Saturday Post 179

Good afternoon! Firstly, from 1pm I’ve only been hard @ work plodding 445 steps (obviously I haven’t left the house today) and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘The Double Standard’. Anyways, events for today?

~ Yay, 4^th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 7:15am, when the parents starting banging around downstairs preparing breakfast, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes until 7:25am starting 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*

- When PIG mum left for work @ 7:30am, ahe hit me with some eye goo first. After she’d left and dearest dad had tucked Daddy Bear and I back into bed, I spent another ten minutes continue 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 conned 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*

- Huge thanks to dearest dad who lemme sleep this morning and didn’t do anything noisy; I honestly slept straight through till 9:55am, when Besta let herself in, knocked on my door and said, “Good morning, Emily!” I used Daddy Bear to nod good morning @ her and she immediately got the idea, said, “Okay, fifteen more minutes,” and let us be.

- When she came back in, I swung myself over to the pot :P once more for three tinkles and immediately told her about my newest dream!

- After Besta got me kitted, we went over to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth. Thanks to Besta who squirted some toothpaste for me; Ela enjoyed her once weekly reprieve.

That done, I sit over the loo for one more tinkle, also fully leaning 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, ihead out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, where dad has left me half an egg and DUCK sandwich for breakfast! Besta makes me one mug of tea, white and two, and kindly leaves the teabag in for me to suck. XD

-        My main happiness is getting to read My Sister’s Keeper for one whole hour! Today I reach pg. fifty @ 11:05am and page seventy @11:45am. Whilst I read, Besta gently massages Ela for about forty-five minutes (even though she starts @ 11am), taking frequent breaks to drink coffee and flip television channels.

-        At midday, Besta takes me to the loo for one tinkle. Back @ the gobbling :P table, I ring Aunty Lai, who’s staying @ Aunty Nga’s while her poor fractured arm’s still casted. She tells me that Aunty nga’s in China working right now, and won’t be back till next week.

-        Besta kindly makes me one warm mug of Milo, which I drink while I happily read for like another thirty minutes while she cooks me some yummy fried rice for lunch.

-        At 12:55pm, Besta takes me once more to the loo for two tinkles, before leaving me with one bowl of fried rice for lunch and another mug of white tea, sweetened with two sugars. I eat and happily continue reading after she’s gone, reaching pg. 125 @ 1:45pm.

-        Lunch done, I walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        At 1:50pm, I take myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back for two tinkles, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Kim’s coming to mind me from 4pm till 6pm today.

-        Fingers crossed PIG mum’ll take me out to Warrigal Square for dinner tonight! Dad’s got fellowship with all the other church brothers.

-        I’m planning to watch the last Harry Potter movie tonight; it’s airing @ 8:45pm!

-        Toms: just church, nothing special. Fingers crossed the parents will lemme out for lunch with other church peoples afterwards, coz I don’t have any plans for the arvo and will prolly just be staring @ the computer until PIG mum tumbles down from pigland and orders that I shower.

-        So hopefully bbl after Kim’s gone, else hope to see everyone @ church toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 229c

Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, the final, final spam count for the week’s now 116 and secondly, my final, final plodding total for Friday’s now 3939. hey, nice number. XD Anyways, final, final events for tonight?

-        After finishing the previous post and reading a daily devotion Pastor Grace recommended me, I took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo and back, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total from me, coz I’m not going out. Besta’s coming to mind me from 10am till 1pm (will try and remember not to chat with her too much while I’m over the pot :P coz I’m hoping to read My Sister’s keeper for ages toms!) then Kim’s doing the same from 4pm till 6pm. Think dad’s got fellowship @ night … must try and persuade PIG mum to take me out to Warrigal Square for dinner with her! Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 229b

Heylo again and good evening! Em’s new final plodding total for today now stands @ 3875. anyways, continuing tonight’s events?

-        Alas the moment dad came home, he demanded I use the bloody cross trainer for him. *sigh*

-        Only when I make my way over to the cross trainer, I’m directed instead to the gobbling :P table by PIG mum! See, dad hasn’t finished cooking dinner yet; instead of letting me continue my most important two hours of the day online, I instead haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela do 30+ minutes of stupid exercises for her. Actually, I reckon the hardest part isn’t Ela completing the exercises, it’s that PIG mum demands I sit up straight and won’t lemme lean against the backrest.

-        Seriously, what motivation’s there for Ela to do those stupid exercises for her, when I know that afterwards, I’ll haveta let the parents gleefully FORCE L me to use the bloody cross trainer for them? Well, I actually went like 825 steps on that stupid thing, and will most definitely be singing myself to sleep tonight, SCREW counting! >< *sigh*

-        PIG mum helped me change my tee afterwards, then left me to continue with the rest while she headed upstairs to shower. I complied, but while I did so, I continuously sang my newest second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, closing the left eye for all the important numbers.

-        Dinner afterwards: the yummy rice, lotsa icky bitter vegetable, one small chunk of tofu, one wee slice of tasteless soup pork and one tiny morsel of BBQ pork, which I saved for last, of course.

-        Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of bitter vegetable and pork soup, before I 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.

-        Anyways, nature’s calling now, so fingers crossed I can brb after one more loo trip with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Friday Post 229

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 2853 steps today; secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘Be Prepared’ and thirdly, the spam count for the week’s 112. anyways, events for today?

~ Yay, third consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:35am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:45am starting 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 cuddled and snored, me waking to use the pot :p once more one hour later when dearest dad came to kiss me bye before leaving for work.

-        More snorings for d\Daddy Bear and I, until PIG mum started A-STOMPING around upstairs and wakes me. One more pot :P trip for me, then.

-        After PIG mum hits me with the eye goo, she helps me very slightly with a bra then leaves me to get myself mostly independently kitted. I give myself fifteen more minutes first, but accidentally fall back asleep instead! XD

-        After PIG mum helps with Elf’s AFO, she sets me on shoelace tying practice. I don’t really mind, coz I’m seated and can fully concentrate.

-        That done, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk next door to brush teeth (poor Ela). Afterwards, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coz I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable. Instead, I wash and dry Era before walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

Breakfast’s around one bowl of cereal with one slice of plain (unbuttered) toast ripped into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also continue 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 conned 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 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 also 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!

-        That all done, I wash and dry both hands before letting PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the Camry, where she tootles me off to UQ for physio. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we also listen to 97.3FM all day, too. Today, Era helps Ela stretch for forty-five minutes, before Ela opens and closes her palm 300 times, holding each for a count of five.

-        Physio today: mat work: two and one point kneeling, getting up from floor eight times, ten sit-to-stands with weightshifting and stepping for both feet inside the parallel bars. When we leave, I bid Peter Wilson (Andrew’s taxi driver) a very Merry Christmas, and also offer my congrats to Andrew coz today I saw him walking for the first time without being held up by the hoist! Ethan was walking with him; I’ve always thought Ethan to be like Uncle Colbert’s thin build but no, he’s actually quite buff! XD

-        After one more loo trip, I munch half a chicken toastie while PIG mum tootrles me off to see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage.

-        At her place, I visit the loo again then relax for the comfy massage. I have the chance only to ask Aunty Ann how her week was before PIG mum wolfs down her half of the sandwich, rushes inside and immediately bags all the conversation. XD Seriously: I’m silent, Aunty Ann makes affirmative sounds or short comments, and PIG mum just YAPS. XD

-        Afterwards, I visit the loo once more, sit for a mug of water then say my thanks and byes to Aunty Ann. I’m not seeing her for a massage next week, coz Aunty Sally’s come visiting from Canada!

-        PIG mum tootles me home and I’m ready to begin my most important two hours online, but no, instead I haveta let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk outside and let her gleefully force mostly poor Ela take down the day’s washing; argh, I HATES standing practice! ><

-        Luckily, PIG mum keeps her word and allows me back inside when Aunty Lucia arrives. I head into the bathroom for my nice warm shower – I wash my own hair, but thanks to Aunty Lucia who rinses it out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

-        I have one tinkle before I flip the nice warm water off, get dried, very lightly creamed and rekitted, before letting Aunty Lucia Force me to walk back outside to the gobbling :p table for arvo tea.

-        Oh, I forgot to note that after I saw Aunty Ann for my comfy massage, PIG mum and I went to Calamvale Central to buy milk (dad drinks light milk now, too!) and she kindly lemme buy a roll of sushi for arvo tea, too! I chose honey mustard chicken~

-        Yup, that was my arvo tea, plus one mug of green tea. Zero thanks to PIG mum who sliced the sushi roll up into pieces and gleefully forced poor Ela to feed me them, but I didn’t really mind coz (1) I was seated and could concentrate and (2) Ela did so well she’d finished before Aunty Lucia had done cleaning the bathroom, meaning PIG mum didn’t get the chance to show off to Aunty Lucia how much power she has over me. Ha. XD

-        If Aunty Lucia was like Aunty Kitty, she would have gotten to leave ten minutes early but like PIG mum, that woman just enjoys yapping too much! XD Today she was telling PIG mum and I about her experiences with acupuncture.

-        At 5pm, I made my way slowly and safely to the loo and back for two tinkles, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. Thankfully, PIG mum gets the idea and finally lets poor Aunty Lucia leave. XD

-        Toms: expect a super-pissy plodding total from me coz I’m not going out. Besta’s coming to mind me from 10am till 1pm (oh, I haveta tell her about the new dream I had this morning! PIG mum and I had to drive out somewhere to find sth! I’m not sure what it was, but it’s a bad omen for our poor 4WD that my dream used the red Camry instead of him, our grey Subaru. XD) then Kim’s coming to do the same from 4pm till 6pm. Fingers crossed she’ll bring me her colouring-in pencils again! Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Thursday Post 229c

Good evening again and one final greeting for tonight! Em’s final, final plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 4021. Ha, I’m just over four grand. XD Righteo, final, final events for tonight?

-        I usually visit the loo once more @ 9pm but tonight, @ 8:40pm, dad says it’s cake time! So I bring forward my final loo trip and use the loo once before walking myself slowly and safely to join Aunty A and the parents @ the gobbling :P table, lways rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Well, Aunty A likes red bean; that’s why PIG mum picked a red bean cake for her! Never mind that I’m not really a fan of red bean; dad likes red bean too~

-        So we sang her the happy birthday song, stood and posed for photos then ate cake. Aunty A cut me a wee thin slice~

-        Turns out Kim had done Elf’s AFO straps too tight; PIG mum defootweared (I’m creating words XD) Elf and immediately forced me on a range of foot exercises for her. Alas, then she started bitching something almighty about my posture, and even invited Aunty A to join in! >< Never mind, I understand they’re doing this in my best interests. *sigh*

-        After PIG mum put Elf’s footwear back on, I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again and always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        Toms: my final UQ NAB physio session with Morgan! I’ve already asked PIG mum to please bring chocolate for him and Daisy; will haveta remind her again tonight and toms morning.

-        Will presumably see Aunty Ann for a comfy massage so will doubtless munch half a toastie for lunch while Aunty PIG mum’s driving us to Aunty Ann’s place. Fingers crossed I’ll get to ask Aunty Ann about her week before PIG mum scoffs down her half of the sandwich, races into the room then takes over the entire conversation! XD

-        Will remember that Aunty Lucia may be late in coming to mind me for one hour toms arvo. Hey, as long as she comes and I get to shower, I’m not fussed.

-        Righteo, hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Thursday Post 229b

Heylo again and good evening! Em’s new plodding total for Thursday now stands @ 3847. Anyways, continuing events for tonight?

-        When dearest dad came home, he was immediately saying I’d haveta let him gleefully FORCE L me to walk on the bloody cross trainer for him. Luckily, he got distracted whipping up Aunty A’s dinner and forgot, phew. XD

-        When Aunty A announced her arrival, I walked myself slowly and safely to the front door, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. After I’d closed the garage door, I walked over to where she was standing by the sofa checking her mobile, gave her a massive hug and said, “Happy birthday!” before whispering, “Are you (age)?’ See, I’d bought an aged birthday card to her from Daiso, and I wanted to double check I’d chosen the right age! Phew, I had. XD

-        When the parents called dinner, I used the loo once myself first before walking myself slowly and safely to join them and Aunty A @ the dinner table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        In honour of Aunty A, tonight we ate Peking duck! That was with the yummy rice, losa icky bitter vegetable, some tofu and some barramundi.

-        Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of vegie soup before 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 final loo trip @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what’s happening toms, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week on Friday!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Thursday Post 229

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 3656 steps today and secondly, TWFT topic’s “God Knows ‘The Purpose’ Of Your Life’ but thirdly and way most importantly, I’m still owed  TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTESonline afterwards!!! Anyways, events for today?

~Yay, 2^nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 6:20am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:30am 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 cuddle and resume our happy snorings together, me waking once more for the pot :P when nature called about one hour later.

-        Not long after that, PIG mum comes to hit me with the eye goo and to help me slightly with not only a bra but a tee also, coz dearest dad hasn’t come to kiss me bye yet. Score~

-        After giving myself fifteen more minutes, I use the pot :P once more then get myself mostly independently kitted. PIG mum comes back to help with Elf’s AFO and both laces (because she doesn’t wanna be late for work; I’ll prolly be tying them with Kim this arvo) before I let her gleefully FORCE L me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Afterwards, I 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 like half a bowl of cereal with one chunk of unbuttered bread torn into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one lil teacup of milk that I haveta pour for myself coz PIG mum’s already gone upstairs to get herself ready for work. No probs, I get the milk and sit back down before pouring it. No problem. Over breakfast, I also continue 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 conned 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 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!

-        Once Kim arrives, I get into the Camry and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my fortnightly shopping trip! Alas, all the disabled parking spots have already been taken; Kim ends up parking right @ the very back. *sigh*

-        One loo trip for me, Kim grabs Feist’s ‘A Kingdom Besieged’ for me (it’s on the bottom row of shelves; I’m not confident that I could grab one without falling over when I straightened up) and I happily read that softly out aloud for about one hour. Before we leave, I also update on Facebook~

-        One more loo trip for me, then we begin all the shopping PIG mum has instructed us to complete for her.

-        Our first stop’s Woolies; Kim and Era push a trolley. Kim buys herself some stuff too.

-        Then we catch the lift and head upstairs to Coles, where we buy more stuff. Nut bars, peanuts, tuna … that’s all I can remember!

-        Our last stop’s Daiso, where I buy a birthday card for Aunty A!

-        At food court, I sit down and Kim goes to put our groceries in the car. While she’s gone; the Lungs arrive for lunch.

-        Lol, today they all order from Excellent kitchen; while I buy a kebab. I thought all extras cost the same but turns out no: pineapple’s only seventy cents but cheese costs one dollar! The serving lady mustn’t have heard when I asked for pineapple (I didn’t have enough for cheese) coz she gave me both but when she tried to charge me for it, I was like, “Um, I’ve only got that much, but not sure how you can pick the cheese out of the kebab?” In the end, I got it for free. XD

-        Over lunch, we just chat. Pastor Chris says this morning, he had morning tea with Aggie!

-        Pastor Chris and Naomi left first and went grocery shopping; Pastor Grace chatted with Kim and i. she says she originally didn’t wanna do children’s ministry but God closed all other avenues for her.

-        We chatted for so long I only had time for my quickest possible shower before Kim left! I’m just thankful for my one day off from having to practise tying shoelaces~

-        After Kim left, 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.

-        When PIG mum announced her safe arrival back home, I walk myself slowly and safely to the front door, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        For arvo tea, I let her nab half my yummy potato and bacon bun. We both drink one mug of Chinese tea.

-        Afterwards, I sneak my mobile into the bathroom and stay seated over the loo for the full five tinkles, playing Candy Crush. XD

-        Then I wash and dry Era and walk 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.

-        Aunty A’s coming over for her birthday dinner tonight! I offered to shout her out for dinner; dunno why she didn’t take it. XD

-        Toms: late morning UQ physio with Morgan; it’s our last together! Must remember to remind PIG mum to please bring chocolate for him and Daisy.

-        Am I seeing Aunty Ann for a massage afterwards? If so, will doubtless have half a toasted sandwich for lunch while PIG mum’s driving.

-        Aunty Lucia’s coming to mind me for one hour @ 4pm, but she rang today saying that she’ll be late. No matter, as long as she comes and I can shower!

-        So hopefully bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing end to their week toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

P.S. Oh, did I say? Next fortnight, Kim says she’ll take me to take a photo with Santa! :D
