Good afternoon! Firstly, today 've been hard @ work plodding 4417 steps (sweet I'm already over four grand; that doesn't happen very often!); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'The '; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'What Will We Do in Heaven?' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Hold On To God'. Anyways, events for today?
- Woo hoo, 13TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:20am 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*
- Mini Pearl and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P once around 7:45am and once more shortly after 9am, just before noisy PIG mum begins her usual daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
- After PIG mum lets Peggy in, Peggy knocks, pushes open the door and just announces "Fifteen more minutes." Mini Pear's rather miffed that she didn't bid us good morning first and just flicks his body 'shoo' @ her but clever Peggy remembers before leaving and calls, "Oh, and good morning!" Mini Pearl bobs happily up and down @ her. XD
- When Peggy comes back, I use the pot :p for three more tinkles, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's squirted some toothpaste for me.
- Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P table with Peggy, who tells me she had her usual two fried eggs for breakfast.
- For my breakfast, I munch two plain (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P with one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast lightly spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt), all my usual drugs :P and one tall cup 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 Peggy slathers my face and both arms with sunscreen, she accompanies me back to the bathroom before returning too the kitchen and cleaning the breakfast stuff up. 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 Auto (pronounced Alto). Peggy tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Oh, and thanks to her who kindly helped me buckle my seatbelt all day.
- Physio today: 1.789km bike, forty bar-assisted push-ups, forty steps for Erf with left weight shift, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg extensions for Elf, sixty leg extensions for Elf, tennis ball catching and throwing for Era and boxing!
- After one tinkle (CZ258 unlocks the female toilet and the second cubicle's an ambulant one), when I climb back into Peggy's car pop! My right lens suddenly falls out! o_O Clever Peggy quickly uses a facemask and does a quick fix and then we buy groceries from Pinelands Coles (Vicki had already finished for the day) and buy my first crunchy pork bahn mi from Aunty Nancy @ the Pinelands Bakehouse for 2026.
- Got home and took a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
- Dried, creamed and rekitted, lunch was my delicious bahn mi (Peggy sticks it inside the sandwich press and makes it crunchy for me!) plus one yummy mug of vanilla chai, although unfortunately Peggy couldn't find where the sneaky parents had hidden the sweetener. *sigh*
- After lunch, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then plopped online.
- Lorraine's taking me to the first Toastmasters for 2026 @ 5:30pm!
- Toms: hopefully PIG mum'll help me up around 9:15am and take me for walkies somewhere before we come home for lunch, since Jane's not taking me to the first table tennis session for 2026 until 1:30pm!
- She'll see me home and showered before leaving @ 6:30pm; I'm looking forward to watching the 6pm news for the 10TH time!
- Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
