Saturday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2534 steps (ha, I('m just over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When God Goes Against His Will'; thirdly, TWFTT topic's 'Ask God For A  Dream' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Imitating God's Forgiveness" but fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TWELVE MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Seven's) for the 105TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

  • #Woo hoo,  12TH consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 7am 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*

  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, nature not calling again till about 9am. Shortly after the second pot :P trip, noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs and it's not long before she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Jacinta's arrival @ 9:30am. While waiting for 9:30's arrival, 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 Jacinta hasn't appeared by 9:31am she immediately comes back inside saying she's late; fifteen more minutes but I reply I'm sure she'll show up but I'll start counting down from 900 now.

  • Sure enough, she turned up!  900 seconds later, I swung myself over to the pot :P and announced to Jacinta that I was hungry. She came immediately, explaining that she was away for Toastmasters since her boyfriend fell off his scooter, broke his toe and had an overnight stay in hospital, ouch! o_O

  • After one tinkle we got me kitted and then I headed over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. Then I drank one full mug of water before sitting 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!

    Cheers,
    Em. ^^

  • After washing and drying Era I head out  to the gobbling :P table for breakfast with Jacinta, who tells me that she had scrambled eggs for breakfast.
  • For my breakfast, I get one egg too!  That's fried and stuck on one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast with one slice of cheese. I also drink a second full cup of water, pop all my usual drugs :P and enjoy one big mug of white tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.
