Sunday Post 513

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1957 steps (so will definitely have passed two grand before the day's out XD); secondly, John piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'We Can Do Nothing'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Dealing With Stress-Producing People' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Communion With God'. Anyways, events for today?

• Woo hoo,  8th consecutive awesome sleep last night!  Nature had already called once before midnight but after one pot :P trip I slept soundly until 6:50am before waking again to relieve myself. Following that 2nd pot :P trip I immediately tried falling asleep again before PIG mum commenced her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs.
• Instead, I fell so deeply back asleep I didn't wake again until PIG mum let herself into my room and hit me with the eye goo! She also helped exceedingly slightly with the bra strap and tee (but not really; she only spreads the tee out for me) before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after giving myself fifteen more minutes first.  Whilst doing so, 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*

•  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 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 healthy cereal (Minus :P and the sticky All-Bran) plus 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 toilet, 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 gets into the car and tootles us off to church but today the carpark's like full and she parks like TEN cars from the ramp!

• I hike up the ramp, use the second cubicle in the normal lady's loo (the disabled loo's outta order), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot in the service hall on the most left. PIG mum   bolts back upstairs for the Canto service @ 8:48am.

• Yay I got to stay seated for service today~ I sang everything plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week, meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*

• Since Peter Pie's taking annual leave right now, Uncle Peter spoke today from the Living It Upside Down series about the beatitudes.

• Service ended twenty-two minutes early today; after PIG mum collected me I used the toilet myself again (fingers crossed the disabled loo's back working next week), grabbed a packet of bikkies then sat outside the hall.

• Uncle Yuk Tai and Aunty Denise wandered over for a chat and it's confirmed: I'm really going  to  SINGAPORE for the first time since 2005 (TWO PLUS DECADES) ago and visiting MINIONLAND!!! *explodes with excitement*

• But while everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ Mum's Wok, dad made me have lunch with him @ Hungry Jack's. *sigh* Originally, I was happy to have shaken a BBQ cheeseburger and medium shake, but the shake machine was outta order!! >< Juice and about ten chips for me. *sigh*

• Back home, I used the loo for one more tinkle 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 for one tinkle, sit @ the gobbling :P table to read for one hour and wait for PIG   mum to gimme some arvo  tea.

• Wonder where dad will take us out for dinner together tonight? The Thursday just past marked one whole WEEK since I've enjoyed a proper meal out; fingers crossed I'll get another one very soon!

• Toms: PIG mum should help me up since I'm presuming she's taking me to see Ray for some massage and acupuncture. Hopefully we'll grocery shop and walk aisles afterwards before coming home for lunch with dearest dad else expect a super-pissy plodding total from me.

• Actually, no! Angelica's helping me up @ 9am, taking me to the NAB for physio before seeing me home and showered then leaving @ 1/2!

• Doubt I've got anything happening after that; looking forward to   my most important two hours of the day online, reading the book club novel for one hour and watching the 6pm news bulletin for the 207TH time!

• Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing  everyone a smashing week  ahead!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
