good evening! including hydro, em was hard at work today plodding 3990 steps. sorry, don't mind me if i can't be bothered plodding the last ten steps needed to make my total for monday 4000. :P eep, it's almost 9pm, and PIG mum will come over to boot me off to bed very soon, so let's hurry up and get started on the spotty points :P for today!
-em and bear bear were mega-happy pigs this morning who slept till 9am this morning. :p the new thing was that PIG mum had set an alarm clock to jar us both out of slumber!
-so PIG mum dug em up, got her kitted, fed her a mug of hot milo, then made made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) her walk out to the 4WD.
-off she tootled us off to UQ for physio.
-when we arrived, i wanted to go to the bathroom, so PIG mum made made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk up to the toilet, forced me to dak myself, forced me to pull my daks up after a tinkle, made made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk over to wash my right hand, made (PLEASE!

-a student came for me, kindly lent me a walkbelt, then Forced me to walk in.
-just standing, walking, and right arm reachy exercises today. i told them my stupid left ankle was sore; steph whipped it off to declare that PIG mum had stuck on the straps too tightly this morning.
-the students Forced me to walk back down, i retured the sexy belt :p to them, and PIG mum tootled us home, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 1. actually, she had originally offered me a choice: willingly walk into garbo and have my glasses fixed, and she'd treat me to lunch at food court; but if i wanted sparkless, lunch would have to be had at home. after already having one ankle ouchy episode today, and not really wanting a second, i took the lunch at home option.
-so PIG mum tootled us back home. dear dad was home too! so PIG mum mademade (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk all the way in.
-lunch was 5 yummy boiled dumplings, made for us by some aunty at the sister's fellowship. sadly, PIG mum refused me even a DROP of soya sauce to go with them, but they were yummy, regardless :)
-i kissed goodbye to dear dad, and PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back out to the 4WD, where she tootled us off to garbo.
-she parked, got out sparkless, then i wheeled myself in, PIG mum kindly providing some steering.
-first, i wheeled myself to see the new hanaichi place - i remember PIG mum telling me that hanaichi had opened a store upstairs, too, so i wanted to see it.
-then i wheeled myself to the glasses store, where a kind lady fixed my loose glasses. PIG mum ordered me to tell the lady why my glasses were loose in the first place, so i did. i promise, bear bear doesn't want to try my glasses again anymore! :P
- after buying 2 cos lettuce for dinner and a bun from baker's delight for arvo tea, i wheeled myself back to the car, and PIG mum tootled us home.
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of thursday's post to read what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back inside, and i tootled online for a couple of mins until amanda got here.
-arvo tea was a cup of tea sweetened with a single spoonful of honey, and a chunk ofthat ham and pineapple pizza slice bread that PIG mum had kindly bought.
-amanda Forced me to walk to the bathroom to get changed for hydro. i ended up doing a stinky unspeakable, so much thanks to amanda who helped me wipe. then she got me changed for hydro, Forced me to walk over to wash my right hand - but kindly dried it for me - then Forced me to walk to barry.

-i had a bit of a chat to sharon, the malaysian(? i think) girl who'd finally got herself an AFO from goodwill orthopaedics, too.
-i got dried, redressed, went for a tinkle. then amanda Forced me to walk back out to barry.
-she tootled us home, listening to B105, then NOVA, then some sea FM. 101.9, i think it may have been?
-amanda Forcedme to walk back inside, where she fed me another small chunk of that ham and pineapple pizza slice - it cost $4 - and half a glass of cold milk.
-amanda and PIG mum ganged upon me, Forcing me to walk up the stairs then back down. i was then set to practising the piano. my right hand played every major, minor, melodic minor and chromatic scale plus a few christmas carols, then supported my left hand to thunk out twinkle twinkjle 5 - 10x. which reminds me, i gotta email christy jie soon.
-at 6:45, amanda Forced me to walk to the toilet, Forced me to walk over to wash my right hand - but kindly helped me dry it - then Forced me to walk back to the gobbling :P table.

-dinner tonight: rice, lotsa cos lettuce, some beef, some snapper, and 2 slices of tofu from aunty tiffany. washed down with just a mug of cold milk. i actually drink everything just by holding the entire cup now, rather than risk PIG mum's wrath for sticking the 'incorrect' fingers in.

P.P.S. and sorry, no time to check my post tonight, coz PIG mum's whinging and whining about how tired she is. oh well, i hope most of it's okay!
P.P.P.S. PIG mum bought me a yummy microwaveable meal today, in return that i'm not allowed to say my usual litany of steps she forces me to walk for three days. so i'll remember. i can last till friday, no probs. guess it'll just have to be a CONSTANT LITANY in my head. goodnite!
