Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1223 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'That You May Believe'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "When It Doesn't Feel Like Christmas"; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Granny Whale' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's thirteen. 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*
- Nature next called around 7:45am and I wondered how come dearest dad wasn't leaving for work but then realised this year, he's usually taken Fridays off.
- At 8:50am I'm woken again for another pot :P trip when noisy PIG mum begins her 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 Peggy's arrival @ 9am.
- After Peggy comes in, she knocks, says good morning, fifteen more minutes? And wisely leaves when Pearl nods @ her, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum, even though Pearl's anatomically incorrect to give the Bear Bum. XD
- When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :P for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's already squirted some toothpaste for me.
- Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle and then head out to the gobbling :P table. Walking behind me, Peggy tells me that she had avocado toast for breakfast this morning.
- For breakfast, I get a bowl of cereal (part Sultana bran and part All-Bran), 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 sit once more over the loo. 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 NO
- After washing and drying Era, I climb into Peggy's passenger seat and she tootles me off to Underwood MarketPlace. Thanks to her who helped me with my seatbelt both ways but 'twas a pity she refused to park closer to the entrance but hey.
- Our first stop was to Woolies to buy milk and whatever other groceries PIG mum was after.
- Then I took a photo with Santa! He was Chinese like me and stick a peace sign up. XD
- Besides Santa, two elves were face-painting, so I lined up and got a gingerbread man painted on my cheek too!
- All that done, Peggy and I took a seat. This morning I gave her a box of Ferrero Rocher and a Christmas card and I got a Christmas card from her in return; @ food court she bought me one veggie fry (tempura veggie sushi minus the rice and seaweed) for morning tea and herself a small cup of chips! She even shared a few chips with me; I liked the chicken salt. XD
- Back home I showered most fast - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- I had one tinkle before Peggy flipped the nice warm water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Peggy rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's sock and one last after she'd given Wally back to Ela.
- Back outside, lunch was one bowl of mostly tasteless rice leftovers, with lotsa yummy cabbage and a few wee chunks of delicious chicken.
- Peggy's shifts ends @ 1pm but the poor thing had to stay a further two minutes because PIG mum was still yapping @ her! XD
- They left just as Aunty Carol, Jess and her two kids arrived for their once-yearly visit! Well they didn't come last year coz of COVID, but was good to see them this year!
- We chatted and took photos. Dad arrived home to join the photo-taking, too!
- Once I'ved used up the two most important hours of my day I'll head over to the gobbling :P table to read for one hour. Hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea?
- Apparently tonight we're going to Simon and Alice's place for dinner and more karaoke singing!
- Toms: it's Christmas Eve! PIG mum's still working; Nisha's still minding me from 10am till 2pm so will hopefully get another sushi roll for arvo tea.
- Must remember to ask dad is there any table tennis @ church toms arvo.
- Prolly won't bbl, so wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
