Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2299 steps; secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'Passionate For God And Truth'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Freed From The Drama Of Emotions' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'God Will Act'. Anyways, events for today?
- Nature actually called once just before midnight, but I was back in bed before the new day arrived so yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! PIG mum woke mw with her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs and after one pot :P trip I immediately fell back asleep since I was certain she'd get very noisy again one hour later!
- Like clockwork, @ 6:20am noisy PIG mum wakes me again with noisier a-THUMPING around upstairs; after another 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*
- Around 7:30am, PIG mum lets me into her room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
- 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 and 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 was one bowl of Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very thinly with 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*
- After breakfast, 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 since PIG mum had already deliberately closed the loo lid. *sigh*
- After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my seatbelt (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us off to church and parks outside the service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the first cubicle of the normal ladies' loo for one tinkle (since the disabled loo had the lid down but horrid PIG mum wouldn't lift it), wash and dry both hands and grab my usual spot for service @ the most left in the back. PIG mum checks I've got everything I need and rushes upstairs for the Canto service.
- Yay I get to stay seated for worship today~ I sing everything, plus the harmony for all four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
- Speaker today was Pastor Kevin Bird; his sermon topic was Moments In Time.
- After service ended, I used the bathroom again (still the normal ladies since this time the disabled was occupied), grabbed one piece of morning tea and sat in my usual spot outside the service hall.
- Aunty Denise wandered over for a chat; she's going to Singapore and HK soon!
- Lunch was back @ the Rochedale Hungry Jack's but with Uncle Calvin, Aunty Yvonne and Uncle Stephen! Dad shook a cheaper Whopper and I shook a cheaper Bacon Deluxe so I thought we'd go half each when dad demanded we share but instead he only left me 1/4 of the bacon deluxe and like 1/5 of the Whopper plus barely ten chips! >< I feel ripped off. >< *hmph*
- Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle and then walked myself slowly and safely back online, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
- Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo once and then sit @ the gobbling :P table to read Lessons In Chemistry for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo tea.
- Think dad's already said we'll have dinner tonight @ Ho Lin Wah; oh, I'd better check and find out when I'm meeting Fr. Paul there for lunch! From memory, Friday ...?
- Actually, nope: not toms but the Monday after! XD
- Not seeing Ray toms since he's gone to Cairns! Perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me?
- Ooh, maybe I can persuade PIG mum to take me for a serve of shaved ice; it's my final goal for Summer!! XD
- Daisy's minding me from 4-6; fingers crossed I can read Lessons In Chemistry for another hour!
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
