Monday Post 462

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2213 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Do You Neglect Your Salvation?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'God Can Cancel Your Past (3)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Persistant Pizza'. Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called one around 1:50am last night; I used the pot :P again around 6:30am 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*
• PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs wakes me for another pot :P trip shortly after 8am; soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing but the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
• PIG mum comes back to finish with absolutely nothing bar E;f'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 (20th time I've had to get myself cutlery this year), breakfast was the last chocolate muffin I made with Grace last last Friday! Hopefully can make them again soon; that recipe's a keeper~ I also slurp one bowl of Minus :P, pop all my usual drugs :P and drink 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 back to the toilet, 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 climb into the backseat of PIG mum's 4WD and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). She climbs in too and tootles us off to Calamvale Central, parking underground coz it's looking overcast.
• We buy groceries from Woolies and then some fresh produce from the  Mega Discount Fruit Market. We also bump into Ray! PIG mum recognises him immediately; me with my terrible facial recognition takes several more seconds to register the face and mutter to PIG mum, "Was that Ray?" by which time we've already walked past him. XD
• Then I go see him for some massage and acupuncture. PIG mum's in her element obviously, yapping endlessly @ him; my grateful thanks to Ray who always replied and kept a conversation flowing. PIG mum controlled her excitement @ getting to yap pretty well today; she only repeated one word twice and another three times. XD
• Back home, I Whatsapp videochat dearest dad while PIG mum makes me a tuna toastie with one slice of cheese for lunch. Dad's meeting up with Uncle Kelvin Cham, Uncle Albert Cham and Poon sarng and Poon tai for yum cha soon; gosh, they must be in their like nineties by now! 
• After one more loo trip I walk myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
• Rebecca's minding me from 4-6pm; fingers crossed I can read for one hour!
• Also looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 151ST time!
• Toms: Lena's minding me 9-2. Am grumpy that physio's 1.5 hours again; will officially haveta endure MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED HOURS of blasted physio this year!! >< *sigh*
•  Will presumably buy groceries from the Pinelands Coles afterwards; fingers crossed PIG mum'll also lemme buy a yummy crackling pork salad roll and a Vietnamese iced coffee from the Pinelands Bakehouse!
• Don't have Toastmasters toms night so was originally just gonna have a quiet night @ home but since PIG  mum's gonna play badminton with her mates but she reckons I'll burn the house down if left on my lonesome, she's got Rebecca taking me out to Ho Lin Wah for dinner! Rebecca's coming @ 5:30pm; wonder if PIG mum'll lemme watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 152ND time before going out?
• Ooh fingers crosssed either set meal will suit  me and I'll have enough change left over  to buy a drink from Gotcha next door!!
• Anyways, hopefully bbl after dinner else wishing everyone a smashing day  toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
