Sunday Post 324c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final  plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2942. Aww, not quite three grand. Maybe toms. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 9pm 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.
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's Chelsea's taking me out  for lunch @ Ho Lin Wah while PIG mum's having her weekly gossip and coffee session with  her church aunty friends and she'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 2pm.
  •  Hoping to read Mr. Einstein's secretary for another hour and watch the 6pm news for the 198TH time!

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2763 (so yay that I'm over 2.5 grand  but sorry that I'll not reach three grand before the night's out XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Without A Hint Of Complaint'. Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Precisely two hours after I got online I got off, used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked down the hallway to the gobbling :P table, calling out to PIG mum when I passed the staircase please to read me some arvo  tea.
  • Happily munched my honey chicken sushi roll, drank one huge mug of green tea and happily read all afternoon, since it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book~ 
  • I FINISHED the book @ exactly 4:50pm! Can't believe that took me five hours and fifty minutes to   read it ...  *sigh*
  • Then I  continued reading the book  Alison  had gifted me when she attended GCCW last meeting, Mr. Einstein's Secretary, reaching page fifty @ 4:56pm and reaching page seventy-five @ 5:34pm.
  • Used the loo for one more tinkle then watched the 6pm  news bulletin  (Nine's)  for the 197TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the  bottom of the previous post.
  • Watched River fire from the gobbling :P table: eighteen minutes of spectacular fireworks! Great soundtrack, too~ Even PIG mum approved of the music this year!
  • PIG mum kindly poured me another mug  of water, I  did another stinky unspeakable before washing and drying Era then joining her for dinner: the less-yummy rice tonight, lotsa tasteless soup/boiled vegies and a few tasteless slices of boiled soup meat.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup;  after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked  myself and safely back online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • When nature randomly  called @ 8:45pm, I walked myself slowly and safely once to the loo for one tinkle and back, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl after I ring Aunty Lai @ 9pm and use the loo for one more tinkle once the  call's finished with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening Sunday, else looking forward to  seeing everyone @ church  toms!
    Cheers,

Saturday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2299 steps;  secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "The Goal Of Christ's Love"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Pray For 'The  Wisdom From Above'" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "When God Opens Our Eyes". Anyways, events for today?

  • What better way to  begin the weekend than with my 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 8:00am 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*
  • The next time nature calls again, it's noisy PIG mum beginning her daily noisy  a-THUMPING around upstairs. After  another pot :P trip, 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*
  • PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief  rub, since she totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep last night  but obviously tugged it off first  thing this morning! XD
  • After Rebecca arrives, I get fifteen more minutes and use the pot :P  for one tinkle before we get me kitted,   aftter which I head over  to the bathroom and brush  teeth. After drinking one tall cup of wattter, 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! 
  • After washing and drying Era, Rebecca and I head out to the gobbling :P table. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbutttered) toast without cheese but very lightly  spread with avocado, another full cup of water, all my usual drugs  :P and my first big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Over and after breakfast I happily read for thirty minutes first up, while PIG mum yapped @ Rebecca.
  • Lol, I haveta interrupt PIG mum's yapping to ask Rebecca to please gimme (my neck, throat, face and both hands) some sunscreen before I use the loo for one more tinkle then climb into the passenger seat of her car. Thanks to Rebecca who helps me with my seatbelt (as she kindly does both ways) and then she tootles us off to Underwood Market Place,  parks out the front and grabs a trolley for us.
  • First we buy groceries from Woolies then I get my once-weekly honey chicken sushi roll for arvo  tea before Rebecca tootles me home for a nice hot shower -  hairwash today. Also thanks to Rebecca who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried,  creamed and rekitted, lunch is the last of the bangers and mash I cooked with Ari  two  days ago that  PIG mum turned into fried rice with lotsa veggies and TTWO more big mugs of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar.  Originally horrid PIG mum said only one but I had planned for  that contingent: after my shower I asked Rebecca to please make me another white tea with two sugars immediately, then after you finish cleaning the bathroom and can  back out  to the kitchen I'll push  the empty cup towards you and stick one finger into the air; please  make  me one more big mug of white tea sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. Done  deal~
  • At 12:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then said my thanks and  byes to Rebecca, who wants another baby!
  • Did my daily Bible readings then plopped online for myself.
  • Once I've used  up  the most important  two hours of my  day I'll use the loo for one tinkle then sit @ the gobbling :P table, munch my  arvo  tea chicken sushi  roll  and read for another two hours since it's only Saturdays I  cn  spend a blessed three hours with my  nose buried in a book~
  • Toms: just church, definitely nothing special. Actually, the special thing's I'll get lunch out @ Ho  Lin Wah  with a carer before she sees me home and showered since PIG mum's out having her  weekly coffee and  gossip session with her aunty friends and doesn't drive @ night anymore~
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Friday Post 324d

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding  total for Friday  now stands @ 4745. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • When nature randomly called @ 8:10/8:40pm, I walked myself once slowly and safely to the loo  and  back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Finished and sent around my GCCW homework, so nothing to do for the next week. XD Unsure why Mary always submits that early?
  • At 9pm I  walked myself slowly and safely once more to  the loo for one 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: Rebecca's minding me from 9:30am  till 1pm. Presuming  we'll  buy groceries @ Woolies plus my weekly honey chicken sushi roll for arvo tea. Fingers crossed that Rebecca will   feed me three big mugs of white tea with  sweetener!
  • Obviously dad's not here to take me to church to play table tennis with him  and PIG mum    definitely won't; looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online, reading for three hours and hopefully watching the 6pm news bulletin  for the 195TH time.
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 324c

 Good evening! Firstly,  Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4618. Ha, I'm  over 4.5 grand; that's even rarer than four grand! Just sorry that I'll not reach half a normal person today.   XD Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • Oh, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Stands Guard'. 
  • Before returning online I used the loo for one tinkle.
  • Happily  watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 194TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  • At 7pm, 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.
  • Aww I thought I'd keep eating the bangers and mash I cooked yesterday with Ari but PIG mum says that's for lunch toms!
  • Dinner tonight: the less-yummy rice, lotsa I've forgotten which boiled vegetable,  two small slices of tasteless soup pork and two small pieces of dried beancurd.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one 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 loo  trip with my final, final  plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight  and what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em.   ^^

Friday Post 324b

 Whoops PIG mum reminds me that I'm dividing Wally's total by 1.7 not 1.2 meaning I'll not make half a normal person tonight, sorry. XD  Potential final, final plodding total for Friday:  4449. Aww, how come I  couldn't have plodded five fewer steps? 4444 would've looked cooler! XD Righteo, potential final,  final  events for today?

  • Since I lost track of time I suddenly realised that I'd already reached the PISSY two hour net time limit that PIG mum so gleefully restricts me on and had to end the first post abruptly.   XD
  • I used the loo for one tinkle then headed over to the gobbling :P table, calling out to PIG mum please for some arvo tea but whoops I forgot she'd already left me some before heading upstairs and hitting the sack; I apologised when she came back downstairs. XD
  • There was one seed inside the juicy mandarin PIG mum had peeled for  me and I was surprised that I was already back to plain crackers since I've only had five flavoured ones since aren't there @ least seven inside one pack? PIG mum just laughed that I'd lost count. XD
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 5975 steps (ooh I'm more than half  a normal person today; that's rare!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "The 'I Will' Of God"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Give To Meet The Needs Of Others' and  fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Junk Files'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, what better way than to end the working week then with my first awesome sleep in two/three days? Nature  did call when the noisy garbage truck woke me THUNDERING down our road to tip bins and I asked my bladder did she want me to use the pot :P? Thankfully, it's Spring now and the Sun was already up! Butt my bladder replies nah you can fall back asleep; I'm alright. Thus, Daddy Bear and I happily  cuddled and snored -  all the way till noisy  PIG mum beginning her daily noisy a-TTHUMPING around upstairs before I woke again for the pot! :P  Afterwards, 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*
  • Not long afterwards, PIG mum lets 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, like she's done for the  past  FORTNIGHT! >< 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 opens the door for Jane,  she knocks, pushes open the door and calls "Good morning  Em; fifteen more minutes." Daddy Bear replies with one single paw nod and just like that  she's gone, thus denying him to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo'! @ her. XD
  • Once Jane comes back and taps me up, I  use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom \o brush teeth (oh, I started a new Colgate toothpaste last night; wanna see how long it takes me to get through one tube), sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P  table with Jane.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of Weet-Bix porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado  and very lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug 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* Also thanks to Jane who turned  Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure~
  • Breakfast finished, Jane smothers my face, hands, neck and throat with sunscreen then accompanies 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  Sally and Jane tootles me off to the NAB for two hours' physio  with Chan. Thanks to Jane who kindly helps me buckle my  seatbelt and yay for a smooth run to UQ;  there's like ten minutes to play with our mobiles before I head up to level two.
  • Physio with Chan today: Standing reaching for Era with left and forward weight shift, one fast but safe lap around the Great Court, eight laps obstacle course inside the clinic walking over red mat and step over beams and standing tic tac toe and hangman.
  • After sitting over the loo for two tinkles Jane tootles me home and I take a nice hot shower  - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Jane to hold my  stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is the mangers and mash I cooked yesterday with Ari (PIG mum cooked fried rice with like all vegetables) and one huge mug of herbal tea.
  • At 1:58pm (usually it's 1:55pm but Jane and I both forgot XD I sat over the loo for just one tinkle then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes. She's back next Wednesday for table tennis and isn't she lucky: she's hitting some rooftop bar for RiverFire toms night!
  • Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle  then head over to the gobbling :P table and calling PIFG mum for some arvo tea.
  • Looking forward to  watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 194TH time!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Wednesday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3015 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'He Does All That He Pleases'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Use The Gift That God Has Given You' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Ultimate Snapshot' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm  really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES online after I get home from table tennis and attend GG tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, I thought plodding 5000+ steps yesterday would score me an awesome sleep last night, but nature called! >< Never mind, I was prolly just too excited getting to catchup with Sandon  yesterday~ *sigh*
  • 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 cuddle and snore, nature calling once more around 9am. PIG mum doesn't  start herdaily noisy  a-THUMPING around until well after 9:15pm; by the time I've mostly independently kitted myself and she's finished with my  footwear, it's past  9:50am. *sigh*
  • After letting PIG mum gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth I sit 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 is one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very thinly spread with avocado and hopefully  very lightly  sprinkled with salt (couldn't taste any, even after I  licked the plate clean >< XD), all  my usual drugs :P and one full mug 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.

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 breajfast, I  walk myself slowly and safely back to the loo, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 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.

Monday Post 324d

One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3529. Ha, I'm just over  3.5 grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After one loo trip, Winnie hands me back to Jacinta and next we head to Sunny Park and buy   groceries from Woolies after Jacinta grabs a trolley for us.
  • Happiness is having fifty cents arvo for a soft serve; Jacinta gets herself one too plus small chips and sticks chips into my ice cream for me! :D
  • Back home I  take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helps me rinse  out my hair, thus freeing Era to  hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea might've been one yummy banana/one mouthful of gloopy passionfruit/some other fruit, one tasty rice cracker and TWO big mugs of white tea since clever Jacinta found PIG mum's new hiding spot for the honey! May haveta text her toms again for it; maybe behind the second bottom shelf @ the back of  the tall cupboard behind sth? XD
  • Happily read for fifty minutes while Jacinta cleaned the bathroom then sat and very gently massaged Ela for about forty minutes.

Monday Post 324c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3442  (so hopefully I'll have reached 3.5  grand before the night's out XD) but secondly  and way more importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-SIX MINUTES online after I visit the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing today's events?

  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, nature calling once more around 9am, justt before PIG mum  begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon,  she's let herself into my  room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the batt strap and laying out the ttops before leaving me  to get myself mostly independently kittted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops first then giving myself fifteen more minutes.
  • That done, I immediately call PIG mum and ask her to please finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces since it's nearly 9:45am! Still, she takes her time about things, meaning I don't let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth until nearly 9:50am. *sigh*
  • That done I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself  slowly and safely out to  the gobbling :P table for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • PIG mum's left me one more of the ttuna buns I helped her recently make for breakfast! I also pop all  my usual drugs :P  and drink one  full mug 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, I  walk myself slowly and safely back tto the toilett,  again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 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! 

  • After washing  and drying  Era, I  climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car. Amazingly, today she helps me buckle my seatbelt before tootling me off to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage!

  • At  Ray's, I use the loo for one tinkle then lie down for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element, yapping ceaselessly @ Ray; my sincerest thanks to him who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. PIG mum excitedly yapped one syllable five  times before continuing today. XD

  • After one more tinkle, PIG mum tootles us home and I read my daily Bible passages and tootle online two minutes for myself before PIG mum summons me for lunch.

  • She's topped up oven-baked pizza with pineapple, salmon and cheese! I munch two slices and drain a beautiful big mug of Chinese tea~

  • After taking the bowl over to the sink, I walk 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.

  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two tinkles then sit by the door awaiting for Jacinta's arrival @ 2pm and climb into her car after she arrives.

  • Jacinta tootles  me off to Breathe for physio with Winnie.

  • Physio today: 1.554km bike rideassissted push ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with more left weight shift, forty steps for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg extensions for Elf, tennis ball throwing and catching for Era and boxing 🥊!

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*

  • After publishing the previous composing the previous post, I continued writing my GCCW homework. The previous meeting was only like three days ago (Thursday);  can't believe Mary's already handed her homework in! 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: PIG mum'll help me up coz I'm seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
  • Will doubtless come home for lunch but unsure who's taking me to Breathe for physio @ 2:30pm.

  • When PIG mum summoned me for dinner @ 7:20pm, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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, lotsa choko, some pork mince and one lil mouthful of steamed egg  which I obviously saved for last.
  • Dinner was spooned down with one 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.

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's  potential final, final plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2614. Ha, I'm over 2.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Once I'd used up the most important two hours of my day, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to munch the arvo tea PIG mum had kindly left me before hitting pigland upstairs.
  • After  peeling   and eating one yummy   banana,  munching one tasty cracker (the 6th?)  and drinking one huge mug of green tea, I used the loo  for  one tinkle, 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.

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* Not only  that, I wake with a remembered dream! For my 7th remembered dream this morning, I've just ordered my meal from Ho Lin Wah but before it arrives, I wake!! >< XD
  • Before I've time to fall back asleep, PIG mum starts her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap and laying the tee out before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops then  giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

  • PIG mum tossed me one banana (to peel myself, passed me one tasty cracker (the 5th/6th?) and poured me one huge  mug of herbal  tea before returning upstairs for pigland. I happily  read  A Fortunate Life for another two hours and five minutes, since it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
  • After using the loo for one more tinkle, I returned online.
  • All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s, read by Paul Taylor) for the 190TH time: Wilson, De Meillon, Ernst, Thistlewaite, Raja, Shannon, Raval, Shamba (first name), Ha-teya (first name),  Gripske, MacGoverne, Bowen (heard), Albanese (heard), Cook, Miles, Scanlon, Jiselle (first name), Manning, Jaze (first name), Pink, Bennett, Tsimpikas, Jai  (first name), Arrow  (heard), Bijit (first name), Dey, Sinclair, Epstein (heard), Slater, Borthwick (heard),Farnworth, Cobbo, Plath, Erland (first name), Haarland, Trump, Dearden  (heard), Nanai (heard),  Millward, Rozynsiki, Bradley, Edwards,  Parton, Hannay, Rogers, Stolz, Gotterup, Kiss (heard), Panozzo, Hardwick (heard),  Pendlebury, Shannon, Zoungas, Nelson, Evangeline (first name) and Kumar.

I'll join once the news ends."

  • After asking for and receiving permission to join dinner @ 7pm after the news ended I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era 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 turnip, lotsa soup carrot and some yummy eggy meat brisket with tofu on  top!

  • Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful 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.

Saturday Post 324

 Good afternoon!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2308 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Forgiven For Jesus's Sake";  thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Jesus Is In Your  Corner (2)' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Breath Of Life". Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive  awesome sleep  last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am, and after one pot :P trip  I immediately did those exercises Winnie  taught me  to prevent further back pain before 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 for the pot :P around 9am just before PIG mum begins her daily noisy  a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let  herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and gives Elf's ankle 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 Before she did that,  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*

  • Once PIG mum lets Jane in,  she knocks, says good morning and I'll come back  and help you  up  in fifteen more minutes, okay? Daddy  Bear gives a paw nod and imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo' @ her  and she wisely leaves but when she comes back two minutes early I protest; luckily, she goes and washes my glasses for me first.  XD
  • 900 seconds later I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, asking had she taken holidays? Eeep, no, she'd  caught appendicitis! o_O
  • We get me kitted, I head over to he bathroom and brush teeth before drinking one tall cup of  water then sitting 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! 
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P  for breakfast with Jane. 
  • Aside from munching my weekly  fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very thinly  spread with some avocado, I also enjoy my first big mug of white tea with one spoonful of  honey, pop all my usual drugs :P and drain another tall mug of water. Over and after breakfast I happily  read A Fortunate Life for thirty minutes.
  • Reading done, I ask Jane please to gimme (my  face  and both  hands) some sunscreen  before I use the loo  for one more tinkle then climb into the passenger seat of Sally the Stonic.
  • Jane tootles us off to Underwood Marketplace, parks underground and grabs a trolley  for  us.
  • First, I buy groceries from Woolies; that nice Africa man's manning the checkout today! I thought his name was Hambo  but it's actually like Ilyambo?
  • Groceries bought, we head next to Sushi  Creators to   get my honey   chicken sushi   roll. Sweet, Jane just  gets me to lean  against the countter while she orders it. When the girl hands her the receipt, Jane's surprised she knew Jane wanted one but  the girl nods @ me and laughs, explaining "She's a regular." XD
  • Back home I take a nice hot shower -  hairwash  today. Also  thanks to Jane who helps me rinse out my  hair, thus freeing Era to  hold my  stupid  right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one bowl of the yummy pasta I helped PIG mum cook  yesterday plus TWO more big mugs of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey. We'd worked it out beforehand: since mother may  be around, I'd just pass her my empty cup   and she'd know what to do.  XD
  • At 12:55pm I  sat once more over the loo for two  tinkles then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes.  She's back toms and we're having lunch   @ Ho Lin Wah, woot!
  • Once I've used up   the most important  two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle then  sitt, munch my  arvo  tea sushi roll  and read A Fortunate Life for anotther two  hours and five/ten minutes, since it's only Wednesdays that I get   to   spend a blessed three hours reading~
  • Toms: just  church, nothing special. Actually, the special thing's that Jane's taking me for lunch to Ho Lin  Wah while PIG mum's enjoying her coffee and gossip session with her auntty friends! Phew that  Jane eats Chinese and isn't  vegetarian.
  • Jane will see me homw annd showered before leaving  @ 4pm. No plans for the rest  of the day.
  • Anyways, hopoefully bbl,  else looking forward to  seeing  everyone @ church toms!Cheers,Em. ^^

Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past  two/three days nature didn't call until  7:45asm 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*
  • Shortly afterwards, PIG mum starts 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 the arrival of the new agency carer.
  • Phew, Becca comes promptly. After I've had fifteen more minutes, I use the pot :P  for three more tinkles  and introduce ourselves.  Becca's thirty-three from Ghana, has an eighteen month old baby boy (who her husband's looking after but usually works with Queensland Rail) and she's studying social work somewhere.
  • After  getting kitted, 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 Becca and point out  my Minion collection  to her. XD
  • Breakfast is one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with salt, one bowl of plain porridge, all  my usual  drugs :P and one full mug 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*  For the second consecutive day, I happily watched Sunrise over breakfast~
  • Breakfast finished, I ask Becca please to gimme (my face and both  hands) some sunscreen  and then   she walks behind me back  to  the bathroom before returning  to the bathroom and washing the breakfast stuff 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  Becca's car   and she tootles  me  off to  the  NAB.  During the  drive I shared a brief  WhatsApp  videocall   with  dearest  dad and thanks to Becca who kindly helped me with my seatbelt both ways.
  • Less than thirty minutes  left, so  just  briefly:
  • Physio  for two hours with Chan: Thirty barefoot Elf sit-to-stands with left and forward weight shift, twenty double leg push ups on tower of power, thirty single leg push ups for Elf on tower of power, eight circuits obstacle course inside gym and ten laps long hallway walking.
  • Used loo  for two tinkles,  got home,  showered, had lunch, used loo  for another tinkle then plopped online.
  • Planning to  read  for one hour so don't  haveta watch  the 6pm  news and see  how  the  Broncos lostt. *cringe*
  • Toms:  Jane's back! Think  she's with me 9:30am   till 1pm!
  • Planning to read A Fortunate Life for tthree hours!
  • Annyways, hopefully  bbl else wishing everyone a smashinng weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 324b

 Heylo again, good evening  and one final gritting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 2965 (sorry,  not quite 3000; maybe toms XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "Don't Add To The Cross." Only I'm just grumpy that horrid Melbourne have defeated the Broncos for Adam Reynolds' farewell tonight from Suncorp  Stadium, hmph!  ><"Hope  toms fares better ...  *sigh*

Cheers,

Em.   ^^

Thursday Post 324

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1560 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD);  secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Shadows And Dreams';  thirdly, TWFTT topic's 'Think Good Thoughts' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Where God Reigns'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am and aftter 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*
  • Shortly afterwards, noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and she's soon let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting the arrival   of the new agency carer.
  • Her name's Terri, she's from The Cook Islands and she's already a grandma! We introduce ourselves while I'm sitting over the loo for three more tinkles. After we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Terri.
  • Breakfast is one slice of toast very  lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with salt (suppose it's just my inferior tastebuds that prevent me from detecting any? XD), all my  usual drugs :P and one full  mug of water  Aside from happily  watching Sunrise over breakfast, I also 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 giving me (both hands and face)  some sunscreen, Terri 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 backseat of Terri's car and she tootles me off to the Garbo library for GCCW! Only it's especially busy along Logan Road this morning and Terri takes awhile before finding where the library is, hence why I skip the arrival loo trip and head straight into meeting room one.

  • Only nine attended and Tammy went with me to the loo once @ the break but Sattya thought my homework piece was deserving of CAKE and brought some;  I even got  seconds! :D

  • The meeting ended nine minutes early today and our next homework topic's 'The Last   Train To Nowhere'.

  • Less than twenty-five minutes left, so just briefly:

  • Used loo for one more tinkle, went home and showered then had a tuna in tomato and onion toastie with only one slice of cheese and one mug of powdered HK-style milk tea for lunch.

  • Ari came and gave Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises

  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 189TTTH time!

  • Hopefully PIG mum'll gimme dinner @ 7pm since I wanna watch the Broncos play the Storm afterwards; coverage begins  @ 7:30pm! Just grumpy that Reynolds has been denied his Suncorp farewell; I SAID in my XMas Greetttings last year that he and Hunt should've retired immediately after winning the premiership last year!! >< *sigh*

  • Tonight's ice cream night, yay; like I say every week; a very little's better than none @ all!

  • Toms: Milly's coming  @ 8am and taking me  to the NAB for two hours of  physio with Natasha. She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 2pm.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • Toms:  PIG mum'll help  me up,  since I've got  a late-morning appointment to  see Ray for  some acupuncture and massage. Bet  she's simply   DYING to  yap unceasingly @ him.  XD

Sunday Post 323c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's  new plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2322 and secondly, Joni's  devotional topic's 'The Owner Of The Upper Room'.  Anyways,  continuing tonight's events?

  • PIG mum didn't lemme shower until 5:20pm. *sigh*
  • 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 my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening  both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was all  done after only 9%, but  happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
  • Since she'll not even dry my back for me anymore, once she dried the back of the seat for me I did everything else until Elf's AFO straps needed sticking and both laces needed tying.
  • After drying 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.
  • All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine’s, read by someone XD )  for  the 187TH time:  D’Alessandro, Crisafulli, Whyte (heard), Thomas, Heagney, Rowan, Greer, Trump, Probyn, Hanson, Farley (heard), Bowen, Timar, Croucher, Suszy (first name), Little, Sinclair, Herrington, Mendy, Mills, Todhunter, Brooks (heard), Ritchie (heard), Markle (heard), Fyles, Goodfall,  Jiselle (first name), Manning, Habana, Bates, Oates (heard), Ford, Tindall, Gretel (first   name), Mead,Thomson,Cummins, Starc, Prince, Levi (heard),Horsburgh, Meyer (heard),Meninga, Ciraldo,Hannay,  Zahos (heard), Broc (first  name), Feeney,Green, Jakob (first name, heard), Funk, Starc, Lyon, Roberts,Mitchell and Meninga (heard). someoneead the sports report and Luke Bradnam read the weather report from Southport.  Brisbane was 11-24 today. Brisbane toms: 14-23. Mt. Gravatt toms:   11-23. Sunrise:  6:10am Sunset:  5:32pm

  • Once the news ended, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely to the dinner table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

  • Dinner tonight: leftover from dinner last night plus lotsa added vegetables.

  • Dinner was spooned down  with one bowl  of soup;  after taking the bowl to  the sink I  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.

  • Uncle Slam  said he'd pick  dad up for the airport @ 8:30pm but when he'd not arrived by 8:40pm I sent him a Whatsapp message asking  where are you?

  • But he arrived shortly, and obviously I had to walk out  to the garage to hug and kiss dearest dad and wish him a safe trip back to HK!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after one last loo trip @ 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 week ahead!
