Saturday Post 435

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2727 steps today; secondly, John Piper's daily decvotional topic from last night's 'Shadows And Streams'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Find A Mentor. Become A Mentor' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Plans And Providence' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 135TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Lol, when PIG mum went a-THUMPING around this morning and woke me for a pot :P trip @ 6:50am I'd thought I'd scored an awesome night's sleep after enduring two gruelling hours of physio yesterday, but when I used the pot :P I could hear it wasn't empty! How could I have used the pot :P halfway through the night and then totally forgotten about it?? XD
  • I successfully fell back asleep before being awoken again @ 7:30am, this time by PIG mum a-THUMPING upstairs and getting changed for work. After this 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*

  •  At 7:30am PIG mum dashes into my room to gimme eye goo before bolting off for her morning's work. Once she's gone, 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 kisses me good morning, retucks me back into bed, says he'll leave me some leftovers for Nisha to reheat for my lunch later today and promises to stay quiet so that Uber and I may snore happily in peace, we do exactly that, me waking twice more for the pot :P until Nisha arrives @ 10am.

  • After I count down my fifteen more minutes, I swing myself over to the pot :P and call out to Nisha that I'm hungry. When she doesn't come, I bang the wall for her, calling, "Nisha, where are you?? I said I'm HUNGRY!" She laughs and replies, "Coming. Just getting some gloves first."

  • After two tinkles, I swing myself back into bed, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys her last break this week from having to hold the toothbrush~ 

  • After drinking one mug of water, I sit over the loo proper. 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 headed out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast. Lol, last night I'd had dinner from some *tiny* bowl and was nowhere near full; I told the parents they'd better gimme more breakfast this morning! Dod added one slice of avocado into my ham and egg sandwich; hardly filling! Nisha was hilarious: she said, "Oh, when I saw that tiny bowl you told me you had dinner with last night, I originally thought you'd gotten a pet cat!" XD
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
