Friday Post 470

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2242 steps (aww, how come I couldn't have plodded twenty steps less?? 2222 would've looked cooler! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The Triumphant Shame Of The Cross'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Meditation For Beginners'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "God's Heart For All" and fifthly, the spam count for the week's fifteen but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and THIRTY-ONE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 178TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck THUNDERED down our road @ 6:05am to tip bins; 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
