Tuesday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1816 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Marvelling @ The End Of History'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Recall Your  Past Victories' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'A Disciplined Life' butt fifthly and way most importantly I'm really still owed FIFTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after getting home tonight from Toastmasters!! *sigh* Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep  last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am 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*

• Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, just  before noisy PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around. Soon,  she's let herself into my room to  hit me with the eye goo and stick a dressing over Elf  before returning outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
• After Peggy announces her arrival  @ 9:30am,  PIG mum lets her in. Peggy knocks the door, pushes it open  and announces, "Good  morning." When Daddy Bear flops a paw @ her in response she next states, "Fifteen more minutes."   Daddy Bear gives a single paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw @  her "Shoo!" Peggy smirks but wisely does as commanded, thus saving her from the  wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• After counting down 900 seconds I swing  myself over to the pot :P  for  one more tinkle and announce "Peggy, I'm hungry." She comes, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kittled 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 Peggy, who  says that she  enjoyed two fried eggs for breakfast this morning.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1287 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Honour What We Enjoy'; thirdly, TTWFT topic's 'Healing For Shame And Condemnation' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Time And Struggles'. Anyways, events for today?

• Aww, I was hoping to score my 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night but nature called around 12:30am and spoiled it! Following the first daylight 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, me waking again 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 before returning outside and awaiting Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
• After PIG mum lets Jane in, she knocks, pushes open the bedroom door and  calls "Good morning Em; fifteen more minutes." I just raise Daddy  Bear @ her and she's already gone, thus denying him the chance to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo!' @ her.  XD
• After counting down from 900 seconds I swing myself over to  the pot :P once more and announce "Jane, I'm hungry." She comes, er 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.
• Breakfast's one delicious bowl of flaky Special K with all my usual  drugs :P and one tall 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*
• Breakfast finished,  Jane applies some sunscreen for me then walks behind  me back to the bathroom before returning to  the kitchen and washing tthe breakfast stuff up. Over the loo proper, 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 Sally and Jane tootles me off to Calamvale Central to get my cheap  haircut from Go Cutt. I teach her the best  place for parking then we catch the elevator up. Thanks to Jane who helps me buckle my seatbelt both ways~
• After a short wait, my number's called (the machine dings) and I head over to the chair.
• Today my hairdresser's Duk M Duk!! We manage a little stilted Chinese conversation.  XD I like getting haircuts there; it's  the only  time I'm instructed to 'look down' since mother's forever harping "head up" @ me!! XD
• Haircut done, Jane tootles me home and I take a nice warm 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.
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just brief:
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one huge mug of white tea. Sadly unsweetened but hey,  still beats herbal tea any day! XD
• Jane gives Ela a very brief and light massage for about ten minutes, then @ 1:55pm I sit over the loo fore two tinkles before signing her off with my thanks and byes. She's back Wednesday 1:30pm for table tennis~
• Lunch over, I take the cup over to the sink, use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then plop online for myself after reading the day's Bible passages. Started Ecclesiastes today~
• Toms: Peggy's minding me 9:30am  till  2pm (not 4pm anymore since NAB  physio's done for the year) then toms night Lorraine's taking me to Toastmasters!
• Anyways, hopefully  bbl, else wishing  everyone a smashing day  toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 324c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 3080. See, told you I'd just crack three grand! XD  Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• Took a nice warm shower - I washed and rinsed my hair today. Holiday's over; I also used Puffball to wash my back and Era; for the first time since PIG mum went holidaying I softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 11% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud.
• I had one tinkle before I tapped the nice warm water off and called PIG mum back; after she dried the back of the chair for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra strap needed doing, Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
• After drying the loo seat I  sat for one tinkle,  dried inside both ears, stamped both feet dry, 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.

• All the interesting surnames  I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s,  read by Mia Glover) for the 215^TH time: Jiselle (first name), Manning, Geran, Bavas, Luca (first   name), Nava, Ioyannidis, Usman (first name), Khawaja, Bancroft (heard), Carey, Stokes, Warner (heard), Croucher, Maguire, Calum (first name), Harvey-Scoles, Tehan, Geran, Palaszczuk, Miles, Crisafulli, Nicholls, Eisenkot, Netttanyahu, White, Trump (heard), Macfarlane, Luxon, Hipkins, Patterson, Albanese (heard), Dalton, Kenzie, Keshan (first name), Bavas, Lipshutz, Stone, Zalk, Spark, Sigrid (first name), Thorton, Troy (first  name), Sussman – actually, no, only 214.75^TH time since dad demands we’re going @ 7pm! XD Perhaps I’ll just watch the last quarter toms and return that number to 215^TH time! XD

• Had our usual once-weekly dinner together out @ Ho Lin Wah but sat @ the very back where the  larger booths are coz tonight wasn't just us three but Aunty A and Aunty Sally too!

• Returned home and 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.

• 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: unsure why I keep thinking  dad's specialist appointment's Monday not Thursday?

• Unsure who's minding me 9:30am till 2:30pm but PIG mum says I'm due for a haircut! Must  remember to  ask Bing: why does hair grow quicker during  Summer? Summer I'm needing  haircuts once every month but during Winter that lengthens to six weeks?

• Hopefully we can come back to Warrigal Square Woolies to buy groceries; I'd rather not walk the entire length of the shopping centre from GoCutt to Woolies and back to the car park with a sore ankle; I'm just worried that I'm currently unable to walk without pain even though  every morning  and night I'm stretching Elf's ankle! >< *sigh*

• Looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day then plan to watch the replay of the Kangaroos'  match tonight before watching the last fifteen minutes of the 6pm news bulletin and take my viewing  to the 215TH time! XD

• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing week   ahead!

Sunday Post 324b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2997 (so  will  definitely crack three grand before tonight ends XD)  and  secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Song Before The Answer'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

• Once  I used up the most important two hours of the day I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to eat the arvo  tea PIG mum had kindly  left me  before hitting the sack: one banana (to peel myself, one mug of delicious tea and one yummy 'lol' por (say that in Canto) biscuit ('twas really a pastry) that Aunty Sally  had brought over from HK! Happily read for one hour butt super-disgusted that I STILL haven't finished the book; how slowly I read post brain injury; it's honestly shameful'. ><  *sigh* Today I finished pg. 525 @ 4:49pm, finished arvo tea @ 4:57pm and reached pg. 550 @ 5:16pm.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
