Saturday Post 394

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3778 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Coping With Crises (1)'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo hoo, 17TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 5:10am (my favourite thing about Summer's prolly how early the Sun rises!) and 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* 
  • Oh, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Caring For Those In Need'.
  • Happiness was then snoring until being reawoken by PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs; usually nature calls every hour after that initial pot :P trip! After relieving myself again, I immediately fall back asleep again, because I'm certain PIG mum will get noisy again one hour later!
  • Like clockwork; noisy PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for her morning's work awakens me for another pot :P trip; soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before rushing off for her morning's work.
  • After dearest dad's retucked me into bed, promised to cook me some leftovers for lunch and then stay quiet, before returning to happy snorings with Uber 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*

  •  I wake twice more for the pot :P before Hannah arrives and says fifteen more minutes. After calling her back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me  kitted and I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth; Ela enjoys her last break this week from having to hold the toothbrush.

  • After calling repeatedly for Hannah please for a mug of water, I sit over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and 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 walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.

  • Thanks to dad who cooked ham and eggs; thanks also to Hannah who cooked the bread yummy and added one slice of cheese for me. I enjoy my first mug of white tea with two sugars~

  • After using the loo for one more tinkle, I climb into Hannah's tank and she tootles me off to the Logan North library to collect the new month's book; excitement: we're doing Lian Hearn's Grass For His Pillow!

  • Our other stop's Underwood MarketPlace to buy one loaf of white bread and my sushi roll for arvo tea. Unfortunately Yeshi's not there; perhaps she only works Monday till Friday! I'd even written her a Christmas card too!

  • Back home, I turn off the alarm and take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

  • I have one tinkle before Hannah flips the nice warm water off, get dried, get creamed and have another tinkle. When WHannah rekits me, I have one more tinkle when she's helping with Elf's AFO straps and one more when Hannah's giving Wally back to Ela.

  • Back outside, I happily start reading Grass For WHis Pillow! Hannahg makes me my second mug of white tea with two sugars, reheats lunch for me and then goes to clean the bathroom. After I finish the second cup, she makes me one more, coz Saturday's now my white tea with two sugars day~

  • Before she leaves I use the loo once more for two tinkles.

  • When dad returns, he sends me to the bathroom again before driving us to BCAC to play table tennis!

  • Lotsa people here today, like, TEN uncles! Dad was lucky: he didn't stop @ all today and played like six rounds straight! I played thrice with him and took a break between each one.

  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and then headed down the hallway to eat my yummy kaarage chicken roll and drink one mug of green tea. Unsure why PIG mum refused to gimme any chai, but hey.

  • Before returning online, I did a second stinky unspeakable.

  • Toms: just church, nothing special. Oh, I suppose the special thing can be that Fi's picking me up @ 8:30am and taking me to the Lungs for the final SG Bible study for 2021!

  • Would love lunch out with other ESS people, but expecting just a Happy Meal with dad. *sigh*

  • Also expecting a stressful arvo @ the hands of horrid PIG mum. >< *sigh*

  • But dad had better take us out for dinner toms night (preferably Chinese) and gimme ONE bowl of rice to eat!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner, else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Chjeers,
    Em. ^^
