Monday Post 440

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3944 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Five Reasons Death Is Gain'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Obey God, Regardless (3) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Reading Backwards'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past four nights, 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* 
  • Nature usually calls hourly after that initial morning pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly with Pearl all the way until dearest dad silently and very thoughtfully walked along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage door before waking again to relieve myself.
  • After dearest dad kissed me bye, tried to suck Pearl's pearls (Pearl smacked him for that but since's he's all soft dad just laughed XD), retucked me back into bed and left for his hard day's work, Pearl and I happily cuddled and snored for about another hour, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap 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, 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 the last of PIG mum's dense but yummy plain buns with a little cheese and golden syrup on the top, one warm mug of Milo, 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 PIG mum's 4WD and she tootles us off to Calamvale Central, getting a park underground. Of course, she gleefully forces me to buckle my own seatbelt both ways, we listen to 97.3FM both ways too and today, Era helps Ela stretch for thirty minutes before Ela opens and closes her palm 200 times, holding each for a count of five. Era also helps rub Ela's fingers for two/three minutes.
  • We catch the escalator up onto the shop floor and then I walk all the way to one end of the shopping centre where Go Cutt's located. I take a seat on the comfy padded bench, PIG mum hands me my mobile and then she goes to get her haircut. Afterwards, I hike to the other end of the shopping centre, where we buy groceries from Woolies before our last stop's the refurbished sushi place, where we both buy one for arvo tea (egg salad for me).
  • Back home, I boot the computer up while PIG mum brings the groceries back into the house. Dad's having a Whatsapp video chat with First Aunty; goodness, I think she's turning EIGHTY next year!
  • For lunch, PIG mum fed me one tuna in onion and tomato toastie with one slice of cheese but unbuttered cut into two rectangles. Lunch was washed down with one mug of yummy peppermint tea, before I returned online.
  • Pao's coming to mind me from 4-6pm today. Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 187TH time!
  • Toms: Hannah's minding me from 9-2. First she'll take me to Breathe for physio with Jacky and then we'll buy my weekly crackling pork salad roll for lunch from the Calamvale Central bakery.
  • Jamie just rang and said someone's taking me to Toastmasters but we've both already forgotten her name, oops! XD
  • But after coming home from Toastmasters I'm gonna help PIG mum bake the birthday cake for Mr. Hall, unless she's already finished it!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
