Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 991 steps (so must've passed 1000 before Tuesday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'to Your Tears'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "Responsibility And The 'Ability To Respond'" and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Harvest His Blessings'. Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 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*
- Afterwards, Daddy Bear and I cuddle for a MASSIVE snore: I slept through the usual nature calling @ 7:56am and didn't wake again for the pot :P until nearly 9am! Shortly after the second pot :P trip PIG mum begins her daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs; soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and give poor Elf's ankle a very brief rub since she'd totally ignored my poor foot last night. Doesn't matter, Era rubbed Elf's ankle for fifteen minutes last night and let her wear her sock to sleep last night but obviously peeled the sock off first thing this morning. XD
- Once PIG mum opens the front door for Peggy, she knocks, opens the bedroom door and announces, "Good morning." When Daddy Bear gives a paw flop @ her, she next states, "Fifteen more minutes.". Daddy Bear gives one more paw flop signaling 'yes' then imperiously flaps his paw going 'shoo'! Peggy smirks but wisely closes the door and leaves us be, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
- After I've counted down from 900, I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce that I'm hungry to Peggy. She comes, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Thanks to Peggy who's already 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 that she had her usual two fried eggs for breakfast this morning.
- Me, breakfast's one/two 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 breakfast, Peggy slathers sunscreen over my face and both hands before accompanying me back to the bathroom then returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast things 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 I climb into the passenger seat of Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles me off to Pinelands Plaza, grabbing a trolley for us after parking. Also thanks to Peggy who kindly helps me buckle my seatbelt all day~
- First, we buy groceries from Coles; when I next pop into the Pinelands Bakehouse to grab my once-weekly crunchy pork bahn mi, Aunty Nancy greets me beaming with a belated Easter present: a small packet of Lindt milk chocolate balls!
- Our other stop's Sunnybank Plaza for the Ben And Jerry's ice cream!
- But WHOOPS: April the 14th's AMERICA'S Free Cone Day, Brisbane's isn't until May the 5th!! XD
- Instead, Peggy took me to browse Kmart - and I had SO MUCH FUN WINDOWSHOPPING!! :D
- Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
- Came home for a nice hot 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 crunchy pork bahn mi plus one huge mug of yummy earl grey tea; the only pity was that Peggy couldn't find where the sneaky parents had hidden the sweetener! >< XD
- Peggy got PIG mum to sign her off @ precisely 2pm but mother was her usual yappy self and wouldn't let Peggy escape for another five minutes. XD
- Took plate to sink, used loo for one tinkle, did my daily Bible readings then plopped online.
- Thanks to dad who's already saved me some rice for arvo tea~
- Jacinta's taking me to Toastmasters @ 5:30pm; looking forward to seeing Jack again!
- And Teresa biu jie's coming up from Melbourne; I've not seen her since 2012!!!
- Toms we're just doing touristy stuff with biu jie and PIG mum's already cancelled my support. >< *sigh* GG's still on term break; wonder will dad take me to church to play table tennis with him/are we still out with biu jie?
- Anyways, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
