Friday Post 440

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3437 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Change Is Possible'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Meeting Jesus @ The Communion Table'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Thoughts And Prayers'; fifthly, the final, final spam count for the weekend's actually eleven and sixthly, the spam count for the week's eleven but seventhly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THREE MINUTES online after Sophie minds me for two hours!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep coz I remembered I'd haveta get up early today!
  • Sure enough, one hour later I'm awoken for another pot :P trip when PIG mum starts her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs; 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* 
  • 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.
  • 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 and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then 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 is one bowl ofMinus :P, 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!

  • After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of dad's 4WD and he tootles us to the Mt. Gravatt cemetery where Uncle Slam's mum's funeral was being held.
  • Upon arrival, I walk over to the entrance and give Uncle Slam a hug. PIG mum and I both use the bathroom once and then I grab a spot on the most left somewhere near the back.
  • Reverend Jacob officiated while Uncle Slam's sister Becky and Anna gave the eulogy. Wow, she was actually born the year after my most beloved maternal grandma but outlived her for twelve years!
  • Her casket was open and I took the opportunity to walk around it once and pay her my final respects.
  • Everyone was invited to see her burial; dad had mother and I return to the car and wait for him and then he drove us down to where her burial plot was. I had to stand for like twenty minutes while everyone sang a hymn and Reverend Jacob gave final words but I had Green Sticky so even though just standing's the hardest thing  for me to do, In managed.
  • When that was over, I hiked back to dad's 4WD and he tootled PIG mum and me over to Landmark for lunch together afterwards.
  • Sadly, lunch was a COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT: earlier dad randomly chucked a cow @ me about how apparently I get aggressive when it comes to eating? Anyhow, he said I was only allowed to eat what he gave me and eat only when he said I could! Meaning I got LESS THAN 1/4 bowl of rice but had to wait like TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES before being allowed to eat it. Whatever; @ least the BBQ pork and the sweet and sour chicken was good!
  • Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle and plopped online.
  • Sophie's coming to mind me from 4-6pm today.
  • Hopefully I can watch the 6pm news for the 185TH time!
  • Toms: Nisha's minding me from 10am till 2pm.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
