Saturday Post 327c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight!  Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1712. Anyways,  final, final events for tonight?

  • Reading for three hours complete, I used the loo for one more tinkle, plopped online and did my daily Bible readings then happily plopped online for myself briefly before watching the 6pm news bulletin for the184TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of today's post.
  • PIG mum said she'd call me for dinner when it was ready but instead she started dinner with dearest dad but without me? Luckily I heard the clink of  cutlery and called hey, may  I come eat dinner too?? *sigh*
  • Before joining dinner, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo fore one tinkle, rising above the 
  • cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Dinner tonight: the yummy rice, lotsa yummy broccoli, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup carrot and one delicious chunk of chicken, which I obviously saved for last.
  • Dinner's 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. 
  • At 9pm I ring Aunty Lai and PIG mum joined in the chat too.
  • Call finished, I walk myself slowly and safely once more 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. Oh, the special thing's that I'm joining EM for lunch!
  • Unfortunately we'll not have our  once-weekly family dinner out since dad's going for his scan next Monday but hopefully we'll make up for it Wednesday night, since I've got Toastmasters Tuesday.
  • 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 @ 1640 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'When You Feel Hopeless' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FOURTEEN MINUTES online while I  ring  Aunty Lai @ 9pm!! Meaning I'll leave the speaker on and continue surfing the net while I'm chatting with her~ Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • After washing and drying  Era, I held out to the gobbling :P  table, for my weekly Saturday breakfast: one fried egg on one slice of toast, my first big mug of white tea with two sugars, all my usual drugs :P and another full cup of water. Over and after breakfast, I happily read The Rose Code for thirty minutes, finishing pg. 475 @ exactly 4:30pm!
  • While Jane closed and locked windows, I used the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era then climbed into  the back of Sally. Jane helped me  with my seatbelt (as she kindly did both ways) and then she tootled me off to Sunnybank Plaza to buy $10 of sushi to redeem a mooncake!
  • OMG PIG mum lemme use Sparkless3 this morning, since when she came to hit me with the eye goo this morning she also gave poor Elf a very brief rub and noticed that she had more pressure marks than usual?? Meaning I  got to WINDOWSHOP!!! :D Jane was such a sweetheart, returning to the parked car the long way so I could look @ all the stores  and I swear, most have changed since we stopped frequenting Sunnybank Plaza after moving to BCAC in 2009!!
  • Back home I showered half fast - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who kindly rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to  hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekittted, lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers (huge thanks to Jane who added some oyster sauce for me for taste) and two more big mugs of white tea with two sugars. Over and after lunch I happily continued reading, reaching pg. 500 @ exactly 12:34pm!
  • Before leaving I sat over the loo for   two more tinkles and Jane went with me once more to the loo after we arrived @ church before signing her off with my  thanks and byes several minutes early. She's back next Wednesday and taking me  to  table tennis~
  • Well dad lemme win again today but I told PIG mum she should bok him for me anyway since he hit NINE holes into  me! >< XD
  • Back  home, I used the loo  for one tinkle then sat  down to read till  4:30pm since it's only Saturday  that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~  Today I finished the sushi  @ 2:49pm (I'd boughtt a kaarage chicken with  cucumber, a kaarage chicken with avocado and a teriyaki tofu to reach  ten bucks) and enjoyed half the tofu and half the kaarage chicken with avocado), reached pg. 525 @ 2:59pm, finished pg. 525 @ exactly 3pm, finished the delicious Chinese tea @ 3:03pm, forgot about pg. 550 butt  finished pg. 555 @ 2:23pm, finished pg.  575 @ 2:53pm, took a loo  break, dearest dad left for church @ 4:19pm/4:34pm and reached pg. 600 @ exactly 4:30pm!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1510 steps (ha, I'm just  over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily  devotional topic from last night's 'Life Hangs On The World Of God'; thirdly,  TWFT topic's 'Get Ready For Change (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Gifts Repurposed By God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-ONE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 184TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 16TH consecutive awesome sleep last night!~ Nature  didn't call until 7am and after one pot :P ttrip, 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*
  • Afterwards, Daddy Bear and I happily  cuddled and snored, nature not calling again until nearly 9am! Shortly after another pot :P trip, noisy  PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub since she totally ignored my poor foot last night  - like she's done for the past ONE MONTTH and two days! >< Never mind, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes last night and let her war her sock to sleep last night but obviously tugged the sock off first thing this morning! XD Once she hits  me with the eye goo and returns out into the house awaiting Jane's arrival,   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 PIG mum opens the door for Jane @ 9:30am, Jane knocks my closed door, sticks her head in, says "Good morning Em" and "Fifteen more minutes, okay?" Daddy Bear responds with  a single paw flop and just like that she's gone, thus denying him the chance to imperiously wave his paw 'shoo'  @ her. XD
  • Jane actually comes back half a minute  early; when she opens the door (without knocking this time) I screech "thirty more seconds!" and phew, she instead uses those thirty seconds to open the windows. XD
  • The thirty seconds up, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to  the bathroom to brush teeth. After drinking one tall cup of water, I sit 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! 


    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding  total for Friday now stands @ 2628. See? Told you I'd pass 2.5 grand! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post I had like twenty/forty minutes to happily play Jewel Queen while listening to the Roosters play the Dolphins!
  • At  9pm I walked myself slowly and safely once more 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: Jane's minding me from 9:30am till 1pm; fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme go to  Sunnybank Plaza and buy ten bucks of sushi to redeem a mooncake!

  • A fancy dinner tonight for mid-Autumn festival! Rice, lotsa yummy broccoli, one piece of yummy roast pork with crackling and one delicious duck drumstick!
  • 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.

Friday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2148 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD);  second, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Jesus's Pursuit Of Joy';  thirdly, TWFTT topic's 'Get Ready For  Change (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Acts Of Devotion'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 15TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road tipping bins and woke me; 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I cuddled and had a MASSIVE snore, nature didn't call again until like 9am! Shortly after that, noisy PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give Elf's ankle a very brief rub, since she totally ignored my  poor ankle last night, as she's done EVERY NIGHT OVER THE LAST MONTH! >< *sigh* That's alright; Era rubbed Elf's ankle for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to sleep but obviously tugged the sock off first thing this morning. XD
  • After PIG mum lets Jane inside @ 8am, Jane knocks, opens the door, sticks her head inside and calls "Good morning Em; fifteem more minutes." Daddy Bear wagges his paw once in acknowledgement of what she said and just like that, she's gone and he's denied the opportunity  to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo'! @ her. XD
  • Jane actually came back  thirty seconds too early but  since she didn't  try poke me up immediately (think she was opening the windows first XD) I held Daddy Bear back from giving her the Bear Bum. XD
  • After fifteen more minutes, I used the loo for three more tinkles, we get me kitted  and then I  head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After sitting over the loo for one tinkle I 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 slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully  very lightly sprinkled with salt, 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* Also thanks to Jane who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure~
  • Breakfast finished, I call Jane back please to gimme (front and back of neck, face and both hands) some sunscreen, then she walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast dishes up. Over the loo proper, 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 Sally and Jane tootles me off to the NAB for two hours' physio with Chan.
  • Physio today: Thirty sit-to-stands with left weight shift and reduced thigh support, thirty single leg push-ups on the tower of power for Elf, ten single leg push-ups on the tower of power for Erf, twenty double leg push-ups on the tower of power for both feet, Jenga for Era and snakes and ladders (getting up from chair, bending to floor to pickup die, rolling then moving my piece).
  • After sitting over the loo for two more tinkles Jane tootles me home and I  take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane for helping me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one yummy toasted tuna in tomato and onion toastie with only one  slice of cheese plus one *delicious* mug of Chinese tea.
  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two more tinkles before signing Jane off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back 9:30am toms; hopefully PIG mum'll lemme buy ten bucks of sushi so I can redeem a free mooncake from Sunnybank Plaza!
  • Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle then sit  @ the gobbling :P table, wait for PIG mum to please gimme some arvo tea then read for as close to one hour as I can before watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 184TH time!
  • Toms: Jane's back minding me from 9:30am till 1pm; fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy ten bucks @ Sunnybank Plaza and redeem a mooncake!
  • Free rest of the day after she sees me showered and leaves; hoping to read for three hours toms!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
