say fifteen more minutes since Sharon's not arriving until 9:45am.
  • Once Sharon arrives, I use the loo for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I drink one tall cup of water before sitting 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 very lightly smeared with avocado, my first mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar, all my usual drugs :P and another tall mug of water. Over and after breakfast, I happily read Two Can Play That Game for thirty minutes, finishing pg. 150 @ 10:38am.
  • After Sharon slathers my face and both arms with sunscreen, I use the loo for one more tinkle while she closes and locks windows.
  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the passenger seat of Sharon's car.  She kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt (as she does all day) and then tootles us off to Underwood MarketPlace, finding parking around the side and grabbing a trolley for us.
  • First, we buy milk from Woolies. Hambo's @ the checkouts and he even slips me a free LEGO bricks pack after I explain milk doesn't cost thirty bucks, but will he please round up and pass me one anyway?? XD :D
  • Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Sharon who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • 'Twas Sharon who explained to me last fortnight after my shower what's the point of showering if after you're dried, creamed and redressed you're exactly as sweaty and sticky   as you were before you started the shower?? Sharon laughed and explained:  new sweat. What you washed off was old sweat. XD
  • Lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers (thanks to Sharon who mixed some oyster sauce into it to make it tasty) and two more big mugs of white tea sweetened with   two teaspoonfuls of sugar. I happily read for forty more minutes, reaching pg. 175 @ 12:33pm.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
