Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2699 steps (ha, I'm over 2.5 grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic's 'How Christ Conquered Bitterness'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'More Responsibility Calls For More Prayer'; fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'The Way Wisdom Works' and fifthly, Joni's devotional topic's "Ups The Best Direction" but sixthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed THIRTY-FOUR MINUTES online after I use the loo once more @ 9pm!! Anyways, events for today?
- Yay, 3rd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Like yesterday, nature didn't call until 7:50am 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*
- Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking for one more pot :P trip shortly before 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 then going back outside and awaiting Peggy's arrival @ 9:30am.
- After PIG mum opens the door for Peggy @ 9:30am, she knocks, pushes open my bedroom door and announces good morning. After Daddy Bear flops a paw @ her she next states "Fifteen more minutes." Daddy Bear doesn't even bother with another paw nod this time; he just imperiously flicks his paw @ her shoo! XD Peggy smirks but wisely does as bid, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
- After counting down from 900 seconds I swing myself over to the pot :P for one more tinkle and announce "Peggy, I'm hungry ..." She's next door (in the bathroom) and immediately comes over. 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 says that she had her two usual fried eggs for breakfast today.
- Me, I only get one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast spread with avocado and lightly sprinkled with salt. I also drink one full cup of water, pop all my usual drugs :P and drink another mug of unsweetened 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*

After washing and drying Era, I climb into the backseat of Auto (pronounced Alto) and Peggy tootles us off to Pinelands, finding a disabled park near Coles and grabbing a trolley for us. Oh, and thanks to Peggy who kindly helps me with my seatbelt all day.
At Coles we both buy groceries and visit Vicki, who's working a checkout. She's extremely confident that QLD will retain the Origin shield toms night so yay for that!
Back home I use the loo for one tinkle then enjoy my toasted crunchy pork bahn mi plus one huge mug of delicious earl grey tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey for lunch.
At 12:15pm I climb back into the passenger seat of Auto and Peggy tootles me off to the NAB for two hours' physio with Sarah, arriving early enough that we spend ten minutes poking @ our smartphones before heading upstairs @ 12:50pm.
Physio today: 2x TUG tests, 2 10m walk rest, 1 six-minute walk rest, standing at portable steps with residents, left and forward weight shift and both hands ball tossing and eight laps short hallway walking with obstacle course.
Afterwards, Peggy tootles me home and I take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Peggy who helps me rinse out my hair, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
Dried, creamed and rekitted, arvo tea's one plain crackle, one yummy banana and one huge mug of herbal tea. Peggy cleans the bathroom and does her notes; @ 4pm I sign her off with my thanks and byes. She's back same time next Tuesday.
Over and after arvo tea I happily read for one hour, finishing page seventy-five @ 5:10pm.
Used loo for one tinkle, did my daily Bible readings then started compoosing my GCCW homework!
PIG mum got dearest dad to start dinner with her but without me but luckily dad invited me over @ 7pm. I used the loo for one tinkle before walking myself slowly and safely to the gobbling :P table, rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
Dinner tonight: rice, lotsa yummy broccoli, lotsa less yummy pawpaw, lotsa some other vegetable I've since forgotten, two three chunks of salmon and two thin slices of chicken.
Dinner was spooned down with one bowl of soup; after taking the bowl over to the sink I walked myself slowly and safely back online, again rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
When nature suddenly called @ 8:10pm I walked myself once more slowly and safely to the loo for one more tinkle and back, always rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.
Anyways, hopefully bbl after one more tinkle @ 9pm with my final, final plodding total for today, the final, final events for tonight plus what's happening toms else wishing everyone a smashing Wednesday ahead!
Cheers,
Em. ^^
