Thursday Post 607b

 Heylo again  and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3417 (so may not have reached 3500 before the  night's out XD)  and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Power Of God'. Righteo,  continuing Thursday's events?

  • Once I'd used up  my most important two hours of  the day, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P  table to munch arvo tea and start reading the new Matthew Reilly book Ken had gifted me this morning!
  • PIG mum gave me some fruit, one plain cracker and one huge mug of some herbal tea and I happily read for  one hour, reaching page twenty-five @ 5:15pm. Pity I've  got the new book  club novel to  start  reading toms; I would've loved to continue reading this one!
  • At 5:30pm, I went  and sat over  the loo for  two tinkles, wondering was the Betadine  carer mother mentioned was gonna come.
  • She arrived five/seven minutes late (traffic); turns out her  name's BeNadine! XD
  • Benadine moved her car back to the driveway, I  got in and PIG mum kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt.
  • When  she drove me to book club, I found out I'm five years older than her  but she's already married with  two primary school aged kids, lives in Browns Plains and her  husband's a carer like her! Only not with  CODA!
  • Upon arrival, grumpiness was finding the lift outta oorder. >< Why  can't they just build stairs going  straight up from the ground floor to the second floor! With stairs curved aroound, I had to haul myself up twenty-four steps! >< Luckily there were handrails both ways.
  • Eight ladies attended tonight but  the oddest thing  was the tea! 'Twas some kinda tumeric tea and tasted  odd with milk and two sugars!
  • The meeting  ended like thirteen minutes early but  Benadine  stayed with me inside the meeting room until 7:30pm, when I went out  and borrowed the new book club novel from a male librarian  from Cambodia!
  • Lol Benadine's missed the  turn into Gaskell Street since like PIG mum, she didn't listen  to her GPS! XD I put  away my mobile and took her back  home through Oakleaf Street~
  • Dinner back home: rice, lotsa yummy garlic stem/shoot,  one little yyummy cuttlefish ball  and some not-very-yummy fungus ... the stringy kind?
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of  soup; after  taking the soup over to  the sink  I walked myself slowly  and safely  back online, above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Righteo, hopefully  brb after one more loo  trip @ 9pm with my final, final  plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus  what's happening Friday else wishing  everyone a smashing end to their week  toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
