Friday Post 351

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2444 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Enjoying His Fullness'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Armed For Spiritual Warfare (1)'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Welcome The Stranger' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's just eight. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am 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*
  • Around 7:45am I wake again for the pot :P coz that's usually when dearest dad leaves for work but obviously not today since he's still not well and seeing the doctor later this morning!
  • PIG mum wakes me for one more pot :P trip with her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival.
  • After Peggy arrives, she knocks, opens the door and announces good morning. When Pijum flaps one ear @ her she laughs and this time announces fifteen more minutes. Another ear flap from Pijum and she thankfully leaves; phew, coz Pijum's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
  • When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's squirted me some toothpaste.
  • Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, who told me she had her usual two hardboiled eggs for breakfast today.
  • For my breakfast, I get one bowl of poor drowned :P Tiny Teddy fake chocolate cereal with two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix, 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*
  • Peggy accompanies back to the loo proper after breakfast and 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 Auto (pronounced Alto); Mr. Thomas has a new car, gave Peggy Autoo and Ulrich has been retired! Thanks to Peggy who helps me buckle my seatbelt all day and then tootles me off to Breathe for physio.
  • Hallelujah, the air con has been fixed! :D But somehow Connor has developed a CHICKEN allergy and needs blood tests?? Physio today: 1.2km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups with left weight shift, 36 split squats with left weight shift, 36 lat rows for Ela and boxing!
  • Afterwards, Peggy tootles us back to Warrigal Square, parks @ the Japanese convenience store shopfront (since all the disabled parks outside Woolies are taken) and grabs a trolley for us.
  • Groceries bought, she tootles me home and I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • Dried, creamed and rekitted, Peggy makes me a tuna in tomato and onion with TWO cheese and HEAVILY BUTTERED on the inside toastie for lunch and one cup of simply delicious Chinese tea.
  • Michelle from CODA's also over; PIG mum's signing some kinda agreement with her.
  • Peggy was meant to leave and I did sign herv off @ 2pm, but PIG mum kept yapping @ her and poor Peggy didn't escape until 2:05pm. XD
  • I sat over the loo for two/three tinkles before plopping online since PIG mum was adjusting Elf's AFO.
  • Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online I'll head over and read the Kylie Chan novel for one hour. Hopefully PIG mum'll feed me some arvo tea~
  • Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 47TH time!
  • Toms: hope PIG mum helps me up toms ... alas I don't get anymore weekend support. *sigh*
  • Fingers crossed for my fried egg and looking forward to my two big mugs of white tea with one big spoonful of honey!
  • Wonder will dad feel well enough to take me to play ping pong with him @ church toms?
  • Looking forward to reading the Kylie Chan novel for maybe three hours!
  • Anyways, fingers crossed I can bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
