Tuesday Post 463

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1872 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Five Reasons Death Is Gain'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Pray For A 'Sympathy Breakthrough" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's  'Precious To God'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Grr I missed out on getting an awesome night's sleep by like three minutes; nature randomly called @ 12:03am! Never mind, 'twas still a sound sleep~
  • Nature called again around 6:20am 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*
  • Nature usually calls hourly after that first daylight pot :P trip but happiness was snoring soundly with Pijum, Pearl and Bluekirby all the way until 7:35am, when dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock into the garage before waking again for the pot. :P
  • After dearest dad's kissed me bye, retucked me back into bed, pretended to suck Pearl's SEVEN pearls, laughed his  head off when Pearl body slammed him for the cheek, retrieved  Bluekirby for me  (since he's round, after he fell  outta bed he rolled outta reach XD) and left for his hard day's work, we all happily cuddle and snore, me waking once more foor the pot :P when PIG mum begins her usual daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Lena's later arrival @ 9:15am.
  • Lol, by the time Lena arrives, I've nearly fallen back asleep! I use the pot :P for one tinkle, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, then sit over the loo for one tinkle.
  • After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table.
  • Breakfast is two plain (no honey) Weet-Bix lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P on 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*
  • After breakfast, I sat 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 backseat of Rix, Lena kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt (as she does all day) and tootles me off to Breathe for physio with Jacky.
  • We're early, but head inside to wait since it's only cloudy but not raining.
  • Physio today: 1.468km bike ride, 36 sit-to-stands with left weight shift, shrugging to keep shoulders level, 36 shoulder press per hand and boxing! Pilates is lying face down, opening left thigh and moving left scapular.
  • Afterwards, Lena tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza and grabs a trolley for us before we buy groceries from Coles.
  • Our other stop's the Pinelands Bakehouse for my once weekly bahn mi. Didn't see Aunty Nancy today; Aunty Lisa served me.
  • Back home, I took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also, thanks to Lena who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious crackling pork bahn mi plus one huge mug of the green tea with the powder Aunty Nga sent me.
  • At 1:55pm I sat once more over the loo for two tinkles; I presume PIG mum signed Lena off and shooed her away coz when I was coming outta  the bathroom, Lena had already exited the front door. She's back same time next Tuesday.
  • Gonna goo read now for  one hour and hope for some arvo tea; got a Zoom meeting happening tonight!
  • Toms: seeing Aunty Anna for some massage and acupuncture. Bet PIG  mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ her. XD
  • Think Jacinta's taking me to table tennis afterwards?
  • Then guessing GG's back @ Peter  Pie's/Dr. Lee's place?
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^@^
