Saturday Post 290

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I’ve been hard @ work plodding only 607 steps (because obviously, I’ve not left the house) and secondly, TWFT topic’s ‘A Moveable Altar’. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 5^th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn’t call until 7:15am (when PIG noisily THUMPED around upstairs) and after one pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7:25am 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*
• Usually PIG mum doesn’t come hit me with the eye goo before leaving for her half day’s work till 7:30am; wonder why she came five minutes earlier this morning? Anyhow, once she’d done so, 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*

• At 3pm exactly, I’ve played one game of Bejeweled lasting 5:54. Now, lemme play one more lasting between six and seven minutes, and I’ll promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD

• Shirley and I cuddled and we had a massive snore; I didn’t wake again for the pot :P until 9:30am, when dad started using the noisy vacuum cleaner and woke me!

• After another pot :P trip, I spent another ten minutes 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!
• Now @ 3:33pm I’ve finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 6:01. That’s today’s quotas satisfied and I now promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz for my first game I actually lasted just over TEN MINUTES!
• Suddenly the new carer arrives fifteen minutes early! Still, I get my fifteen more minutes before she comes and helps me up~
• Her name’s Natalie and I’m one DECADE OLDER than her! She was born in Melbourne and studies paramedic and nursing @ uni right now.
• After getting me kitted, we head over to the bathroom and I brush teeth. Ela can’t believe her luck; this week, PIG mum has only gleefully forced her to hold the toothbrush in the morning once!
• After drinking one mug of water, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table.
• Lol, Natalie cooks the bread yummier than Besta does; it’s actually CRUNCHY! For some reason there’s only egg but thanks to Natalie who adds one slice f cheese for me~
• I happily read for ninety-five minutes, while Natalie tidies my bedroom then sits and massages Ela for about forty minutes while watching TV.
• At midday she gives me a hand to the bathroom and I do a stinky unspeakable.
• Back @ the gobbling :P table Maddie (not Natalie! XD) makes me another mug of white tea with two sugars and I read for another quarter hour before ringing Aunty Nga. Mickey answers but isn’t really clear about what happened to him; when I ask Aunty Nga she told me Mickey was gonna have an MRI next Friday; gosh, I hope the little tyke’s alright …
• At 12:30 I head to the bathroom for my nice hot shower – hairwash today. Also thanks to Maddie who rinses my hair out for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. Actually, yay that dad didn’t ask her to cook me fried rice while I was showering and just make a sandwich for me, because that meant she could stay and hold the showerhead over my back while I washed, hurrah!
• I had one tinkle before Maddie flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Maddie rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf’s AFO straps and one last one when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, Maddie made me some chicken salad sandwich for lunch; she’d brought along leftover spag bol for herself.
• Before she left, I used the loo once more for two tinkles.
• After publishing this post, I’m gonna visit the loo once then eat the strawberries PIG mum kindly left out for me and read for one more hour; it’s only Saturdays that I get to spend a blessed three hours with my nose buried in a book!
• Would love for dad to take PIG mum and I out for dinner tonight but doubt that’s gonna happen … *sigh*
• Toms; just church, nothing special. Would also love lunch out with ESS peers but expecting a cheap lunch @ Maccas and then a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh*
• Then dad had better take us out for dinner toms night!
  Anyways, hopefully bbl, ele hope to see everyone @ church toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
