Friday Post 387

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2136 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'God Heals By Humbling'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Recognising God's Voice"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Plans For You" and fifthly, the spam count for the week's already one hundred; only the second time this year it's reached triple digits! Anyhow, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck awoke me when it came THUNDERING down our street to tip bins @ 5:55am; after one pot :P trip 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*
  • Then I happily snore, waking hourly for the pot :P until Vicki comes to help me up @ 9am.
  • After my fifteen more minutes; I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth. Thanks to Vicki who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys another break~
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, coming out to the gobbling :P table when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of gluggy porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast smeared with a little avocado and sprinkled with a little salt. 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 loo, 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 climb into the passenger seat of Vicki's car and she tootles us off to the Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown ALDI to buy facial tissues; we also wander into New York Baguette and I select sth for arvo tea~
  • Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Thanks to Vicki who also helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • After getting dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one tasteless bowl of microwaved rice leftovers and one big mug of plain green tea.
  • Before Vicki left, I used the loo once more for two tinkles. I'm gonna miss her: next week, someone new will take her Friday shift! She's swapped with another carer coz she's got sleepovers also. I was kinda grumpy that I didn't get my two weeks' notice but hopefully I'll see her again; Vicki's nice~
  • Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, munch my arvo tea and read my new book club novel for one hour.
  • Ooh maybe I'll get to watch the 6pm bulletin for the 111TH time!
  • Toms:Hannah's minding me from 10am till 2pm. Hopefully she'll take me grocery shopping and sushi buying @ Calamvale Central, otherwise expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
  • Will shower @ 12:30pm since I don't get 4-6pm support Saturdays anymore.
  • Wonder will dad take me to play table tennis/ping pong with CM folk? Must remember to bring along the Journey To The West comic book the CM aunty lent me if yes!
  • Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea and fingers crossed for the chance to read for three hours toms!
  • Righteo, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
