Sunday Post 328d

 One final good evening and  greeting for tonight!  Em's final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2152, meaning a round trip to the loo and back only takes me forty-nine steps now, down from the original seventy-five ...? Suppose it's a good thing that I walk with bigger steps now. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I continued reading  and sharing 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: PIG mum'll help  me up, since I'm seeing  Ray for some acupuncture and massage come late morning. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
  • Coming home and  having lunch with dearest dad before Jacinta takes me to Breathe for physio @ 2pm. Hopefully Winnie can help with the sore back ...
  • We'll buy groceries and I'll get home for a shower before Jacinta leaves @ 6pm.
  • Hoping to read for one  hour and  watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 117TH time!
  • Righteo, wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo  again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's new plodding total  for Sunday now stands @ exactly 1700 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'I AM'. Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • I promise I stopped surfing the net once the most important  two hours of my day were up but I  stayed glued to the computer screen and watched the Socceroos defeat Türkiye 2-0!!
  • After using the loo for one tinkle I sat @ the gobbling :P table and had the arvo tea PIG mum had left me  before hitting the sack: one yummy banana, one tasty cracker and one huge mug of green tea. Over and after arvo tea I happily read the book club novel for  one hour, 
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1369 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Who Killed Jesus?'; thirdly,  TWFT topic's 'Pray For A Revelation Of God's Love (3)" and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Serving Side By Side'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Nature called once last night around 1:30am; following another pot :P trip around 6:45am I immediately fell back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy shortly around 7am!
  • Actually I fell back asleep that deeply that I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my  room and hit me with the eye goo!  She then helped exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted; I comply with that after immediately struggling into  the tee plus  jumper, giving myself fifteen more minutes and using the pot :P for one more tinkle first. Whilst complying, 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*
  • 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 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 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*
  • 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. 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 and buckle my own seatbelt (what I've done all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks near the end. I hike up the ramp, use the disabled  loo once myself for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then grab my usual spot for service on the most left.
  • Yay, I get to stay seated for service today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Tyvus with another sermon from the Apostles' Creed series, This I Believe. Huge thanks to Pastor Peter Pie who Whatsapped me a copy so I can remain seated to read it whilst everyone else stands.
  • Service ended sixteen minutes early; after PIG mum collected me, I used the 2bd/3rd cubicle of the normal female toilet (since the disabled's lid was closed and the first cubicle like occupied), washed and dried both hands then hiked around to the back for morning tea, where dad already had a packet of Arnott's biscuits and one soft plastic cup of sugarless white tea for me.
  • Uncle Simon wandered  over for a chat! Turns out he's getting coached by this female Chinese player who's actually some high-ranking fancy coach where I play every Wednesday @ Brisbane Table Tennis!
  • Everyone else had lunch @ MuiG  @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown but  dad made me eat Hungry Jack's with him @ Hungry Jack's while PIG mum was enjoying her coffee and gossip social with all her aunty friends. Alas it's been FIVE WEEKS  since I last enjoyed a proper lunch out. *sigh* Today I munched one beef cheeseburger (but the Hungry Jack's ones are yucky since they contain mustard) ten/eleven short chips, like half the orange juice, several sips of the disgusting free coffee and two/three chomps of the mini Drumstick dad shook with his Hungry Jack's app!
  • Back home, I used  the loo for one more tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online,  always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Unsure where dinner's tonight but it'll prolly mark ONE whole WEEK since I've enjoyed a proper dinner out. *sigh*
  • Toms: PIG  mum'll help me up, since I've got a late morning appointment to see Ray for  some massage and acupuncture. Bet she's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
  • We'll come straight home for lunch  with dearest dad afterwards; PIG mum says I'll buy groceries with  Jacinta after she takes me to Breathe for physio.  Ugh, last session was my 50TH hour of physio; also hope Winnie can help my sore back ... *sigh*
  • Jacinta will see me home and showered before leaving @ 6pm; I'm hoping to watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 117TH time, provided I can watch it for the 116TH time tonight!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S.

Saturday Post 328c

 Good evening again  and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2737. Anyways, just briefly, since I'm nearly outta time, final, final events for tonight?

  • Bought groceries with Jacinta @ the Underwood MarketPlace Woolies plus my  arvo  tea sushi  roll from Sushi Creators then came home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jacinta who helped me rinse  out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Ate lunch, went to church  and played table tennis with  dearest dad~
  • Got home and read till after 4:30pm; it's only Thursday that I  can spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book~
  • Did  a 2nd stinky unspeakable, read the daily Bible readings then watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 115TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of today's first  post.
  • Had dinner (dad cooked really yummy bark cheet gai!), drank soup, took bowl to kitchen, returned online,  rang Aunty Lai @ 9pm then used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
  • Toms: just church,  definitely special special.  Resigned to a pissy lunch  with dad @ Hungry Jack's (meaning it's been FIVE WEEKS since I last enjoyed a proper lunch out *sigh*) then a stressful  arvo  @ the hands of PIG mum. *Another sigh*
  • But hoping to read the book club novel for another hour and watch the 6pm news for the 116TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefullky see everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^ 

Saturday Post 328b

 Heylo again  and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for today now stands @ 2674 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Wash Me Throughly' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed SIX MINUTES online after I ring Aunty Lai @ 9pm!! Righteo, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! I'd hit the sack that early that I'd fallen asleep  and already woken with a full  bladder @ like 11:57pm but after one pot :P trip had slept soundly  until waking  again to relieve myself @ 6:45am.
  • After 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; after nature calls again around 9am and 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*
  • Shortly afterwards, PIG mum begins her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside  and awaiting Jacinta's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After Jacinta arrives, she knocks, opens the door and says "Good morning Em; I'll help you up in  fifteen minutes, okay?" Daddy Bear gives one  paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo!' @ her; Jacinta smirks but wisely leaves, thus saving her from  the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
  • Once I've counted down fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :P and announce to Jacinta (who's inside the bathroom) that I'm hungry. She immediately comes, we get me kitted and then I head  over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one full mug 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! 
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jacinta. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, very lightly  spread with avocado and yay, Jacinta even manages to  squeeze in one slice of cheese for me~ I  also  drink  another full mug of water, pop all my usual drugs :P  and enjoy my first big mug of white tea sweetened with of spoonful of honey.
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Friday Post 328c

 Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3392. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • Should've started my newest GCCW homework after publishing the  previous post but played mobile games instead. XD Will  begin after publishing this post.
  • 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: Jacinta's minding me 9:30am  till  1pm. Presuming  we'll buy  my arvo tea sushi  roll  from Underwood MarketPlace plus any groceries PIG mum wants.
  • Yay that Jacinta will feed me  three big mugs of white tea with sweetener~
  • Honestly, I'm that disappointed that I can't compete in the Sunshine Coast table tennis competition this Sunday that I don't wanna play with dad @ church toms ... *sigh*
  • But definitely planning to read the new book  club novel for three hours; it's really good!\
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 328b

 Heylo again and good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3313 (sorry I'm not bothered to get up, plod twenty steps then sit back down for a new plodding total  of 3333 XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Place  Your Hope In Him'. Righteo, continuing tonight's events?

  • When the parents summoned me over for dinner @ 7:35pm  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 yummy cabbage, lotsa soup carrot  and 1.5 slices of that DELICIOUS chicken dish I'd cooked with  Christina earlier this arvo! Told dad I understood why PIG mum had decided for him that he was too  tired to drive me all the way to the Sunshine Coast for the table tennis competition but did he prevent PIG mum from asking for me could I get a carer to take  me since  he didn't wanna pay the petrol fare? No, replied dad.  It'a just too far. *sigh*
  • 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.

  • Righteo, 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 weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Friday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been  hard @  work plodding 3189 steps (ha, I'm over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Faith For The Future';  thirdly, TWFT topic's "Pray For A Revelation Of God's Love (1) and fourthly, Our  Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Seasons Of Love" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-FIVE MINUTES  online after I  watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 114TH time!! Oh, and my final, final plodding total for Thursday's actually 2188 (ha, I'm over two grand XD) but argh the  Broncos lost   AGAIN! >< Anyways,  events for today?

  • What better way to end the working week then with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down  the road @ 7:45am and started tipping bins; 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 once more for the pot :P when PIG mum begins  her noisy daily a-THUMPING around  upstairs. Soon,  she's let herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo  before returning outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival.
  • Once Louiza arrives (on time, good girl! XD), she knocks, opens the door and says "Good morning Em;  I'll   get you up in fifteen minutes, okay?" Daddy Bear gives one paw nod and flicks his paw 'shoo' @ her; Louiza wisely closes the door and leaves, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
  • When she comes back and taps me, I  sit  up, say good morning and use the pot :P for three more tinkles. We get me  kitted, I head over  to the bathroom and brush teeth, sit over the loo  for one tinkle,  wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who tells me that she had a bagel for breakfast this morning.
  • For the first time this week, I finally get  a slice of toast! Unsure why PIG mum has removed bread from my diet; apparently white bread makes you fat? The toast was very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled with a tiny bit of salt; I also pop all my usual drugs  :P and drink one full 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* Oh, and also thanks to Louiza who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure~
  • After breakfast I call  Louiza back please  to gimme some sunscreen (both  hands and face) and then she walks behind me back to the toilet before returning to the kitchen  and washing the breakfast stuff up. Over the loo proper, , 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 Louiza's car. She kindly helps me with my seatbelt (as she kindly does both  ways) and then she tootles me off to the NAB for my final physio session this block. We arrive early enough to have several minutes to play with our mobiles before heading upstairs @ 9:50am.
  • Today my last session for this block  was with a Japanese student; Adam  was away! Physio today Weight bearing for Elf,  beanbag chucking for Era,  lotsa left weight shift and stepping for Erf,  a little right weight shift and stepping for Erf,  six laps obstacle course walking and eight laps long hallway walking.
  • After one more loo trip, Louiza took me home the  long way, avoiding the highway, since her GPS had told her the highway had crashes.
  • Meaning when I got home I showered my fastest - hairwash today.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, PIG mum made a tuna with one cheese toastie for my lunch with one huge mug of green tea. Louiza cleaned the bathroom then got me to sign her off five minutes early. She's back next  Thursday 9:30am.
  • I'd only just finished lunch when Christina  came and cooked some chicken  dish with me! Luckily we'd just finished cooking when PIG mum came downstairs and shooed her away. I thought the session was supposed to last one hour? Will ask PIG mum why she shooed Christina away early.
  • Arvo tea was one yummy peeled orange, one  tasty rice cracker and one huge mug of disgusting Singaporean herbal tea. Happiness was starting to read the new  book club novel for one hour, reaching page twenty-five @ exactly 3:55pm.
  • Afterwards, I used the loo for one tinkle then booted the computer  up, recorded down my physio  for today and did my daily Bible readings.
  • Happily watched the 6pm news  bulletin (Nine's) for the 114TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of this post.
  • Toms: Jacinta's minding me 9:30am till like 1:15pm. Presuming we'll buy my weekly honey chicken sushi roll plus any groceries PIG mum wants from Woolies before going home for a shower and  lunch.
  • Not gonna ask  dad about playing table  tennis toms; I'm too disappointed that I'll not get to attend the Sunshine Coast table tennis competition this Sunday. *sigh*
  • But planning to read for three hours toms and watch the 6pm news for the 115TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 328b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1048. See? Told you I'd  crack one grand! XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Apologies for the abrupt ending of the previous post; I suddenly  realised that I'd just exceeded the PISSY two hour time limit PIG mum so gleefully restricts me to!
  • Used loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table and asked PIG mum for some arvo tea please. She peeled one juicy orange for me, passed me one tasty  cracker and poured me one huge mug of green tea. Was gonna read for one hour (there was enough  time)  but PIG mum had recently cleared the table and there wasn't any novel within grabbing reach bar the Matthew Reilly one, which I'd just finished earlier that week. Hence I just returned online.
  • Originally Lucy was taking me to book club but she suddenly pulled out and now someone called Finau from Staffing Options will take me? Google says that's a Tongan surname!
  • Gonna share Facebook memories now, sit over the loo @ 5:25pm and hope this Finau persons turns up @ 5:30pm and takes me to book club!
  • Coming home I'll message PIG mum to please microwave dinner for me, but once the players run out I'm crashing the couch to watch the game and wolfing down the rest of dinner come the halftime  break following a loo trip!
  • Hey, I've finished this post but it's still not totally dark yet! Good afternoon again, then. XD
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl tonight,  else hope everyone has a smashing end to the weekend toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 992 steps (so promise I'll have cracked one grand before Thursday's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When Reason Serves Rebellion'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "You Can Pull Down That Stronghold' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Be Prepared To Share'. Anyways, just briefly, events for today?

  • Nature called once around 1:30am and surprise, Louiza arrived promptly @ 8am this morning! XD
  • Sat over pot :P for three tinkles, brushed teeth, used loo for one tinkle, drank one bowl of plain porridge for breakfast (thanks to Louiza who turned Sunrise on for my viewing pleasure), did a stinky unspeakable then attended GCCW!
  • Ten attended today, Mary brought CAKE for morning tea and homework topic for next meeting's 'A friend in need is a friend indeed (in deed).' Meeting ended like fifteen minutes early, hence why I rang Louiza for pickup. She stopped for petrol going home and bought a Chupa Chup  for me!

Wednesday Post 328b

 Heylo again, good morning again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday.  XD Firstly, today I've been hard  @ work plodding only 421 steps (since obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Pipers's daily devotional topic from last night's '"Prayer's For  Sinners"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Don't Quit; Keep Going!";fourthly, Our  Daily  Bread's devotional topic's "Our Future With Christ" and fifthly, Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday's actually 2424 (sorry, not quite 2.5 grand XD) but sixthly and way most  importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I get home from GG tonight!! *sigh*  Anyways, let's start with yesterday's events first!

  • After using up the most important two hours of the day online I headed over to the gobbling :P  table and asked PIG mum please for some RICE for arvo tea, since I hadn't had any yet today!
  • At 5:25pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then sat by the door awaiting Lucy, who arrived slightly late since she was stuck  in traffic and good grief I'm more than  two DECADES  older than  her coz she's not even eighteen yet! o_O XD
  • Eep for the first time this year we've gotta pay for parking since all the disabled parks are taken! ><
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2024 steps (ha, I'm just over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Glorify God In Your Body'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Practice God-Confidence Rather Than Self-Confidence' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Glory And Majesty'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night; that's already the 9th time I've achieved one straight week of awesome sleeps, and I've already exceeded the eight it took me the entire year back in 2009 when I first started counting them!
  • Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:35am 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 once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before noisy 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 before returning outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival, only to reenter the room @ 9:46am and snap "Peggy's late. Fifteen more minutes." I immediately comply but tell PIG mum that Peggy's prolly just stuck in traffic; when she arrives tell her to help me up @ 9:45am. Sure enough, that's what happens!
  • Once I've counted down 900 seconds, I swing myself over to   the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce "Peggy, I'm hungry ..." She's inside the bathroom and immediately enters my room; we bid each other good morning before getting me kitted.
  • I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth (thanks to Peggy who's squirted me some toothpaste), sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast with Peggy, who tells me that she had her two usual fried eggs for breakfast.
  • Me, it's just another bowl of plain porridge. Still no toast. *sigh* I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain 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 ask Peggy please to gimme some sunscreen (my face and both hands) then she walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast stuff up.  Over the loo 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 Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza. Thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  • Peggy parks, grabs a trolley for us and then we both buy groceries @ Coles. Seeing Vicki behind the checkout we head her way and have a nice chat together while she's scanning our items~
  • our other stop's the Pinelands Bakehouse for my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi. Uncle serves me today; when I ask him where's Aunty Nancy? Uncle replies Vietnam! Holidays! I next ask when you holiday and Uncle just laughs. Last, I ask him where's Aunty Lisa; Uncle just jerks his thumb behind him and I take that to mean she's inside the kitchen working.
  • Our other stop's Sunnybank Hills  Shoppingtown! Unfortunately, Peggy refuses to do side parks but not coz she's incompetent like PIG mum but since she's scared someone will hit and damage her car if she parked there! Instead, she parks two from the very end and when I wishfully say couldn't you have found a closer park she's petty and parks @ the absolute end. *sigh* Never mind; apparently walking more's good for me~
  • After one toilet trip I grabbed Feist's Master Of Furies and happily read that for about one hour, starting @ 11:31 from page twenty-five and reaching page fifty @ 12: 41pm.When Peggy returned from grocery shopping, I noted that I stopped @ pg. fifty-six.
  • Whoops only twenty minutes left, so super-briefly:
  • Got home and showered - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my yummy toasted crunchy pork bahn mi with one huge mug of yummy earl   grey tea sweetened with one spoonful of molasses. Jacinta texted me back telling where she'd found the honey then Peggy found it too; next time! XD
  • Signed Peggy off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm~ She's back same time next week~
  • Lucy's taking me to Toastmasters tonight!
  • Toms: may buy groceries with PIG mum before Liam comes and gives Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises.
  • Think Jane's taking me to table tennis toms arvo?
  • Hoping to watch the 6pm bulletin for the 113TH time and will remind PIG mum to please gimme dinner when Jane leaves since Angie's picking me up for GG around 7:10pm!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Monday Post 328e

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3253. Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo  for two more tinkles and then Jacinta tootles me off  to Breathe for physio. Arriving early, we both  play with our mobiles for like fifteen minutes before heading inside.
  • Physio  today: 1.683km bike ride,  forty bar-assisted push-ups with lots of left weight shift,  forty steps for Erf with left weight,  forty steps for Elf,  forty v-bar cable rows,  forty leg extensions for Elf,  forty leg curls for Elf,  forty leg curls for Erf,  forty leg extensions for Erf,  tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!
  • Following one more loo trip, Jacinta  tootles us off to Sunny Park  and grabs a trolley for us. We both buy groceries from  Woollies; thanks to Jacinta who lets me sit on the self-serve checkout machine when she's scanning our items.
  • 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.
  • Oops, ooutta time, so super-briefly:
  • Enjoyed TWO big mugs of Earl grey tea sweetened with one  spoonful  of honey for arvo tea and read for one hour.
  • Watched the 6pm news  (Nine's) for the 112TH time. All the things I  like recording are the bottom of   today's second post.
  • Had the normal dinner and returned online but went early to  the loo when Tum Tum started rumbling?? No tummy ache but messy stinky unspeakable; thanks to PIG mum for help  with a knicker change.
  • Toms: Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 2pm. If the weather holds up, I'll go for my 5th hike around Underwood Lake before buying groceries from Coles  for PIG mum plus my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi.
  • Have reminded PIG mum that I need rice for arvo  tea since I'm only getting an Unhappy Meal with an orange juice or dinner!
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
    P.S. Tee hee,  I've managed FIVE posts tonight! XD But will only publish twice toms~

Monday Post 328d

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3223 but   secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owed NINE MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • 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 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.
  • You'd think since it's Winter now I'd @ least get a slice oof dry (unbuttered)  toast with my  breakfast but nope, it's still just one bowl of plain porridge. *sigh* I  also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain 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*
  • After breakfast 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. 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 and buckle my seatbelt. She tootles me off to see Ray for  some  acupuncture and massage.

  • On arrival, I screech @ Ray to put a jumper on; the crazy man's still only wearing a short-sleeved tee! o_O XD

  • After one loo  trip I lie down for some slightly ouchy massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element, yapping unceaselessly @ Ray and repeating multiple syllables several times in her excitement @ getting to yap; my grateful thanks to  Ray who  always replied and kept a conversation  flowing~

  • After one more loo trip, PIG mum tootles us home and I start reading the day's Bible passages until  she summons me for lunch; she cooked yummy fried rice! That  was washed down with one mug of  delicious Chinese tea; after taking the cup over 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.

     

  • At 1:55pm I sit over the loo  for two more tinkles and then Jacinta tootles me off  to B - bbl!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3122 (ha, I'm over three grand XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "It's Counterintuitive' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm  really still owed  online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, me again waking for the pot :P after dearest dad kissed me  goodbye, retucked me back into  bed and went to work @ Uncle Albert's place around 7:45am.
  • Daddy  Bear and I happily  cuddled and snored for about another hour, nature calling once  more around 9am  shortly before noisy PIG mum  begins her daily a-THUMPING  around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with  absolutely nothing bar  the bra strap and laying out the tee before leaving me to  get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Sunday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1446 steps (so promise I'll have cracked 1500 steps before Sunday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Live By Faith'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'The Life-Giving Word' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Remembering   Who  We Are'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:45am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep, since I knew that PIG mum would get very noisy soon!
  • Instead, I fell back that deeply asleep I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo! She helped me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and then spread out the tee for me before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee first 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 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 bowl of plain porridge, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Sheesh, we're one full week into Winter but horrid PIG mum still won't gimme a piece of dry toast for breakfast! *sigh* But thanks to  dearest dad who passed me a corner of his bun; it contained avocado and peanut butter but dad was super-careful and said check before you eat it, since he remembers my nut allergy~ 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?

See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the back seat 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 service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the last cubicle of the normal female toilets (since the disabled and all cubicles have lids closed), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot on the most left.

  • Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

  • Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie, with another sermon from his Apostles' Creed series. This I Believe.

  • Service ended thirteen minutes early today; after another toilet trip, I hiked around to the back and sat down for morning tea. thanks to dearest dad who already had one packet of Arnott's bikkies and one paper cup of sugarless milk tea waiting for me.

  • While everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ some hotpot place and PIG mum went and enjoyed her weekly coffee and gossip session with the other church aunties, dad made me eat @ Hungry Jack's again.  *sigh* Yesterday already marked one whole FORTNIGHT since I last enjoyed a proper meal out. *sigh*

  • Today I had exactly ten chips dipped into some tomato sauce, the smallest chicken burger, like 1/3 an orange juice and several gulps of the disgusting free coffee from Hungry Jacks. Luckily dad lemme take two chomps of his fried chicken burger in exchange for the packet of biscuits that granny Wan gave me, but PIG mum took away and gave to dad!

  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, 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 prolly got a late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD

  • Unsure are we grocery shopping together before going home for lunch with dearest dad.

  • Jacinta's minding me from 2-6pm and taking me to Breathe for physio.

  • Presume we're grocery shopping afterwards before she sees me home and showered.

  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 113TH time, provided I can watch it for the 112TH time tonight!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl,  else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Saturday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1834 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic's from last night's 'Dependable In The Mundane'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Developing A Spiritual Mindset' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Provision" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 111TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call  until 6:35am, 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* Actually, I'd already been awake, but not awake enough to know that I'm awake? 'Twas PIG mum noisily going THUMP THUMP THUMP upstairs that fully woke me!
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, nature calling again around 8:45am. 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*
  • More happily cuddling and snoring from Daddy Bear and me, nature calling once more shortly around 9am just before PIG mum comes too hit me with the eye goo and gimme fifteen more minutes, since I'm getting up once Jane arrives @ 9:30am.
  • Once Jane arrives and taps me, I sit up, use the pot :P for one more tinkle, 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!
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane, who tells me she had her usual breakfast smoothie for her morning meal today.
  • Me, I get my once-weekly fried egg on one slice if toast very lightly spread with avocado but unfortunately without a slice of cheese, since PIG mum was mean and prevented Jane from adding a slice for me. *sigh* I also drink another full cup of water, popped all my usual drugs :P and drank my first mug of white tea with two teaspoonfuls of sugar but was grumpy since Jane couldn't find my big cup. :o(Over breakfast, I happily read for thirty minutes
  • After asking Jane please to gimme (face and both hands) some sunscreen I use the loo for one more tinkle while she shuts and locks windows.  After climbing into the passenger seat of Sarah (the car's license plate reads SAZ), Jane tootles us off to Underwood MarketPlace, parks underground and grabs a trolley for us. Also thanks to Jane who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
  •  Have forgotten what groceries PIG mum wanted but I enjoy shopping with the carers more than the parents since they lemme sit on the self-serve checkout machine. Well, the side where you place the scanned items~
  • The other stop was Sushi Creators where I leant against the counter and Jane ordered one honey chicken sushi roll for me.
  • 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 was two mall mugs of white tea sweetened with two  spoonfuls of sugar and a toasted tuna in tomato and onioon toastie with TWO cheese cut into four squares. 

  • Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Friday Post 329c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3731. But less than five minutes left, so super-briefly:

  • Used loo, watched the news for  the 110TH time, used loo again, ate dinner, returned online and used loo once again @ 8:30pm and once more @ 9pm.
  • Toms: Jane's minding me from 9:30am till 1pm. Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea with  sweetener!
  • Also looking forward to playing table tennis with dad @ church then reading all arvo, since it's only Saturday that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
  • Oh, it's Queensland Day toms!!
  • Anyways, hope  everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^


Friday Post 329b

 Heylo and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3628 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Just A Glimpse Of Heaven' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THREE MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, continuing today's events?

  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before PIG mum begins her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival. When Louiza hasn't arrived by 9:30am, PIG mum immediately gives me fifteen more minutes. I immediately comply, telling PIG mum I'm sure Louiza's stuck in traffic and will arrive soon; just tell her to help me up @ 9:45am. Sure enough, that's what happens! XD
  • I use the pot :P for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and then 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 Louiza, who tells me that she had two fried eggs for breakfast.
  • For my breakfast, PIG mum's saved me one more of those polo buns that I'd helped her make recently! I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain 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 Louiza for turning on Sunrise for my viewing pleasure~
  • Breakfast finished, I call Louiza back and ask her to please gimme some sunscreen. That done, she 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 Louiza's car and she tootles me off to the NAB. There's some traffic meaning I'm a few minutes late.
  • Physio today: Two 10m walk tests (one comfortable pace, one fastest safe), one twelve-minute walk test, lay down for Adam, Ronny and Elaine to assess left limbs for Botox, break for fire drill emergency evacuation,  five rounds standing blaze pods with left weight shift,  two rounds stepping for Elf with minimal left weight shift and three rounds stepping for Erf with lotsa left weight shift. 
  • Afterwards, Louiza tootles me off to Garbo to get my free donut from Donut King for national donut day! After she parks, I ask her to please find where's the Donut King first; she comes back and says you've gotta catch an escalator up, can you? Sure, I reply, I'll just hold the right-side rail.
  • But on arrival, the bloody escalator's OUTTA ORDER!! >< I'm like, what?? Suddenly, some old lady tells me, oh, you can walk to the end and catch the lift up. I say thanks but hike up the stopped escalator anyway, since Louiza's shift ends @ like 1:30pm but I need a shower when I get home.
  • The elevator's bloody long but I like it, reach Donut King and GET MY FREE DONUT!! :D Even better, Louiza loved hers so much (Kenya doesn't have donut shops like Brisbane; you can only buy them from bakeries) she went and bought herself two more - and bought me two more too! :D
  • Back home I take my quickest shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers and washed down with one huge mug of herbal tea.
  • Once Louiza cleaned the bathroom I signed her off with my profuse thanks and byes. Shge's back and taking me to GCCW next Thursday; oh, gotta compose homework!
  • Christina gave Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises; the three recipes we selected for PIG mum to choose from for next Friday all come from the Woolies website!
  • Had arvo tea (one plain cracker, one juicy mandarin with one seed and another huge mug of herbal tea) and happily read for one hour. Today I reached pg. 175 @ 3:47pm and finished pg. 200 @ exactly 4:35pm.
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't  call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down the road and started tipping bins @ 6:35am; 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*

Thursday Post 329d

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 1477. Yup, sorry, not quite 1.5 grand; maybe toms. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

  • After publishing the previous post, I had like fifty minutes to play the newest version of Bejeweled I'd downloaded earlier today! I like this version; the jewels are quite large meaning there's not much eyestrain and I've reached level thirty-eight already! It's called  sth like Jewel Match Puzzle and I look forward to reaching level fifty toms; I know I can coz Louiza's driving me to the NAB for physio and back!~
  • At 9pm I walked myself once more 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:  will hopefully crack 1.5 grand since Louiza's coming @ 8am and taking me to two hours' of physio with Adam. Will remind the CEs to check Ela and Erf to see do I need farther Botox. Personally, I think not (I've only had one single bounce of clonus since the last injections) but I'll leave that decisions to the professionals! XD
  • Louiza will see me home, showered and fed with lunch before leaving @ 2pm then @ 2:30pm Christina's coming to give Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises. Wish I could message her and remind her to bring bubble tea! XD
  • Hoping to read for one-hour afterwards before watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's, since nobody's answered my confused post about why Nine Now's stopped working) for the 110TH time.
  • Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Thursday Post 329c

 Good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1427 (so may not have reached 1.5 grand before tonight ends XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's "I(f Yoou Feel Imprisoned." Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • Happily watched the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 109TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
  • When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:10pm, 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 dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, lotsa soup potato, lotsa soup onion, lotsa soup carrot, lotsa soup tomato and a little of PIG mum's yummy mince. Over dinner I shared with the parents how today marked half a DECADE since that male hospital volunteer played the disability card for me!
  • 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.
  • Anyways, hoopefully bbl after one last loo trip 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 the week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 1320. Unsure will I have reached 1.5 grand before tonight ends ... XD Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

  • Once my most important two hours of the day were up, I used the loo for one tinkle then sat @ the gobbling :P table to read for one hour. Before asking PIG mum for some arvo tea, I finished sharing my Facebook memories; today marks half a DECADE since the wardie played the disability card for me!
  • PIG mum pours me one mug of powdered HK-style milk tea, peels me a mandarin and passes me one plain cracker before heading back upstairs and continuing her arvo nap. While I read, I reached pg. 150 @ 4:48pm, finished arvo tea @ 4:54pm and finished pg. 175 @ 5:23pm.
  • One more tinkle for me before I retrurned

Thursday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1177 steps (ha, I'm over one grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Faith For The Impossible'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Conquer Your Jericho? (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Freedom In God's Love". Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am 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 once more for the pot :P around 9am, just before noisy 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 before going back outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • Actually, PIG mum's going hiking with some church aunty today and it's dearest dad who lets Louiza inside @ 9:30am! She knocks, pushes open the door and says good morning; I'll get you up after fifteen more minutes, okay? Daddy Bear gives one paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw @ her 'shoo!'; Louiza smirks and wisely withdraws, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
  • Just after 900 seconds later, Louiza taps me up, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry  Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who told me that she had two fried eggs for breakfast this morning, the lucky thing.
  • Me, I get one of the polo buns that I helped mother make yesterday for breakfast! Pity it's not   very good.  XD 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*
  • After I asked Louiza to please gimme some sunscreen (both hands and face), she followed me back to the bathroom then returned to the kitchen and washed the breakfast dishes up.  Over the loo proper, 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 wash and drive Era then climb into the passenger seat of Louiza's car. She kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt (as she kindly does both ways) and then she tootles us off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown, finding a side park @ the very end.
  • Following one loo trip, we're walking into the library when Pastor Peter Pie says hi! I didn't see him since he was on my left; he was @ the computer writing his sermon for Sunday!
  • Today I grab Orson Scott Card's Master Alvin and read for one hour, reaching page twenty-five @ 11:48am and stopping @ page thirty-five when Louiza returns from buying groceries for PIG mum.
  • Afterwards, Louiza tootled me home and I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing   Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, Louiza made me a tuna with tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and the inside HEAVILY buttered plus one mug of unsweetened strong English breakfast tea, since she could find neither the powdered HK-style milk tea nor the sweetener. *sigh*
  • At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles before signing Louiza off with my thanks and byes; she's back toms morning! Usually Friday's Jane's shift but she's got some exam~
  • Looking forward to reading for one hour then watching the 6pm news (Seven's) for the 109TH
  • Tonight's ice cream night, yay! Like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all~
  • Toms: Louiza's taking me to the NAB for two hours' physio with Adam. 
  • After she leaves, Christina's coming and giving Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises. Dare I dream that she'll remember my bubble tea? XD
  • Looking forward to reading for one hour then watching the 6pm news for the 110TH time. Hopefully someone can help me fix the 9Now!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,

Wednesday Post 329c

 Good afternoon and potentially one final greeting for today! Em's potential final, final plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 1229. Righteo, potential final, final events for today?

  • While buying groceries today, we bump into Kat pushing a trolley and surprise: she's a complete cold frog, just like me! XD I don't enjoy grocery shopping with the parents since they don't lemme sit on the self-serve checkout machine like the carers do, but hey.
  • Back home I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • When the parents summon me over for lunch, I note down the time then walk myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Lunch was two tiny slices of oven-baked pizza with added toppings (dad added SALMON; tasted strange! XD), two chunks of garlic bread and one delicious mug of Taiwanese tea.
  • After taking the cup 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.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

Wednesday Post 329b

 Heylo   again, good morning again and please excuse the first post; you know I still get too excited whenever I get to post online before midday. XD Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1148 steps (ha, I'm over one thousand steps XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Who Are The Children Of Abraham?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Knowing And Enjoying Your Inheritance' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Power Of Music" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm  really  still owed FORTY-THREE MINUTES online after I get home  from GG tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, for the first time in four days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't  call until  7:55am 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, nature calling once more around 9am, just before noisy 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 to help me exceedingly slightly  with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and the laying out of my tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
  • Once I've gotten myself mostly independently kitted, I call PIG mum to please come and help finish with Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces. When she doesn't respond I sit up, bang the wall and repeat the request; it's nearly 9{:45am and the parents demand I hit the sack @ 9:45pm but if I'm back in bed before twelve hours have passed, I'll feel I've wasted the whole day!  >< *sigh*
  • Still, PIG mum takes her time about it and it's just past 9:55am when I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. *Another sigh* That done, 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 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*
  • 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. 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 walk myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Since PIG mum's still upstairs getting herself ready for today, I read the day's Bible passage first.
  • When  she's finally  ready, I climb into the backseat od her car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do both ways). PIG mum tootles us off down the road to Warrigal  Square.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
