Sunday Post 320

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2503 steps (ha, I'm just over 2.5 grand XDS); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'How To Defy Sinful Desire'; thirdly, TWFT devotional topic's "Three 'Cheers'"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Knows'; fifthly, the spam count for the week's actually sixteen and seventhly, the spam count for the weekend's only nine. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs awoke me; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
  • Like clockwork, noisy PIG mum a-THUMPING upstairs and attending to her personal needs was my wakeup call to use the pot :P again, after which 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 lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's @ 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 with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces, before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush teeth (poor Ela). That done, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle before coming out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is one bowl of the yummier (flaky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD), one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and one of the little polo buns I helped mother make last night! 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 walk myself slowly and safely to the loo, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 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 the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and she tootles us off to church. I hike down the driveway, visit the loo once (had to use the normal ladies loo since the disabled loo lid was closed and PIG mum wouldn't lift it for me) before entering our Bible study classroom.
  • Today Uncle William taught from Galatians 1-2:10. Thankfully he started @ 9am when I asked him please to, although class ended three minutes late.
  • When Bible study finished, I used the loo once more myself (thankfully, the loo lid had been lifted but the seat was too; but that doesn't matter), took a packet of Jatz crackers from Aunty Catherine who was handing out morning tea, hiked upstairs and grabbed my usual spot in the main hall. PIG mum dashed off for her coffee and gossip session with her aunty friends, and dad appeared forbidding me to have lunch out with other ESS people once service ended.
  • Stayed seated for worship; sang everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
  • Speaker today was Peter Pie! His sermon was from Hosea fourteen.
  • Called PIG mum for pickup afterwards but was terribly disappointed to even get a pissy little Happy Meal for lunch; no, she tootled me straight home!
  • But since dumplings are my favourite food, I didn't really mind standing there and frying them~
  • TThose delicious dumplings were washed down with one mug of peppermint tea. Only for some reason I don't really feel full? Well, you are hungrier during Winter ...
  • Dad had better take us out to Chinese food for dinner tonight and gimme ONE bowl of rice!
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me 9-1. Expecting PIG mum to send us for walkies to Underwood Marketplace.
  • Seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture @ 2pm; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • Fingers crossed I can read for one hour and watch the 6pm bulletin for the 113TH time!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl later, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
