Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2166 steps (ha, I'm over two grand XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'God Works For You'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'You Can Learn To Love' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Love Worthy Of Our Life'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7am (and I reckon I deserved that awesome sleep since I'd spent two hours yesterday @ physio!) 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 more for the pot :P when noisy PIG mum goes 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 Karina's arrival @ like 8am.
- After PIG mum lets Karina inside, Karina knocks, pushes open the door and says, "Good morning; Emily ... hitting the snooze button for fifteen more minutes..." I wave Cowpig @ her and she thankfully leaves, thus saving her from the Bear Bum. XD
- When Karina comes back, I sit over the pot :P for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom to brush teeth. Thanks to Karina who's squirted some toothpaste for me. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era and then head out to the gobbling :P table with Karina, rousing @ her for not eating any breakfast this morning and ordering that she get herself some after buying groceries for PIG mum while I'm attending GCCW.
- For breakfast, I get one bowl of healthy cereal with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled 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* Also thanks to Karina who turns on Today for my viewing pleasure~
- After breakfast, Karina accompanies me back to the bathroom before returning to wash up my breakfast dishes. 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 passenger seat of Karina's car and she tootles me off to GCCW. Thanks muchly to her who helps me with my seatbelt both ways.
- Less that fifteen minutes left, so just very briefly:
- Attended GCCW: twelve attendees today, Anita brought cake and our next homework's revenge.
- Got home for a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one yummy tomato and onion sandwich with one slice of cheese plus one packet of powdered HK-style milk tea.
- Signed Karina off with my thanks and byes @ like 1:15pm. She's back same time next Thursday.
- Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle, start rereading the Philippa Gregory novel and wait for PIG mum to gimme arvo tea.
- Looking forward to watching the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 67TH time!
- Best of all, it's ice cream night toms night; like I always say, a very little's better than none @ all!
- Toms: it's my Freedom Day!! :D Seventeen years ago toms around 5pm, I drove (my manual wheelchair; obviously I lost my driver's license after getting the brain injury) outta the double locked doors of BIRU/the insane asylum XD, YELLING "FREEDOOM!!!" and hopefully leaving that awful place forever to the laughter of the nurses behind me! Peggy's coming @ 9:30am and taking me to Breathe for physio @ 11, after which we'll prolly buy groceries before coming home for shower and lunch. Doing some cooking with the OT afterwards but mostly I'm hoping Fi and bubs will come celebrate my Freedom Day with me and bring cake! XD
- Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
