Wednesday Post 444

 Good evening! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1987 steps (so must have cracked 2000 before the night's out); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Jesus's Pursuit Of Joy"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Nothing About You Surprises God'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Mind-Blowing Teaching'; fifthly, Em's final, final plodding total for Tuesday's actually 2432 (sorry, not quite 2.5 grand XD); sixthly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Glorified Bodies' and seventhly, Joni's devotional topic for tonight's 'To New Heights' but eighthly and way most importantly, I'm  really still owed TWENTY-SIX MINUTES online after I visit the loo  once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, just briefly, lemme cover last night's events first!

• At 1:10pm I sat once more over the loo and then @ 1:15pm Kelly took me to Breathe for physio.
• Physio was 1.65km bike ride, 36 assisted pull-ups, 36 step up for Erf, 36 single cable rows for Ela, 36 leg extensions for Elf and boxing!
• Bought groceries with her @ Warrigal Square Woolies and then went home for a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Kelly who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Happily read the Robin Hobb novel for one hour and reached pg. 275 @ 4:23pm.
• Nisha took me to Toastmasters! There was a record attendance (twelve) Toastmaster Viktor chose Circus for the theme and gave everyone circus nicknames; I was the Minion tamer! He'd bought along a HUGE lollipop and offered it to anyone who could juggle the longest; I tried and failed immediately but Neil managed the juggling for like ten seconds, won the lollipop, lemme take a photo then even GAVE IT to me!!
• Had an Unhappy Meal with an orange juice for dinner, got home, repeated the usual nightly events and zzz~
• Today: yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:10am, 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*
• Pearl and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking once for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum wakes me when she goes a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap 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. She's mean and won't lift the toilet lid for me, meaning after I brush teeth I return to my room and use the pot :P for one tinkle before rushing and drying Era back inside the bathroom and walking 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 lightly spread with avocado and hopefully sprinkled with some salt, 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* But huge thanks to Aunty Stella who went and lifted the loo lid for me~
• After breakfast, I walked 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 climbed into the backseat of the car and buckled my own seatbelt. Dad dropped off Aunty Stella and PIG mum @ Lone Pine koala sanctuary! We passed some park @ Fig Tree Pocket; PIG mum says that's where Jess Cheung lives now and when he drove past a park there dad tells me that's where the evil magpie nearly got me! o_O
• Once dad dropped them off, first he tootled me home to grab his water bottle and then we bought groceries from Warrigal Square Woolies.
• Lunch was yummy rice leftovers and was spooned down with one bowl of soup.
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
