Wednesday Post 228b

Heylo again, good afternoon again, and potentially one final greeting for Wednesday! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for today now stands @ 1729. anyways, let’s start with yesterday’s events first!

-        When someone arrived, I stayed online till 4:45pm then took my quickest possible shower – I washed and rinsed my hair today.

-        After flipping the nice warm water off, I mostly dried myself (someone only ever helps with my back and Era), mostly creamed myself (again, someone only ever helps with my back and Era) then mostly rekitted myself 9thanks to someone who helped with Elf’s AFO, my bra strap and both laces).

-        I hung my towel up, sat for one tinkle over the loo, washed and dried Era then headed out to the gobbling :P table. Thanks to someone who lemme drink a white tea with two sugars; I munched a banana.

-        At 5:30, we set out for Toastmasters~ Getting stuck slightly in traffic, I got to hear the first story from Seven’s 6pm news, simulcast on 96.5FM.

-        As always, Toastmasters was great fun! Lol, I’d clean forgotten that I was Warm-Up Master last night until Rennie (the Toastmaster) came along and reminded me, but that wasn’t a problem coz she even gave me the question she wanted me to ask!

-        Afterwards, someone took me once more to the loo then tootled me home. Last night, she left two minutes early.

-        I feel super-lucky that I managed to wolf the entire Happy Meal down by myself before dad came to demand some. XD Actually, PIG mum came and bit my head off (not literally, of course XD) when idiot Ela knocked and spilled my orange juice everywhere. Tough, she’ll haveta be prepared for that, if she demands Ela sit on the table whenever I’m sitting down. XD

-        But repeat thew usual nightly routine, zzz~

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 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 continued our happy snorings together, me waking and using the pot :P once more when dearest dad came to kiss me bye before leaving for work @ 7:45am.

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Tuesday Post 177

Good afternoon! Firstly, my final, final plodding total for Monday was actually 4093 (Uncle Colbert came over and watched sixty minutes of the Four Nations grand final with me!); secondly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding 1315 steps and thirdly, TWFT topic’s The Power of One (10 but fourthly and way most importantly, I’m still owed ONE HOUR and FIFTEEN MINUTES online after I get home from Toastmasters tonight!!! >< *sigh* But just noting down that I enjoyed an awesome sleep last night (bid my teddy sweet dreams, fell asleep and didn’t wake until 5:25am), then went with PIG mum all the way to Orthotic Solutions to get new straps for my AFO. Had lunch @ Toowong Village (chicken kaarage rice for me, sweet chilli chicken rice for her0 before going to the NAB for upper limb clinic with Daisy. Physio today: wrist flexion and extension, supernation and pronation, reaching both seated and standing bimanual task rolling ball, gym ball work. Someone’s here now, we’re hitting Toastmasters tonight, so fingers crossed PIG mum lets me buy some dinner back from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I ate @ LEAST two DECADES ago! Will prolly buy groceries with PIG mum toms, before Aunty Deana comes to mind me from 12:30pm till 3:30pm. Someone’s coming back to mind me from 4pm till 6pm and best of all, it’s ice cream night toms night; like I always say, a very little’s better than none @ all! Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Monday Post 177d

Potentially one final greeting for Monday! Em’s potential final, final plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3575. ha, just over 3.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Monday?

-        When Kim announced her arrival precisely @ 4pm, I walk myself slowly and safely to the front door and let her in, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-        So a nice warm shower for me – I wash and rinse my own hair today. I also sing 29% of my shorter second-favourite song softly, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.

-        I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice warm water off, mostly dried myself (thanks to Kim who helped me dry my back, Era and both legs), mostly creamed myself (again, thanks to Kim who helped me cream my back, Era and both calves) then mostly rekitted myself (thanks to Kim who kindly helped with EWrf’s sock, Elf’s AFO and both shoelaces). Then I went over to the loo, and after asking Kim to please pass me one mug of water, did a stinky unspeakable.

-        After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea. Pity Kim won’t lemme drink a white tea with two sugars but oh well. We drink green tea; I also munch one banana and one kiwi then sit and happily read my book club novel for forty-five minutes. I reach page fifty @ 150 @ 5:40pm, BTW.

-        After watching the sports report together, Kim takes me once more to the loo for two tinkles. She’s back Thursday arvo and says she’ll really bring me some colouring-in pencils so I can start filling in the minion colouring-in book she bought me when we hit Queen St. Mall last Thursday!

-        I prolly won’t return online tonight coz I’m planning to watch the Four Nations final that PIG mum kindly taped for me last night/this morning. Too bad Uncle Colbert can’t come watch the game with me; he’s really busy.

-        Toms: heading all the way back to Orthotic Solutions to get my AFO straps fixed! Lol, apparently I’m already using heavy-duty ones; can you get heavier duty/heaviest duty?? XD

-        Hopefully PIG mum’ll let us have lunch @ Toowong Village before I have UQ physio; Ela’s 1.5hr session @ the NAB. Depends if she’s willing to drive all the way back home then back out to UQ.

-        Someone’s coming to mind me from 4pm; we’re hitting Toastmasters together! So fingers crossed PIG mum’ll lemme buy some dinner back from Maccas; never mind that Happy Meals were what I had @ accas @ least two DECADES ago!

-        Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

Cheers,

Em. ^^

Monday Post 177c

Good afternoon again! Firstly, Em’s new plodding total for Monday now stands @ 3296 but secondly and way more importantly, I’m still owed fifty-seven minutes ONLINE AFTER Kim leaves from minding me for two hours!!! Righteo, continuing events for Monday?

-        Daddy Bear and I snuggled and snored; when dearest dad came to kiss me bye before leaving for work I used the pot :P once more. While waiting for him to leave, I silently, slowly but most hatefully sang like 15% of my newest favourite song in my head, closing both eyes for all the important numbers.

-        More cuddlings and snorings for Daddy Bear for I after dearest dad leaves. I wake once more for the pot :P around one hour later and not long after that, I hear PIG mum a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she’s inside my room, hitting me with some eye goo, helping me very slightly with a bra then leaving me to get myself mostly kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes.

-        PIG mum returns to help with Elf’s AFO and to set me on shoelace tying practice. I don’t really mind, coz I’m seated and can concentrate.

I did mind, however, when I had to let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sat over the loo for two tinkles, also fully leaning against the side rail and 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*

After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table. Breakfast is around one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of plain (unbuttered) toast thrown into it, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P (which I had to let horrid PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela hold onto the bottle for before Era could unscrew and rescrew the lid to, but again I didn’t really mind coz I was seated and could concentrate) and one small half-mouthful of milk. Over breakfast, I also finished 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!

-        Breakfast over, I let PIG mum gleefully FORCE L me to walk out to  the 4WD and she tootles me off to see Uncle Tom the Chinese herbalist. We listen to 97.3FM all day and of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt all day, too. Oh, and today Era helps Ela stretch for thirty minutes before Ela opens and closes her palm @ least 200x, holding each for a count of five.

-        At Uncle Tom’s, after the initial consultation (he checks both wrists for a pulse, gets Ela to touch my scalp, gets me to poke out my tongue, etc.) I get some left limb massage and acupuncture from him. Funnily enough, today PIG mum doesn’t get the chance to yap incessantly like she almost always does; today Uncle Tom regales us with the story of the work Christmas party he recently attended!

-        Afterwards, PIG mum and I buy Subway for lunch before returning home. Well, she buys while I browse the day’s Courier Mail. No, wait! We actually eat in-sore~

-        Back home, I use the loo once  then walk myself back out to the Camry, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

-         PIG mum tootles me off to see Vincent the physio for my weekly torture session. Physio today: three attempts before staying briefly seated, reaching for Ela and Era, bending to ground to retrieve an object @ least eight times, sitting ‘properly’ like twelve times.

-        Our last stop before heading home: Runcorn Plaza’s IGA to buy milk and bananas.

-        Back home, I use the loo once then 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.

-        Argh, then 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

Cheers,

Em. ^^

~ I used the pot :P once last night around 12:40am, and once more around 6:35am, before spending 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.
