Wednesday Post 386

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2089 steps (ha, I'm just over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Our Unspeakable Privilege'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'My Daily Faith Confession (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Find Rest In God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and NINETEEN MINUTES online after I get home from table tennis!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am when dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and pulled the bathroom door shut, and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I knew he'd get ready to leave for his hard day's work exactly one hour later!
• Sure enough, I'm awoken for another pot :P trip one hour later exactly when dearest dad again very considerately walks silently along the hallway and unpops the lock into the garage; 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*
• After dearest dad kisses me bye, retucks me back into bed, pretends to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughs his head off when Pearl body slams him for the cheek and leaves for his hard day's work, we all happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more for the pot :P when PIG mum begins her a-THUMPING around upstairs. Suddenly she appears to hit me with the eye goo and grumble why isn't Bree here yet; I told Michelle the shift had to start @ 8am! She helps me exceedingly slightly with only the bra strap and the tee and I quickly pull everything else on after giving myself fifteen more minutes. PIG mum's helping me with my footwear when suddenly Bree arrives @ 8:30am!
• Bree helps me with my footwear, I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth, sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table with her.
• Breakfast is one slice of toast lightly smeared with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt, one bowl of Weet-Bix porridge, 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* While I'm eating, PIG mum yaps @ Bee and tells her about her nursing experiences since Bree's studying nursing @ uni right now; when talk turns to placements and Bree says I'm hoping I'll not get sent to NSW PIG mum knowledgeably replies, "Oh yeah, I'm heard you can get sent to places like Dumbo ..." I burst out laughing, replying, "Mother, I think you mean Dubbo, not Dumbo! Dumbo's the flying elephant from Disney!" Bree and I both immediately crack up, while PIG mum just pretends she didn't hear us. XD
• 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 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 passenger seat of Bree's car, she kindly helps me with my seatbelt (as she does all day) and then tootles me off to the NAB for my final session there for 2023!

• Physio today: thirty sit-to-stands with left and forward weightshift,  reaching for Era and hiked half the Great Court! Mrs. Hoppie was awesome and shouted me an iced dirty chai latte and I even bumped into Mr. Jennings!

• Back home, I used the loo once and then booted the computer up, sharing my GCCW story with Bree plus Alaistair's original story that provoked the reply.

• For lunch, Bree made me one tuna toastie with one slice of cheese; PIG mum made me one delicious big mug of Chinese tea and dessert was one little strawberry mochi!

• PIG mum says sit over the loo once more @ 1:55pm and then Bree's taking me to table tennis! She see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30, while I stay seated and enjoy watching the 6pm bulletin (Seven's) for the 150TH time!

• Toms: we're flying down to Sydney to attend Uncle Barry's daughter's wedding reception! Me, I'm looking forward to catching up with Madam Hippo and Aunty Diana!

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