Tuesday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, I'm unsure how many steps I've been hard @ work plodding since idiot Wally's only given me 347 steps but I've done heaps more since Peggy took me to watch a movie today before we went to buy a bahn mi from Aunty Nancy @ the Pinelands Bakery; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Children Of A Singing  God (seems familiar?); thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Overcoming Envy' and fourthly, Our Daily  Bread's devotional topic's "In God's Line Of Sight". Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 8am, 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, even earlier this morning, the termite guys arrived to deal with the termites! I woke when they rang the doorbell but since my bedroom door was closed and they didn't bother disturbing me, I just checked that my bladder was fine for more sleeping then returned to happy snorings with Daddy Bear.
  • Nature called once more 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 before going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After PIG mum lets Peggy in, Peggy knocks, pushes the door and announces good morning. When Daddy bear acknowledges her with a paw flop, she next states fifteen more minutes. Daddy Bear gives another paw nod before flicking his paw imperiously @ her shoo!  Peggy smirks with amusement but wisely closes the door and leaves us be, saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum.  XD
  • Once I'm counted down 900 seconds, I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce "Peggy, I'm hungry." She's just next door, inside the bathroom and enters immediately, saying good morning again.
  • We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth (thanks to Peggy who's already squirted me some toothpaste) and sit over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I 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 get like one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P and Milo cereal, 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*
  • After Peggy covers my face and both hands with sunscreen and accompanies 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 pronounced Alto and Peggy tootles me off to Sunnybank Plaza to watch the Super Mario movie!
  • Peggy parks underground and after catching the escalator up, we hike up the ramp to buy our tickets. I'm disappointed that Peggy refuses to buy popcorn after claiming the free ticket but after using the loo once and finding our spots (the only time I allow myself to lean fully to the right before sitting's when I'm @ the cinemas) Peggy offers wafers and obviously I reply yes please! While she's away buying I quickly post on Facebook before happily watching all the previews; OMG, there's gonna be this MINIONS and Monsters Inc crossover!!! 
  • Adorable movie!!! <3 I particularly loved the little multi-coloured fireballs; anyone know what they're called?
  • Whoops outta time, so super-briefly:
  • Got home, showered and had lunch.  
  • Signed Peggy off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back same time next week.
  • Used loo for one tinkle, did my daily Bible readings then plopped online.
  • Jacinta's taking me to Toastmasters tonight! Hence must remind PIG mum I'm needing some rice for arvo tea since I'm only getting an UnHappy Meal with an orange juice tonight.
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up  not too late and takes me walkies somewhere before we come home for lunch with dearest dad.
  • Juane's ttaking  me to play  table tennis @ like  2/2:30pm; let  there be  cake! XD
  • Can hopefully  watch the 6pm  news for the 78TH time and will remind PIG mum to please gimme dinner after Jane leaves @ 6:30pm since Angie's picking me up for GG @ 7:10pm!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing  day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

  • After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I 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's one/two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix mixed with a tiny bit of Minus :P and Milo cereal, 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*
  • 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 Chery and dearest dad drops PIG mum and I off @ Ray's place! Yay that dad parks right outside the gate~
  • At Ray's I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element yapping unceasingly @ Ray; my grateful thanks to Ray for always keeping a conversation flowing. Actually, PIG mum deserves commendation too: today she only repeated one syllable five times! XD
  • After one more loo trip, dad tootled us home and I started reading my daily Bible passages before being summoned to lunch, which was a ham and egg toastie with lotsa lettuce. Pity PIG mum wouldn't add a slice of cheese for me, but the Chinese tea I washed lunch down with was delicious.
  • Whoops just over fifteen minutes left, so super-briefly:
  • Jacinta took me to Breathe for physio: 1.686km bike ride, forty bar-assisted push-ups, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift. Forty steps for Elf, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg curls for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!

Monday Post 327

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 832 steps (but promise I'll have cracked 1000 before Monday ends since I'm enduring physio next and going grocery shopping   afterwards); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'You Were Made For God'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Learn To Listen To God and fourthly,  Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Yielded And Still' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm   really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-ONE MINUTES online after Jacinta takes me to  Breathe for  physio   and  I  watch the 6pm  news (Nine's)  for  the 77TH  time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Nature  called once around 12:45am; following the first  sunlight 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 until nearly 9am before waking for another pot :P trip. Shortly after 9am, PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself to 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 her for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep but obviously tugged the sock off first thing this morning! XD
  • PIG mum helped exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and lying out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee and giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • I call PIG mum please to come back and finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces since it's already 9:45am and I don't wanna be back in bed already for another night's sleep before twelve hours have passed else I'll feel I've have wasted the whole day! Still, she takes her time about it; it's like 9:50am by the time I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. *sigh*
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^

Sunday Post 327c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2076. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • PIG mum eventually tumbled down from pigland and handed me one yummy banana, one very yummy flavoured cracker and one huge mug of delicious Chinese tea.
  • Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Took    a nice hot shower - I   washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud. Actually, I was all done after only 10% but happily leaned fully against the right side-rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
  • Watched the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 76TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of today's first post.
  • Had our once-weekly family dinner out together @ Ho Lin Wah.
  • Got home, returned online and used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
  • Toms: seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage before coming home for lunch with dearest dad.
  • Jacinta's minding me from   2-6pm and taking me to Breathe for physio.
  • Then we'll prolly buy groceries from Woolies Warrigal Square before coming home for a shower. Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme buy a bubble tea from Tea Station for  arvo  tea!
  • Hoping to read for another hour and watch pm news bulletin for the 77TH time!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
