Sunday Post 330

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 1522 steps (ha, I'm just over 1.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional  topic from last night's "Satan's Strategy And Your Defense"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'God Has Different Ways To Get You There'  and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Living Water Of Christ'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep  last night! Nature had already called  once minutes before midnight but after one pot :P trip Daddy Bear and I happily  snored until either parent (probably dad; PIG mum does multiple THUMPS) went THUMP once and woke me again for the pot  :P after which I immediately tried falling back asleep  since I remembered PIG mum would come downstairs around this time!
  • Like 114 breaths into falling  back asleep another THUMP's heard and I give up  the plan of  falling back asleep. 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*
  • Soon, PIG mum lets herself into my  room to hit me with the eye goo and help exceedingly   slightly with absolutely nothing bar the bra strap plus laying out the tops before leaving me to get myself mostly independently kitted, which I comply with after immediately struggling into the tops first before giving myself fifteen more minutes.
  • PIG mum returns and finishes 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. Oh, and I started a new Colgate toothpaste last night, having finished the Harry Potter one. Don't get  to  brush my teeth with magic anymore. >< XD
  • Teeth brushed, 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.
  • Breakfast is one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very  thinly sprinkled with some salt (guess it's my inferior tastebuds that never taste any? XD), one full mug of water, all my usual drugs :P and another mug of Milo. 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*
  • Breakfast finished, 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 (what I do all day). PIG mum tootles us  off to   church and parks outside out  service hall. I hike up the ramp, use the third cubicle of  the normal female toilets (the disabled plus the first two cubicles of  the normal female toilets had  closed lids but horrid PIG mum wouldn't lift them  for me), washed and dried both hands then grabbed my usual spot @ the most left inside the service hall. Thanks to Bernard who's installed a heater inside there!
  • Yay I get to stay seated for  service. I sing everything plus the harmony for all four songs but like every other week, meant absolutely  NOTHING. ><  *sigh*
  • Today Peter (not our Pastor  Peter) spoke about the aroma of Christ and  there was communion afterwards but service still finished three minutes early!
  • When PIG mum came for me, I got to ask after Mel Mel who's thankfully getting better  after not  attending GG four days ago  since she was unwell.
  • I used the disabled loo once myself, hiked around to the back and sat  for morning tea, munching a pack of Arnott's bikkies (apparently  it's like  a SIN to put an  entire biscuit into your mouth??) and drinking one cup of  milky tea that certainly tasted like it didn't contain  any sugar, even though dad insisted he'd added some. Sure, prolly one grain. >< *sigh*
  • While PIG mum enjoyed her once weekly coffee and gossip session   with her aunty   friends and everyone else enjoyed lunch together @ My Pho in  Runcorn, dad made me  eat with him @ Hungry Jack's again.  Thursday just past already marks  one whole WEEK since I last enjoyed a proper meal out so yay that apart from getting a Whopper Junior  and exactly ten chips, I  shook a cheap  medium  shake and dad lemme drink most of it! Best  of  all, dad lemme open the sunroof both ways, meaning I spent the drives looking up  out into the blue sky rather than the traffic ahead.
  • Back home I used the loo for one tinkle 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.
  • Once I've used up the most important two hours of  the day online I'll use the loo for one tinkle then sit   @ the gobbling :P table and hopefully read the Matthew Reilly novel for one hour and wait  for  PIG mum to  come downstairs and gimme some arvo tea.
  • Apparently tonight we're meeting Aunty A for dinner tonight @ Ru Yi?
  • Toms: seeing Ray  for some massage and acupuncture before coming home for lunch with  dearest dad but unsure who's taking me to Breathe for physio yet.
  • Presume we're buying groceries before coming home for personal care; fingers crossed I can read the Matthew Reilly book for one hour and watch the 6pm news bulletin for the 171ST time, provided that I can watch it for the 70TH time tonight!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing week  ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
