Tuesday Post 344

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2488 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Best Passage Ever'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Thoughts On Good Leadership' and thirdly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Your Part, God's Part". Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am, and after one 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*

•  Usually nature calls hourly after that initial pot :P trip, but happiness was snoring soundly until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking for another pot :P trip.

• After dearestt dad has kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Hannah's arrival @ 9am.

• When Hannah arrives, PIG mum lets her in. She knocks, bids me good morning, fifteen more minutes and wisely disappears when Pearl nods @ her although he's not got the correct anatomy to give a proper Bear Bum if thus required. XD When she comes back, I swing myself over to the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, while Hannah empties the pot :P for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and walk 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 today was one small bowl of Minus :P (actually, 'twas a new box of Plus that came with MANGO!), all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. I really hope that PIG mum comes to her senses and gives me toast too toms else I don't see how I'm gonna get through two hours of physio come Wednesday ...  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!

• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Hannah's tank and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central.

• First we pop into the fruit shop coz PIG mum wanted a bag of avocados.

• Then we head into Woolies but I'm grumpy coz there weren't any cheap facial tissues available. >< *sigh*

• But yay that I get to sit and play Jewel Hereos for like 1.5 hours; today I pass another eight levels! My record's ten; perhaps I'll pass another two tonight going and coming home from Toastmasters~

• Today, PIG mum rang to say she was home; I bought my crackling pork bahn mi before climbing back into Hannah's tank.

• Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, I was already done after singing the song five times since Hannah didn't leave until after she'd given me some facewash but happily leaned fully against the siderail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling Hannah back.

• I had one tinkle before I flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Hannah rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's sock and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.

• Back outside, lunch was my delicious crispy pork salad roll (I asked uncle why his custard tart fell apart when I touched it but HK yum cha ones are more solid; uncle just replied different custard!) and one mug of Chinese tea. 

• At 2pm, I signed Hannah off with my thanks and byes; she's back same time next week and will make apricot chicken for dinner tonight!

• Before plopping online, I used the loo for one tinkle.

• Someone new called Minjin's taking me to Toastmasters tonight ... hope she's nice!

• Annoyed that PIG mum'll restrict me to only a pissy little Happy Meal for dinner but hey, hoping I'll get more Pokemon cards! ^^

• Toms: can't remember who's taking me to physio for two hours toms ... hoping PIG mum'll gimme toast with cereal else I don't see how I'll have enough energy to last two hours doing exercise without sufficient energy ... *sigh*

• Vaguely recall I'm not seeing Ray for massage and acupuncture since he's holidaying with his kids for term break ... ooh, maybe I can persuade PIG mum to take me for lunch @ the Underwood Japanese place that has backrests on their seats!

• Actually, isn't the shift toms midday till 5pm? Dunno who's coming; perhaps I'll just spend the morning staring @ the computer. XD

• Gotta check and send off GCCW homework too!

• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
