Wednesday Post 313

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4938 steps (ha, should've cracked half a normal person before today runs out XD; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Enduring When Obeying Hurts'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Mind Your Mind' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Run From Sin' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWO MINUTES online tonight after online choir rehearsal!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:05am and after one pot :P trip I immediately tried falling back asleep because I vaguely remember PIG mum saying she'd prod me up @ like 7:20am!
• Sleep didn't return coz ten minutes later, PIG mum began her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs! Instead, 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* 
• After PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo, she helps me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (because dearest dad's still home) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back to help me with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth (poor Ela). Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when PIG mum demands I eat breakfast for her first.
• Breakfast is one bowl of mashed-up bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with one slice of toast very lightly spread with avocado and perhaps even more lightly sprinkled with 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*
  Cheers,
