Saturday Post 315

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1936 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Work By Grace'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Are You Producing For God?' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Useless Without Love' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-THREE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm bulletin for the 104TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:40am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew for sure that PIG mum would get very noisy one hour later!
  • Sure enough, around 7:10am PIG mum goes a-THUMPING upstairs and gets changed for her half-day's work; that's my wake-up signal to use the pot :P once more. After another 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* 
  • At 7:30am, PIG mum rushes into my room to hit me with the eye goo before bolting off for her half day's work. Once she's left, 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 dearest dad retucks me into bed, promises to stay quiet so Uber and I may snore and says he'll leave me some rice leftovers for lunch, we happily fall back asleep, me waking once/twice more for the pot :P before Annette announces her arrival.
  • Only it's not Annette but Nisha? I use the pot :P for two more tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth, Ela enjoying her last break this week from having to hold the toothbrush. After drinking one mug of water, I sit over the loo proper and 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!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
