wednesday post

woo hoo! 3 posts in one day! okies, my final plodding total for wednesday stands at 2130. so ... what happened this arvo?
-aunty catherine/ping yee :P came to pick us up in her tarrago (sp?). i got to sit in the death seat :P so if one day i can sit in the driver seat, i'll have sat in every single seat of that car! :) so aunty catherine tootled us off to vincent the physios.
-when we arrived, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY WANT TO TYPE, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk inside. vincent the physio took me from her, and Forced me to walk in. aunty catherine and PIG mum rocked off for a coffee, and physio started. >< just lotsa random hand exercises, and walking. he Forced me to walk back out at the end, and PIG mum and aunty catherine picked me back up. aunty catherine tootled us back home, we said our thanks and byes as evelyn arrived and Forced me to walk into the laundry. she forced me to dak myself - i complied, then i sat down in my showerchair.she forced me to take off my shoes - i complied, she forced me to take off my splint without any help - i complied, and she forced me to take my own shoes off - i complied.
-a nice hot shower - but we didn't set off the fire alarm! :P plus hairwash. i washed my own hair, washed all my body bar my back and right arm, and washed my own face. i've only got a spot or two on my chin and nose.
-i had a tinkle before evelyn flipped the water off; i then drip dried as evelyn set to cleaning/drying the floor.
-i put my own tee on (my cool BCAC UF camp one!), evelyn got the rest of me kitted, then she handed me my stick and Forced me to walk back to the dining hall.
-arvo tea - a cup of water-tea (sadly, only 1 teaspoonful of honey, and some asian brand i'd never heard of before)and a toasted cheese - too bad, only one slice, so it was ENTIRELY too thin >< - ham and mayo sandwhich cut into 4 triangles.
-i introduced evelyn to the concept of theraplaydough - she liked it so much we had a race to see which colour would hit the ground first :P- yellow won.
-at 5pm, evelyn Forced me to walk to the piano. my right hand played every major, minor, melodic minor and chromatic scale plus a few christmas carols and the national anthem for evelyn, who isn't an australian citizen yet, and my left hand thunked out twinkle twinkle a few times.
6pm, evelyn Forced me to walk back to my TV chair, and flicked 7's news on, read out by kay mcgrath and rod young, sport by shane webcke and weather by john schluter. the most interesting name i found was "o'hara".
-thanks to evelyn who fed me 2 half-crackers and a cup of cold milo to slurp while we were watching the news.
-at 6;30, parents came home with our new old car :P oh! i almost forgot! when i arrived home after physio, mum, dad and i took a few bye bye photos of our toyota ute! bear bear got a few snaps too - if i remember, i'll stick one up toms.
-anyways, evelyn Forced me to walk to the toilet, and ordered me to dak myself too - i complied. when she came to get me, she ordered me to pull my trousers back up - again, i complied. then she Forced me to walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then she Forced me to walk back to my computer chair.
-i went back online as evelyn was lucky and got to rock off 15 mins early. she's going to get chinese takeaway for dinner. i told her about the purple rice we once got in singapore, when we went in 2005 :p
-well, house will be on in roughly half an hour; i must remember to ask PIG mum for a bowl (well, i never get a whole bowl, but it's IN a bowl, see) of icecream!
-aunty peggy just popped in to borrow sth from dad - she gave me this really cute little ragdoll that i think she said chris's fiancee(sp?) made. it's got a cute little red hat, so of course, i just called him 'chris' :P
-well, off to watch naruto before i go watch house! actually, mum says marianna wants to talk to me, so i guess that episoe of naruto must be left till toms. just physio at UQ toms. and karen's coming in the arvo. bye bye, everyone! i'll try to remember my favourite quote from house to type up toms. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
