• Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:15am~
• Only Olivia didn't come @ 9:30am! PIG mum rang CODA on-call and helped me up.
• Brushed teeth, did a stinky unspeakable, ate my once-weekly fried egg and drank my first big mug of white tea with two sugars.
• Started reading the new book club novel! Reached page twenty-five @ 10:28; it's really good!
• Went out with PIG mum to Underwood Marketplace to buy groceries from Woolies and get my honey chicken sushi roll.
• Came home for lunch  with dearest dad and enjoyed my second  big mug of white tea.
• Played table tennis @ church with dearest dad. Saw Aunty Carly and played with Uncle Simon; he's so hark hei!
• Came home and enjoyed my arvo tea honey chicken sushi roll. Underwood MarketPlace does them good; they're crunchy! Happily continued reading until Catherine came and minded me from 4-6pm. Reached page fifty @ 12:12pm. Forgot what time I reached page seventy-five and one hundred but I reached pg. 111 @ 3:59pm.
• Took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Catherine who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, second arvo tea was one gloopy mouthful of delicious passionfruit and one huge mug of green tea. Happily read till 5:50pm; it's only Saturdays that I get to spend a blessed three hours reading! I finished pg. 125 @ exactly 4:45pm and reached pg. 150 @ exactly 5:20pm.
• Ised the loo for two more tinkles @ 5:55pm and then said my thanks and byes to Catherine.

• PIG mum got dearest dad to start dinner with her but without me @ 5:55pm. Once the news ended, I used the loo for one tinkle and 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 tonight, with leftover Hokkien noodles that I'd cooked with Dorrie yesterday! Also two lil pieces of leftover chicken, lotsa broccoli, lotsa carrot and two tasty slices of onion.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely 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 loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final  plodding total for today, the final, final evbents for tonight plus what's happening  Sunday else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
