Thursday Post 326

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3175 steps (ha, I'm over three grand XD); secondly, John Piper's daily  devotional topic from last night's "The Soul's Final Feast"; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be A Sower' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's 'Look  To God' but fifthly  and way most importantly, I'm really still owed FIFTY-TWO MINUTES online after I watch the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 178TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 7th consecutive awesome sleep last night! That's the 13TH time this year that I've achieved one consecutive week of  awesome sleeps! :D Like the past three days,  nature didn't call until  8am and after one pot :P trip and doing the bed exercises Winnie taught me tto  prevent further back pain, 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 again once more for the pot :P around 9am, shortly before noisy PIG mum begins her daily a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Louiza's arrival @ 9:30am.
• Once PIG mum lets Louiza into the house, Louiza knocks, opens the door and says  "Hi Em, I'll help you up in fifteen, okay?" Daddy Bear gives one paw nod then imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo' @ Louiza, who smirks but wisely does as she's told, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
• When Louiza returns and taps me, I grumble "Go away; we're sleeping."  She protests "But it's been fifteen minutes!" I retort "You didn't specify fifteen more minutes. You just  said fifteen; I'm taking that to mean fifteen more hours. Git." Louiza bursts into laughter, pats the covers and says get up again, to which I comply this time. XD
• I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted and then I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, before sitting over the loo for one tinkle. After washing and drying  Era, I head out  to the gobbling :P table with Louiza, rousing @ her for not having any breakfast this morning.
• Me, for breakfast I get one slice of dry (unbuttered) toast very lightly spread with avocado and hopefully very lightly sprinkled with salt, 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*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
