Thursday Post 610

 Good afternoon! Firstly, Em's final, final plodding total for Wednesday actually 4836 (lol I was nearing half a normal person! XD); secondly, Joni's devotional topic from last night's 'Assurance'; thirdly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3547 steps (ha, I'm just over 3.5 grand XD, fourthly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "The  'I Will' Of God"; fifthly, TWFT topic's 'Help For Your Marriage' and sixthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Our Calling In Christ'. Anyways, just super-briefly,  lemme cover yesterday's events first!

• Hiked Underwood Park with PIG mum, came home for lunch with dearest dad, played table tennis in the arvo and had GG Bible study @ night!  
• Last night's Bible study was from 1st Timothy chapter six and next week's a social! I'd been hoping we could have a proper meal out @ some restaurant together before doing (whatever) but Susannah's already decided we're BYOing dinner then decorating sth @ her place? Doesn't matter; sounds like fun anyway! But just wonder when I'll next get a proper meal out ...
• Repeat the usual nightly events after getting home and zzz~
• Today: yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 7:00am 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*
• Around 7:45am PIG mum hits me with the eye goo before rushing out to go hiking with Aunty Irene!  But wasn't Karina's replacement coming @ 7:30am like she usually does?
• Nope, Violet didn't arrive until 9:30am! Dad gave me fifteen more minutes but when she came back five minutes early Daddy Bear rather crossly shooed her away.  XD
• When she came back, I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, we got me kitted and them I headed over to the bathroom and brushed teeth before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. 
• After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Violet. For breakfast, she feeds me one bowl of warmed healthy cereal with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly smeared with avocado and sprinkled with salt. I also pop all my usual drugs :P   and drain 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, Violet accompanies me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing up my breakfast stuff. Over the loo proper, 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 Violet's car, and she tootles me off to Underwood Lale for a hike! I put away my mobile once she rounds Underwood Road to help her find the walking trail. XD Thanks to her who helps me buckle my seatbelt both ways~

• Since it's perfect weather for a hike around the park (only very slightly sunny; not hot yet), we see lotsa dogs, baby strollers and even one male carer pushing his very disabled client in a wheelchair! Only the water dragon   and turtle were hiding today?

• Once Violet tootles me home I take a nice hot shower - hairwash  today. Also thanks to   Violet who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing   Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.

• Dried, creamed and rekitted, Violet makes me a tuna toastie with TWO cheese HEAVILY buttered on the inside for lunch and mixes me one packet of powdered HK-style milk   tea.

• Since Violet's shift ended @ 1:15pm, @ 1:10pm I sit over the loo once more for two tinkles before saying my thanks and byes to her.

• Once I've used up the most important two hours of my day I'll use the loo for one tinkle, sit @ the gobbling :P table to read Phoenix Flame for one hour and wait for PIG mum to gimme some arvo  tea. She's yapping @ Aunty Irene now; they returned from their hike shortly after Violet left.

• Planning to watch the 6pm news (Nine's) for the 172ND time, wolf down dinner once the news ends and be seated on the couch by 7:30pm when coverage for the Broncos vs. Storm game begins!

• Toms: I've got two hours of physio with Jonah and Lachlan, but the roster still says TBA for whoever's helping me up toms morning and taking me!

• She'll see me home, showered and fed with lunch before leaving @ 2pm and then Dorrie's coming    @ 2:30pm and cooking  sth with me!

• Will eat whatever I'll cook for arvo  tea, read Phoenix Flame for another hour then watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 173RD time!

• Anyways, hopefully  bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
