Friday Post 325

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2396 steps (so will hopefully  have reached 2.5 grand before Friday ends XD); secondly, John Piper's daily devotional topic from last night's 'How Satan Serves God'; thirdly, TWFT topic's "It's You God Wants To Deal With' and fourthly,  Our Daily  Bread's devotional topic's 'Kindness Instead' but  fifthly and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and SEVEN MINUTES online after watching the 6pm  news bulletin (Nine's) for the 217TH time!! Oh, and when I obediently hit the sack @  the piss-early time of  9:45pm  last night, I was really still owed FORTY MINUTES online!! >< *sigh* Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night!  Like yesterday, nature didn't  call until 7:30am 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, nature calling again around 9am, just 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 before returning outside and awaiting Gabby's arrival @ 9:30am.
• After PIG mum lets Gabby inside @ 9:45am, Gabby knocks, pushes tthe door open and calls "Good morning Em; I'll  help you  up   in  fifteen more minutes, okay?" Daddy  Bear gives one paw nod then imperiously  flicks  his paw 'shoo!' @ her; Gabby smirks  but wisely leaves, thus saving her from the wrath of the Bear Bum. XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
