Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 5204 steps (sweet I'm already more than half a normal person; that's rare!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's "Is God's Love Conditional?"; thirdly, TWFT topic's "You Will Never Be Perfect Enough (1)" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Continual Praise to God'. Anyways, events for today?
- Woo hoo, 9th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am, 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*
- Having misplaced Mini Pearl during the night (he prolly rolled outta bed himself, the messy sleeper XD) I happily snore, waking again for the pot :P around 8:30am. After a second tinkle, 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*
- When dearest dad opens the door for Jane @ 9:30am, she knocks, pushes open the bedroom door and bids me good morning. When I nod Mini Pearl @ her, she says I'll come get you up after fifteen more minutes, okay? Mini Pearl nods again and phew; Jane removes herself. Phew since Mini Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
- Only when Jane dares to return forty-one seconds too early, Mini Pearl loudly protests "Forty-one more seconds!" I'm sure I didn't fall back asleep today! Jane just laughs and replies I'll give you one more minute, okay? Well, I only needed forty-one more seconds; after that was up, I announced "Jane, I'm hungry" and swung myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle.
- After we got me kitted, I headed over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. That done, I drank one tall cup of water then sat 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 Jane, screeching @ dad this morning was my fried egg day, and I wasn't having bird food! XD
- Breakfast is my once-weekly fried egg on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast, another full cup of water, all my usual drugs :P and my first big mug of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey. Over and after breakfast, I happily read for thirty minutes first up.
- Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
- Hiked Underwood Park then bought groceries from Woolies Underwood MarketPlace.
- Took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Jane who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was one delicious bowl of the fried rice I'd cooked with Dorrie yesterday plus two more big mugs of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.
- Sat over the loo for two more tinkles @ 1:55pm then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes @ 2pm. She's back toms @ 7:30am to help me up and take me to church but will need to ring on-call and find out who's coming 1:30pm till 6:30pm.
- Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online I'll use the loo for one tinkle, sit @ the gobbling :P table and munch my arvo tea sushi and read all arvo; it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
- Toms: Jane's helping me up @ 7:45am (she'll arrive 7:45am and take me to church. The shift ends @ 9:30am but since she's already declined my invite to stay for ESS I'll sign her off before 9am.
- Will haveta ring CODA on-call and ask who's minding me from 1:30pm till 6:30pm coz the roster still says TBA.
- Also, will dad take us out for dinner together afterwards?
- Anyways, hopefully bbl else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
