Thursday Post 325b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2837 (so won'tt quite reach  3000 before tonight's out, sorry XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Recognize Your Smallness' but thirdly and way most importantly I'm really still owed TWELVE MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Afterwards we headed across to  Chaffre and I got a milk tea that had both pearls and pudding and Fi shouted me some croffle:  AMAZEBALLS!! But she had to leave early to pickup the kids so I texted Louiza for pickup;  phew she arrived in time to pay Fiona back but she only took twenty bucks even though lunch was like twenty-five ninety and the bubble tea another seven/eight bucks! 
  • Got home and showered half-fast - 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 rekittted I sat @ the computer and did my daily Bible readings while Louiza cleaned the bathroom before I signed her off with my thanks and byes; she's back Sunday and we're doing the Bridge To Brisbane together!! :D
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 325

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1691 steps (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD); secondly,  John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Grace Must Be Free';  thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Vocalise The Scriptures' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Legacy Of Generosity' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I attend book club tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  •  Argh, 'twas the 4TH time I've missed out on achieving one straight week of awesome sleeps by ONE night! >< *sigh* I know why; I  was just too excited to be meeting Fiona for our once-termly pig-out! XD
  • Following the first daylight 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*
  • The next time I'm woken for the pot's when noisy  PIG mum goes a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle an exceedingly brief rub since she ignored my poor foot last night (as she's done for the past THREE WEEKS! ><" Never mind, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to  sleep butt obviously peeled it  off first thing this morning! XD
  • Once PIG mum let Louiza inside, she knocked, pushed  the door open and said "Good morning  Em; I'll help you up  in  fifteen, okay?" Daddy Bear imperiously flicks his paw @ her and she leaves;  when she comes back and tries to get me  up, she protests I've given you  fifteen more minutes!" I retort "You just said fifteen but didn't specify fifteen what so I presumed fifteen more hours. Get." XD Louiza burst out laughing and I obediently used the loo for three more tinkles before we got me kitted.
  • I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza.
  • Breakfast is one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread very lightly with avocado and for some reason the PLATE (not the bread) very lightly sprinkled with salt), all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Louiza who turns Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure. 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 summon Louiza back to please gimme (my face and both arms) some sunscreen and then  she walks behind me back to the loo before returning to the kitchen  and washing up the breakfast stuff up. Over the loo, 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 Louiza's driving (some lime green one; her housemate like took her car interstate?) and Louiza tootles me off to Garbo for GCCW! Thanks to her who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • Since we're held up along Logan Rd., we don't arrive @ the Garbo library till just after 9:25am hence why I skip the first loo trip and just head straight into meeting room one.
  • Just a small attendance today: only eight people! I tended my thirty-minute early mark when the meeting commenced, Tammy helped me once to  the bathroom @  morning tea time, Robert brought iced DONUTS for his 8xth birthday  and I just found out from the minutes that our next homework topic's 'The Clock Without Hands'.
  • Louiza actually fetched me one minute late but Fi arrived like twenty minutes late! She told me to order first but I was like nah.
  • Today I had the baked chicken chop  with tomato  and cheese rice witth a cold HK-style milk tea but I prefer tthe pork. XD Fiona had some kinda beef brisket noodle soup and we even bumped into  the Kwok family minus Matthew!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 325b

 Heylo again, good evening and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3449 steps (so will   have hopefully reached 3.5 grand before the night's out XD); secondly,  John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'How To Repay God'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Keep Marching And Believing'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Open Invitation" and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Just A Taste' but sixthly and way most importantly,  I'm really still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, events for today?

  •  Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past two days, nature didn't call until  6:45am 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* Before returning to happy snorings with Daddy Bear I call upstairs to  PIG mum and remind her please not to help me  up too late;  since she demands I hit the sack @ the piss-early  time of 9:45pm @ night; should I leave the  bedroom  but  re-enter it before twelve hours have passed, I feel I've have wasted the entire day! >< *sigh*
  • Nature calls again around 9:15am; shortly after the next pot :P trip PIG mum begins her usual daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself  into my room  to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the  bar strap and laying out the tee 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.
  • That  done, I bang the wall and ask PIG mum to please hurry up and finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces; it's nearly 9:45am! Still, she takes her time doing things and it's nearly 9:50am before I let her gleefully  FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. *sigh*
  • 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.
  • A fancy breakfast this morning; dad's badminton mate made some turnip cake for us! I also pop all my usual  drugs :P and drink 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 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!
