Thursday Post 489c

 Good evening2 again! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for tonight now stands @ 2702 (See? Said I'd crack 2.5 grand! XD) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'No Longer A Slave To Sin." Anyways, continuing tonight's events?

  • When nature called, I walked myself slowly and safely to the loo for one tinkle and back during the first ad   break, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • After the news ended, I called out to PIG mum please summon me when dinner's ready and then immediately started on next fortnight's GCCW homework!
  • When PIG mum summoned me over for dinner @ 7:26pm, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked 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.
  • Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa dearest dad's home-grown hairy melon, lotsa little tong vegetable/some other vegetable, four lil slices of yummy pork and one delicious slice of the duck dearest dad had cooked for Aunty Alex recently.
  • 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, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
  • Will haveta let PIG  mum gleefully force poor Ela on one set of FitMi exercises @ 8:30pm. *sigh*
  • 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 Friday else wishing everyone a smashing end to their week toms!
    Cheers,
    Em.  ^^

Thursday Post 489

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2166 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'God Works For You'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Can Learn To Love' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Love Worthy Of Our Life'. Anyways, events for today?

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the passenger seat of Karina's car and she tootles me off to GCCW. Thanks muchly to her who helps me with my seatbelt both ways.
  • Less that fifteen minutes left, so just very briefly: 
  • Attended GCCW: twelve attendees today, Anita brought cake and our next homework's revenge.
  • Got home for a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina 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 yummy tomato and onion sandwich with one slice of cheese plus one packet of powdered HK-style milk tea.
  • Signed Karina off with my thanks and byes @ like 1:15pm. She's back same time next Thursday.
  • Once I've used  up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle, start rereading the Philippa Gregory novel and wait for PIG mum to gimme arvo tea.
  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 67TH time!
  • Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I  always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
  • Toms: it's my Freedom Day!! :D Seventeen years ago toms around 5pm, I drove (my manual wheelchair; obviously I lost my driver's license after  getting the brain injury) outta  the double locked doors of BIRU/the insane asylum XD, YELLING "FREEDOOM!!!" and hopefully leaving that awful place forever to the laughter of the nurses behind me! Peggy's coming @ 9:30am and taking me to Breathe for physio @ 11, after which we'll prolly buy groceries before coming home for shower and lunch. Doing some cooking with the OT afterwards but mostly I'm hoping Fi  and bubs will  come  celebrate my Freedom Day with me and bring cake! XD
  • Anyways,  hopefully bbl,  else wishing everyone  a smashing end to the week toms!
    Cheers,

 Good evening and definitely one final greeting for tonight! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total now stands @ 5703but secondly and way more importantly, I'm really still owedTHIRTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after I let PIG mum boot me off to bed; the SECOND CONSECUTIVE DAY I've been unable to enjoy the entirety of my MOST IMPORTANT TWO HOURS OF THE DAY ONLINE!! >< But just noting down that Dr. Lee gave me a lift to GG and tonight twelve attended; we did a Bible study from Acts 2:14-41 and although sadly nobody from GG's free to celebrate my Freedom Day over dinner with me, Fiona said she and bubs could provide they get over their flu jabs toms okay! :D Karina's  coming @ 8am toms and helping me to GCCW and will see me home and showered before leaving @ 1:30pm meaning no time for lunch out but fingers crossed PIG mum'll let her buy me some takeaway for lunch! Nothing happening after she leaves; looking forward to  my most important hours of the day online, starting to reread that Philippa Gregory book, watching the 6pm news for the 67TH  time and best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I say every week, a very little's better than @ all! Righteo, hope everyone's having a smashing week!
Cheers,
ZEm. ^^

 Good evening! Firstly, Em's new plodding total for Wednesday now stands @ 4771 (ooh, maybe I'll reach half a normal person before tonight ends!) and secondly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Living Sacrifices' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FORTY-NINE MINUTES online after getting home from GG tonight!! Anyways, just briefly, continuing today's events?

  • PIG mum helped me up, I had breakfast, did a number two then went grocery shopping with dad @ Rochdale Coles.
  • Can't remember what I had for lunch before Catherine took me to the NAB for my two-hour session.
  • Mrs. Hoppie's working while the other CEs are on holiday! The new teacher's called Georgie/Georgia.
  • Physio today: Ten transfers from double red mats to plinth, four, two- and one-point kneeling, stepping for erf, left weight shift, left gliding and 100 single leg pushups for Elf on tower of power.
  • Stuck in peak hour traffic for ages but finally home and took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Catherine 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 one yummy banana, one plain cracker and one little cup of green tea. Unsure why PIG mum keeps putting the green teabag into the white teacup, but I just told Catherine to get a little cup from the third drawer.
  • Happily read Boy Swallows Universe, finishing pg. 475 @ 4:28pm, finding the book title on pg. 489 and FINISHING THE BOOOK @ EXACTLY 5:55PM!! Thanks to Catherine who grabbed me Philippa Gregory's novel to continue reading.
  • Will sit over the loo for two more tinkles @ 6:40pm before Dr. Lee takes me to GG Bible study @ 6:45pm, BYO dinner @ 7pm. Fingers crossed I can find someone free for dinner this Friday for my Freedom Day!!
  • Toms: Karina's coming @ 8am and taking me to GCCW! The shift ends @ 1:30pm so won't have time to eat out and fingers crossed PIG mum'll let Karina buy some takeaway for my lunch!
  • Nothing happening after Karina leaves; looking forward to my most important two hours of the day online, reading the Philippa Gregory novel for one hour and watching the 6pm news for the 67TH time!
  • Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I say, a very little's better than none @ all!
