Thursday Post 617d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3225. See? Told you I'd crack three grand! XD  Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • When nature called suddenly @ 8:20pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Unsure why the side of Elf's heel (not the malleolus) started hurting? Told PIG mum and she came and took a photo; presuming she'll book me into see Peter when she's free? I've already let him know over Messenger~
  • At 9pm, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Toms: it's my BIRTHDAY!! Jane's helping me up @ 8am and taking me to a two-hour session @ the NAB with Nathan.
  • Afterwards PIG mum says we can go to Sunnybank Plaza and get my free Boost Juice; I'm just trying to figure out how to get a free bubble tea, too! XD
  • Jane will see me home and showered before leaving @ 2pm and then Ari's coming to give Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises; fingers crossed she remembers my bubble tea!
  • I'm turning thirty-nine @ 6:22pm and then we're meeting Aunty A for my birthday dinner before coming home for birthday cake!
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo   again and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2788. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • Once I'd used up my most important two hours of the day online, I used the loo for one tinkle then headed over to the gobbling :P table and asked PIG mum please for my muffin from Daph for arvo tea! I've never been really a fan of raspberry (kid's Panadol) but anything paired with chocolate can't be wrong! XD I enjoyed that with a delicious mug of Chinese tea~
  • Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was done after only 10% but happily leaned fully against the right side-rail and happily watered myself for another tinkle before tapping the nice warm water off and calling PIG mum back.
  • Since PIG mum won't even help me dry my back anymore, once she dried the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and PIG mum didn't feature again until Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
  • After I dried the loo seat, I sat for one tinkle, stamped both feet dry, dried inside both ears, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Gonna finish sharing my Facebook memories then start composing my birthday reflections post; it's due before my BIRTHDAY toms!
  • Hopefully bbl tonight, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 617

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2398 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily   devotional topic from last night's 'Why We Must Hold Fast Our Hope (seems familiar?); thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Abounding Grace'' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Waiting For God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night! The best way to begin the day before my official BIRTHDAY: the 5th time this year I've achieved one straight week of awesome sleeps! :D
  • Like the past two days, 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 once more for the pot :P 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 (well,  she also spreads the tee out, but that's it) before leaving me to get  myself mostly  independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • That done, I sit up, pound the wall and ask PIG mum to finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces since it's already 9:45am and I don't wanna already be back in bed for another night's rest before twelve hours have passed since it'll feel like I've wasted the whole day! Still, she takes her time about it, meaning I don't let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth till like 9:55am. *sigh*
  • Teeth brushed, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, ng 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 mug of water. PIG mum rings CODA and informs Michelle that I'm slightly sick, asking her please check is Louiza okay to mind me provided she wears a mask? Only Michelle rings back   saying Louiza's sick too! Support cancelled. >< 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 sit outside my room until PIG mum's moved the car back onto the driveway then climb into the backseat and buckle my seatbelt.  PIG mum tootles us down the road to the Warrigal Square Woolies.
  • Aww, we don't bump into Kat today; I wanted to tell her that 'twas my BIRTHDAY toms! PIG mum and I just buy me a can of Campbells Cream of Chicken soup and a pack/two of wet wipes.
  • Back home I use the loo for another tinkle, finish reading today's Bible passages then head over to the gobbling :P table for lunch; thanks to PIG mum who's actually given me TWO slices of dry (unbuttered) toast along with my bowl of Campbells soup and one huge mug of green tea!
  • After lunch I started trying to build one of those LEGO Bricks packets until dearest dad arrived home from somewhere and PIG mum headed out for her water aerobics class. I used the loo for one tinkle then plopped online.
  • Waiting for PIG mum to get back and then we'll each have one of those choc chip and raspberry muffins that Daph gifted me a pack of yesterday!
  • Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 52ND time!
  • Toms: it's my   BIRTHDAY!! :D Jane's minding me from 8-2; she'll help me up, then take me to the NAB for two hours before seeing me home and showered. Fingers crossed PIG mum'll let us get my free birthday Boost Juice!
  • PIG mum says Ari's coming to give Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises; hope she remembers to bring my birthday bubble tea! :D
  • Biggest excitement: birthday dinner with Aunty A!  Prolly @ Yum Cha And Co; hopefully afterwards she'll come home and eat cake with us!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 617

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4047 steps (sweet I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen very often!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Why We Must Hold Fast Our Hope'; thirdly, TWFT topic's Live From  'GloeTo Glory'"; fourthly, Our Daily   Bread's devotional topic's 'Made For  Community' and fifthly,   Joni's devotional  topic's 'The Bottom  Line Of Contentment' but  sixthly   and  way  most importantly, I'm  really still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-ONE MINUTES online should PIG mum order me off toi  bed @ 9:45pm!! >< *sigh* But just noting  down that I enjoyed my 6th  consecutive  saleep last night (bid Daddy     Bear sweet dreams, fell asleep   and didn't wake  till 6:30am), bought groceries with  PIG mum @ the Warrigal    Squyare Woolies and came home for  lunch. Mary took  me    to  play table tennis and after dinner @ home I went again to church and played table tennis with dad! Can't remember who's taking me   to Breathw for physio toms @ 2pm but @ least it's ice cream night toms night, yay! Hope everyone's having  a lovely week~

Cheers,
Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 616d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday now stands @ 4048. Ha, I'm just over four grand; that doesn't happen very often! XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccoli, lotsa soup tomato, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup tomato and two lil chunks of pork/chicken.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; afterwards I read for another thirty minutes since I like reading for @ least one hour everyday whenever possible.
  • Reading finished, I walk 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.
  • 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: PIG mum'll help me up, since I've got   a late/mid-morning appointment   to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Usually, I see him on Monday, but I couldn't yesterday since I was having the MRI!
  • Hoping PIG mum'll take me aisle walking and grocery shopping afterwards else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me, since I'll be using Sparkless3 for table tennis and I can't source a lift to GG; maybe dad will take me to church to play table tennis with him again?
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S.   Reminder to self: need to start composing Birthday Reflections post!

  • When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:29pm, I used the loo for one tinkle (thanks to PIG mum for a pad change), 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.
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^
