• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I  say every week, a very little's better than none @ all~
• Toms: Originally Morine said she was helping me up but  tonight I  got an email from Michelle saying she's cancelled for some family emergency hence emergency; hope she's okay~
• Georgia's coming instead and taking me to the NAB for two hours  physio with Vincente then seeing me home and showered before leaving   around 1pm.

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1883 (so  prolly won't reach 2000 before tonight ends,  sorry XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Big Picture'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Once  the news ended I called out and asked the parents to  please summon me over for dinner once it's ready. When dad immediately   replied come, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked 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.

• Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy wombok, lotsa soup  carrot, lotsa soup  tomato, lotsa soup onion and a little yummy salty  steamed meat brisket.
• 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.

• Suddenly I remembered that I'd forgotten to read for five more minutes after dinner and returned to do that! See, I like reading for one hour everyday when possible~
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip  @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Friday else wishing everyone a smashing end to  the week toms!
  Cheers,

Thursday Post 330

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1655 steps (ha, I'm over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Preach To Yourself'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Step Out And Do It!' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Prepared To Help'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 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*

• Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum begins her   daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let  herself into my  room to hit me with the eye goo and give por Elf  a  very brief rub, since she'd totally ignored my poor  foot last night. Actually, she'd hit me with  the eye goo last night then left me to get myself to bed; since dearest dad had already headed  upstairs also, I scooted the kitchen chair to the  fridge and got the milk, scooted to the benchtop and poured myself one mouthful, scooted back to  the fridge to replace the milk  then scooted back  to the dining table and left the chair in it's original position. XD Yay also that Elf wore her sock  to sleep last night although obviously Era peeled the sock off first thing this morning! XD
• When Morine hadn't arrived @ 8:01pm, PIG mum opened the bedroom door and snapped @ me, "She's not here Fifteen more minutes."  I immediately complying, asking  PIG mum please  to ring CODA on-call should she not have arrived by 8:10am.
• Phew she arrives shortly afterwards and PIG mum instructs her to  help me up @ 8:15am.
• When Morine taps me @ 8:15am, I sit up, say good morning  and use the pot :P for three more tinkles. Sure enough, she'd been stuck in traffic this morning.
• We get me kitted, I head over to  the bathroom and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and dry Era, 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  thinly spread with avocado and hopefully very thinly sprinkled with salt, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and another mug of Milo. Thanks to Morine who turns on Sunrise 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*

• After finishing breakfast, I ask Morine please to gimme (both hands, face and neck) some sunscreen then she walks behind me back to the bathroom then returns to the kitchen  and washes the breakfast stuff up. 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 passenger seat of Morine's  car (what luxury! Last night I enjoyed a ride in a BMW that had a SEAT WARMER and today I got a ride in Morine's Lexus! :D) and she tootles me off to GGCW! She kinda gets lost and doesn't park outside the library, meaning it's a longer than usual  hike for me, hence why I skip the initial bathroom  visit since I'm already ten minutes late but the meeting doesn't start until after I arrived and Nancy still  arrives LATER than me! XD
• Nine attended today, Tammy helped me once to   the bathroom @ morning tea time and Merlyn brought tiramisu CAKE and I even got seconds! :D Actually I even had 3rds and 4ths since she left me the last two slices and I  said I'd share one with Morine but Morine said nah you enjoy I've already eaten! There's three weeks until the  next meeting and homework's A face in the mirror.
• The meeting ended ten minutes early but since Morine and I stayed behind for cake and I used the loo once more before leaving I showered half-fast  after arriving home since Morine was leaving  @ 1:30pm.  Also, I bumped into Sarah Shakibaie (sp?) She was walking with one bub (maybe preschool-age?) and pushing another in a baby stroller but  said "Hi, Em!" when I  walked towards her (at the returns machine of the library). I've got awful facial recognition but phew, identified her.  XD
• Showered half-fast after arriving home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Morine who helped me rinse out my  hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one bowl  of rice leftovers plus one huge mug of powdered HK-style milk tea.  Alas that today marks one whole WEEK since I last enjoyed a proper meal out  but fingers crossed another comes soon!
• Only thirty minutes left, so just  briefly: took cup to sink, used loo for one tinkle, washed and dried  Era then read my daily Bible passages before popping online.
• Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I say every week,  a very little's better than none  @ all!
• Toms:  TBA which carer's helping me up  then taking me to the NAB for  two hours' physio with Vincent but I've emailed Michelle and hopefully  she'll  reply soon.
• That  carer will see me home, showered and fed with lunch  before Ari comes to give Ela one hour of  unfunctional exercises @ like 2:30pm. 
• Don't think I've got anything happening after she leaves; looking forward to reading the Carmody book for another hour then watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 168TH time, provided I  can  watch it for the 167TH time tonight!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to  the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good  evening and  one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total  for  Wednesday now stands @ 3734 and secondly, Joni's devotional  topic's 'The Business Of Doing  The  Impossible' but thirdly  and way most importantly, I'll really  still be owed ONE HOUR and SIX MINUTES online should PIG mum really boot me  off to bed @ 9:45pm!! >< But just noting down that PIG mum and I went to Underwood Marketplace and bought knickers from KMart and groceries from  Coles before Lana took me to table tennis -  for the first time in one MONTH there was CAKE and there'll be cake next week too! :D I thought Lana was in her seventies/eighties but she's not  even  sixty yet! But she left @ 6:01pm  after I'd showered and she'd cleaned the bathroom, even though her shift doesn't  finish till 6:30pm. Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 166TH time, wolfed down dinner @ 6:30pm, sat over the loo for two more tinkles @ 7pm  and Jenny gave me a lift to GG @ 7:15pm!

Toms I've forgotten who's taking me to  GCCW  but don't have anything happening afterwards. Hope everyone's having a smashing  week!
Cheers,
Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 330b

 Heylo and good afternoon again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1876 but  secondly  and way more importantly,  I('m  really still owed ONE HOUR and EIGHTEEN MINUTES online after I get home from  GG tonight; argh, it's looking like the SECOND CONSECUTIVE DAY when I'll not get the ENTIRETY of the most IMPORTANT two hours of the day online!! >< *sigh* Anyways,  events for today?

• Aww, nature called around 12:45am  and denied me the chance to start another awesome sleep  streak. *sigh* Never mind, 'twas a sound asleep aside from it~
• 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*
• Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore. Can't  remember did nature call again around 7:45am but it definitely did once more around 9am, just before noisy PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself  into my   room  to hit me with the eye goo and help me very  slightly with  absolutely nothing but the bra strap and laying  out my 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. ^^
