Wednesday Post 448

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4493 steps (sweet, I'm over four grand; that doesn't happen too often!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Christmas Solidarity' thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Speak To The Enemy' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Treasured Prayer' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed TWENTY MINUTES online after Hannah minds me for two hours and I watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 205TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Aww, my awesome sleep streak ended this morning @ 12:45am when nature nudged me awake and demanded I relieve myself; @ 6:05am this morning I used the pot :P again before 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 with Pearl until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again to relieve myself. 
  • After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed, pretends to suck Pearl's six pears, laughs when Pearl bodyslams him for the cheek and leaves 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 daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself indep[endently 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 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.
  • After getting myself a spoon (22nd time this year I've had to get myself cutlery), breakfast was one bowl of yummy Sultana 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 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 climbed into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and she tootles me off to Calamvale Central to get a haircut and buy groceries.

  • Two hairdressers worked this morning (one male and one female); still I had to wait two heads before my number was called. Apparently, PIG mum stayed with me coz I can't be trusted left alone? Beats me. *shrugs* My hairdresser was Taiwanese and told me that today wasn't overly busy.

  • Hair cut, I hiked the length of the shopping centre and bought groceries from Woolies, pears from the Mega Discount Fruit Market and a veggie tempura sushi roll for arvo tea, while PIG mum got herself a calamari one.

  • Back home, I help fry noodles for lunch! That's washed down with one delicious mug of Chinese tea; while PIG mum annoyingly demanded I put Ela up onto the table she was also feeling anti-social and sat by herself on the couch to watch television while having lunch; I kept Ela on the table but propped both legs up onto the footstool and played Jewel Heroes, passing two more levels! XD

  • After lunch, I used the loo for one more tinkle and walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. 

  • Hannah's minding me 4-6 today. It's the last time I'm seeing her before Christmas, hence why I've written her a Christmas card and PIG mum's told me to give her a packet of green tea powder!

  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 205TH time!

  • Toms: it's Madam Hippo's birthday!

  • Karina's minding me from 7:30am till 3:30pm; she's taking me to Sunnybank Hoyts to watch the new Avatar movie! It's really long ... hopefully there'll be enough time to watch it, buy PIG mum a piggy birthday present and some other Christmas present from Daiso, have lunch @ C Cafe and get home for a shower!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
