Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4849 steps (so should crack half a normal person today; that's rare!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When You Are Immortal'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Recognise God's Spirit Living Within You" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Lavish Love'. Anyways, events for today?
- Lol, after nature called around 1:50am; following one pot :P trip, I lost my knickers! ><" XD Didn't bother waking PIG mum up for it, since periods not arrived yet (so unfortunately have PMS right now ><) hence just fell back asleep, believing the knickers would reappear with the morning. XD
- Sure enough, when I was using the pot :P again the next morning, there the knickers were, on the floor! I tossed them back into the bed then pulled them back on after having a tinkle. XD
- 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*
- Nature called again around 7:45am and once more around 9am, shortly before noisy 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 before going back outside and awaiting Louisa's arrival.
- After PIG mum lets Louisa inside, Louisa knocks, pushes open the door and says good morning. When I nod Mini Pearl @ her, she says, "Fifteen more minutes, okay?" then quickly shuts the door before I can nod Mini Pearl @ her and flick his body saying 'shoo!' @ her! XD
- Once she comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth, before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, who tells me that while she's not eaten any breakfast yet, she's @ least had her morning coffee! I moan I've got DEPRESSO since I've not had any EXPRESSO yet. XD
- For breakfast, I get one/two dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, all my usual drugs :P and one full 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*
- After breakfast, I ask Louiza to please put some sunscreen on my face and hands. That done, she accompanies 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 passenger seat of Louiza's car and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown, finding a park along level two. Not a disabled park, though, since I've gotta cross the road to get inside.
- Following one loo trip, we first buy groceries from Woolies before heading upstairs and buying more groceries from Woolies.
- Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
- Read a Feist novel for about thirty minutes; I thought he'd retired after publishing Magician's End, but he's published @ least two more!
- Got home and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Louiza who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was a tuna in tomato and onion toastie with TWO cheese and the inside HEAVILY buttered and one massive mug of delicious Earl Grey tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.
- Signed Louiza off with my thanks and byes @ 1pm. Think she's back same time next week?
- Toms: Jane's minding me 9:30am till 2pm. Presume we're buying cooking ingredients for my cooking this session this arvo with Dorrie?
- Fingers crossed PIG mum'll lemme grab lunch from Ho Lin Wah; last Sunday already marked ONE WEEK since I've enjoyed a proper meal out! Not a very cool pre-birthday month ... >< XD
- Hoping to watch the 6pm news for the 37TH time, once I've watched it for the 36TH time tonight!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
