Sunday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1446 steps (so promise I'll have cracked 1500 steps before Sunday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Live By Faith'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Life-Giving Word' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Remembering   Who  We Are'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:45am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep, since I knew that PIG mum would get very noisy soon!
  • Instead, I fell back that deeply asleep I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo! She helped me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and then spread out the tee for me before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee first and 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 bowl of plain porridge, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Sheesh, we're one full week into Winter but horrid PIG mum still won't gimme a piece of dry toast for breakfast! *sigh* But thanks to  dearest dad who passed me a corner of his bun; it contained avocado and peanut butter but dad was super-careful and said check before you eat it, since he remembers my nut allergy~ 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 back seat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks outside the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the last cubicle of the normal female toilets (since the disabled and all cubicles have lids closed), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot on the most left.

  • Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

  • Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie, with another sermon from his Apostles' Creed series. This I Believe.

  • Service ended thirteen minutes early today; after another toilet trip, I hiked around to the back and sat down for morning tea. thanks to dearest dad who already had one packet of Arnott's bikkies and one paper cup of sugarless milk tea waiting for me.

  • While everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ some hotpot place and PIG mum went and enjoyed her weekly coffee and gossip session with the other church aunties, dad made me eat @ Hungry Jack's again.  *sigh* Yesterday already marked one whole FORTNIGHT since I last enjoyed a proper meal out. *sigh*

  • Today I had exactly ten chips dipped into some tomato sauce, the smallest chicken burger, like 1/3 an orange juice and several gulps of the disgusting free coffee from Hungry Jacks. Luckily dad lemme take two chomps of his fried chicken burger in exchange for the packet of biscuits that granny Wan gave me, but PIG mum took away and gave to dad!

  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, 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 prolly got a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD

  • Unsure are we grocery shopping together before going home for lunch with dearest dad.

  • Jacinta's minding me from 2-6pm and taking me to Breathe for physio.

  • Presume we're grocery shopping afterwards before she sees me home and showered.

  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 113TH time, provided I can watch it for the 112TH time tonight!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl,  else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 329c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2044. Ha, I'm just over two grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • When nature called @ 8:40pm, 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.
  • At 9pm I rang Aunty Lai and we chatted for 8:05. She had Hainan chicken rice for dinner and hasn't been in contact with Aunty Nga this week.
  • After the phone call ended, I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one last 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: just church, definitely nothing special.
  • Resigned to a little lunch with dad @ Hungry Jack's and a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh* It's already been one whole FORTNIGHT since my last proper meal out; will I really  haveta wait until the last day of June before enjoying another real meal out??
  • Anyways, looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 329b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 1929 (so may not have reached 2000 before tonight ends, sorry XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Want Versus Need'. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Over and after lunch, I happily read for another thirty minutes, reaching pg. 225 @ 11:56am.
  • Used loo for two more tinkles @ 12:40pm but since 'twas still early when Jane got me to church to play table tennis with dearest dad, I used the loo for one more 6inkle @ church before signing her off with my thanks and byes. She's back Wednesday and taking me to table tennis, which reminds me: isn't the competition like next Saturday??
  • Dad was a good boy and lemme win in three sets, but I came home with eight holes! o_O XD
  • Oops just briefly; only thirty minutes left:
  • Got home and read most of the arvo; it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading and I'm reading a very good historical fiction about WW1 now!
  • Watched the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 111TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  • Had dinner with PIG mum (rice, lotsa yummy cabbage and some leftover tomato pork mince with onion), returned online and sang the happy birthday song to 4th Aunty: it's her birthday today!
  • Listening to the Broncos playing the Titans right now. Since dad got Stan, I'd hoped I could watch the NRL, but it's not included! ><" 
  • Ringing Aunty Lai @ 9pm; fingers crossed I can bbl after one more tinkle following our phone call wit my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday, else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  @^


Saturday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1834 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic's from last night's 'Dependable In The Mundane'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Developing A Spiritual Mindset' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Provision" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 111TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call  until 6:35am, 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* Actually, I'd already been awake, but not awake enough to know that I'm awake? 'Twas PIG mum noisily going THUMP THUMP THUMP upstairs that fully woke me!
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, nature calling again around 8:45am. 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 happily cuddling and snoring from Daddy Bear and me, nature calling once more shortly around 9am just before PIG mum comes too hit me with the eye goo and gimme fifteen more minutes, since I'm getting up once Jane arrives @ 9:30am.
  • Once Jane arrives and taps me, I sit up, use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then 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 Jane, who tells me she had her usual breakfast smoothie for her morning meal today.
  • Me, I get my once-weekly fried egg on one slice if toast very lightly spread with avocado but unfortunately without a slice of cheese, since PIG mum was mean and prevented Jane from adding a slice for me. *sigh* I also drink another full cup of water, popped all my usual drugs :P and drank my first mug of white tea with two teaspoonfuls of sugar but was grumpy since Jane couldn't find my big cup. :o(Over breakfast, I happily read for thirty minutes
  • After asking Jane please to gimme (face and both hands) some sunscreen I use the loo for one more tinkle while she shuts and locks windows.  After climbing into the passenger seat of Sarah (the car's license plate reads SAZ), Jane tootles us off to Underwood MarketPlace, parks underground and grabs a trolley for us. Also thanks to Jane who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  •  Have forgotten what groceries PIG mum wanted but I enjoy shopping with the carers more than the parents since they lemme sit on the self-serve checkout machine. Well, the side where you place the scanned items~
  • The other stop was Sushi Creators where I leant against the counter and Jane ordered one honey chicken sushi roll for me.
  • Back home I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was two mall mugs of white tea sweetened with two  spoonfuls of sugar and a toasted tuna in tomato and onioon toastie with TWO cheese cut into four squares. 

  • Cheers,
    Em.  ^^
