Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2251 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Delayed Deliverances'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'When God Shows Up' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Reverent Fear'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 6th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:45am and after one pot :P trip, I immediately tried falling back asleep since I knew PIG mum would get very noisy around thirty minutes later!
- But sleep didn't return; instead, when PIG mum started her noisy daily a-THUMPING around upstairs, 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* 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 before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
- PIG mum comes back to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both shoelaces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom to 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 is one bowl of the less-yummy (so sticky) bird food very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly smeared with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with salI (PIG mum sprinkles the salt on the PLATE where the bread is and not on the toast itself XD), 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 loo, 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!
- 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 and parks outside the downstairs service hall. I haul myself up the ramp, use the disabled loo for one tinkle and then grab my normal spot @ service @ the most left. PIG mum hurries back upstairs for CSS @ 8:45am.
- When service begins @ 9am, I get to stay seated for worship, yay! Like last week, I sing everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
- Speaker today was Tyvus; his sermon was from the Hero/Zero sermon series. Wondering how I can get into contact with him ...
- After service ended, I used the normal ladies loo (since the disabled had the lid closed but mean PIG mum wouldn't lift the lid for me ><) and took a seat outside the service hall, since we'd ended so early morning tea hadn't even been set out yet!
- But I munched an Arnott's packet of biscuits and drank one Styrofoam cup of milk tea without sugar. Kwany wandered over for a chat as did Aunty Mel. Unsure why he offered to get me a bikkie when he went to get his kids some and then told my mum I'd asked him for them? I never asked; he offered! XD
- Everyone else had Korean food for lunch but dad made me go eat Hungry Jack's with him. *sigh* I shook a two-dollar small/medium chips and enjoyed about ten; dad also said he'd get me a milkshake but drank most of it himself. Since the air con was freezing, I drank most of PIG mum's disgusting free coffee because poor Era had broken out into goosebumps! >< XD But we were just about to leave when one of dad's baddy mates came to eat lunch too; while he and dad chatted, I happily played the HP version of Bejeweled - and passed three levels!
- 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.
- At 3pm I'll use the loo for another tinkle and then sit and read for one hour while waiting for PIG mum to feed me some arvo tea.
- Tonight's exciting: we're meeting Aunty A for dinner for dearest dad's early birthday meal @ the Calamvale BBQ and Chinese restaurant!
- Toms: it's the makeup Australia Day public holiday! Unsure will I see Ray for some acupuncture and massage/is he holidaying still? So perhaps expect a super-pissy plodding total from me, since I'll not get any support toms arvo, meaning no shower support. >< *sigh*
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
