Good afternoon! Firstly, I've been hard @ work only plodding 605 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Good News: God Is Happy'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Try 2b FTactful' and fourthly, the spam count for the weekend's only eight but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and FOURTEEN MINUTES online this arvo!! Anyways, events for today?
- Woo hoo, 10TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am (no surprise here; noisy PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs and awoke me) 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*
- Sweet, after that I had such a happy snore nature didn't call again till around 8:10am, when PIG mum came to hit me with the eye goo @ like 8:10am! After another pot :P trip, 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*
- Carina arrived ten minutes early to help me up, but remembered to gimme fifteen more minutes first~
- After we get me kitted for today, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Carina who squirts me some toothpaste; Ela enjoys her first break this week~
- Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against
the side rail and spend minutes 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 head outside to the gobbling :P table for breakfast, which is one bowl of lumpy porridge with one slice of toast with avocado and a little salt, one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and another smaller mug of Milo. Over breakfast Carina and I just chatted and she gently massaged Ela for awhile.
- At 10am, I went and took a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Carina who helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
