Tuesday Post 473

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2930 steps (so will surely have cracked three grand before the night's out XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Fear That Draws Us In'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Sharing Our Lives' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Heaping Coals On Enemies'. Anyways, events for today?

• Grr, I'd just began an awesome sleep streak (four nights) when idiot nature called around 2am and ruined it! ><M Nah, I'm not complaining; 'twas still a sound sleep~
• When nature called again shortly after sunrise, 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*
• I next woke for another pot :P trip when dearest dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for his hard day's work. He also pretended to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed his head off when Pearl body slammed him for the cheek and retucked me back into bed before leaving.
• After fsf had gone, Pearl, Pijum and I all cuddled and snored for about another hour, me waking once more for the pot :P shortly before 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 Lena's arrival.
• Once PIG mum lets Lena in, Lena knocks, opens the door and bids me good morning. When I flap one of Pijum's ears @ her, she laughs and asks us, fifteen more minutes? Another ear flap, and she wisely leaves. Phew, because Pijum's anatoomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum. XD
• When Lena comes back, I use the loo for @ least three more tinkles, we get me kitted and I head over to brush teeth, before sitting for one tinkle over the loo.
• After washing and drying Era, Lena walks with me out to the gobbling :P table.
• Breakfast is half a bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, 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, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over. Lena was coming with me, except for horrid PIG mum who called Lena back coz she wanted to yap @ her. Fine with me, I got to trail Era along the wall~
• Sitting over the loo, 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 Lena's passenger seat. Thanks to her who helps me with my seatbelt (as she does all day) before she tootles me off to Breathe for physio.
• Today I have physio with one of the two UQ students! Physio today: 1.925km bike ride,  thirty shoulder press per arm with 4kg , 36 leg curls per foot and 24 sit to stand with punching boxing ball!
• Afterwards Lina tootled us back to Pinelands Coles and got a shopping trolley for us.
• Since Lena had brought lunch from home today, I only got a boxz of cheap facial tissues before I got my once-weekly bahn mi from the Pinelands Bakehouse. Saw Aunty Nancy, even though she wasn't the lady that served us.
• Back home, I took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Lena who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Nisha flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and got rekitted, only having one tinkle when Lena was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, lunch was my delicious crackling pork salad roll; thanks to Lena who also made me one big mug of white tea with two sugars!
• Mother eventually tumbled downstairs and yapped @ Lena. When I asked Lena to please walk behind me to the loo @ 1:55pm, PIG mum immediately denied that and sent me to the loo myself while she continued to yap @ Lena. Fine by me: Era trailed the wall while I walked.
• Lena actually left two minutes early, although I'm unsure was it coz she got PIG mum to sign her off early/PIG mum signed her off early and shooed her away. She's back same time next Tuesday and I'd better be the one to sign her off!
• After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely  back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Once I've enjoyed my most important two hours of the day online, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table, ask PIG mum for some arvo tea and read that former president's novel for one hour.
• Most excitingly, Rebecca's taking me to Toastmasters tonight! Looking forward to bringing some dinner back from Maccas, never mind that UnHappy Meals were what I had surely MORE THAN THREE DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Toms: PIG mum says she'll help me up and take me for walkies somewhere~
• Some Staffing Options person will take me to para table tennis before seeing me home and showered.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 98TH time!
• Anyways, maybe bbl but if not, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
