Monday Post 328d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 2724. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post I finished reading and sharing my Facebook memories then started my GCCW homework even though we're not meeting this week since Mary's already submitted her homework! XD
  • 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: Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 4. We're grocery shopping from Pinelands Coles, getting my once-weekly crunchy pork Bahn mi for lunch from the Pinelands Bakehouse before coming home for an early lunch (I look forward to my once-weekly lazy eating.) XD
  • Heading out to the NAB for physio  with Jarrod  from  1-3pm. Apparently Mrs. Hoppie's there; fingers crossed she'll lemme hike The Great Court and shot a drink;  it's been just over three years since she last did!
  • Won't have time to read toms arvo since I've gotta read the day's Bible passages plus enjoy my most important two hours of the day online before Lorraine takes me to Toastmasters toms @ 5:30pm! Aaron and Aarunan have already sent their apologies; it's  gonna be  another small meeting! XD
  • Have just reminded dearest  dad I'm needing  rice for arvo tea since dinner's just  an  UnHappy Meal ...
  • Righteo,  hope everyone has a smashing  day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • When dearest dad summoned me for dinner @ 7:07pm, I used the loo for one tinkle 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.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup pumpkin, lotsa soup sweet potato, 1.5 yummy Chinese mushroom, one yummy chunk of snow fungus, one slice of chicken and one drumstick with most of the meat already removed.
  • Dinner was spooned down with just over half a  bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink 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.
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last  tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Tuesday ahead!

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of the day, I used the loo for one tinkle then headed down to the gobbling :P table and asked dad please for some arvo tea.
  • Dad actually PEELED a banana for me (PIG mum would NEVER do that!  XD), passed me one tasty cracker and brewed some beautiful Chinese bol lei tea but for  some reason, poured me LESS THAN ONE CUP; apparently, Cantonese cups aren't meant to be filled full before it's called one cup?

Monday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2355  steps (so will hopefully have reached 2.5  grand before the night's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Can Do Nothing'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Making Peace With Your Past' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'What God Has Done'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:10am, 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 again around 9am for another pot :P trip. Shortly afterwards, dearest dad's let himself into my room  and kissed me good morning, given me some eye goo and said fifteen more minutes; get up once Juliette arrives @ 9:30am.
  • Sure, I immediately get up once Juliette arrives but use the pot :P once more for @ least three tinkles before we get me kitted, hence why I exit the bedroom just after 9:45am, as it should be. I brush teeth, use the loo for one tinkle and then head out to  the gobbling :P table with Juliette.
  • For breakfast I only  get one bowl   of  yummy flaky Special K; I'd better get one slice of toast toms too! I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drank like two mouthfuls 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, Juliette smothers me with sunscreen then walks behind 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 Juliette's car and she tootles me off to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. Arriving massively early (Ray's not even opened the gates yet), we both just play with our phones until Ray opens them.
  • Inside, I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some acupuncture and massage. Juliette sits on the side and we all chat; that felt really refreshing since usually only PIG mum yaps, Ray goes uh huh and I just lie there silent and snoozing! XD 
  • After one more tinkle Juliet tootles us off to Arndale  Shopping Centre for grocery shopping @ Coles and grabs a trolley for us. We're both unfamiliar with the store and traversed it up and down looking for the groceries dad wanted; I managed to sing 55% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud since Juliet walks slowly, just like me! XD
  • Back home I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks  to Juliet who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Only thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
  • Dried, creamed and rekittted, lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers and 1.5 delicious little delicious mugs of Chinese tea.
  • Signed Juliet off with my thanks and byes @ 1pm; hope she's back soon! She's like forty-seven, already a grandma and from Tonga/NZ.
  • Won't have time to read for one hour this arvo since I'm planning to read the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) 197TH time!
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me from like 9:30pm till 4:30pm. Presuming we're buying  groceries from Coles Pinelands plus my once-weekly  crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse.  Coming home for lunch then have NAB physio 1-3pm; Peggy leaves @ like 4:30pm after seeing me home and showered and will remember to  remind dad I'm needing RICE for arvo tea  since I'll only get an UnHappy Meal for dinner to\s night. *sigh*
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl,  else wishing  everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2969 steps (so promise I'll  have cracked three grand before Sunday's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Best Passage Ever'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Get God Involved In Your Finances'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Jesus Looks For The Lost' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Servant Girl Of  Naaman' but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed  THIRTY-EIGHTTTT MINUTESonline after getting home from dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am,  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*
  • Nature calls again about one hour later, shortly after which dearest dad lets himself into my room, kisses me awake, gives me some eye goo then returns outside and awaits Juliet's arrival @ 7:30am.
  • After dad gives me fifteen more minutes,  Juliet enters my room and taps me  up. I  use the pot :P for one more tinkle,  we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Juliet. 
  • Breakfast is one yummy bowl of Special K cereal, 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?

  • When dad summoned me to dinner @ 9:23pm I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely over to  the  gobbling :P  table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa not-very-yummy pawpaw, lotsa soup  carrot, lotsa sweet potato, one clump of snow fungus and one yummy chicken drumstick already mostly demeatted. (Not a word butt I'm sure you'll guess the meaning, yeah? XD)

  • Tried ringing Aunty Lai thrice @ 9pm but she didn't pick up? Instead, I walked myself slowly and safely once more 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.

  • I'd just returned online when PIG mum video called me; she was out having dinner with Aunty Lai and others! She gave Aunty Lai the phone so we could chat~

  • Toms: Jane's with me 7-9am, helping me up then taking me to church.

  • But hoping to read the book club novel for one hour and watch the 6pm news for the 196TH time!
