Thursday Post 293

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1970 steps (so must have passed two grand before the day's out XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic's from last night's 'Served In Serving Others'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be Disciplined' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Strange Places but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed NINE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 22ND time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am and after one pot :P trip I fell back asleep right away since I knew PIG mum would get super-noisy one hour later!
  • Sure enough, @ 7:20am I'm woken for another pot :P trip after noisy PIG mum wakes me again for thew pot :P when she goes a-THUMPING around upstairs again. After another 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*
  • Around 7:30am, PIG mum lets herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and fifteen minutes later, she lets Angelica inside. Angelica knocks, opens the door, sticks her head inside and brightly calls good morning! I flap Pijum's ear @ her and she goes fifteen more minutes? Another earflap from Pijum and Angelica luckily removed herself; phew, since Pijum's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
  • When Angelica comes back, I use the pot :P once more for three tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era I head out to the gobbling :P table with Angelica, rousing @ her for not eating breakfast but she defends herself saying eating breakfast makes her nauseous?? 
  • For breakfast I enjoy one bowl of poor drowned (PIG mum's words, not mine! XD) Tiny Teddy cereal, 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 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 Angelica's car and she tootles me off to the NAB for physio. Thanks to her who helps me with my seatbelt all day~
  • The library doesn't open till 9am; when I approached the door the red light was still shining but once I reached and touched the door handle, 9am arrived, the light went green, and I was the first person inside the library! XD
  • After one loo trip, Angelica and I sat inside Meeting Room 1. Bob arrived, took a seat on his wheelie-walker and regaled us with how he'd caught COVID! Luckily, by the time he'd been infected, antivirals were available and mitigated the worst of his symptoms.
  • Suddenly, the librarian returns and says sorry, you guys are actually in Meeting Room Two! I grumble @ her but obediently hike over to the next meeting room. XD
  • Eleven attended today, one was new and Sattya bought mini cupcakes; I got two! Our next homework topic's 'blue' I'm planning to write about my blue underwear story! XD
  • The new guy wanted to sing a Polish song but everyone else starting leaving @ 11:58am; wonder why everyone's always in such a rush to leave?
  • Angelica returned, took me once more to the loo and tootled me off to the NAB while I munched my chicken kebab with chips and Angelica even bought me a LARGE chocolate milk tea with pearl! Her own go-to's passionfruit tea with pearl and she had a kebab too while buying mine; actually, the upstairs food court one closed down, meaning she had to hike to the end of the old Garbo downstairs food court to get my kebab!
  • Physio today: Thirty sit-to-stands with left and forward weightshift,  two TUG tests and one transfer from mats to plinth.

  • Cheers,
    Em. ^^
