Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3562 steps (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD); secondly, John piper's devotioonal topic from last night's 'God, Touch Our Hearts'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Do You Believe This'? and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Clothed In Christ' but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and ONE MINUTE online should I get to watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 68TH time!! Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 7:30am 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*
- Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking once again for the pot :P around 9am when woken by PIG mum's noisy daily 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 the carer's arrival @ 9:30am. Before she arrives, 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 PIG mum lets the carer in, she knocks, sticks her head in and says, "Good morning, Em; it's Gabby here. Fifteen more minutes, okay?" Pearl nods @ her and she thankfully removes herself; phew, since Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
- When Gabby comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. After drinking one full mug of water, I sit over the loo proper. 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 head out to the gobbling :P table with Gabby. Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with a very light spread of avocado, another full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and my first big mug of delicious white tea, sweetened with one spoonful of honey. I also happily read for thirty minutes first up.
- After one more loo trip, I climb into the passenger seat of Gabby's car. She kindly helps me with my seatbelt (as she does all day) before tootling us off to Underwood MarketPlace for grocery shopping. All the disabled car parks out the front are already taken but luckily, she finds one behind along the side.
- Gabby grabs a Big W shopping trolley for us, but upon entering and heading towards Woolies I note 3with distress that the sushi place isn't open! >< Luckily, Gabby says I may buy sth from the bakery instead; think it's called MySlice.
Cheers,
Em. ^^
