Friday Post 472

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2106 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'We Experience The Spirit Through Faith'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Influence And Impact Others'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Uncovered Sins' and fifthly, the spam count for the week's thirteen but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm still owed THIRTY MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news  (Nine's) for the 137TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  •   Yay, 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*

  •  Pijum, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9:15am when PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and wakes me. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before waiting for Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.

  • After PIG mum lets Peggy inside @ 9:30am, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door and announces good morning. I'm facing away from her and just flap one of Pijum's ears @ her. Peggy smirks and asks fifteen more minutes? Another earflop from Pijum and Peggy thankfully removes herself; phew, since 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 and 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.

  • Breakfast's one bowl of plain porridge with one slice of dry (unbuttered) multigrain toast 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, Peggy slathers my face with sunscreen and then I sit back 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 Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles me off to physio. Thanks to Peggy who helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.

  • Physio today: 2.002km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups, 36 step ups, 36 rows for Ela, 36 leg curls for Elf and boxing!

  • Afterwards, Peggy tootles us back to Warrigal Square, grabs a trolley and we buy groceries from Woolies. Phew she got the last packet of chicken drumsticks available!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
