Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1068 steps (ha, I'm just over one grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Battle To Remind'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'What The Bible Teaches About Money'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Drop By Drop' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's just four. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am 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*
- Pijum and I happily snore for one hour, with PIG mum's noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs waking me again for the pot. :P Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee (since dearest dad's still @ home; you can bet your bottom dollar she'll not help toms) before leaving me to get the rest of myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes.
- PIG mum comes back to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf'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 to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting him push me over.
- Breakfast is one slice of the cake PIG mum spent last night baking! That's had with 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 walk myself slowly and safely back to the loo, 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 car and buckle my seatbelt. She gets in too and tootles us off to church, parking under the main hall. I hike up the ramp, use the second cubicle of the normal ladies' loo myself (since both the disabled loo and the first cubicle of the normal lady's loo have their lids down and horrid PIG mum won't lift it), wash and dry both hands and then grab my usual spot for service @ the most left.
- Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for one song but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
- Speaker today was Uncle Onny; with him today were three high school students, who all shared about their recent overseas missionary trip!
- After service, I used the normal ladies loo again, grabbed myself a packet of Arnott's bikkies for morning tea and sat down under the covered area. Yu Lam wandered over and told me that everyone was meeting for lunch behind the hall @ 11am and that she'd come and get me. Katie wandered over for a chat; she's starting her childcare course this week; TAFE is offering free courses! I told her that I was looking forward to hearing her cranky teacher voice. XD
- At 11:02am dad demanded I walk with him to behind the hall where EM lunch was being held; when I told him that Yu Lam would come get me, he lost his temper saying it's already AFTER 11am and she's obviously forgotten; move! You're gonna be late! Well, obviously I wasn't: 'twas only 11:02am when dad demanded I relocate; unsurprisingly, I was the first person to arrive @ the empty tables and sit down. XD
- Thanks to Dr. Esther who walked behind me for my plate of food; I got some fried noodles, fried rice, three boiled dumplings and almost one (but not quite) cup of watermelon juice! There was even delicious strawberry cake afterwards, made by Aunty Winnie!
- When people started leaving, I asked Uncle Peter may I call mum for pickup, and he says nah we'll drop you home! Just lemme move my car closer first.
- Aunty Carol walks behind me to their car - it's very fancy with leather seats!
- Back home I use the loo for one tinkle and then 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.
- Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day, I'll head over to the gobbling :P table and read; I've almost finished Enid's book! Hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea.
- Don't have any plans foor tonight ... dad's out having dinner but I'm unsure has he left mother and me anything to eat?
- Toms: late morning appointment to see Ray for some acupuncture and massage. Bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap ceaselessly @ him. XD
- Hopefully she'll take me grocery shopping and aisle walking afterwards, else expect a super-pissy plodding total from.
- Unsure who's minding me from 3:30pm till 4:30pm but apparently not Rebecca coz PIG mum says she's already left CODA?
- But Grace the OT's coming @ 4:30pm and cooking sth with me!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
