Tuesday Post 609

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1811 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Better Than Money, Sex And Power'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Rescue Me' and fourthly, Our   Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Exchange' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SIXTEEN MINUTES online after I get  home from Toastmasters tonight!! >< *sigh* Anyways, just briefly, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:35am~
  • Louisa helped me up @ 9:45am, took me to Pinelands Plaza to buy my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi for lunch but still no luck persuading PIG mum to  lemme enjoy a Vietnamese iced coffee. >< *sigh*
  • Came home for lunch before Louisa tootled me off to the NAB @ UQ.
  • Physio with Vien today: Stepping for Erf with left weight shift, sixteen laps along double red mats over block, 24 double leg squats on the tower of power for both legs and 36 single leg squats on the tower of power for Elf. Why I always check that I have a flat surface to walk over: today Vien had me walking over the double red mats and stepping over blocks; Erf cleared it but stupid Elf clipped it when going over; I hopped several times on Erf and would have faceplanted has not Vien caught me! o_O
  • Came home for a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louisa who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, thanks to PIG mum who gave me some rice for  arvo tea otherwise I'd be fretting tonight since I've not had any today! o_O
  • Had to hike upstairs to the loo for one tinkle afterwards since silly Louisa forgot to life the loo lid for me. Must remind her to do that on Thursday since she's back taking me to GCCW then the NAB for SPs!
  • Toastmasters tonight! *sigh* that I'm only getting an Unhappy meal for dinner ...  *sigh*
  • Toms: will PIG mum   REALLY take me to Excellent Cup for shaved ice!! Will prolly haveta buy groceries from Coles and unsure will she gimme any lunch afterwards before Jane takes me to table tennis; fingers crossed for cake!
  • Need dinner @ 6:30pm when Jane leaves since someone's gonna gimme a lift for our first GG this year; I'm back with Pastor Peter Pie!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing day ahead!
    Cheers,

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3416. Sorry, not quite 3.5 grand. Maybe toms. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I returned to sharing my Facebook memories but @ 8:45pm decided to play Crazy Manor Match instead. XD
  • 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: Louisa's minding me from 9:30am till 4pm. We'll buy groceries from Pinelands Coles plus my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi for lunch, return home for lunch then leave @ 12:15pm for NAB physio with Vien and Alvin.
  • Louisa will see me home and showered before leaving @ 4pm; after shower, I'll skip the reading and pop online immediately since Lorraine's taking me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm so I'll need some rice for arvo tea since I'm only gonna get an UnHappy Meal for dinner!

  • Meaning I'll only post once/twice toms but today I've managed SIX posts, tee hee! Just don't ask me  why  the font suddenly went MASSIVE. XD
  • Phew think I've changed it  back? XD
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing Tuesday ahead!
    Cheers,

Monday Post 609d

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3348 (so   won't quite reach 3500 before the night's out, sorry XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's ' Do Not Lose Heart'. Righteo, continuing events?

  • Dried, creamed and  rekitted, arvo tea was one adorable little sugar banana, one plain cracker and one mug of delicious mug of earl grey tea sadly without sweetener but @ least wilk milk.
  • Happiness was reading Leanne's book for another hour; today I reached pg. 275 @ exactly 4:44pm and then reached pg.  300 @ exactly 5:30pm! While I happily read for one hour then even more happily played Crazy Manor Match for twenty minutes, PIG mum happily yapped @ Jacinta. XD
  • At 5:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles before signing Jacinta off with my thanks and byes. Unsure when she's next back but hopefully before she moves interstate @ the end of the year!
  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 28TH time. All the things I like recording are in today's second post.
  • When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:19pm, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and 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 dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon,  lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup carrot and two/three tiny cubes of tasteless soup beef.
  • 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.
  • Righteo, hopefully brb after one more tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wish everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 609c

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3230. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • When Jacinta announced her arrival one minute late, thanks to PIG mum who let her in, thus saving me from a potentially dangerous trip to the front door myself.
  • I've not seen Jacinta since last year; gosh her hair's gone all fluffy! But her biggest news: @ the end of 2026, her and her partner are moving interstate! She's only twenty-four~
  • So a nice warm shower for me - 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. ^^

Monday Post 609b

 Heylo again, good afternoon and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2855 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Are You Glad You Are Not God?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Accepting And Appreciating Your Physical Appearance' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'How The Proud Fall' but fifthly  and way most importantly, I'm really  still owed THIRTEEN MINUTES online after Jacinta minds me for two hours and I  watch the 6pm news  bulletin (Nine's) for the  28TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, what better way than to start the week then with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't  call until 6:45am 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*

  •  Pearl, Cherry and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately pulling on the tee immediately then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

  • 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.

  • Breakfast is one/two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full cup 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 walk 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 climb into the backseat of the old car (still haven't sat in the new car yet!) and buckle my own seatbelt (what I did all day). PIG mum tootles me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage and cool, I get to listen to 97.3FM all day!

  • At Ray's, I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some acupuncture and massage. PIG mum's in her element, yapping unceasingly @ Ray; my thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. PIG mum was excited like usual; today she repeated one syllable four times and another six before moving on. XD For, me, like usual, my favourite's the shoulder CPR~

  • After one more loo trip, PIG mum tootles us back to buy groceries @ the Warrigal Square Woolies. Frustration's that she 'forgot' to bring my parking permit, even though I'm CERTAIN that I reminded her about it this morning! >< Well, she 'claims' I didn't? Instead, she parked @ the VERY END of the parking strip then we went into Woolies and bought milk, soup pork and one more item I've since forgotten.

  • Back home, dad had oven-baked pizza for our lunch and I enjoyed 2.5 very thin slices! Hardly filling, but hey; I enjoyed a proper meal out with all my ESS peers yesterday~

  • After lunch I happily played my newest version of Bejeweled for thirty minutes, even though I had TWO HOURS of free lives!

  • @ 1:45pm, I used the loo for one more tinkle, plopped online and did the daily Bible readings before going online for myself.

  • Jacinta's minding me from 4-6 today; think it's the first time this year she's looked after me!

  • Hoping to read Leanne's book for one hour and watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 28TH time!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^
