Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3373 steps (aww, how come I couldn't have plodded forty steps fewer? 3333 steps would've sounded cooler! XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Prayer Is For For Sinners'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Prove Yourself Faithful'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Time Enough' and fifthly, the spam count for the weekend's twenty-eight. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! This was despite the cruel and unfaithful God DELIBERATELY sending the noisy garbage truck THUNDERING down our road to tip bins BEFORE the Sun had risen, even though I'd SPECIFICALLY prayed last night and asked Him please NOT to send those noisy garbage trucks come RUMBLING down until AFTER the Sun had risen sufficiently for me to see the time on the wall!! *sigh* Fine, two can play @ that game; since He ignored me, I just ignored Him right back and successfully fell back asleep without having an incident. It's impossible to win God, PIG mum sneers @ me, but I calmly reply I'm not trying to win God. I'm just saying I'm not gonna let Him win, and today was the perfect example.
- Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 6:35am; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep again, since I knew dearest dad would get ready to leave for his hard day's work one hour later!
- Sure enough, one hour later dad very thoughtfully and silently walks down the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again. After the second 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*
- Once dearest dad kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P before PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning back outside and awaiting Hannah's arrival @ 9am.
- After Hannah arrived, she knocked, pushed open the door, said good morning and fifteen more minutes ... Uber nodded @ her and she wisely removed herself. XD
- When she returned, I swung myself over to the pot :P for three tinkles, we celebrate the mighty Maroons victory over the smelly Blues and then we gett me kitted, before I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Ela enjoys another break from having to hold the toothbrush. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, coming out when PIG mum orders I eat breakfast for her first.
- After pouring myself one full mug of water, breakfast is three Weet-bix with one thin stream of honey, one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread thinly with avocado and sprinkled with a little salt, all my usual drugs :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 sit once more 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 NO
- After washing and drying Era I climb into Hannah's Tank and she starts to tootle me off to UQ. Only going down Gaskell Street I tell her please turn back; I forgot to bring chocolate for the students to say thanks! Tried ringing home and PIG mum's mobile but neither were answered; Hannah just went back inside and found them.
- Two hours of physio today: four laps long hallway walking, two laps short hallway walking, iPsd piano keys with both hands and cone work for Ela. I gave chocolate and said bye to my two students; I also poked fun @ Denny for being a smelly Blue and losing the first Origin game. XD
- After one more loo trip, Hannah tootled me home and I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- I had one tinkle before Hannah flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Hannah rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf's AAFO strap and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
- Back outside, Hannah made me aplain tuna toastie with one slice of cheese toastie cut into two rectangles for lunch and went to clean the bathroom, while PIG mum poured me one warm mug of peppermint tea.
- At 2pm I headed over to the computer and signed Hannah off with my thanks and byes; she's back next Monday 9-1.
- Thirty minutes after Hannah left, Tiff and male OT student (already forgotten his name, sorry! XD) came and I made a white sauce chicken pasta bake with them! Will try remember put photos onto Facebook shortly~
- I walked Tiff and student out, used the loo for one tinkle and popped online.
- PIG mum's already nagged me about me getting offline but I'm not leaving rill I've used up all my most important two hours!
- Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 74TH time!
- Toms: Nisha's minding me 10-2. Dunno where dad'll send 8us for walkies but will shower when I get home since I don't get 4-6pm support anymore.
- Hopefully dad'll take me to church with him to play ping pong together!
- Looking forward to my three big mugs of white tea and fingers crossed for the chance to read for two hours (not three, else I'll not have time for my most important two hours online!)
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
P.S. All the interesting surnames I saw while watching the 6pm bulletin (Nine's) for the 74TH time:
