Friday Post 340

 Good evening! Firstly, today  I've been hard @ work plodding exactly 5300 steps (ooh I'm more than half a normal person today; that's rare! XD);  secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's  'Hedonism For Husbands And Wives'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Thrive In Enemy Territory (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Carried Through'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until the noisy garbage truck  THUNDERED down our road (actually, before thundering comes the groaning; that's enough to wake  me!) and started tipping bins @ 5:25am (my favourite thing about the warmer month's prolly how early the Sun rises!); after tugging off Elf's sock and 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* .Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
• Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, nature calling again around 9am. Approximately fifteen minutes later, dearest dad lets  himself into my room, kisses me awake and says fifteen more minutes.
• Only Jane arrives two minutes early! "Two  more minutes!" I screech when I  hear dad walking down the hallway to open the front door for Jane; clever dad lets her inside and goes through all the how are you niceties before letting Jane tap me up after two minutes have passed.   XD
• I use the pot :P  once more for three tinkles, we get  me kitted then I head over to the bathroom 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 Jane.
• Breakfast's only one dry (no honey) Weet-Bix lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P), 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, Janes covers both arms, my neck and face with sunscreen then walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast stuff up. Over the loo 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 Sally the Stonic and Jane  tootles me  off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to her who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day.
• Physio today: 1.609km bike ride, forty bar-assissted push ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with more left weight shift, forty steps for Elf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, tennis ball throwing and catching for Era and boxing 🥊!
• After one loo  trip, I climb back into the passenger seat of Sally and Jane tootles us back to   Warrigal Square and I buy groceries. Yay that the carers all leemme sit on the self-serve checkout machines while they scan the items~
• Back home, I take a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to Jane who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Jane to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch was one bowl of rice leftovers (thanks to Jane for making  it  tasty  by adding some oyster sauce for me) plus  one mug of unsweetened white tea. Jane says don't worry; you'll get sweetener toms!
• Sat over the loo for two more tinkles  before signing Jane off with my thanks and byes; she's back toms 9:30am till 1pm.
• Dad stuck extra dressings over Elf  and then I climbed into the backseat of the Chery and buckled my own seatbelt: duck hunting expedition, commence!
• Dad first tootled us off to New Farm Park, unloaded me into Sparkless3 and we started searching for the duck along some boardwalk.
• Not finding it, dad instructed me to ask some waitress minding some empty restaurant. I got her attention and explained we're duck hunting; where's that giant pink inflatable?? She laughs and replies you're too up/downriver! She names some place that dad recognises;  dad says thanks and we  leave.  A short while latter, dad crows aha, I found it! Only his bum's facing us; dad snorts how rude and originally considers catching the City Cat to get closer to it but in the end decides nah and we just wheel me around to it.
• After lotsa happy snaps dad tootles us back  for an early dinner @ Market  Square! We've gotta park on the  rooftop and after I sit dad demands I move once but we shared some 'bowl jai farn' (say that in Canto); we also bump into Kitty and Kenneth!
• Back home I use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely online, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
• Toms: Janne's minding me 9:30am till 1pm. After brushing teeth and doing a stinky unspeakable  I'm showering immediately since Kenny's popping over with breakfast around 11am! He's a Hongkie physio who was  my NAB student many years ago!
• But he's got another client @ 1pm; unsure will Jane take me to play  table tennis with dearest  dad @ church before leaving @ 1pm? If not, expect a super-pissy plodding  total from me. Also unsure should I read for three hours/watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 205TH time?  Prolly the former since I've gotta read  tomorrow's Bible passages ...
• Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing weekend ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
