Sunday Post 330c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 3787. Anyways, final, final events for  tonight?

  • After I flipped the nice hot water  off and PIG mum dried my back for me, I did everything else and she didn't feature again until my bra strap  needed doing up, 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.
  • Did my weekly file backup  then happily watched the 6pm  news for  the 164TH time. All the things I like recording  are @ the bottom  of today's first post.
  • Used the loo for one tinkle  then had our once-weekly family dinner  out @ Ho Lin Wah. Ate almost (but not  quite) one bowl of rice, a small half  bowl of thin   soupy ho  fan, a big half bowl of  fried Hokkien noodles while drinking one cup of  Chinese tea, half a cup of unsweewtened soya bean milk  and just over one mouthful of  the hot  HK-style milk tea.
  • Back home 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.
  • 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 morning appointment  to se3 Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply DYING to yap unceasingly   @ him.
  • Over breakfast toms morning I'll check    my email and see has Michelle filled in the TBA for tomorrow's 2-6pm shift; if she hasn't, I'll haveta ring.
  • Got    Breathe physio @ 2:30pm toms. Presuming we'll buy groceries afterwards before coming home for personal care.
  • Fingers crossed I can read the Isobelle Carmody  book for one hour and watch  the 6pm news bulletin for the 165TH time toms night!
  • Anyways, wishing everyone a smashing week  ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new  plodding  total  for Sunday now stands @ 3565 (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD) and secondly,  Joni's devotional topic's 'The Royal Official'.  Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Once the most important two hours of the day were  up, I used the  loo  for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then sat @ the gobbling :P peeled a banana for arvo tea, munched one plain  cracker, drank one huge mug of arvo  tea then finished sharing my Facebook memories then reading the Isobelle Carmody book for forty-seven minutes before  PIG mum ordered me off to  shower.
  • So a nice hot shower for me  - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I  also  softly, slowly  but most hatefully sang 20% of  shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was already done after only 9%, but happily leaned fully   against the right side rail and watered myself  for  another tinkle before calling PIG mum  back.
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 330

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3571 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "God's Grace In Spiritual Gifts'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be Steadfast' and fourthly, Our Daily  Bread's devotional topic's  'The God Who Saves'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Actually, initially sleep wouldn't come and I   already used the pot :P once @ 11:35pm before I finally fell asleep but then I snored soundly until  PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs woke me! Only I  was still too asleep to fully wake and use the pot :P I   stayed barely awake until PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo @ 7am before using the pot :P for one tinkle.
  • After PIG mum hits me with the eye goo, helps me exceedingly slightly with the bra strap and  laying out both  my   tee and jumper she leaves me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I  comply with  after immediately struggling into the tops 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  sat 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 was one of the delicious sausage buns that I made with PIG mum yesterday! I  also popped all my usual drugs :P  and drank 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*
  • 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.

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 washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat 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 haul. I hike up  the ramp, use the disabled  loo for one tinkle myself (yay that the lid's up and seat's down  today), wash and dry Era then grab my usual spot for service on the most left. PIG mum leaves for the Canto service with fourteen minutes to spare.
  • Yay I get to stay seated for  worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Peter Pie with another sermon from his series How People Change. David interviewed Rosanna afterwards; eep, she shared how once she rang the police after her  dad pulled a knife on her mum! o_O That's prolly  why service ended six minutes early  today~
  • After service, the disabled loo lid  was down and horrid PIG mum  wouldn't lift it for me, meaning I queued in the normal female bathroom until my  turn arrived.  Wonder why PIG mum lifted the lid for me for that one?
  • After washing and drying Era I hiked round the back and sat to munch my packet of Arnott's bikkies plus one little mug of milk tea without sugar. Uncle Simon came over and told me he didn't know who won the England and France World Cup grand final qualifier since he had to leave for church!
  • Today, the rest of ESS enjoyed Vietnamese food for lunch while PIG mum enjoyed her weekly gossip and coffee session with her aunty friends and dragged me back to Hungry Jack's for lunch with him. I  had the smallest chicken burger (chicken royale) twelve chips and half the orange juice.
  • Dad tootled us home, I used the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era  then walked myself slowly  and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Read the  day's Bible passages, used the loo for one more tinkle 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.
  • PIG mum's already left me some arvo tea and gone upstairs to hit the sack. Once I've used up the two most important hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle,  sit @ the gobbling :P  and finish sharing my Facebook memories before munching arvo tea and reading  for one hour.
  • Toms: presuming PIG mum'll help me up and take me to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture before coming home for lunch  with dearest dad.
  • Presume it's Jacinta taking me to Breathe physio toms arvo; also presume we're buying groceries before coming home for personal care.
  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news for the 165TH time, provided I can  watch it for the 164TH time tonight!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

  • At 6pm,  I used the loo for one tinkle then sat  @ the loo to read match report after match report and bask in  the Broncos' glory. XD
  • When    dad got home @ 6:40pm I thought   yay we'll have dinner before 7pm and my decision to skip watching the news but  then he took  ages reheating dinner meaning  we didn't eat dinner till after 7pm anyway! >< *sigh*
  • Whoops outta time so super-briefly:

  • Anyways, looking  forward to seeing   everyone @   church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 331b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for  Saturday now stands @ 4009 (usually I'd say ha, I'm just over four grand but it doesn't feel like I've plodded four thousand steps today?) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Honest Questions'. Righteo, continuing events for today?

  • After washing and drying   Era,  I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane for my once-weekly   breakfast of a fried egg on one slice of toast very lightly smeared with avocado. I also drink another  tall full cup of  water, pop all my usual drugs :P and enjoy my first big mug of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.
  • Over and after breakfast I happily read for thirty minutes, reaching pg. 125 @ 10:11am.
  • While I used the loo for one more tinkle, Jane shut and locked the windows.
  • After climbing into Sally (Sarah's successor XD) Jane tootled us off to Underwood MarketPlace, parked underground and grabbed a trolley for us.
  • Our first stop was Woolies to grab a jug of milk. Tried asking the shop   attendant minding the self-serve checkout would she please round up to $30 and slip  me  one of those packs are currently offering but she replied sorry, no, it's against  the rules.  Hey, @ least I tried! XD
  • After buying groceries we headed over to Sushi Creators and I leant my right hip against the counter while Jane paid for my sushi. The guy  who recognises me saw me coming; when I raised my pointer finger signalling 'one' @ him he just nodded and immediately got a honey chicken sushi for me, so when  Jane reached the front counter too he just told her "Four dollars." Jane turned to me, asking "Aren't you going to order?" I raised my  pointer again and smirked. "I already did! He saw us coming; I  held up one finger and he nodded!" XD
  • Back home I take a nice  hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me  rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was leftover omelette with leftover fried rice;  thanks to Jane who poured me two  more big mugs of white sweetened with one spoonful of honey. Over and after lunch I read for another twenty-five minutes, reaching page 150 @ 1:22pm.
  • At 1:40pm I sit  over the loo  for  two more tinkles before Jane tootles me off to church to play  table tennis with my   dearest dad. At church I use the loo for one more tinkle but when  approaching the building was instructed to sit outside since the  floor  was met from just being mopped! I  sat  down, signing Jane off with my thanks and byes two minutes early. She's back Wednesday  and taking me to  table tennis and after WEEKS there's gonna be CAKE for Justin's 47th/48th  birthday! :D
  • Yay dad lets me win again  today. XD Only I copped  EIGHT body shots from him and he nearly took my right ear off! >< I told him lucky that you  don't actually need your ears to hear. XD
  • Back home I used the loo  for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P  table to munch arvo tea (my yummy honey   chicken sushi  roll plus one huge mug of  fruit  tea) and read for another two hours and fifty-five minutes, since it's only Saturdays that I   can spend a blessed three  hours reading~ Today I finished  pg.  175 @ 2:56pm, finished arvo tea exactly  four minutes later (3pm), took a loo break @ 3:17pm, forgot about pg. 200 but reached pg.  222 @ 4:13pm and finished pg. 225 @ 4:17pm.
  • Used  the loo for one tinkle then read my daily Bible passages before plopping online for myself.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 331

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard  @ work plodding 3734 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Power To Profess Christ';  thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Will Conquer Your   Jericho (2)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Road Closed -  Spirit-Led' but  fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still  owed ONE HOUR and FOURTEEN MINUTES online after dinner tonight!! Heading over to the gobbling :P @ 6pm and not watching the news since dearest dad'll get home before 7pm. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd 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*
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me using  the pot :P once more when woken by PIG mum's noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let  herself into 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 Elf  for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock  to  sleep, but obviously tugged it off first thing this morning! XD Once PIG mum  leaves to  await Jane's arrival, 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 PIG mum opens the door for Jane @ 9:30am, Jane knocks, opens the door and says "Good morning Em; fifteen more minutes, okay?" Daddy  Bear gives one single paw flop and just like that, she's already closed the door and left, thus denying her the chance to imperiously wave his paw 'shoo!' @ her.  XD
  • 900 seconds later, I loudly announce "Jane,   I'm hungry," and transfer myself over to  the pot :P   for  one more tinkle. She comes, 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! 
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 331c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding  total for Friday now stands @ 6306. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post I continued  reading and sharing my Facebook memories.
  • 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: Jane's minding me 9:30am till 1pm. Presuming we're buying my arvo  tea sushi roll plus whatever  groceries PIG mum wants from  Woolies before coming home for a shower and lunch. Yay that Jane should gimme three big mugs of white tea with sweetener~
  • She'll also drop me off to church to play table tennis with dearest dad; I'm already looking forward to getting home and spending all arvo  reading since usually it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book!
  • Maybe I'll even get  to watch  the news  for  the 164TH time!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing  weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^
