Friday Post 328b

 Heylo and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2654 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'When You Feel Powerless' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed NINETEEN MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

• Following another  pot  :P trip after  the Sun's  rising, 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 once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before 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 poor Elf a very brief rub, since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright, Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to sleep last night but obviously peeled it off first thing this morning. XD
• After PIG mum lets Jane inside @ 9:30am, Jane knocks, opens the door and calls "Good morning, Em; fifteen more minutes." Daddy Bear gives a paw nod and doesn't even get the chance to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo' @ her coz she immediately shuts the door and leaves! XD
• When Jane comes back and taps me, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then 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 Jane, who says she had her usual breakfast smoothie for her morning meal today.
• Me, I get two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with the yummier (so flaky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD), 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 on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure.
• Breakfast finished, I ask Jane please for some sunscreen then she accompanies me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast things 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, Jane tootles me off to the NAB for physio with Nathan. Thanks to her who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt both ways.

• Physio for two hours today: Standing boxing with left and forward weight shift, stepping Erf with left weight shift, stepping for Elf and twelve-minute comfortable walk test. Only the Scottish lady was @ work today?  Next week's the final one for this block, Nathan's got his next rotation up in like Rockhampton and Elaine says next block I may come back same time Friday 10am till midday, meaning PIG mum won't haveta change my roster.

• After one more loo trip Jane tootles me home and I take a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

• When the parents summoned me over for dinner, I used the loo for one ttinkle 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 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.

Thursday Post 328

 Good afternoon!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1915 steps (so promise I'll have cracked 2000 steps before Thursday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "The Day's @ Hand"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Paid In Full' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Follow God's Way". Anyways, events for today?

• Oh, nearly forgot! Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday's actually 2166 and Jane took me to play table tennis only traffic was awful and it took TWO HOURS to get home but she was a champion who saw me home and showered and even cleaned the bathroom before leaving! Angie took me to GG and Kwany led Bible study from some new series called Confident Faith: Apologetics For Everyone.
• Today: yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7am 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 cuddled and snored, nature calling once more around 9am, shortly before 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 before returning outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival, only to return @ exactly 9:45am and say "She's late. Fifteen more minutes." I immediately comply and start counting down from 900 but tell PIG mum when Louiza arrives, just tell her to help me up @ 9:45am when she comes. I'm correct: like thirty seconds later, Louiza rings the doorbell! XD
• When Louiza taps me up @ 9:45am, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After sitting over the loo then washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, rousing @ her for not eating any breakfast this morning. XD
• Me, for breakfast I get one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P  and Milo cereal, 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 ask Louiza please for some sunscreen then she accompanies me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast dishes 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 passenger seat of Louiza's car (can you believe it: she's only twenty-one!) and she tootles us off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown,  doing  a clever side park along level two and grabbing a trolley for us.
• After one loo trip I thought we'd buy groceries together, but Louiza says no, you can read in the library while I buy the groceries your mum wants! I grab Orson Scott Card's Children Of The  Fleet, happily read that for fifty minutes, found the title on pg. twenty-three, reached page twenty-five @ 11:46am, found the book title again on page twenty-five and stopped @ page thirty-one.
• After one more loo   trip, Louiza tootled me home and I took a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Louiza who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. Yay   that I could take a normal-speed shower since yesterday I had to shower most quick after Jane and I were stuck in traffic coming home!
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just super-briefly:
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was a tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese and one delicious mug of powdered HK-style milk tea.
• Signed Louiza off with my thanks and byes @ 1:30pm, although PIG mum kept yapping @ her for another two minutes before letting her leave. XD She's back next Thursday 8am and taking me to GCCW, which reminds me: I've gotta start composing homework!
• Took cup to sink, used loo for one tinkle then plopped online.
• Once I've used up the most important two hours of the day online, I'll use the loo for one tinkle, sit and read for one hour and ask PIG mum for some arvo tea.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 78TH time; couldn't last night since Jane and I were stuck in traffic until like 5:50pm before getting home! 
• Anyways, hopefully bbl,  else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Confident faith: apologetics fo

Wednesday Post 328c

 Good afternoon! Take two: Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total from Tuesday actually stands @ 2797; secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Why God Allows Suffering; thirdly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1547 steps  (ha,  I'm just over  1.5 grand XD); fourthly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Great Exchange'; fifthly, TWFT topic's 'Rely On  God, Not Yourself' and sixthly,  Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Prayer In  Disguise' but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm   really  still owed ONE HOUR and SEVEN MINUTES online after I get home and watch  the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for  the 78TH time!! Anyways, let's start with yesterday's events first!

• After I'd used up the most important two  hours of my day online,  I used the loo  for  one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to read the Shannara novel and munch arvo tea, but oops I forgot to ask PIG mum to  gimme some rice until   5:15pm, @ which point she refused since apparently frozen rice needs defrosting before serving? But she says she'll gimme a mouthful after I get home from Toastmasters tonight~
• At 5:25pm I sit over the loo once more for two tinkles and then @ 5:30pm Jacinta tootles me off to Toastmasters!
• Another paltry turnout: only six tonight. But Denise gives an educational give an impromptu and there's a new guest from Taiwan!
• Back to Maccas for an UnHappy Meal with an orange juice while Jacinta had a medium McChicken meal with a frozen Coke. Only we were both so happy chatting and didn't realise the time and got home nearly ten minutes late! XD But I signed Jacinta off with my thanks and byes; she's back Saturday~
• Repeat the usual nightly events and zzz~
• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 8:am 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*
  Cheers,
