Thursday Post 442

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2354 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic' from last night's "Forgiven For Jesus's Sake"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Always Be Open-Minded (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Of Justice' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-EIGHT MINUTES online should I get to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 143RD time!! Actually I won't, so I'm really still owed ONE HOUR online after I get home Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like the past two nights nature didn't call until 7:10am; 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*

   

• Afterwards, Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again around 8:15am for the pot :P when dearest dad comes and kisses me bye before going to play badminton with Uncle Chong and other people! I sit up and give him a great big hug, wishing him and PIG mum a very happy 40TH (pearl!) wedding anniversary and remind him to pick somewhere for dinner tonight before PIG mum flies back to Hong Kong~

• Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore for another hour, nature calling once more shortly before PIG mum negins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with not only the bra strap but the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.

• 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 out 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 bowl of healthy cereal with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, 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 bathroom, 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 own seatbelt. She gets in too and then tootles us down the road to Warrigal Square, where we buy groceries from Woolies.

• Back home, I use the loo for one tinkle and then sit @ the gobbling :P table.

• PIG mum feeds me an early lunch of a tuna in tomato and onion toastie with one slice of cheese cut into two rectangles and one mug of delicious Chinese tea.

• Nisha's five minutes late coming to drive me to the NAB for physio;turns out she was stuck in traffic. Since I've got her number, I started ringing her five minutes after her due time but suddenly PIG mum calls that Nisha's arrived!

• NAB physio today with Dana: Forty sit-to-stands with left and forward weightshift,  stepping for both feet at the parallel bars and also stepping down and sideways off a block.

• Awesome Nisha shouted me a dirty chai! Hence I didn't rouse @ her for pulling over and refuelling @ the 7/11 petrol station; there's actually a KFC there!

• Back home I showered my quickest - hairwash today. Also thanks to Nisha who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea was one yummy banana, abouut half a flavoured cracker and one big mug of delicious Chinese tea. Happiness was reading pg. 333 @ exactly 54:05pm and reaching pg. 350 @ 4:17pm.
  Cheers,
