Thursday Post 323c

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ exactly 3900. Nice number, eh? Perhaps I'll  reach 4000 toms! XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

• When dearest dad summoned me for dinner, 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: the delicious oyakudon that I cooked with Ari this arvo, topped with all these vegetables like yummy wombok.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl 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.
• At 9pm I   walk  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: Faith's minding me from 8am till 2pm and taking me  to the NAB for two hours physio with Amr. 
• Since I already cooked with Ari this arvo, once Faith leaves I should be free for the rest of the  day;  looking  forward  to my most important  two hours of the day online, reading A Fortunate Life for one hour and watching the 6pm news for the 185TH time!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

 Heylo again and good evening again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3808 (so won't reach four grand before tonight's out, sorry  XD) but secondly  and way most importantly,  I'm really still owed SIXTEEN MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Righteo, lemme start with Tuesday's events, just briefly?

• Had my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse for lunch then  had UQ physio with Vincente for two hours: Barefoot Elf thirty-five sit-to-stands with left and forward weight shift, more standing reaching card work for Era, five hikes up the slope and back down.
• Wednesday's events, just briefly?
• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:45am~
• Louiza took me to table tennis @ 1:30pm but was stuck majorly in bad traffic all the way home; I thanked her every time I passed another level of Jewel Queen. XD
• Pastor Peter Pie gave me a lift to GG~  Loved the three slices of sausage PIG mum included in the rice leftovers she gave me for dinner!
• Muji started with a prayer for us before she goes to Toowoomba for five/six weeks physio placement!
• Last night, Pastor Peter Pie led everyone through Study 5: Facing Your Thorns and he dropped me home afterwards.
• Now, today, just briefly?
• Louiza minded me from 9:30am till 2pm; we went grocery shopping @ the Underwood MarketPlace Woolies and bought groceries for my cooking adventures with Ari this arvo!
• PIG mum ordered I write out the recipe for Ari and kindly found a lined notebook for me before going out for pool exercises.
• After Ari and I cooked chicken  oyakudon together, PIG mum drove me out to Bupa Optical and we  both collected our new specs from Bupa Optical; Rico was there! Unfortunately PIG mum wouldn't lemme grab any arvo tea from Eight Street (even though I told her I was willing to hike all the way there) but she lemme buy a box of green tea Pocky from Daiso! 
• Got home, did my daily  Bible readings, tootled online then watched the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's)   for the 184TH time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.

 One final good evening and greeting for tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3943. Sorry, not quite four grand; maybe toms. XD Righteo, final,  final events for tonight?

• After another loo trip, PIG mum tootles me home and we share lunch with dearest dad, just one bowl of rice leftovers spooned down with one bowl of soup.
• After taking the bowl  over to  the sink, I walk myself slowly  and safely online and start  reading  the day's Bible passages, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

• Only thirty minutes left, so just  briefly: Jacinta came @ 2pm  and took   me to  Breathe for physio: 1.518km bike ride, forty bar-assissted 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 curls for Elf, forty leg extensions for Erf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Bought groceries with Jacinta @ the Sunny Park Woolies, 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,
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was some fruit, one tasty cracker and TWO big mugs of white tea with  sweetener - Jacinta found where PIG mum had hidden it! Read A Fortunate Life for fifty minutes.
• Used loo for two more tinkles @ 5:55pm then signed Jacinta off with my thanks and byes. She's back Saturday 9:30am till 1/1:30pm.
• Happily watched the 6pm  news bulletin (Nine's)  for  the 182ND time. All the interesting names I  saw while watching the 6pm news (Nine’s, read by Melissa Downes and Joel  Dry) for the 183^RD  time: Pavlich, O’Loughlin, Heinke, Geran, Saiini (heard), Cannon, Sanders, Crisafulli, D’Alessandro, Barnaby (first name), Joyce, Croucher, Hume, O’Neil, Chalmers, Francis, Hadley (heard), Fitzsimons (heard), Greer, Pannetierre, Skip (first name), Miles, Sinclair, Volodomyr (first name, heard), Zelensky (heard), Pang, Langdon, Todd, IIsaiya (first name), Katoa, Nikorima (heard)Ryan, Basterfield, Chester (first name), Jackson, Tunavasa, Misi (first name),Weatherald, McSweeney (heard), Shanto, Djodan, Labuschagne (heard),Campbell (first  name), Graham, Williams,NganTrump, Pullar, Addison, Mookhey, Annrose (first name), Djokovich, Kroehn  Geran, Mousely (heard), Munster, Slater (heard), Bellamy (heard),Heironymus, Tomasi, Federer (heard), Nadal (heard) and McLeod.

Brisbane toms: 13-21.  Mt. Gravatt toms: 10-21. Sunrise: 6:15am Sunset 5:29pm

• Had dinner, drank soup, read for ten more minutes (since I like reading for one hour where possible), used loo for one tinkle,  returned online and used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
• Toms: Peggy's minding me from 9:30am till 4pm. We're buying groceries from  Pinelands Coles plus my  once-weekly  crunchy pork  bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakery and then coming home for lunch before Peggy tootles me off to  the NAB for two hours of physio with Vincente.
• Excitement: dad's taking me  too  see The Odyssey @ like 5:45pm! PIG mum  says I've gotta hike a few stairs to reach the D-BBox seat that shakes; worth it!  Would love dinner out afterwards but   prolly just  coming home for dinner. *sigh* Still, yay for some precious Dadddy-daughter time.  Jacinta warned me today that the movie actually   gets quite bloody vut I'm not scared: dad will protect me.  XD 
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day  toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 323c

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3882 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'He Held Nothing Back' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• After PIG mum helps me with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying the tee out she leaves me  to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee and 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 batthroom 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 slice of dry (unbuttered)  toast very lightly spread with avocado and for some reason the PLATE (not the toast) very lightly sprinkled with salt (no matter, I just licked the plate  clean afterwards 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. 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 she tootles me off to     see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Lol, we arrive that early; he's not even opened his front gate yet! XD

• After it's time, we head inside. I use the loo for  one tinkle then lie down for some @ times ouchy left limb massage and acupuncture. PPIG mum's in her element, yapping ceaselessly @ Ray;  my grateful thanks to him  who  always replied and kept  a conversation flowing. Actually,  PIG mum deserves congratulations too; today she only repeated one syllable thrice and another four times! XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Monday Post 323b

 Good afternoon 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 1449 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily   devotional  topic from last night's 'Why You Give Into  Sexual Sin'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Have A Cooperative Spirit' and fourthly, Our Daily  Bread's devotional topic's 'Plague Of Lies' but fifthly  and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES after I watch  the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 182ND time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once around 12:15am; 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*
• After that, Daddy  Bear and I happily cuddled and snored till  nearly  9am before I  woke again   for the pot! :P Shortly afterwards, PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUJPING around upstairs and soom,  she's let herself into my room  to  hit me   with the eye goo   and give poor Elf  an extremely brief rub since she totally ignored her last night, like she's done for the last 1.5  WEEKS! >< That's alright, Era rubbed her for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep last night though obviously removed the sock  first thing this morning.  XD
• Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 323d

 One final good evening and greeting  for  tonight! Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2848. Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

• Once PIG mum dried my  back and the back of  the  chair  for me, I did  everything else and she didn't feature again 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.
• Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Had our once-weekly dinner out @ Ho Lin Wah, got home, returned online and used loo for one more tinkle @ 9pm.
• Toms: seeing Ray for some acupuncture toms morning then coming home for lunch with dearest  dad before Jacinta takes me to Breathe for physio with Winnie; presuming we'll buy groceries afterwards before coming home for personal  care.
• Hoping to read A Fortunate Life for one hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 182ND time.
• Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^

Sunday Post 323c

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for  Sunday now stands @ 2781. So yay that I'm over  2.5 grand but sorry, I shan't reach three grand before the night's out. XD Anyways, continuing Sunday's events?

• Reading for one hour completed, I went and took a nice hot shower - 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. Actually, I was  done after only 10%, but  happily leaned fully against the right side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling PIG mum back.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
  
  

Sunday Post 323b

 Heylo  again, good evening  and potentially one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential  final, final  plodding total for Sunday now stands @ 2394 and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'The Woman   Who Anointed Jesus'.  Righteo, potential final, final events for tonight?

• After using 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, finish  sharing my Facebook memories  and read A Fortunate Life for one hour.
• After peeling one yummy   banana myself, I also munched one tasty cracker and drank one huge mug of green   tea and happily  read A Fortunate Life for one hour.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Sunday Post 323

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2095 steps (ha, I'm just over two thousand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily  devotional topic from last night's 'What We Were Made For'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Understanding The Kingdom Of God' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Wounds That Build And Heal'. Anyways, events for  today?

• Lol, considering the poor Broncos got FLOGGED last night I'm hardly surprised that nature called partway through the night! >< XD Aside from that, 'twas a sound sleep~
• Following the first daylight pot :P trip around 6:30am,  I immediately tried falling back since I bet that PIG mum would get VERY noisy @ 7am!
• Instead, I cuddled Daddy Bear and fell back that deeply asleep I didn't wake until PIG mum let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo! After she helped me with absolutely  nothing bar the  bra strap and laying out the tops she left 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 returns to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me over 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's one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly  spread with avocado and for some reason the PLATE sprinkled with  salt (hence why I licked the plate afterwards 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. 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.

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 she tootles us off to church, parking near the very end of the grassy park. I haul  myself  up the ramp, use the disabled toilet myself once (yay the lid was up  and the seat down) then grabbed my usual spot in service on the most left.
• Yay I got to stay seated for worship today. I sang everything, plus the harmony for two songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
• Didn't catch the speaker's name but his sermon topic was Where Is Your Cross?
• After service ended seventeen minutes early, I used the disabled loo myself for another tinkle then went with PIG mum to buy some morning tea; fundraising for the upcoming Africa Mission trip! After buying sth I took a seat and PIG mum introduced me to Laurence's dad!
• Whoops less than ten minutes left so super-briefly:
• ESS had lunch @ some steakhouse, PIG mum had her usual coffee and gossip social with her friensa and dad dragged me back to Hungry Jack's for a cheeseburger and like ten chips. *sigh&*
• Got home, used loo for one tinkle, did the daily Bible readings then plopped online.
• Toms: presume I'm seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage, before Jacinta takes me to Breathe for physio.
• She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 6pm; hoping I'll watch the 6pm news for the 182ND time since I don't wanna watch it tonight and hear how the Broncos lost AGAIN! ><" XD
• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead! Cheers, Em. ^^

Saturday Post 323b

 Heylo again,  good evening and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly,  Em's final, final plodding total for Saturday now stands @ 2149 and secondly, Joni's devotional  topic's "Speaking  God's Language." But I penned Dr.  Dr. a letter then started watching the news but   stopped 1/4 way  through when I found out coverage of the Broncos game started @ 7pm! Wolfed dinner down then watched the Broncos get  flogged by the Warriors; 40-6! ><' Cringe* Rang Aunty Lai @ 9pm  and spoke to her for 6:04 and toms it's just church,  definitely nothing  special. Resigned too a pissy bit of   lunch with dad @ Hungry Jack's and don't wanna watch the    news toms night  and read how the Broncos lost AGAIN! ><" Righteo, hopefully   see everyone @ church  toms!
Cheers.
Em. ^^

Saturday Post 323

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard  @ work plodding 1506 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'God Forgives, And Is Still Just'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Money: How You Get It, And Give It' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Living Out God's Love". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, what better way to start the weekend then with my second consecutive awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 6:45am 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; the next time nature calls again  following 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 cuddling and snoring from Daddy Bear and me; PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs my wakeup call to use the pot :P once more. Soon, she's let herself  into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very  brief rub since she'd  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 peeled the sock off first thing this morning! XD
• Since Louiza didn't arrive @ 9:45am, PIG mum immediately gave me fifteen more minutes. I immediately comply telling mother I'm sure Louiza's just stuck in traffic so tell her to get me up @ 9:45am after she comes. Sure enough, that's exactly what happens!  XD
• Once I've counted down from 900 I announce that I'm hungry to Louiza and swing myself over to  the pot :P for one more tinkle. She's inside the bathroom and immediately comes; we get me kitted and yup, she confirms that she was late since she was stuck in traffic along the Ipswich motorway.
• I head over to the 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 table with Louiza. Breakfast's my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado, another full mug 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 A Fortunate Life for thirty minutes first up!
• Reading finished, I ask Louiza please to gimme (face and both hands) some sunscreen then she  walks behind me back to the loo before going and washing the breakfast dishes up.
• After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I climb into the passenger seat of Louiza's car and she tootles us off to Underwood MarketPlace, parking  around the side and grabbing a trolley for us.
• First we buy groceries from Woolies. Like I've said, I don't mind  shopping with carers since they lemme sit on the self-serve checkout  machine.  Wonder why the parents won't?
• We're walking towards Sushi  Creators when the guy  behind the counter looks up, sees me  coming and raises a finger in the air? I  reply with a thumbs up; by the  time we reach the  counter he's already packaged my  sushi and hands it  to Louiza, going "Four dollars." Louiza looks @ me, asking have you ordered yet? I mime our little conversation;   she laughs and pays the guy.    XD
• Back home, I take 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. At 12:25pm I asked Louiza to please massage Ela but she dithered around washing dishes before very gently massaging he for like ten minutes.
• At 12:55pm I sat over the loo once more for two tinkles then signed Louiza off with my thanks and byes. She's back next Thursday 9:30am till 1pm/thereabouts.
• Instead of reading all  arvo to reach three hours I'm gonna pen a long letter to  Dr. Dr. Tai; she turned FIFTY like eight days ago hence why I bought her a proper '50' card today!
• Have reminded the parents to gimme dinner @ 6pm while I'm watching the news coz the Broncos are playing @ 7!
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Resigned to a bite of lunch with dad @ Hungry Jack's then a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh*But should  the Broncos win tonight; I'm definitely reading match report  after match  report toms  arvo   and basking in their glory! XD
• Anyways, hopefully bbl,   else looking forward to seeing everyone  @ church  toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
  P.S.

• 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: Louiza's minding me from 9:30am till 1pm.Going to buy my honeychicken sushi roll for arvo tea with  her plus any groceries PIG mum wants but may not get to play table tennis @ church  with dad since there's some kinda fundraising thing happening for the Kenya mission trip? Looking forward to my  three big mugs of  white tea with sweetener and another bowl of the yummy pasta and sausage dish and planning to start reading  A Fortunate Life for three hours! Righteo,  hope everyone has a lovely weekend ahead~

 Good evening again! Em's new plodding total for Friday now stands @ 4190. Sweet I'm  over four grand;  that doesn't happen too often! XD Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

• When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:15pm 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, leftover pasta and chicken from the cooking I did with  Ari yesterday, lotsa broccolini, lotsa soup carrot, two/three huge chunks of yucky soup pumpkin, two chunks of soup   pork and two tasty leftover slices of  dad's delicious duck.
• Dinner was spooned down with one bowlful of soup; after taking the bowl over to  the sick 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 @ 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,

 Heyloo again, good evening  and potentially one final greeting  for tonight! Firstly, Em's potential  final, final plodding total for Friday now stands @ 3904 (so  hoping I'll reach 4000 before tonight ends! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'A Picture Of God's Grace". Righteo, potential final, final events for Friday?

• Once I'd used up  the most important two hours of   my day,  I used the loo for one tinkle then sat down for arvo tea, peeling myself one yummy banana, munching one yummy tasty  cracker and drinking one huge mug of  herbal tea.  Dearest dad came home from his outing and showed me photos of the hike!
• Used the loo for one more tinkle before returning online and watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 181ST time. All the things I like recording are @ the bottom of the previous post.
• Righteo, hopefully  bbl   after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Friday Post 323

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3905 steps (so will hit   four grand today;    sweet XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Three Examples Of How Faith Fulfils Good Resolves'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Let's Tell The Whole World  About Jesus" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'One Worthy Of Worship'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, what better way to end the week then with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road to  tip bins and woke me; after  one pot :P  trip I immediately did the bed exercises Winnie  taught me   to prevent further back  pain then 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 cuddled and snored, me again waking for the pot :P when dearest dad came to kiss me bye and retuck me back into bed before going hiking with other church uncles!
• Daddy Bear and I  happily continued cuddling  and snoring, nature  calling once more around 9am just before noisy PIG mum began 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 to await Rebecca's mum, only  to reappear @ 9:01am   and gimme fifteen more minutes since Rebecca hadn't arrived yet! I immediately comply and tell PIG mum to ask Rebecca to help me up @ 9:15am after she arrives coz she's prolly stuck in traffic. Sure enough, that's exactly what happens! XD
• After Rebecca taps me up @ 9:15am, I use the pot :P  for two more tinkles and discover that she was stuck in traffic along the Ipswich motorway on-ramp. We  get me kitted, I head over to the  bathroom and brush teeth, then sit over the loo for one tinkle before washing and drying Era then heading out to the gobbling :P table with Rebecca.
• Breakfast is  one slice of dry (unbuttered)  toast spread with avocado and lightly   sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one  full mug of water. PIG mum kindly turns on  Sunrise for my  viewing pleasure, and 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  summon Rebecca to please gimme some sunscreen then she walks behind  me back to  the bathroom  before returning to the kitchen and washing up  the breakfast dishes. 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 Rebecca's car  and she tootles me off to the NAB.
• At UQ, I   use the toilet for one tinkle then sit in the waiting  room with the other clients nd chat until Amar (sp? Hammer without the 'h') comes for me.
• Physio  today: Thirty sit-to-stands with left and forward weight shift for Barefoot Elf sitting with less thigh support, standing reaching for Ela stacking cones with more left and forward weight shift and walked one fast lap around the great court!
• After one more loo  trip, Rebecca tootles me not home but first    to   the Logan North library  to pickup the new book club novel.
• Only there aren't  any hard copies  left! Instead, some male librarian teaches me how to download and use Libby meaning I've got a digital copy of the book! 
• Back home,  I take 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  was one  delicious bowl  of the pasta I'd cooked with  Ari  yesterday plus one unsweetened mug of English breakfast  tea with milk. Rebecca cleaned the bathroom then left immediately; she's still got a 4-8pm shift tonight! Mostly I just  enjoyed eating with full mouthfuls. XD
• Lunch finished, I took the bowl to  the sink, used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly  and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• After noting down what I did for physio today I 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  and munch the arvo tea PIG mum kindly left me before returning online and watching the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 181ST time.
• Toms: Louiza's minding  me 9:30am till 1pm; presuming we're buying my arvo tea sushi plus whatever groceries PIG mum wants from Woolies @ Underwood MarketPlace before coming home for a shower and lunch  (hopefully  another bowl  of that delicious pasta I  cooked with Ari yesterday) then I might play table tennis with  dad @ church. Then again, maybe not since dad says there's some Kenya mission trip fundraising thing going on! Anyhow, I'm looking forward to  my three big mugs of white tea with sweetener and plan to read the new book club novel for three hours!
• Anyways, hopefully  bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^

Thursday Post 323

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2264 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'My Soul Thirsts For God'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Evaluate Your  Expectations'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Jesus' Witness" and fifthly Joni's devotional topic's "A Heart Of Flesh but sixthly  and way most importantly, I've not been online for  two  hours until  10:01pm; meaning should PIG mum boot me off to bed  @ 9:45pm I'm really still owed SIXTEEN MINUTES online!! *sigh* Anyways, events for today?

• • Grr, nature ruined the awesome sleep streak I'd just started! >< Never mind, I was prolly too excited about my first proper meal out in one MONTH tonight. *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, me waking again for the pot :P when PIG mum wakes me with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor  foot last night. That's fine; Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to sleep last night but obviously peeled the sock off first thing this morning! XD
  • When Louiza doesn't arrive @ 8am  PIG mum immediately opens the door  saying fifteen more minutes; I immediately comply but tell her bet Louiza's just stuck in traffic; just tell her to help me up @ 8:15pm after she arrives. Sure enough, that's exactly what happens! XD
  • When Louiza taps me up @ 8:15am, I sit  up, say good morning then used the pot :P for three more tinkles. Sure enough; Louiza was delayed in traffic: stuck along the Ipswich motorway, actually! 
  • We get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth and then  sit over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying  Era, I head out to  the gobbling  :P  table with Louiza, telling her off for not eating breakfast  this morning and informing her that she would buy herself some breakfast after she bought groceries for PIG mum while I was attending GCCW. XD
  • Breakfast was prolly one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly  smeared with    avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Thanks to Louiza who turns Sunrise on for my  viewing pleasure and 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, Louiza covers my face and both hands with sunscreen then follows me back to  the bathroom before returning  to  the kitchen and washing the breakfast stuff up. 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 passenger seat of Louiza's car and she tootles me off to GCCW! Thanks to her who kindly helped me with my seatbelt both ways and since we were really stuck along Logan Rd., we didn't arrive till like 9:29am hence why I skipped the arrival toilet trip and just headed straight into Meeting Room One.
  • Ten attended: Alison was here! Tammy went with me  once to  the toilet @ morning  tea and Nancy got morning tea  for me: there was cake and she not only  gave me  seconds but  left me the last slice! Only the meeting ended ten minutes early,  everyone cleared out really fast and then someone switched  off the light  and I  was left in the dark! ><  XD
  • Less than fifteen minutes left,  so super-briefly:
  • Got home, showered and had a tuna in tomato and onion with cheese toastie for  lunch.
  • Rebecca took me  to Wong's for  our book club dinner! Thirteen  attended and I had that   set that  came with  two spring rolls, some sweet and sour pork and some braised chicken with two  prawns; I picked that and the celery out. XD I also finished eating last but that was to  be expected. XD Next month we're reading A Fortunate Life? Maybe that's by  A.B. Facey and about Peekay the boxer?
  • Rebecca tootled me home; she's back toms @ 8am till 2pm~
  • Yup toms I've got  NAB physio for two hours but don't have OT since Ari already cooked with me this arvo! Will eat what we cooked this arvo for lunch toms~
  • Looking forward to reading the new book club novel  for one hour and watching the 6pm news for  the 181ST time.
  • Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing end to the week  toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
