Sunday Post 322

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2131 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Three Examples Of How Faith Fulfills Good Resolve'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Handle Disappointment (2)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Grace For Trials'; fifthly, the spam count for the week's actually thirty-two and sixthly, the spam count for the weekend's only three. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, third consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until noisy PIG mum began her daily a-STOMPING around upstairs @ 6:20am; after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep because I knew for sure she'd get really loud one hour later! Not only that: I had my 4th remembered dream for the year: I'm driving some golf buggy over to visit Joey; she's somehow morphed into this giant furry GRIMACE!! XD
• Like clockwork, PIG mum a-THUMPING upstairs one hour later was my wakeup call to use the pot :P more, 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*

•  Come 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 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 with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces, 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 before washing and drying Era and then walking myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.

• Breakfast was like two Weet-Bix with a lil honey streaked over them plus one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with a very thin layer of avocado spread over it plus perhaps the briefest shaking of 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*

   

• After breakfast, I walk myself slowly and safely to the loo, again 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!

• Less than thirty minutes left, so just super-nriefly:

• Fi gave me a lift to the Lung residence for small group. Reverend Chris led a Bible study from Galatians 1:11-2:20, ten people attended and Ronnie lemme choose a delicious pastry with one strawberry on the top to eat! The Lungs have this really cool table insert thing they put above me; Reverend Chris asked, "Put your arm up?" and Ela immediately swung up!

• Fi dropped me back off to BCAC afterwards; thanks to Hairy who lifted the loo lid for me~

• Stayed seated for worship today; sang everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

• Speaker today was Rev. Chris; he started a new series about anarchy from Judges.

• Wanted to stay behind after service for that meeting discussing the results of our recent EGM but dad demanded I leave because he was too hurried to feed me lunch so he could dump me back home and race off to play baddy and have arvo tea with his mates! ><

• At least he got me that MyMaccas app $5.95 double beef and bacon burger deal and upgraded the ewgular orange into a large one for me; he also lemme have two munches of his grand angus burger.

• Was pissed to discover that PIG mum hadn't lifted the loo lid up yet; hauled myself upstairs to use the loo for one tinkle before coming back downstairs and popping online.

• Wonder who's playing who for Sunday arvo footy?

• Dad had better take us too Chinese food for dinner tonight and gimme ONE bowl of rice!

• Toms: think Annette's minding me from 9-1. PIG mum'll prolly send us for walkies @ Underwood MarketPlace again.

• DFunno have I got anymore appointments after 1pm, but fingers crossed I can read for one hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 126TH time!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
