Sunday Post 393

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2981 steps (hence why I'm positive I'll have cracked three grand before Wednesday's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Life Hangs On The Word Of God' ; thirdly, TWFT topic's "How To Protect Yourself When You're Alone" and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's already twenty-four. Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:20am when PIG mum began her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew with certainity that she'd be getting noisy again one hour later!
  • Sure enough, exactly one hour later noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for church; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P once again, before 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*

  • \Shortly afterwards, PIG mum comes back to help with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of plain  toast containing the tiniest ever smear of butter and strawberry jam, all my usual drufs :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 to the toilet, rising above the cruel and unfaithful Gods near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and spend 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!
  • After washing and drying Era,I sit outside my bedroom and await Fi's arrival. When she arrives, I climb into the passenger seat of her car, greet C1 and C2, and get an adorable chorus of 'Hi, Aunty Em!' in return~
  • Fi tootles us off to Underwood Park and manages to carry my pic nic chair, hold my hand and instruct C1 and C2 to hold hands and walk together all @ once! 
  • Originally she gave me this pear and caramel croissant but it came with a streak of peanut butter! o_O I reported that to Fi, who immediately whipped it away and gave me another one, custard.
  • Afterwards, Fi tootled us back to church. PIG mum met me, but was mean refused to lift the toilet lid up for me, meaning I had to do that myself before sitting for a tinkle. *sigh*
  • For worship today, I sang everything plus the harmony for four songs but like every other day, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Reverend Chris; he started a new sermon series entitled Glorious Purpose.
  • After service, Pastor Grace suggested how about a kebab for lunch? Sure, score!
  • Miss Lam walked with me down to the eating area behind church and grabbed a chair for me while she and Reverend Chris setup tables.
  • Awesome, Pastor Grace not only came back with a kebab and a 250mL poppa of orange juice for me, she also got me one lil packet of chps that were doused with chicken salt! :D Only the kebab got too soggy and melted through; Pastor Grace got me a plate and fork to finish the kebab with. XD
  • Since I'm such a slow eater, everybody already packed everything away and left but Miss Lam said nah take your time there's no rush.
  • When I'd finally finished we walked back to her car and she dropped me back home. I used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.
  • PIG mum's already decreed arvo tea's @ 5pm and then I'm taking a shower.
  • Toms: perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me? Think she's found David to come gimme physio but don't think I've got any appointments to attend and will just be having lunch @ home with dearest dad.
  • Also can't remember who's coming to mind mw toms arvo but hopefully I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 106TH time afterwards!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
