Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3089 steps (ha, I'm just over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Open The Windows Of Your Heart'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Keep Persevering And Refuse To Quit' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'True Basification In God' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ONE MINUTE online after Liam comes and gives Ela a session of OT!! Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, what better way to begin the week than with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 6:20am 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*
- Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore. Have forgotten whether/not I woke again for the pot :P @ 7:45am but I definitely before 9am, just before PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help me exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap (well, she also lays out the tee for me, but that's it) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first. That done, I call PIG mum to please finish with Elf's AFO straps and both laces; it's already 9:40am and I don't wanna be back inside my room for more sleep before twelve hours have passed!
- PIG mum eventually comes back and not only finishes with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Oh, she clips my toenails this morning, despite my protest that it's already late! In the end? I don't exit the room till 9:50. *sigh* That's alright; will just sit over the loo for longer tonight before entering my room. XD
- 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.
Cheers,
Em. ^^
