Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4936 steps (sweet I'm gonna pass half a normal person today! XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'God Rejoices to You Good; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Sacred Reminders' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Strength From Struggle'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 5th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:20am 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*
- Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am, just before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning back outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival @ 9:45am.
- But she soon comes back saying fifteen more minutes; Louiza's late! o_O I immediately start counting down from 900, reminding PIG mum please to ring CODA should Louiza have not arrived by 9:45am.
- But phew, she arrives shortly afterwards. PIG mum lets her in and just tells her to help me up @ 9:45am.
- When Louiza comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted then I head over and brush teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who tells me that she had oats and coffee for breakfast this morning.
- For me, breakfast is two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus with 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*
- Breakfast finished, I ask Louiza to please gimme some sunscreen before she walks behind me back to the loo. While she goes back to the kitchen and washes the breakfast dishes up, I sit over the loo proper and 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 Louiza's car and she tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to her who helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
- Only thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
- Physio today with Winnie: 1.878km bike, forty bar-assisted push-ups, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg extensions for Elf s, forty leg curls for Elf, forty steps for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!
- After one loo trip (CZ258 unlocks the female toilets and the second cubicle's an ambulant one), Louiza tootled me off to Rochedale Coles before coming home for a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers with one yummy huge mug of earl grey tea.
- At 1:55pm I sat over the loo for two tinkles then signed Louiza off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back same time next week.
- Toms: Jane's minding me from 8am till 1pm. She'll help me up, take me to the NAB for a two-hour session before seeing me home and showered.
- After she's gone, Ari's coming and giving Ela one hour of unfunctional exercises.
- Unsure have I time to read Wallaby Stew for one hour since I'm gonna watch the 6pm news for the 44TH time, wolf down dinner @ 7pm and be seated on the couch ready to watch the Broncos season opener against the Broncos @ 7:30pm!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
