Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 5806 steps (more than half a normal person today; woot that's rare!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Let Goods And Kindred Go'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Living Life On Life's Terms" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Saving Lives'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 3rd consecutive sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:35am and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep in case dearest dad got ready to leave for work one hour later!
- Instead, I snored happily all the way till around 9am before nature called 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*
- Shortly after that, PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and soon afterwards, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night/
- After PIG mum opens the door for Peggy @ 9:30am, Peggy knocks and opens the door before announcing "Good morning." When Daddy Bear flops a paw @ her, she next states "Fifteen more minutes." Another paw flop from Daddy Bear and she thankfully removes herself, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
- After Peggy returns 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 kindly squirted some toothpaste for me.
- Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era 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 delicious bowl of flaky Special K cereal with sliced strawberries over the top plus one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled with 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*
- Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
- Did a stinky unspeakable and then Peggy tootled me out to Breathe.
- Physio today: Six minutes walking back and forth inside the Physio gym, 2.219km bike ride, 40 leg/bar-assisted pushups, 40 v-bar cable rows, 40 leg extensions for Elf, 40 leg curls for Elf and boxing! Winnie calculated and said I plod @ like 1.35/1.45km/hr now? Even more, she says next year she can do the 5km Bridge To Brisbane with me!! Just haveta find someone who'll push Sparkless3 for me while I'm plodding! Winnie said use what you know so instead of walking some with the rollator then letting the person with me push me along, I'll just walk 1km with Sticky and then sit for the next 1km, etc.?
- After one loo trip (CZ258 unlocks the female cubicle and the second cubicle's an ambulant one) Peggy tootled me off to Pinelands Plaza but unfortunately, couldn't find a park until one rooad across Ho Lin Wah! ><"
- Bought my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi from Aunty Nancy and groceries from Coles. Thanks to Peggy who lemme sit on and rest the tired legs while she took our items through the self-serve checkout; wonder why the parents won't lemme do that?
- Took a nice hot shower when I got home - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious crunchy pork bahn mi plus one cup o white tea; just pity Peggy couldn't find where sneaky PIG mum hid the sweetener. *sigh*
- Used loo for one tinkle and plopped online.
- Once my most important two hours of the day are up, I'll use the loo for another tinkle then eat arvo tea and wait for Lorraine to take me to Toastmasters!
- Toms: hope PIG mum's helps me up not too late and takes me for walkies somewhere before coming home for lunch else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.
- Tracey's coming @ 1pm and taking me to table tennis; fingers crossed for cake! XD
- She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm; I'm gonna watch the 6pm news for the 184TH time, hopefully!
- Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
