Tuesday Post 462

 Good afternoon!  Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1862 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Do Not Harden Your Heart'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Don't Burn Out (2)" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Sins Remembered No More'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, for the first time in three days, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:20am, and 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*
• PIG mum beginning her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs wakes me for another pot :P trip; 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. I also share with PIG mum the newest dream I remembered: I'm observing a stack of people all lying on top of each other! PIG mum just pities the poor squashed person down @ the bottom. XD
• PIG mum finishes with my AFO straps and both shoelaces before I head over to the bathroom and  brush teeth. After sitting over the loo for one tinkle, I wash and dry Era and then walk mmyself 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 (28TH time I've had to get myself cutlery this year ><) breakfast is two plain (no Weet-Bix with some Minus :P scattered over the top, 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*
• Lena arrives @ 9:45am this morning since she had some tradie fixing the locks @ her new house. PIG mum leaves her the keys, grocery list and money before leaving for her pilates class.Before leaving, 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 Lena's car and she tootles me off to Breathe. Thanks to Lena who helps me buckle my seatbelt all day~
• Physio today: 1.283 km bike ride, 36 shoulder press per hand with 4kg dumbbell, 36 sit-to-stands with left weight shift, four rounds (fifteen reps) pulling the reformer and boxing!
• Afterwards, Lena tootled us off to Pinelands Plaza and got a trolley for us. After buying groceries from Woolies we ducked into the Pinelands Bakehouse and I bought a crackling pork bahn mi from Aunty Lisa.
• Back home, I took a nice warm 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.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is my delicious crackling pork salad roll plus one big mug of white tea. Just pity that horrid PIG mum's hidden the sugar. >< *sigh*
• At 1:55pm I sit over the loo for two more tinkles while PIG mum signs Lena off and shooes her away before I come out.
• Once I've used  up the most important two hours of my day I'll head over, read for one hour and then wait for PIG mum to finish her arvo nap and gimme some arvo tea.
• Dolly from Staffing Options will take me to Toastmasters tonight but I'm only expecting four people to turn up since Aarunan's already said he can't make it. XD
• Looking forward to getting dinner from Maccas never mind that Unhappy Meals were what I had like three DECADES ago!! *sigh*
• Toms: PIG mum'll help me up toms, since she's taking me to see Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. I'm looking forward to Aunty Anna's firm ministrations; bet PIG mum's simply DYING  to yap unceasingly @  her. XD
• Toa's taking me to play table tennis toms arvo; should send Kim an e-mail asking will she please gimme a lift to the last table tennis comp for the year since I've not enough funding for Mel to take me.
• Unsure what's happening with GG yet; will ask.
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
