woah! em has to type fast tonight, PIG mum says she's kicking me off at 9:30! so, today em was made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum><)to plod 2844 steps today, give or take. ok, about last night:
-repeat everything i wrote on tuesday. still the same. ><
-but thanks to PIG mum who let me off most of the exercises she likes forcing me to do every night. she only forced me to do one last night:
-put both hands together and raise them up straight 30x.
ok, get ready for the spotty points for the day!:P
-em and tonie couldn't believe our luck today - NO THERAPIES! the moon must be blue tonight. :P so tonie and i snored our heads off :P
-PIG mum came home to dig me up.
-PIG mum got me kitted for the day, then gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum><) me walk out to the gobbling table. :P
-brunch was 2 min noodles, lotsa vegies and a small but yummy piece of ham and egg. i washed that down with a glass of plain milk.
-PIG mum went to pig land :P while dear dad did sth even cooler - he's airing all my beloved bears!yup, they really all do have names! and i love them all. ^^
-i just read my janny wurts novel until alma/aman came.
-shower first - hairwash today. alma said she wasn't allowed to wheel me to the loo afterwards for a tinkle? i wonder why ... so i had a quick pee b4 she turned the nice warmish water off, and one more as she went hunting for my teds. (hehe, i used to mistakenly think they were called tets! :P)
-alma plopped me back into my chair and got my arvo tea - a yummy sausage bun and a cup of tetley's australian breakfast. and thanks to alma, who was super-nice and made one for dear dad too! actually, she told him that she'd only put 1 teaspoon of honey in it, even though i'd asked for 2, but it still tasted great to me!
-i read for awhile, then alma made me do approx 20mins worth of left hand exercises.
-alma made me walk over to the piano. of course, my left hand thunked out twinkle twinkle 5+ times first, then my right hand twiddled a few scales and carols.
-i needed to go pee, so alma made me walk to the loo, made me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, and made me walk back to the gobbling table. :P
-i asked if we could start watching the news at 5pm - 10's news is on 5:30 weekdays but 5pmn weekends, but PIG mum heard and snapped no. so alma and i played 4 or so games of uno, the same again of connect 4, and a game of rummikub.
-at 6pm, alma shifted me over to watch 7's news,
-sorry, PIG mum's booting me off to bed now. i hope to see you all at church toms! and fingers crossed for some yummy lunch!
cheers,
em. ^^

-still all the same as what i typed out on tuesday. >< actually, with one difference:
-usually, PIG mum enjoys forcing my left hand to rinse 4x with my right hand after i brush to 'make up' for it (my right hand taking the first initial pre-brush rinse), but, for some reason, she didn't last night. i dunno why, maybe it was because i had already rinsed half the cup as demanded by PIG mum?
and here are all the exercises PIG mum forced meto do last night, b4 i snored myself ito oblivion. :P
1. left ankle up and down 10x
2. left ankle up and out 10x.

8. left arm straight up in the air 10x.

10. left arm do thai boxing 10 times or so on my cool blue matress.
-PIG mum only forces me to do them (the bedtime exercises) '10 times', but usually, what i do never meets er standards and i end up doing that exercise more like 15+ times. well, i can only comply. ><
anyways, here comes the spotty points :P for the day!
-PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, then gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored byPIG mum><) me walk out to the gobbling table.
-i spat out my mouth splint and drank the required glass of water.
-breakfast this morning was a small but yummy bowl of nutri-grain.
-PIG mum kindly popped me my tablets for the day: a fish oil and a cranberry (she's always either lost the bilberry or the cranberry :P)
-time to go, PIG mum tootled us off to kuraby park.
-we met leanne there, and gave her our farewell gifts first. i hope she liked! then PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored byPIG mum><) me walk around the park with leanne as a constant, chatty companion. :)
-lunch time, PIG mum tootled us off to ishii (or oishii, i can never remember which, my bad. >< ) for lunch. letty was already there~
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored byPIG mum><) me walk into the restaurant.
-we ordered: they got all kinds of sushi - one was called the 'spider' roll! i asked letty and leanne if it was a redback, to which i got the reply "nah. just a huntsman." :P i got a yummy chicken katsudon, and PIG mum pinched a slice in return for one of the chicken sushi rolls wrapped in egg. yummy!
-after getting into a fight over who paid - PIG mum did, but letty and leanne paid her back too much o_O - PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored byPIG mum><) me walk down to that tofu flower place.
-letty, leanne and PIG mum all got tofu flower of some sort - PIG mum with yucky grass jelly, letty with assorted fruit, and leanne with mini pearls, and sweet potato dough - she let me try a bit, too! quite yummy~ as for me, i got a mint pudding milk tea, and i liked. yum yum!
-letty and leanne paid, and wouldn't let PIG mum pay them back. so thanks, girls! :)
-time to go, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum><)back out to our car. we said our thanks and byes to the girls, and PIG mum tootled us home, still listening to westlife.

-PIG mum came in to check if i'd wiped myself well enough for her standards, then geefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand - usually, if a carer's there, they'll help me dry y right hand ... i'm not really sure why PIG mum refuses... oh well, no biggie. PIG mum then gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to my chair.
-i tootled online briefly, waiting for alma's arrival.

-at 6pm, i asked PIG mum to please help me swivel my chair so i could watch 7's news, but rather, she gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to the sofa. we watched some woman win a buck (hey, every bit helps! :P) on deal or no deal, then 7's news was read out by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by patrick somebody? weather by john schluter and beach by liz cantor.
-alma kindly cut me up a pear, so of course i shared a slice with her and PIG mum.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to type but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk to the bathroom after the news. she also forced me to dak myself too.

thursday post
good evening, all! sorry i didn't post yesterday, PIG mum said she was too tired and booted me off. meaning that i'm going to be owed 3 hrs online for the next 2 days b4 i go back to the PALTRY >< 2 hrs that PIG mum restricts me to. somehow i doubt that i'll be allowed online for 3 hrs tonight; i came on at 7:40pm, so i guess i'll just have to take note of the time when PIG mum boots me off and keep a count of the time i'm owed. hey, i wonder, when i get better at my staggering around the house, if PIG mum will leave the modem on, give me lappytoppy and let me stay online till i'm ready to go to bed? with practice and my stick, i'm pretty sure i could toilet myself, flick off the light and hobble back to bed myself. it'd be weird though, me wearing my shoes on the bed. righteo, make way for the spotty :P points for the day!
-em got dug up super-early this morning; i had an eye appointment at 8:30am! so i'm feeling pretty jealous of tonie right now - the lucky bugger got to sleep in!
-breakfast was just a plain glass of milk in my favourite pig mum glass :P oink! then PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the car.
-PIG mum tootled us off to the PA, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 3. but the traffic was a shocker! we drove along the T2, but still went through a whopping 12-13 songs b4 we arrived!
-i was incredibly grateful when i heard PIG mum open the boot to get sparkless out. once plopped into it, i wheeled myself in, PIG mum lending some steering.
-we signed in, and so began our long wait. from past experience, it's usually a 3hr wait, and this time was no different.
-we saw one of the nurses, christy, who PIG mum met at some couple camp she and dad attended a few years previously. she was very nice and gave us a packet of bikkies each! i wheeled myself to the toilet once too, and wheeled myself over to the basin to wash and dry both hands as PIG mum had a tinkle herself. then i wheeled myself back to the waiting area. did you know, the TV in the waiting room has teletext! i read an entire take 5 magazine and parts of some other one too.
-finally my go, i wheeled myself in, and dr. vu (i think that's his name?) saw us. funny thing ... my right eye has gotten better, but my left eye's gotten worse? dunno, don't ask me ...
-he gave me an eye test, put dye in my eye, etc. i told him about my world domination plan, and he said good luck with it! muahahaha!!! :P
-anyways, time to go, he put me down for another 6-month follow-up, and i wheeled myself back out to the car, saying bye to christy on the way. i think her husband's in the health occupation as well?
-we saw habib! i called out a happy hello to him, and promised him that i was working hard~
-PIG mum tootled us home, still listening to westlife unbreakable volume 3.
-once home, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk back inside. i rang dear dad.
-lunch was a yummy sausage bun and half a yummy pancake with half a drizzle of maple syrup.
-ding dong! jo from coda arrived, followed by vincent the physio, amanda, karen and aunty vicky (not in that order, of course), who had brought her lunch with her.
-vincent the physio forced me to walk with my stick around 3 circles, then he forced me to walk to the bathroom, b4 forcing me to walk to the laundry, then forcing me to walk back to my dining room chair. then he showed karen, jo and amanda some of the arm exercises i did.
-go amanda! after all my hard work, she suggested icecream for everyone! so i got a tiny bowl of choc chip icecream, and a small spoonful of mango and green tea gelato. yummy! but poor karen, she didn't like. :p
-vincent he physio and karen rocked off. jo stayed behind for a chat, i got to voice my complaint to her. dunno if it'll help, though. CODA have already failed us this week. ><
-jo left, and mum gleefully made good evening, all! sorry i didn't post yesterday, PIG mum said she was too tired and booted me off. meaning that i'm going to be owed 3 hrs online for the next 2 days b4 i go back to the PALTRY >< 2 hrs that PIG mum restricts me to. somehow i doubt that i'll be allowed online for 3 hrs tonight; i came on at 7:40pm, so i guess i'll just have to take note of the time when PIG mum boots me off and keep a count of the time i'm owed. hey, i wonder, when i get better at my staggering around the house, if PIG mum will leave the modem on, give me lappytoppy and let me stay online till i'm ready to go to bed? with practice and my stick, i'm pretty sure i could toilet myself, flick off the light and hobble back to bed myself. it'd be weird though, me wearing my shoes on the bed. righteo, make way for the spotty :P points for the day!

-when jo rocked off, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk into the laundry for a shower. she forced me to dak myself too, then left us to it.
-amanda gave me a nice hot shower - hairwash today. she kindly left the hot water on for an extra minute or so so i could have a tinkle.
-amanda got me redressed, then gave me my stick and made me hobble out to the gobbling table. :P
-arvo tea was a yummy charsiu bun, plus a cup of tetley's australian breakfast with 2 teaspoons of honey. i introduced amanda to a piece of charsiu, and she liked!
-oh, my final plodding total - umm, well, apparently i plodded 3895.5 steps each day. huh, you go figure. :P
-PIG mum introduced amanda to that AWFUL singer, andy hui. :P so nasally. ugh. :P then she rocked off to her appointment with vincent the physio.
-i told amanda i needed to do a number 2, so she made me walk over into the loo. i did a stinky unspeakable - wiped myself too - then called for amanda, who made me walk over to wash my right hand. she kindly dried it for me, then made me walk over to the piano stool.
-my left hand practised twinkle twinkle 5 or so times, and my right hand twiddled a few scales and songs. i then also taught amanda how to play twinkle twinkle. i'll see her again on monday, let's see if she remembers how. :P
-news time, amanda made me walk over to the couch, and fed me 3 half crackers plus a glass of yummy chocolate nesquik. see, i only ask for it once a week!
-7's news at 6pm was read out by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by shane webcke and weather by john schluter. the most interesting surname i saw was 'lawlor'.
-after the news, i asked to go to the toilet again, so amanda made me walk to the toilet. i did my 2nd stinky unspeakable for the day. but this one was messy. >< but i wiped myself, then called for amanda, who made me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, and made me walk back to my chair.
-we toughed it out in connect 4! in the end, amanda prevailed, 10 games to 9. huh, i'll get her next time! :P
-actually, while we were watching the news, PIG mum rang to say that she and dad had gone for a date at sunnybank oriental. :P but they got back b4 7pm, so i signed amanda off and we said our thanks and byes.
-dinnertime! some egg, a piece of fish (i spat out 2 long bones) and 3 yummy dumplings. i washed that down with half a glass of yummy milk, coz our can of pear juice is finished, and PIG mum lacks the ability to open the new one. which reminds me, we need to buy a new can opener!
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer desk. she put the back brace she bought for me at bad backs on, and i popped online.
-ok, let's see if i can run through what happened yesterday quickly!
-PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, and gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the breakfast table.
-i spat out my mouth splint, and gobbled my breakfast of a bowl of nutri-grain.
-PIG mum kindly popped me a fish oil tablet and a cranberry.
-time to go, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the car, where she tootled us off to the southside sports and community club.
-PIG mum kindly plopped me into sparkless upon arrival, and i wheeled myself in.
-some people were already there; we had a chat and one of the guys kindly got me a glass of water.
-i told PIG mum that i needed the bathroom, so after asking directions, she steered me and i wheeled myself in.
-after a tinkle, then washing and drying both hands, i steered myself back to the group.
-after everyone had assembled, we ushered ourselves in and ordered.
-but we must've ordered last or sth - our meal came last! one of the guys had finished even b4 i had started! o_O
-our food finally came, a yummy battered fish and chips for me, and a honey/lemon chicken for PIG mum. i think i was pretty lucky to get a smidge of salt on my chips b4 PIG mum snatched the shaker away!
-i saw lesley and hubby get some fruit and icecream, and asked PIG mum if we could please get some too. to my utmost shock/surprise, she said yes!i slurped mine all up happily, PIG mum ate her fruit then let the icecream melt b4 drinking it. dunno why.
-milissa took some photos for us, so i wrote her down my email addy and asked her to please send the photos to us.
-time to go, we all received participation certificates and said we'd meet again in a month or two's time. i wheeled myself back out to the car, steering still done by PIG mum.
-PIG mum tootled us home, westlife still in the CD player.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk in on arrival.
-ok, PIG mum is kicking me off to bed now. time is now 9:33pm, meaning that i've been on for 2 hrs, so that means i'll still be owed 3 hrs today and toms. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
-em got dug up super-early this morning; i had an eye appointment at 8:30am! so i'm feeling pretty jealous of tonie right now - the lucky bugger got to sleep in!
-breakfast was just a plain glass of milk in my favourite pig mum glass :P oink! then PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the car.
-PIG mum tootled us off to the PA, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 3. but the traffic was a shocker! we drove along the T2, but still went through a whopping 12-13 songs b4 we arrived!
-i was incredibly grateful when i heard PIG mum open the boot to get sparkless out. once plopped into it, i wheeled myself in, PIG mum lending some steering.
-we signed in, and so began our long wait. from past experience, it's usually a 3hr wait, and this time was no different.
-we saw one of the nurses, christy, who PIG mum met at some couple camp she and dad attended a few years previously. she was very nice and gave us a packet of bikkies each! i wheeled myself to the toilet once too, and wheeled myself over to the basin to wash and dry both hands as PIG mum had a tinkle herself. then i wheeled myself back to the waiting area. did you know, the TV in the waiting room has teletext! i read an entire take 5 magazine and parts of some other one too.
-finally my go, i wheeled myself in, and dr. vu (i think that's his name?) saw us. funny thing ... my right eye has gotten better, but my left eye's gotten worse? dunno, don't ask me ...
-he gave me an eye test, put dye in my eye, etc. i told him about my world domination plan, and he said good luck with it! muahahaha!!! :P
-anyways, time to go, he put me down for another 6-month follow-up, and i wheeled myself back out to the car, saying bye to christy on the way. i think her husband's in the health occupation as well?
-we saw habib! i called out a happy hello to him, and promised him that i was working hard~
-PIG mum tootled us home, still listening to westlife unbreakable volume 3.
-once home, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk back inside. i rang dear dad.
-lunch was a yummy sausage bun and half a yummy pancake with half a drizzle of maple syrup.
-ding dong! jo from coda arrived, followed by vincent the physio, amanda, karen and aunty vicky (not in that order, of course), who had brought her lunch with her.
-vincent the physio forced me to walk with my stick around 3 circles, then he forced me to walk to the bathroom, b4 forcing me to walk to the laundry, then forcing me to walk back to my dining room chair. then he showed karen, jo and amanda some of the arm exercises i did.
-go amanda! after all my hard work, she suggested icecream for everyone! so i got a tiny bowl of choc chip icecream, and a small spoonful of mango and green tea gelato. yummy! but poor karen, she didn't like. :p
-vincent he physio and karen rocked off. jo stayed behind for a chat, i got to voice my complaint to her. dunno if it'll help, though. CODA have already failed us this week. ><
-jo left, and mum gleefully made good evening, all! sorry i didn't post yesterday, PIG mum said she was too tired and booted me off. meaning that i'm going to be owed 3 hrs online for the next 2 days b4 i go back to the PALTRY >< 2 hrs that PIG mum restricts me to. somehow i doubt that i'll be allowed online for 3 hrs tonight; i came on at 7:40pm, so i guess i'll just have to take note of the time when PIG mum boots me off and keep a count of the time i'm owed. hey, i wonder, when i get better at my staggering around the house, if PIG mum will leave the modem on, give me lappytoppy and let me stay online till i'm ready to go to bed? with practice and my stick, i'm pretty sure i could toilet myself, flick off the light and hobble back to bed myself. it'd be weird though, me wearing my shoes on the bed. righteo, make way for the spotty :P points for the day!
-em got dug up super-early this morning; i had an eye appointment at 8:30am! so i'm feeling pretty jealous of tonie right now - the lucky bugger got to sleep in!

-when jo rocked off, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk into the laundry for a shower. she forced me to dak myself too, then left us to it.
-amanda gave me a nice hot shower - hairwash today. she kindly left the hot water on for an extra minute or so so i could have a tinkle.
-amanda got me redressed, then gave me my stick and made me hobble out to the gobbling table. :P
-arvo tea was a yummy charsiu bun, plus a cup of tetley's australian breakfast with 2 teaspoons of honey. i introduced amanda to a piece of charsiu, and she liked!
-oh, my final plodding total - umm, well, apparently i plodded 3895.5 steps each day. huh, you go figure. :P
-PIG mum introduced amanda to that AWFUL singer, andy hui. :P so nasally. ugh. :P then she rocked off to her appointment with vincent the physio.
-i told amanda i needed to do a number 2, so she made me walk over into the loo. i did a stinky unspeakable - wiped myself too - then called for amanda, who made me walk over to wash my right hand. she kindly dried it for me, then made me walk over to the piano stool.
-my left hand practised twinkle twinkle 5 or so times, and my right hand twiddled a few scales and songs. i then also taught amanda how to play twinkle twinkle. i'll see her again on monday, let's see if she remembers how. :P
-news time, amanda made me walk over to the couch, and fed me 3 half crackers plus a glass of yummy chocolate nesquik. see, i only ask for it once a week!
-7's news at 6pm was read out by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by shane webcke and weather by john schluter. the most interesting surname i saw was 'lawlor'.
-after the news, i asked to go to the toilet again, so amanda made me walk to the toilet. i did my 2nd stinky unspeakable for the day. but this one was messy. >< but i wiped myself, then called for amanda, who made me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, and made me walk back to my chair.
-we toughed it out in connect 4! in the end, amanda prevailed, 10 games to 9. huh, i'll get her next time! :P
-actually, while we were watching the news, PIG mum rang to say that she and dad had gone for a date at sunnybank oriental. :P but they got back b4 7pm, so i signed amanda off and we said our thanks and byes.
-dinnertime! some egg, a piece of fish (i spat out 2 long bones) and 3 yummy dumplings. i washed that down with half a glass of yummy milk, coz our can of pear juice is finished, and PIG mum lacks the ability to open the new one. which reminds me, we need to buy a new can opener!
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer desk. she put the back brace she bought for me at bad backs on, and i popped online.
-ok, let's see if i can run through what happened yesterday quickly!
-PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, and gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the breakfast table.
-i spat out my mouth splint, and gobbled my breakfast of a bowl of nutri-grain.
-PIG mum kindly popped me a fish oil tablet and a cranberry.
-time to go, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the car, where she tootled us off to the southside sports and community club.
-PIG mum kindly plopped me into sparkless upon arrival, and i wheeled myself in.
-some people were already there; we had a chat and one of the guys kindly got me a glass of water.
-i told PIG mum that i needed the bathroom, so after asking directions, she steered me and i wheeled myself in.
-after a tinkle, then washing and drying both hands, i steered myself back to the group.
-after everyone had assembled, we ushered ourselves in and ordered.
-but we must've ordered last or sth - our meal came last! one of the guys had finished even b4 i had started! o_O
-our food finally came, a yummy battered fish and chips for me, and a honey/lemon chicken for PIG mum. i think i was pretty lucky to get a smidge of salt on my chips b4 PIG mum snatched the shaker away!

tuesday post
good evening! i can't report on how many steps i've plodde yet today coz i haven't been made to walk to dinner or anything yet, so let's just start with with the 2 things i'm going to type out once every tuesday, ok?
-i used to use the word FORCED whenever PIG mum made me walk, until she said i couldn't use capitals. so i just used Forced until she banned that word entirely. then i used the word contort until PIG mum said she was banning that word as well, and that all i could use was the word made. so i used MADE until she stipulated that they ALL had to be in lowercase. *sigh* what else can i do but comply? and, concerning last night:
1. PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk to the bathroom last night.
2. after being forced to stand to brush my teeth, PIG mum forced my left hand to rinse 4x with my right hand afterwards, coz my right hand took the initial pre-brush rinse.
3. after washing both hands, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk over to dry them both.
4. PIG mum then gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk to the toilet.
5. PIG mum forced me to dak myself for a long tinkle. actually, i did a stinky unspeakable, and wiped myself too.
6. when i stood back up, PIG mum forced me to pull my own pants back up.
7. PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to the sink to wash and dry my right hand.
8. PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to bed.
9. still no pull-up pants. argh. >< i DON'T have a UTI, get it?! at least, it was a dry night.
10. no surprise here - i asked PIG mum that when she woke up at night, and if more than 3 hrs has already passed, to please come down and let me go once to the toilet. of course, i've since learnt from experience that whenever i ask that, PIG mum will most CERTAINLY have the most PERFECT sleep that night, and will not wake up at ALL. leaving me to wake up around 6am, ready to burst, and call her down.
11. last thing. i only dare to sleep on my back now. why? i can't sleep on my left hand side, coz PIG mum says that my ankle needs a break. now i daren't sleep on my right side, ever since i almost fell to my death there one night. >< dunno why PIG mum refuses to put the showerchair there to block; i think she's had a whine about her poor back, or whatever. so my only remaining option is to sleep on my back. that's alright; my bed's fairly comfortable. ok, so here comes the spotty :P points for the day!
-em was jealous of tonie this morning - he got to sleep in, wheresa em got dug up! ><
-PIG mum got me kitted, then gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk out to the gobbling table. :P
-i spat out my mouth splint and drank the required glass of water.
-thanks to dearest dad for breakfast - a chunk of bread with a little marg and jam, plus a plain glass of milk.
-breakfast all gobbled up, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk out to the car. she commandeered the CD player, too. oh well, i like listening to ROTK.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk in on arrival, and PT with dom dom started at 9am. but i must remember to apologise to her next week, coz she left me sitting alone on the bed, not letting me lie down or anything, and i was scared SH*TLESS that i would fall off. >< PIG mum came back to yell at me that's the best way for me to have my physio sessions stopped, so i promise to try harder next week!
-time to go, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back out to the car.actually, i went to the loo, so of course she forced me to pull my own daks down, forced me to pull them back up, gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to our car.
-i changed the music back to westlife's coast to coast, and PIG mum tootled us home.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to the beginning of this post to read what i really want to write, but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk back inside once we got back home, and cooked lunch for us! yummy pancakes with a little bit of maple syrup! i washed down my portion with a glass of plain milk.
-PIG mum kicked me off to bed afterwards.
-it must've been the 1 and 3/4 cups of water that we put into the pancake mix! i woke up 2 or 3 times to use the pot!
-i told PIG mum that i was too tired to go to hydro; she forced me to go anyway. meaning my final plodding total for tuesday is now ... 5460.
-i came online once i got home, skipped dinner too, but PIG mum did kindly give me a glass of yummy, if unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down, cup of pear juice.
-CODA is a failure. they failed us today. the next time jo comes along for a visit, i gotta complain! meaning PIG mum kindly showered me today. of course, she forced my left hand to scrub various parts of my body 60-odd times.
-well, toms should be fun! library group breakup party! 10:30am at some sport's club, i think it is. i want battered fish and chips, yum yum!
cheers,
em. ^^+

monday post
evening! so, em got made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to write but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) to plod 3480 steps today. a good start to the week, me hopes! ok, about last night, first:
-just repeat everything that i typed out on tuesday. still the same. >< oh, not quite:
-PIG mum somehow took offence at how my left hand was holding the cup with my right hand, so she refilled my cup and forced my 2 hands to rinse together at least 9 times.
-anyways, toms is a tuesday, so i'll be typing it out once then, ok?
anyways, here comes the spotty points for today! :P
-em and tonie were happy pigs this morning. PIG mum got a call from UQ, that my appointment had been cancelled, so i snored happily away.
-PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, then gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to write but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk out to the gobbling table.
-the oscars were on! so i took a seat, then asked PIG mum politely if she could please fry me some of aunty katherine's cool dumplings for brunch. not really why she snapped no, but oh well. 6 boiled dumplings were still very tasty!just too bad, that i didn't get any soya sauce with them. oh well. next time, maybe!
-after brunch, PIG mum decided that i was tired and promptly made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to write but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to bed.
-denied a book to read, i sang and counted myself to sleep, calling PIG mum once to use the bed pot :P
-amanda came, plopped me into a showerchair, and wheeled me in for a shower - hairwash today.
-i went for a tinkle afterwards, then got redressed, b4 amanda made me walk to the gobbling table :P
-arvo tea: a cup of tetley's australian breakfast, sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a toasted chicken slice, mayo and cheese - yay, 2 slices! thanks amanda! means that this week has been fully satisfied - hope the good luck continues!
-we were listening to jacky cheung's DVD, when ding dong! uncle sam arrived to give some things to dad. but oops, we couldn't find the garage remote! >< i tried ringing PIG mum's mobile, but i guess she was busy at her workplace learning how to use this new computer hearing test program thing.
-amanda cut me up a pear at 5:30, and flicked onto 7's news at 6pm. it was read out tonight by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by shane webcke and weather by john schluter.
-PIG mum rang back to tell us that she was having a coffee with one of her workmates, daphne, i think it was.
-after the news, amanda made me walk to the loo, made me walk over to wash my right hand - but helped me dry it, thanks! - and made me walk back to my chair.
-i signed her off. she's having tacos or nachos tonight, but should be back toms, wed AND thur, if she can pick up her car from service.
-whoops, PIG mum's kicking me off to bed now. means that i'll be owed 2 1/2 hrs online toms. i've got physio at 8am toms, very early! wonder if PIG mum will take me for breakfast at maccas afterwards. fingers crossed!
cheers,
em. ^^

-arvo tea: a cup of tetley's australian breakfast, sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a toasted chicken slice, mayo and cheese - yay, 2 slices! thanks amanda! means that this week has been fully satisfied - hope the good luck continues!
-we were listening to jacky cheung's DVD, when ding dong! uncle sam arrived to give some things to dad. but oops, we couldn't find the garage remote! >< i tried ringing PIG mum's mobile, but i guess she was busy at her workplace learning how to use this new computer hearing test program thing.
-amanda cut me up a pear at 5:30, and flicked onto 7's news at 6pm. it was read out tonight by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by shane webcke and weather by john schluter.
-PIG mum rang back to tell us that she was having a coffee with one of her workmates, daphne, i think it was.
-after the news, amanda made me walk to the loo, made me walk over to wash my right hand - but helped me dry it, thanks! - and made me walk back to my chair.
-i signed her off. she's having tacos or nachos tonight, but should be back toms, wed AND thur, if she can pick up her car from service.
-whoops, PIG mum's kicking me off to bed now. means that i'll be owed 2 1/2 hrs online toms. i've got physio at 8am toms, very early! wonder if PIG mum will take me for breakfast at maccas afterwards. fingers crossed!
cheers,
em. ^^

ok, here come the spotty :P points for today!

-meaning em was very relieved to hear the garage door opening, heralding PIG mum's return!
-PIG mum got me kitted for the day, then gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk out to the gobbling table. :P

-arvo tea was a cup of tetley's australian breakfast sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a polo bun. i shared a chunk of it with susan, and she shared a bit of her rice cracker with me. she had a cup of green tea.
-we played a few games of uno and connect 4.
-ding dong! my heart plummeted when the doorbell rang. it really WAS vincent the physio. ><
-1st session: PT. he forced me walking around the house, threatening not to leave, and what not. i was exceedingly grateful when he left at 5:30.
-susan flicked the TV on to sports tonight, hosted by a rob kanning (i think.) she cut me up a soft pear, and i shared with her a slice, of course.
-at 6pm, i flicked over to 7's evening news, hosted by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by pat welsh, weather by talitha cummins, and beach by liz cantor.
-during the news, jo from coda rang to tell me that toms, dolly the baby elephant will be coming. yay, i miss her!
-after the news, susan gave me my stick and i hobbled to the toilet, hobbled over to wash and dry my right hand, and hobbled back to my chair.
-susan took off early, at 6:45pm, when PIG mum and dear dad returned home.
-i was ready to sit and read, waiting for dinner, but PIG mum told me to go do my bible study homework and gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been TOO heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to the computer.
-when dinner was called, i told PIG mum i wasn't very hungry and that it could be my skipped meal for the month, but did ask PIG mum politely if she could please pass me a piece of chicken, or sth. not really sure why she snapped no, but oh well. my tummy will last until breakfast toms.
-so i did my bible study homework, and had a bit of a yak to joshels on MSN. he's doing his bible study homework right now, too! and he also goes to BSF!
-dear grandma just rang! i love her the MOST :) and she prayed with me too! then i had a yak with aunty florence before i gave the phone to PIG mum. but, gotta remember, must keep baby mickey in my prayers tonight to percy the angel/saint, coz the poor little tyke is sick! ><

-arvo tea was a yummy sausage bun, plus a cup of hot tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey.
-we set to playing uno and connect 4. alma brought out rummikub also, but i'd forgotten how to play it and she didn't know, so we ditched that idea.

-PIG mum FORCED :( (first time) me to walk in on arrival, and we placed our order. i asked PIG mum if i could please have a pearl milk tea, dunno why she snapped no. oh well. another time, maybe.
-lunch arrived! yummy dumplings, shallot-flavoured pancake, egg, tofu, and cow's tummy! is that called tripe? i dunno ... but i liked it!

-arvo tea was a yummy sausage bun, plus a cup of hot tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey.

-the cup of tea went straigt down to my bladder. so alma made me walk to the toilet, and ordered me to dak myself. then she made me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, b4 she made me walk back to my chair.
-at 5:30, she cut me up a pear and flicked on 10's news. hehe, the weather lady's name is summer!
-alma flicked over for 7's news at 6pm, read out by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by patrick condren (i think?) weather by talitha cummins, and beach by liz cantor. alma also fed me a cracker and half a glass of milk.
-after the news, i wanted to pee once more, so alma made me walk to the toilet for a tinkle, made me walk over to wash my right hand - but she helped me dry it, thanks! - and made me walk back to my chair.

-PIG mum FORCED :( (first time) me to walk in on arrival, and we placed our order. i asked PIG mum if i could please have a pearl milk tea, dunno why she snapped no. oh well. another time, maybe.

-PIG mum tootled us home, still listening to jacky cheung.

-i got redressed, then alma handed me my stick and i hobbled back out to my chair.
-arvo tea was a yummy sausage bun, plus a cup of hot tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey.
-we set to playing uno and connect 4. alma brought out rummikub also, but i'd forgotten how to play it and she didn't know, so we ditched that idea.
-the cup of tea went straigt down to my bladder. so alma made me walk to the toilet, and ordered me to dak myself. then she made me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, b4 she made me walk back to my chair.
-at 5:30, she cut me up a pear and flicked on 10's news. hehe, the weather lady's name is summer!
-alma flicked over for 7's news at 6pm, read out by rod young and kay mcgrath, sport by patrick condren (i think?) weather by talitha cummins, and beach by liz cantor. alma also fed me a cracker and half a glass of milk.
-after the news, i wanted to pee once more, so alma made me walk to the toilet for a tinkle, made me walk over to wash my right hand - but she helped me dry it, thanks! - and made me walk back to my chair.
-i signed her off, and she asked to leave at 6:45pm, but i asked her not to coz dad wasn't home yetand PIG mum hadn't awoken from her snorings yet. :P

-dinnertime! rice tonight, with lotsa icky bitter vegetables, and some more of aunty rose's yummy soya sauce chicken. washed down with a yummy, if unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. and of course, PIG mum forced my left hand hang onto the bowl as i ate.

wednesday post
good evening! em can't report on how many steps she's plodded today yet, coz PIG mum really has taken out on her promise and removed sparky. >< oh, and i came online at 7:19pm, so i'll count how long i spend online tonight. i'm owed 2 days worth of 3 hours, too bad that PIG mum always kicks me off b4 i reach the 2 hour mark! >< ok, about last night first:
-still the same as what i typed out on tuesday. ><
-just a thing to mention: i can only sleep on my back every night. why? PIG mum says i'm not allowed to sleep on my left side coz my poor left ankle needs a break. now i don't dare sleep on my right hand side, coz i'm afraid that i'll fall off my bed and almost kill myself, like how i almost did once before. and it's obviously very hard to sleep on my tummy - there's not enough space to roll right around. so that's why i only dare sleep on my back.
-the other thing to mention! you know how i'm such a messy sleeper i've banged holes in the side wall? well, my dearest daddy went and brought me a lovely blue - my favourite colour! - matress to cushion against my banging! ok, so here comes the spotty points for today! :P
-em got dug up super early this morning, coz i had an appointment to se dr. olson at the greenslopes hospital (where aunty vicky works).
-PIG mum kindly fed me a glass of milk as surprise! aunty vicky turned up!
-so, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><)me walk out to aunty vicky's car, and she tootled us off to the greenslopes hospital.
-i was placed into sparkless upon arrival, and wheeled myself in, PIG mum lending some steering.
-and so began a long wait - i read a fairly new edition of a take 5 magazine, and a few pages of the australian newspaper. aunty vicky kindly poured us a cup of water, and i even tried this coffee lolly of hers - surprisingly, not bad!
-my turn, and i wheeled myself into dr. olson's office. PIG mum immediately launched into a tirade at how i've been scratching my tummy, and dr. olson inspected the scar that was there. and oops, she'd forgotten to bring the programmer. so she booked me in for a CT scan, on my bday, too, i think it was :P
-we said our thanks and byes, and i wheeled myself back out, steering again kindly provided by PIG mum.
-aunty vicky had gone down to the canteen to buy us some breakfast, so i wheeled myself to the cafeteria.
-breakfast was half a yummy cheese and ham sandwhich, and this banana, mango and sth juice. well, i remembered that there were 3 ingredients, just not what they were. :P
-time to go, i wheeled myself back to our car.
-first, PIG mum tootled us back home so we could drop aunty vicky off, saying our thanks and byes. actually, her boy tony, he went to see dr. mor recently, to have a mole removed from his thigh.
-well, house time! i'll try to come back with my favourite line, ok? time is now ... 8:27pmb
- good evening! it's now 9:43pm, and toms i'll be owed 3.5hrs coz PIG mum says she's kicking me off soon. my favourite line from house? a doctor: cut off the patient's head, and he should be fine afterwards." lol! :P anyways, where was i?
-PIG mum made(please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back into the house, as ding dong! aunty wendy arrived!
-she brought me a bag of pasta and cooked it for me for lunch! it's called 'rollini' and they're basically little tubes. so she cooked it with some pork for me and kindly made me a yummy chocolate nesquik too!
-PIG mum decided that she was kicking me off to bed. so first, she gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk to the loo. she frced me to dak myself, i sat down for a tinkle, then when i stood back up she forced me to pull my pants back up. then she gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then she gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to bed. i honestly dunno why she refused to gimmee a book to read, so i just sang and counted myself into a short nap.
-i woke up when alma/aman donged on our doorbell, and she plopped me into a showerchair for a shower- hairwash today. meaning i'm owed ONE more shower in the showerchair with the wheels, then i'll go back to alternating.
-i went for a tinkle afterwards, then got redressed and PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk to my armchair.
-arvo tea - a toasted cheese - score, 2 slices! thanks alma! i didn't even have to get the cheese myself! so this week has been well and truly satisfied~ - chicken slice and mayo sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles. oh, and a cup of tetley's australian breakfast, sweetened with a single spoonful of honey.
-i read for awhile, then alma grabbed me to play games with her. first she trounced me at connect 4 - her custom is to keep playing until there are no slots left - then i at least held my own in the uno.
-at 6pm, she flicked the news, fed me 2 cream bikkies and half a glass of milk.
-ding dong! aunty rose came - she'd made a yummy soya sauce chicken for us!
-ding dong again! this time, it was vincent the physio. >< so he dragged me walking around the house a couple of times. cheeky bugger - he asked if he could tear off a drumstick from the soya sauce chicken from aunty rose! of course i said no - not even for kat jie jie, sorry!
-PIG mum signed alma off. thankfully, vincent the physio left too. like i've said, if PIG mum or dear dad want to go to his place for a massage toms, they're more than welcome to.
-dearest dad came home, and called dinner: rice, with lotsa cos lettuce, and the meat of a chicken drumstick from aunty rose's soya sauce chook. PIG mum even allowed me a tiny piece of skin - thanks! dinner was washed down with a yummy, if unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. no surprise here, but of course PIG mum forced my left hand to hold on to the bowl as i ate.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to the computer, and i popped online for roughly an hour.
-time for house, and i called PIG mum, who sent dear dad to make me walk over to the seat.
-as house was on, i asked PIG mum to please help me plop onto the sofa.
-once house finished, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to the computer.
-well, toms sounds fun! i've got hydro in the morning, then a brunch date with B1, B2 and aunty ranny! i've already decided - i want an 'E' meal with a hot horlicks! and it'll be karen coming toms. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. almost forgot - today em plodded 2344 steps, or 700m, or burnt 84.3 calories :P
-still the same as what i typed out on tuesday. ><

-i went for a tinkle afterwards, then got redressed and PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk to my armchair.
-arvo tea - a toasted cheese - score, 2 slices! thanks alma! i didn't even have to get the cheese myself! so this week has been well and truly satisfied~ - chicken slice and mayo sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles. oh, and a cup of tetley's australian breakfast, sweetened with a single spoonful of honey.
-i read for awhile, then alma grabbed me to play games with her. first she trounced me at connect 4 - her custom is to keep playing until there are no slots left - then i at least held my own in the uno.
-at 6pm, she flicked the news, fed me 2 cream bikkies and half a glass of milk.
-ding dong! aunty rose came - she'd made a yummy soya sauce chicken for us!
-ding dong again! this time, it was vincent the physio. >< so he dragged me walking around the house a couple of times. cheeky bugger - he asked if he could tear off a drumstick from the soya sauce chicken from aunty rose! of course i said no - not even for kat jie jie, sorry!
-PIG mum signed alma off. thankfully, vincent the physio left too. like i've said, if PIG mum or dear dad want to go to his place for a massage toms, they're more than welcome to.
-dearest dad came home, and called dinner: rice, with lotsa cos lettuce, and the meat of a chicken drumstick from aunty rose's soya sauce chook. PIG mum even allowed me a tiny piece of skin - thanks! dinner was washed down with a yummy, if unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. no surprise here, but of course PIG mum forced my left hand to hold on to the bowl as i ate.
-PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to the computer, and i popped online for roughly an hour.
-time for house, and i called PIG mum, who sent dear dad to make me walk over to the seat.
-as house was on, i asked PIG mum to please help me plop onto the sofa.
-once house finished, PIG mum gleefully made (please refer to tuesday's post to read what i really want to say but have been too heavily censored by PIG mum ><) me walk back to the computer.
-well, toms sounds fun! i've got hydro in the morning, then a brunch date with B1, B2 and aunty ranny! i've already decided - i want an 'E' meal with a hot horlicks! and it'll be karen coming toms. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. almost forgot - today em plodded 2344 steps, or 700m, or burnt 84.3 calories :P
