Saturday Post 290

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3047 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Our Toothless Enemy' thirdly, TWFT topic's "Blind Chance Vs. God's Command (2) and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Meaning 
Of Myrrh' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ONE MINUTE online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 6th time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Nature called once around 12:20am; I used  the pot :P again around 6:20am 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*
• Around 7:45am I wake again for the pot :P when dad comes to kiss me bye and say he's gonna do sth @ Uncle Slam's house. "What time are you coming home?" I asked him. "PIG mum's gonna meet her former workmate for morning tea @ Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown and personally, I reckon I'm fine @ home by myself but you two don't think it's safe?" Dad goes yup and I'll come back and take you grocery shopping @ Underwood Marketplace after PIG mum leaves.
  
• More happy snorings for Pijum and I after dad leaves; I wake once more for the pot :P before noisy PIG mum starts her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. 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. Whilst doing so, 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
