GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS!!!Toms I have GCCW but hugest shock: Ken suddenly passed away this morning! O_o Maureen is in some mental hospital; I didn't know but SHE burnt their house down! O_o Louiza will take me and see me home see me showered before leaving at like 1:30. Hope everyone is having a lovely week ~

 One final greeting and good evening for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ exactly 2000. Nice number, eh? XD Actually, Wally said only 1990 but the number pissed me off enough to get up, walk ten steps around the computer armchair and sit back down again. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I completed the first draft of my GCCW homework and started editing it for circulation!
• At 9pm I walked myself once more 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: hope PIG mum helps me up not too late and takes me walkies somewhere else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me, since I'm using Sparkless3 to go to table tennis with Jane and I'm watching Origin One toms night! GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS!!!
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 1971(so will have reached 2000 steps before tonight ends, sweet XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Great Cloud Of Witnesses'. Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When PIG mum summoned me for dinner @ 7:19pm, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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.
• Entree was one little corn cobette skewered through a chopstick then dinner was rice, lotsa broccoli, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato and like two chunks of tasty pork. Disappointed since the parents refused to lemme buy an UnHappy meal for lunch toms for lunch and make up for the one I'm missing out tonight since I'm not attending Toastmasters.  :o( *sigh*
• 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.
• Anyways, 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 toms else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final good evening for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 1875. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• After I'd used up the most important two hours of the day online, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to wait for PIG mum to gimme my rice for arvo tea and wait for CODA to ring and lemme know who's taking me to Toastmasters tonight!
• Instead, On-Call rang and said nobody was coming! >< I immediately messaged our YA group chat and tended our (mine and Jacinta's) apologies.
• Dad tossed me one yummy banana to peel and eat; when PIG mum came down, she also passed me one plain cracker and one huge mug of herbal tea.
• After taking the cup over to the sink 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.
• Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1759 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Design In Detours"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Touch Of His Hand' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Acting With Integrity'. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo, 15TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't  call  until 7:45am, 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*
• 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 a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
• After PIG mum lets Peggy inside, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door and announces good morning. When Daddy Bear flops his paw @ her in response, she next states fifteen more minutes. Daddy   Bear gives one paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo'! @ her; Peggy smirks but wisely obeys, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• Once I've counted down 900 seconds, I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce "Peggy, I'm hungry ..." Peggy's just next door inside the bathroom and comes over immediately. We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth; thanks to Peggy who's already squirted some toothpaste for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P   table with Peggy, who tells me that she had her usual two fried eggs for breakfast this morning.
• Me, I only get one bowl of plain porridge, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water for breakfast. When I Peggy for toast too, please, she says she'll prepare one for me when I'm in the bathroom after breakfast, score!  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, Peggy covers my face plus both hands with sunscreen then follows 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 Auto2/Tenor and Peggy tootles us   off to Pinelands Plaza.
• After parking, Peggy grabs a trolley and we both buy groceries. I like shopping with the carers more than the parents since they lemme sit on the self-serve checkout while they're scanning our items and today Vicki came and said hello~ She's a Queenslander too and I said when I come next week, we can celebrate the Maroons winning Origin One! XD
• Our other stop's the Pinelands Bakehouse, where I buy my crunchy pork salad roll from Aunty Nancy~
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious crunchy pork bahn mi toasted plus one mug of delicious white tea sweetened with one spoonful of molasses.
• After PIG mum returned home, I signed Peggy off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back same time next week.
• Lunch finished, I take the cup over to the sink, use the loo for one more tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Thanks to PIG mum who's promised me some rice for arvo tea, since I had a bahn mi for lunch and will be getting an Unhappy Meal for dinner with an orange juice but I've not had any rice today yet!
• Eep CODA just rang and Jacinta's pulled out late again; I mightn't get to attend Toastmasters tonight! ><
• Toms: playing table tennis in the arvo and Peter Pie's giving me a lift  to GG @ night but it's ORIGIN ONE toms night; GO THE MIGHTY MAROONS!!! :D
• Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 327f

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3245. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• After publishing the previous post, I started reading and sharing today's Facebook memories.
• At 9pm I walked myself once more 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:  Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm. PIG mum said we'll just buy groceries from Coles Pinelands and get my bahn mi for lunch; unsure why she's not   sending us for walkies @ Underwood Park? Prolly coz I'm still waiting for my new AFO~ Will chase Peter about it toms arvo but apparently it takes @ least three weeks to make?
• Jacinta's down to take me to Toastmasters toms night; will drop an email to Michelle since she couldn't mind me today.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 327e

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3118. Anyways, continuing today's events?

PIG mum returns 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 out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Unsure why PIG mum only gave me one bowl of plain porridge for breakfast and not one slice of toast since I had physio later that day? 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* Actually, I feel ripped off: how come PIG mum didn't gimme a slice of toast too since I had physio later??

After breakfast, I walked 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 climbed into the backseat of the Cherry and dearest dad tootled me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage with PIG mum sitting beside him. Sweet, dad parks up right front by the gate~

  Today I not only get acupuncture and massage from Ray, but I also even get a free ice cream since he drew BLOOD with one needle! o_O Relax, 'twas just a drop but our deal's Ray gets me ice cream should he draw blood   and today   he got me a RAINBOW Golden Gaytime! I never used to eat them coz I thought they contained nuts but recently found out that they were just biscuit crumbs and was delighted to discover they even come rainbow-coloured!  Dad demanded some and I very reluctantly passed my ice cream, but when he opened his mouth wide to take a huge bite, I screeched only a nibble! Lol, dad was so offended he passed it back to me without touching it. No problem, I just wolfed it all down before he could change his mind.   XD

Back home I read the day's Bible passages then plopped online before being summoned over for lunch, a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese and one huge mug of Chinese tea.

Less than fifteen minutes left, so just briefly:

Breathe physio with Winnie: extensions for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!1.645km bike ride, forty bar-assisted push-ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg extensions for Erf, forty leg extensions for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!

Bought groceries with Lucy (she's only nineteen and I was her first ever shift today!) then came home for a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Lucy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one yummy pear, one plain cracker and one huge mug of yucky herbal tea.  Happiness was reading The Two Lost Mountains for one hour; today I reached pg. 275 @ 5:39pm.

Watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 101ST time. All the things I like recording are in today's third post.

Summoned for dinner  @ 7:10pm, I used the loo  for one tinkle,   ate the  usual bland dinner, drank soup, took the bowl to  the fridge, returned online and used loo for one more tinkle @ 8:10pm.

Anyways, hopefully  bbl  after one last tinkle @ 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 Tuesdayy ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S.  Tee  hee I've already managed FIVE posts!  Yeah, that's possible some Mondays~ XD
