Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1570 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'When Will I Be Satisfied?'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'How To Have A Good Day' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Lavish Love' but fifthly and way most importantly I'm really still owed TWENTY-EIGHT MINUTES online after I shower!! Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:50am and after one pot :P trip I immediately try fall back asleep since I'm sure PIG mum'll get really noisy very soon!
- 100/150 breaths in (I'm nearly asleep again), noisy PIG mum goes THUMP and I realise falling back asleep's not gonna happen; instead 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*
- Shortly afterwards, PIG mum's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap and laying out the tee before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tee then giving myself fifteen more minutes first.
- PIG mum returns to finish with absolutely nothing bar Elf's AFO straps and both laces before I let her gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush teeth. That done, I sit over the loo for one tinkle, wash and dry Era then walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
- For breakfast, I munch one of the buns I'd helped PIG mum make yesterday! I also pop all my usual drugs :P and drain 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 I walk myself slowly and safely back to the loo, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over. 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 climb into the backseat of PIG mum's car and buckle my own seatbelt. She gets in, tootles us off to church and parks outside our service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the first cubicle of the normal ladies loo for one tinkle (the disabled loo had lid closed but horrid PIG mum wouldn't lift it for me), wash and dry both hands then grab my usual spot inside the service hall @ the most left.
- Yay, I get to stay seated for worship today. I sing everything, plus the harmony for three songs but like every other week meant absolutely NOTHING. >< *sigh*
- Speaker today's Pastor Peter Pie who starts a new sermon series called How People Change and service ended service ended nine minutes early today.
- After PIG mum collected me, I used the loo again, washed and dried both hands then hiked around to the back for arvo tea, where dearest dad already had a packet of bikkies and a paper cup of white tea ready for me.
- Uncle Simon wandered over for a chat; I screeched @ him how could the first penalty kicker just MISS the goal like that? Sure I played a right defensive back and can't aim for nuts but @ least I'd aim the ball @ the massive goal! Uncle Simon explained that the poor player was already exhausted after playing ninety minutes, extra time plus that extra block of extra time. Well, fair enough.
- It's been two MONTHS; I FINALLY enjoyed lunch out with my ESS peers today! Pastor Peter Pie gave me a lift to Mui G and I ordered the crispy chicken rice with a fresh HK-style milk tea ... so good!! <3 :D Over lunch I chatted with Jodie and Elena; whoops I originally called her doctor Esther!! >< XD
- Jodie tootled me home, telling me that she's just arrived home from a trip down too Tasmania with Ella's family! Wow I can't believe that they dared go during Winter; the parents and I went in Summer and were laughed @ for being Eskimos since wee were all rugged up! XD
- Back home, I used the loo for one tinkle, washed and dried Era then walked myself slowly and safely online, always rising above
the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him
push me over.
- After reading the day's Bible passages I headed over to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea (one yummy banana that I peeled myself, one plain cracker and one huge mug of green tea) but returned online afterwards since I couldn't see a book near me around for reading.
- When nature called I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the looo for one tinkle and back, rising above
the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him
push me over.
- Toms: not seeing Ray for some acupuncture and massage since he's holidaying interstate with his family! Instead, hoping the parents'll take me to see the new MINIONS movie in GOLD CLASS before we grab lunch somewhere!
- Jacinta's coming @ 2pm and taking me to Breathe for physio.
Cheers,
Em. ^^
