Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2369 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Life And Death @ Christmas"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Pray For God To Heal You' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Who's My Neighbour?" Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am 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 once more around 7:45am and then once more 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 and give poor Elf a very brief rub, since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. That's alright: Era rubbed Elf for fifteen minutes and let her wear her sock to bed last night although obviously peeled it off first thing this morning! ~
- After PIG mum lets the new career in, she opens the bedroom door and tells me fifteen more minutes. Mini Pearl just flicks his 'shoo' @ her and phew, she leaves. XD
- Once the new carer returns, I sit up, introduce myself then use the pot :P for one more tinkle. Fay's only twenty-seven, comes from Sudan and has six siblings! She's also a single mum~
- We get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, before sitting over the loo proper for one tinkle, washing and drying Era and then heading out to the gobbling table with Fay.
- Breakfast is one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food (what Dr. Ku calls All-Bran XD) with 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, Fay slathers my face and arms with sunscreen then accompanies me back to the bathroom before going back to the kitchen and washing up the breakfast dishes. 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 passenger seat of Fay's car, and she tootles us off to Pinelands Plaza. Thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my groceries both ways.
- Outside Coles she grabs a trolley for us. Luckily, I remember that the milk's @ the back and Vicki was on the checkout today!
- Back home, I take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Fay who kindly helped me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly hut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch was my delicious crunchy pork bahn mi plus one huge mug of vanilla chai; just pity Fay couldn't find where the sneaky parents had hidden the sweetener!
- Lol @ first I thought Faye's shift ended @ 1pm hence why I'd sat over the loo for two more tinkles @ 1:55pm then booted the computer up, but when Fay said her shift wasn't ending until 2pm I returned to the gobbling :P table to play phone games since I somehow refound the HP version of Bejeweled on my mobile!
- Faye massaged Ela while I happily restarted the HP version of Bejeweled; when she stopped @ 1:55pm think I'd reached level twenty-four?
- After using the loo once more for two tinkles @ 1:55pm I said my thanks and byes to Faye. She lives really faraway, somewhere like Redbank/Greenbank Plains!
- Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online, I'll use the loo for one tinkle, ask PIG mum for some arvo tea and read for one hour before watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 234TH time.
- Toms: Jane's minding me from 1:30pm till 6:30pm. Wonder will PIG mum help me up and take me walkies somewhere before Jane comes. Table tennis has finished for 2025; unsure why PIG mum's not immediately changed the roster back to 4-6pm but hey, maybe we can go watch a movie today since PIG mum wouldn't take me today!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
