Friday Post 409

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4796 steps (sweet I'm even over 4.5 grand; that happens even less frequently than four grand! XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic last night's 'The Main Purposes Of Ministry'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Let's Honour One Another" fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Small Beginnings" and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's "In God's Hands" (seems familiar?) but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the TWENTY-FIFTH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • Hmph, you'd think after enduring an 1.5hr session of physio yesterday I'd score an awesome sleep last night, but idiot nature called @ 12:4tam! Never mind, 'twas still a sound sleep otherwise. *sigh*
  • After the first  pot :P trip following the  Sun's rising, 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 once more for the pot :P around 9am, just before noisy   PIG mum begins her 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 Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After PIG mum opens the front door for Jane, Jane knocks, pushes open the bedroom door and says "Em? Fifteen more minutes, okay? Oh, good morning." Mini Pearl nods @ her and then flicks his body 'shoo'. Jane smirks and wisely withdraws; phew, since Mini Pearl's anatomically incapable of giving the Bear Bum! XD
  • After Jane comes back, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying Era, I head out to the gobbling :P table with Jane, who said she'd had her usual breakfast smoothie for breakfast.
  • For my breakfast I get one/two (hopefully two but it looked like one) dry (no honey) Weet-Bix very lightly sprinkled with some Minus :P, 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 Jane slathered my fac and both hands with sunscreen, she accompanied me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast stuff up. Over the loo, 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, before climbing into the passenger seat of Jane's car, I brace against it and she kindly takes a photo for me with the old car in the front; see, today the parents were taking it over to Springwood and trading it in! While I never drove this car, I voiced for it frequently, since it suffers from anxiety like me! Whenever PIG mum drives him, he's always beeping and wailing when his motion sensors detect anything approaching! XD
  • Jane tootles me off to Breathe for physio; as usual, we're early so I've got like seven minutes to play my newest downloaded version of Bejeweled before heading in.
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
