Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1287 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Honour What We Enjoy'; thirdly, TTWFT topic's 'Healing For Shame And Condemnation' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Time And Struggles'. Anyways, events for today?
- Aww, I was hoping to score my 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night but nature called around 12:30am and spoiled it! Following the first daylight 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*
- Daddy Bear and I happily cuddled and snored, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am, shortly 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 outside and awaiting Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
- After PIG mum lets Jane in, she knocks, pushes open the bedroom door and calls "Good morning Em; fifteen more minutes." I just raise Daddy Bear @ her and she's already gone, thus denying him the chance to imperiously flick his paw 'shoo!' @ her. XD
- After counting down from 900 seconds I swing myself over to the pot :P once more and announce "Jane, I'm hungry." She comes, er get me kitted and 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 one delicious bowl of flaky Special K with all my usual drugs :P and one tall cup 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, Jane applies some sunscreen for me then walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing tthe breakfast stuff up. Over the loo proper, 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 and Jane tootles me off to Calamvale Central to get my cheap haircut from Go Cutt. I teach her the best place for parking then we catch the elevator up. Thanks to Jane who helps me buckle my seatbelt both ways~
- After a short wait, my number's called (the machine dings) and I head over to the chair.
- Today my hairdresser's Duk M Duk!! We manage a little stilted Chinese conversation. XD I like getting haircuts there; it's the only time I'm instructed to 'look down' since mother's forever harping "head up" @ me!! XD
- Haircut done, Jane tootles me home and I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Less than thirty minutes left, so just brief:
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch is one yummy tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and one huge mug of white tea. Sadly unsweetened but hey, still beats herbal tea any day! XD
- Jane gives Ela a very brief and light massage for about ten minutes, then @ 1:55pm I sit over the loo fore two tinkles before signing her off with my thanks and byes. She's back Wednesday 1:30pm for table tennis~
- Lunch over, I take the cup over to the sink, use the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then plop online for myself after reading the day's Bible passages. Started Ecclesiastes today~
- Toms: Peggy's minding me 9:30am till 2pm (not 4pm anymore since NAB physio's done for the year) then toms night Lorraine's taking me to Toastmasters!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
