Saturday Post 328b

 Heylo and good morning again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2270 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'When You Give Sth Of Value.' Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • After Jacinta arrives, she knocks, pushes open the door and says, "Good morning, Em; fifteen more minutes." Daddy Bear gives her a paw nod and just like that she's left; Daddy Bear doesn't even get the chance to flick his paw 'shoo' @ her! XD
  • Once I've counted down 900 seconds, I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce "Jacinta, I'm hungry." She's inside almost   immediately and we get me kitted before I head over to the bathroom and 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!
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jacinta, who tells me that she had her usual breakfast smoothie for her morning meal.
  • Me, I get my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast (but thanks to Jane who added one slice of cheese for me), another full mug oof water, all my usual drugs :P and my first mug of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of   honey. Over and after breakfast I happily read The Last Druid for thirty minutes.
  • While Jacinta closes and locks windows I use the loo for one more tinkle, wash and dry Era then climb into the backseat of Jacinta's car. She helps me with my seatbelt (as she kindly does all day) then tootles us off to Underwood MarketPlace and grabs a trolley for us after parking out the front.
  • We both buy groceries from Woolies and then we both buy sushi from Sushi Creators.  
  • Back home I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 328

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2140 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Dirty Rags No More'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Having   A Spirit-Controlled Tongue (2) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'A Good Defense' but  fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still  owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 80TH time!!  Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday. 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 cuddled and snored, nature calling again around 7:45am.  After another pot :P trip,, 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*
  • More happy cuddling and snoring for Daddy Bear and me, 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 and hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Jane's arrival.

    Cheers,
    Em.    ^^

  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one unbuttered tuna in tomato and onion  toastie without butter and only one slice of cheese cut into four squares and one huge mug of herbal tea.
  • At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two more tinkles then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes. She's back next   Wednesday 1:30pm till 6:30pm for table tennis and will attend some wine tasting event this Saturday! Reminder:  check out redballoon.com

  • Used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm; thanks to PIG mum for a pad change.

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. ^^
