Friday Post 329

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2769  steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Plan For Prayer'; thirdly, TWFTT topic's 'Live In Day-tight   Compartments (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily Bread's devotional topic's "Ready For Christ's Return." Anyways, events for today?

  • Woo 8th consecutive sleep lastt nightt! Nature didn't call until 6:05am 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* . Actually, since PIG mum’s overseas holidaying, I’m using the time to recharge my mental batteries and prepare for another year with her @ the helm! XD
  • Daddy Bear and I happily cuddle and snore, me waking again for the pot :P around 9am. Soon after that, dearest dad lets himself  into my room, kisses me awake and then gives me some eye goo before returning outside and awaiting Jane's arrival @ 9:30am.
  • After dearest dad lets Jane inside, he knocks, opens the bedroom door, sticks his head inside and says "Hi Em? Jane here now. Get up?" I reply "Fifteen more minutes!" and Daddy Bear imperiously flicks his paw 'shoo!' @ them! Dad laughs but wisely withdraws with Jane,  thus saving them from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
  • When Jane taps me up, I use the pot :P for one more tinkle, we get me kitted, I head over to the bathroom and brush teeth, sit over the loo for  one tinkle, wash and dry Era then head out to the gobbling :P  table with Jane.
  • Breakfast is one yummy bowl of flaky Special K, one little yummy egg tart that Aunty Amy gave me last night, all my usual drugs :P and one tall cup 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 breakfastt, Jane covers me (both hands, face, front and back of neck) with sunscreen then walks behind me back to the bathroom before returning to the kitchen and washing the breakfast dishes up. Over the loo,  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 Sally and Jane tootles me off to Breathe for physio. Thanks to Jane who kindly helps me with my seatbelt all day.

  • Jane decides to sit in the room with us today instead of waiting in the car. Physio today: 1.578km bike ride, forty bar-assisted push ups with left weight shift, forty steps for Erf with more left weight shift, forty steps for Erf, forty v-bar cable rows for both hands, forty leg curls for Elf, forty leg curls for Erf, forty leg extensions for Elf, forty leg extensions, tennis catching and throwing for Era and boxing!

  • Less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:

  • Bought groceries from Woolies Warrigal Square, got home for a shower then enjoyed a  bowl of the chicken I'd cooked yesterday with Ari on rice  and one big mug of white  tea sweetened with one spoonful of honey.

  • Used loo for two more tinkles @ 1:55pm then signed Jane off with my thanks and byes to Jane, who's back  next  Wednesday arvo for table tennis.

  • Did my daily Bible passage readings, used the loo for one tinkle then plopped online for myself.

  • Once I've used up my most important two hours online for today  I'll use the loo for one tinkle then head down to the gobbling :P table and ask dad for arvo tea. Won't have time to read for one hour since it's already 5pm.

  • Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 198TH time! 

  • Toms: Jacinta's minding me 9:30am till 1pm.  Presume we're buying my  honey chicken sushi roll for arvo  tea plus whatever groceries dad wants from Underwood MarketPlace Woolies.

  • Unsure will dad play table tennis with me toms arvo but pretty sure Jacinta will gimme three big mugs of white tea with  sweetener and I'm planning to  read for three hours toms;  Jane kindly already found the book for me!

  • Anyways, hopefully bbl, else wishing everyone a smashing weekend ahead!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
