Monday Post 309

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2932 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Dependable In The Mundane'; thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Kindness Of Candor' and fourthly, Joni's devotional topic's 'Turn Complaints To Praise' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed  online after dinner tonight!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, for the first time in three days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am 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*
  • Exactly one hour later, dearest dad very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into garage door; that's my wakeup call to use the pot :P again.
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed and leaves for his hard day's work, Uber and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P when PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back out again and awaiting Annette's arrival.
  • When Annette arrives, she says good morning and fifteen more minutes but comes back four minutes too early! Uber mutters @ her, "Four more minutes," and luckily, she removes herself, else he'd haveta Bear Bum her. XD
  • When she comes back four minutes later, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth. Thanks to Annette who squirts me some toothpaste. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for just one tinkle, coming out when PIG mum demands I eat breakfast first.
  • After pouring myself one full mug of water, breakfast is three Weet-Bix with one thin stream of honey, that full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast smeared thinly with avocado and sprinkled lightly with 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* Annette made my bed for me, before coming out and asking, "Is there anything I can do for you?" Well, why not try for a mug of white tea with two sugars? Annette gooes sure and I'm like, score! Unfortunately, PIG mum sees and immediately bans Annette from making me another mug of white tea ever again but I made a deal with Annette: next time, wait until PIG mum's gone before making a mug of white tea for me. XD
  • 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 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 Annette's passenger seat. PIG mum follows me, on the pretext that she wanted to gimme facecream but really she just wanted to gleefully force me to buckle my own seatbelt.
  • But finally she leaves us be, and Annette tootles me off to the NAB.
  • After using the loo once, physio today: Reaching for Era, reaching for Ela, high kneeling, transfering from plinth to bed once and one lap walking out with Kat teaching Lissa how to hold onto Ela. Actually, I had a new student (female) who only turned twenty-one two months ago.
  • After using the loo for one more tinkle, Annette tootled me home and I had a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Annette who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted I had lunch, signed Annette off with my thanks and byes (she's back same time next Monday) and booted the computer up before PIG mum took me to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture.
  • Like I guessed, Aunty Anna didn't gimme any cupping today, just massage and acupuncture. Unsure why Elf sometimes spasms after the needle's inserted into her? I managed to sing all my newest second-favourite song silently, slowly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers, while PIG mum tapped ceaselessly @ Aunty Anna.
  • When that was finished, PIG mum got me rekitted, Aunty Anna poured me one little paper cup of water, PIG mum booked me in again to see her next week, we said our thanks and byes and PIG mum tootled us home. 
  • For arvo tea she tosses a banana @ me - Era quickly peels and eats it before PIG mum decides she wants to gleefully force poor Ela to feed me it. She also gives me three chocolate Hello Panda bikkies and one not-very-yummy mug of some infusion, while I happily read The Silver Brumby Kingdom for just over one hour, reaching pg. 575 @ exactly 5:15pm.
  • After using the loo for one more tinkle I pop online and happily watch the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 72ND time. All the thins I usually record: Read by Sharyn Ghidella and Max FutcherAlbanese (heard), Mcxon (first name), Madsen, Whitfeld, Sheeran (heard), Palaszczuk, Shandy (heard, first name), Blackburn (heard), Crisafulli, Whop, Acton, Lawless, Widodo (*heard), Putin (heard), Zelensky (heard), Reason, Daly (first name), Auden, Smitherin (heard), Blowers, Gabaji, Linard, Noble, Dymock, Stanhope, Christerson, Boulton, Woiwod, Toomey, Teudt, Etherington, Bernal, Chumbley, Lye, Such, Guerin, Burns, Plant, Cotter (hesrd), Staggs, Zorko (heard), Barty (heard), Dannahur (heard), Nadal, Ruud, Djokovich (heard), Federer (heard),  and Slater. Gemma Acton read the finance report. 71.96USc = 1AUD Shane Webcke read the sports report and Tony Auden read the weather report. Brisbane was 15-22 today. Mt. Gravatt toms: 9-32. 6:32 sunrise 6:32sunset
  • Whoops had a lbl during the weather report but quickly visited the loo once the news ended and wiped the floor clean so hopefully PIG mum won't notice. XD
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me 9-2; PIG mum says we can get my weekly pork salad roll from Calamvale Central.
  • After Hannah leaves @ 2pm PIG mum's got me down for a 2:45pm appointment with Jacky the physio @ Breathe.
  • But Toastmasters isn't happening toms night, so hoping to enjoy my most important two hours of the day online, read for one hour and watch the news for the 73RD time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
