Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2471 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Pleased To Praise'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "History's His Story" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Authentic Son O God'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, what better way to end the weekend then with an awesome sleep last night? Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip I immediately tried falling back asleep again before PIG mum let herself into my room @ 7am!
- Aww, sleep didn't return before PIG mum came and hit me with the eye goo @ 7am. After she helped me with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying out the tops she left me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops and giving myself fifteen more minutes first. Whilstt doing so, 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*
- PIG mum returns to finish 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. That done, 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.
- Breakfast is one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with some avocado and hopefully sprinkled with some salt, 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*
- Breakfast finished, I walk myself slowly and safely back to the bathroom, again rising above
the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him
push me over. There,
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! Actually, I had to hike upstairs and use my upstairs bathroom, since PIG mum had already closed the lid of the toilet downstairs. *sigh*
- After washing and drying Era I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church, parking about seven cars from the ramp. I hike up the rqmp, use the second cubicle of the normal female toilets (since both the disabled toilet of the first cubicle of the normal female toilets have lids down but crummy PIG mum won't lift it), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot @ service to the most left.
- Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
- Speaker today was Pastor Peter Pie with his last sermon from the How People Change series and there was communion afterwards but service still ended thirteen minutes early today.
- After another loo trip I hiked around to the back for arvo tea but disappointment was not finding anyone to drive me to our picnic lunch, meaning Thursday three days ago already marked one whole WEEK since Im last enjoyed a proper meal out and dad made me eat Hungry Jack's with him again. *sigh* But I got a Whopper Junior (not a cheeseburger) and shook a medium choc shake, even though dad was a HUGE CHEAT who took a MASSIVE slurp from it before passing the cup to me! *sigh*
- But he lemme open the sunroof briefly while coming home~
- Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above
the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him
push me over.
- PIG mum's already bugged me about getting offline but after I've read for one hour I'm returning online and watching the Broncos' replay match win from yesterday!
- Having dinner @ home tonight before someone drives dearest dad to the airport for his three/four week trip back to HK~
- Toms: PIG mum'll help me up, since I've a late morning appointment to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. Bet she's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ him. XD
- Jacinta's back @ like 2pm and taking me to Breathe for physio.
- Buying groceries with her then coming home for a shower before Jacinta goes @ 6pm.
- Fingers crossed I can watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 187TH time, provided that I can watch it for the 186TH time tonight!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
