wednesday post

good afternoon! no plodding total from em yet, coz it's not even 3pm in the arvo! but i'll try to come back online after house and record it down. firstly, regarding last night:
-repeat everything that i typed out on sunday. all the same. ><
-only difference, PIG mum somehow took offence at the way my left hand was holding the cup to rinse, so she gleefully made me do it again. and again. and again. >< anyways, what happened today?
-oh, poo poo. >< em woke up last night and was wet. terrible way to start the new month, yeah? ><"
-PIG mum dug em up this morning, gave her a glass of water to drink. i got kitted, then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of sunday's post to see what i REALLY want to write, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-ding dong! aunty wendy arrived, back from korea. and no, she didn't eat a nice fat puppy for me :P but she was very kind and bought me a tee as a souvenir!
-breakfast was 2 1/2 (that's all that was left) of weetbix with some yummy honey.
-PIG MUM ROCKED OFF TO LOGAN NORTH LIBRARY AND TO BIG W FOR SOME GROCERY SHOPPING. I SETTLED DOWN TO WATCH NINE'S MORNING NEWS HOUR. sorry, shrieking. ><
-aunty wendy took me once to the loo before lunch: 2 yummy fish fillets all mashed up with a spoonful or two of mayo, and lotsa diced vegies. thanks to aunty wendy who made me a honey lemon water to wash it down with.
-i read for awhile, aunty wendy gave my dumb/sick/crazy :P left hand/arm a massage. my right hand got a quick one too!
-PIG mum returned, i said my byes and thanks to aunty wendy. think she'll be back in a fortnight? oh yeah, also thanks to her and PIG mum who popped me a lemon strepsil each for my sore throat.
-well, doorbell's just rang, that'll be evelyn. lemme just clear my hoarse throat to yell upstairs for PIG mum, who's on the phone. phew, she heard me.
-hey, evelyn's not here ... it's some lady from real communities ...
-everyone, meet leigh! last name walden; she's pretty cool - got 8 kids and 20 grandkids, 22 by the end of the year! wow! she wins, hands down.
-anyways, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of sunday's post to see what i REALLY want to write, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer, and after ringing dear dad, i tootled online.
-well, PIG mum's just showing leigh around right now. her partner's maori, actually. some incredibly, long, unpronounceable surname :P
-anyways, i'll try to plop back online after house tonight to log my final plodding total and write down my favourite quote, if i remember it. righteo, cya then!
cheers,
em. ^^

tuesday post

good evening! em was only hard at work today plodding 817 steps today. not a lot, coz i didn't have phyaio at the PA today. righteo, what happened today?
-yay, go em, who last night managed to swing herself over to use the pot :P without falling to her death :P
-them em and bear bear were INCREDIBLE pigs, who slept all the way until 3pm! PIG mum did come in once, around midday, to force me to drink a glass of water, but then my dearest bear bear cuddled me and we snored our heads off together. :P
-ding dong! karol came at 3pm. she dug me up, got me kitted, then Forced me to walk to the laundry for my shower - hairwash today.
-i got dried, rekitted. karol clipped my pedometer back onto me and Forced me to walk back out to the dining room.
-brunch tea (breakfast +lunch + afternoon tea = brunch tea, see? :P) was a bowl of the parent's yummy milo porridge and 2 slices of toast, which i maragarined :P myself. difference was, karol didn't force my poor left hand to hang onto the plate as i spread, like how PIG mum does.
-karol gave my dumb/sick/crazy :P left arm a massage, then forced me on 15mins worth of hand exercises; just squeezing the squeezy balls today.
-karol Forced me to walk over to the piano. so my right hand supported my left hand in thunking out twinkle twinkle 3x, then played all the scales, lotsa christmas carols, and random song requests from karol.
-karol Forced me to walk back to the dining hall, where she very kindly fed me 2 half crackers. we did a crossword together.
-at 6:45, karol Forced me to walk to the toilet and Forced me to walk back to the dining hall. i didn't wash my right hand coz it was in the mitt.
-i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. she said she'll keep an eye out for me and try to buy me a kit kat next time she comes. apparently, they come in twix flavours now! yum! i expect to see her on friday, actually :P doubt amanda will be out of her funk yet.
-i read my novel for awhile as PIG mum kindly heated up my dinner in the microwave for me.
-dinner: rice, lotsa wombok and some beef. PIG mum of course forced my poor left hand to hang onto the bowl as i ate. i just ate at my usual speed though, pretended that it's just not there. it doesn't hurt, so if PIG mum derives so much pleasure from being able to force my poor left hand to hang onto the bowl, well, who am i to stop her?
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of sunday's post to see what i REALLY want to write, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to the computer desk. i tootled online.
-phew, i finished! i'll just check, then hopefully will have enough time to read a news article or two. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i found and corrected 2 errors in my post tonight.

monda

good evening, all! today em was hard at work plodding 1823 steps. righteo, what happened today?
-yay! em managed to swing herself over to use the pot :P once without falling to her death :P but when she was back in bed, she couldn't find her bear bear! >< so much thanks to denny, who reassured me, "silly bear bear's prolly just squirmed himself right off the bed. just cuddle up to tonie and myself for tonight, i'm sure PIG mum will pick him back up for you come toms morning. here, i'll even poke itchy awake for you." and after i'd given his tummy a good scratch, itchy very obligingly cuddled up to me and we all snored our heads off together. :P
-PIG mum dug me up. i used the pot :p once more. PIG mum got me kitted, then fed me a mug of water and a mug and a half of yummy milo porridge as breakfast. then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk out to the 4WD.
-off she tootled us off to UQ, listening to westlife (their very first album is self-titled, see).
-we parked, and PIG mum kindly got out sparkless for me. so i wheeled myself in, PIG mum kindly providing some steering.
-first, PIG mum signed our car in. then she took me once to the loo, before we returned to the waiting room. PIG mum kindly poured me a glass of absolutely freezing! water, then i browsed a who magazine until edlar (he's canto, too, actually!) called us in. so i wheeled myself into his office.
-first, i signed my life away. :P then, i told him the story of what had befallen me, PIG mum providing everywhere she could things to cut me down. the tears came, too. edlar was a pretty nice guy, i think he booked me in to go for a whole day's worth of tests on friday. this session cost 40 bucks, BTW. and he told me that i couldn't possibly study for these tests, phew. :P
-before we left, PIG mum took me once more to the loo, then she tootled us home, still listening to westlife, after ringing dear dad.
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back into the house. after being forced to dak myself, she kindly fetched me a glass of water, and i did a stinky unspeakable, wiping myself too. PIG mum came back from ringing CODA as to who'd be coming that afternoon, forced me to pull my own daks back up, made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to the gobbling table.
-lunch was another mug of the yummy milo porridge, with two slices of toast that i maragarined :P myself. a bit annoying to have PIG mum to force my poor left hand to hang onto the plate as i spread the maragarine, but oh well. no biggie.
-PIG mum ordered bed after lunch, so she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to bed. i asked to read my devotions book that UF had bought for me, so thanks to PIG mum who let me read a few days worth, before snatching it away and ordering sleep. actually, i fell asleep rather quickly! i was only counting up to my 100's or 200's. i did wake up once to yell that the phone was ringing, though.
-PIG mum dug me up, i used the pot once more, then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-ding dong! robert soon came! lol, after we said hi and all that, he took a seat, then the first line he said to me? "the people at the call centre love you." lol! sorry robert, that i kinda doubt, but thanks, all the same. :P
-so PIG mum gave him a glass of water in my favourite pig mum glass :P he gave PIG mum back the money from the taxi ride, and we had a yak. hey, how cool is this - we get PAID for going to TRAINING!
-after he left, ding dong! cherame arrived! poor amanda's in hospital right now; no idea if she's chucking a sicky or anything, but i hope she gets better soon!
-so cherame fitted my walkbelt onto me, then Forced me to walk into the laundry for my shower - no hairwash today. ah, but it was good to have a carer who'll do the 'i start undressing me from the top; if you'll start undressing me from the bottom' thing. i also feel much safer with her then say, evelyn, who deliberately says each time, "okay, i'm not holding onto you know." when we walk. argh, i mean, how exactly is that statement meant to help me build confidence!? ><
-anyways, i got dried, bandaged, creamed and rekitted, before cherame handed me my stick and Forced me to walk back out to the gobbling :P table.
-arvo tea: a cup of tea, sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a toasted cheese - yay, thanks cherame for 2 slices! - and ham sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles. i don't think we have any mayo left?
-i gave my email to cherame - and congrats to her! she's pregnant!! the baby's due end december, and her 13 year old daughter nikila, who lives in new zealand with her father right now, wants to have a baby sister. nikila's last name is emery, BTW. lol, cherame's a mossely, but wouldn't it be funny if she was an emery too? 'cherame emery' just sounds funny, lol. :P
-i read my novel for awhile; cherame kindly gave my left hand/arm a massage, and fed me a pear and the rest of my yummy chicken honey soy chips.
-at 6:45, cherame Forced me to walk to the toilet, Forced me to walk over to wash my right hand - but kindly helped me dry it, thanks -and Forced me to walk back to the gobbling :P table.
-i signed her off, said my byes and thanks. hmm ... wonder if she'll come again toms?
-PIG mum came back to force poor em on a few mins of left ankle stretching. then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk over to the computer, also forcing me to walk around and around trying to move my chair up behind me so i could sit into it. ai, whatever.
-PIG mum came back and made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the table for dinner: rice tonight, with lotsa lettuce, some pork, and a yummy if little chunk of egg. dinner was washed down with a sour mug of fruit and vegie juice - i found out tonight that it contains, like, 83% of tomato! no wonder i don't like it - it's sour. >< yucky! of course, PIG mum also forced my poor left hand to hang onto the bowl as i ate. oh well, no biggie. it doesn't hurt, fortunately, so i just eat at my normal speed and pretend that my left hand isn't even there.
-i asked to go to the loo once more before i popped back online, so that's where PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk. no guesses as to who forced who to do the dakking and un-dakking, either. then PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, before she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to the computer chair, where i popped back online for a little while.
-well, so ends me for tonight. i don't have physio toms, coz dom dom rang PIG mum to let her know that she'd be having some scan done - she's pregnant, too! - so no physio for me toms. i've already asked PIG mum if we can please try to find aunty joianne for lunch out somewhere, but she just snapped at me to ask her again toms. i hope she's recovered from her swine flu by then! :P okay, okay, it's just a common cold, no need to hit the panic button,okay? sheesh :Panyways, goodnite all! cya toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i wonder if PIG mum can ring CODA for me and find out who'll be coming toms ... i mean, i think poor amanda's still in hospital ... lol, i hope she doesn't have the swine flu too! :P
P.P.S. i found and corrected 2 errors in my post tonight.

sunday post

evening! the spam count for the weekend is 59, and em only worked hard and plodded 854 steps today. not a lot, i know, but i can explain ...

-em was very happy to ring grandma last night, who prayed with her. :) she prays in canto, but lapses fewquently into hokkien. baby mickey was being a brat; see, aunty nga had bought a foot spa to rest her tired feet after a hard day's work, and baby mickey kept trying to climb into it! lol :p
-oh, poo poo. em woke up this morning and was wet. >< that's twice this month, a double failure. ><
-finally, em managed to swing herself over to use the pot without falling to her death! :P
-but, em and PIG mum didn't get to go to church today; see, dad quarantined PIG mum with the swine flu. :p just joking! but i had a sore throat too, >< so i stayed at home and snored my head off with bear bear all the way until 3pm, when evelyn arrived.
-well, no time to write anymore, coz PIG mum's already forcing poor em to go to bed. >< oh well. i guess the only thing worth mentioning was that evelyn bought over some sadza for dinner! it looks and tastes like mashed potato, and she cooked it with some spicy sausage and bok choy. whoops, apologies, PIG mum informs me that she added the bok choy. after forcing emm on 45 mins of hand exercises - which i'm so claiming back on my internet time toms!
righteo. PIG mum is forcing poor em off to bed already. guess that means, toms i'll claim my puny two hours plus the 45mins of hand exercises that evelyn forced me to do on a sunday, plus the 55mins i'm owed coz PIG mum's forcing me to bed now. apologies for any typing errors, and hope everyone has a great week!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. oh! hope toms goes well - i'moff to UQ so they can assess (sp?) whether or not i'm too psychotic to go back to uni :p then i've got physio, then in the arvo i've got hydro. >< oh well, i'm allowed to ask ann for a break from hydro till sept 1st, coz i seriously HATE being frozen to death after i get out of the water. bye!

saturday post

good afternoon! no plodding total from em yet, she'll be forced to walk a few hundred more steps before the day's out. anyways, i wasn't very clear on what i was typing out yesterday, so let's try again:
-whenever i had to walk, i'd say PIG mum FORCED :( me to. when she banned me from using all capitals, i just typed Forced until she decided that the entire word was somehow offensive to her, and banned it entirely. so i switched to the word 'contort', only it wasn't long until she forbade that word, demanding that henceforth, i was only allowed to use the word made. so i complied, and used MADE until she again stepped in and ordered that it had to be ALL in capitals. again, i complied, only i said PIG mum 'gleefully made' me walk. then, charlsy left me a comment on this blog, ordering that i was only to use the word made without any words before it or anything. dunno why i listen to him really, after all, it's MY blog, but i guess i do coz i have heaps and heaps of respect for him as a friend. and, regarding the night:
1. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk from the computer table to the kitchen benchtop to drink my nightly half cuppa of milk.
2. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk back to the bathroom for my nightly routine.
3. i was forced to stand to brush my teeth. also, PIG mum forced me to place the toothbrush in my left hand before my right hand squeezed out the toothpaste. and, PIG mum also forced my left hand to take the three after-brush rinses with my right hand.
4. after flossing, mouthwashing and washing both hands, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)
-sorry, showertime for me now! time is now ... 3:39pm. well, it's actually 3:40pm now, only PIG mum and carer are having a yak. :P
-good evening! still no plodding total from me yet, since i haven't even had dinner! :P but, to continue where i was ...
... me walk over to dry them both.
5. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the toilet.
6. PIG mum forced me to dak myself for a tinkle.
7. after i stood back up, PIG mum forced me to un-dak myself.
8. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry both my hands.
9. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to bed, where i collapsed with a sigh of relief.
10. no pull-up pants. argh. >< but i managed to swing myself over to use the pot :P quite a few times without falling to my death! :P
-and if i don't mention any of this again till thurtsday, it just means that it was all the same. >< no difference. righteo, let's start with the spotty :P points for today!
-PIG mum came in and let me use the pot once. i told her i had a sore throat. >< so much thanks to her who popped me a strepsil (sp?). then i cuddled my darling bear bear and we sang/counted ourselves back into a snooze.
-dear dad came in and told me "ten more mins." he hit me with the eye goo :P then left me to evelyn.
-evelyn dug me up approx. 10 mins later then forced me to put on as much as i could manage. then she got the rest of me kitted, before she Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was a mug of warm milo and a yummy egg and ham bun. evelyn made herself a cup of coffee.
-after breakfast, evelyn Forced me to walk to the bathroom to brush my teeth. i asked her why she couldn't just hand a plastic container over to me; i guess she just wanted to force me to walk more. oh well, no biggie.
-anyways, PIG mum is summoning me for dinner, so i'll bbl, okies? time is now ... 7:53pm
-*burp* i'm back! time is now ... 8:12pm, and my final plodding total for saturday now stands at 1989. so, where was i?
-after i brushed my teeth, i asked evelyn to pass me a capful of the mouthwash, so i had a gargle. then she Forced me to walk to the loo, also forcing me to dak myself. i asked her to please pass me a cup of water then did a stinky unspeakable, wiping myself too. evelyn came to force me to pull my own daks up, before she Forced me to walk over and wash and dry my right hand, before she Forced me to walk back to my TV chair.
-we sat down to watch the news ... except there was no news? just some version of the 7:30 report on ABC at midday.
-when PIG mum returned, lunch was two minute noodles with lotsa kailan and a small but yummy chunk of crumbed fish, washed down with a yummy glass of plain milk. of course, PIG mum forced my poor left hand to hang onto the bowl as i ate. no biggie, like i said, it doesn't hurt. so i'll just eat at my regular pace, and pretend that my left hand isn't even there.
-my heart fell when vincent the physio arrived. >< first session:PT. he forced me to do random right and left reachy exercises, head and neck exercises, and 10 laps of walking before he finally got lost.
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk over to the computer table, as she explained my usual routine to my new carer for today.
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk into the laundry, then left the carer and i to it.
-yay! a carer that agrees to the 'i start undressing you from the bottom, you start undresing yourself from the bottom and we'll meet somwhere in the middle' principle! :)'
-a nice hot shower, no hairwash today.
- i got dried, bandaged, creamed and rekitted, before shalayne (lol, i just had to ask PIG mum to please spell that out for me; i kept forgetting it! :P) Forced me to walk back out to the gobbling :P table.
-arvo tea: a cup of tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a toasted cheese - thanks for 2 slices, shalayne! - and ham sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles.
-i read my novel for the book club, shalayne gave my left hand/arm a massage, and we had a chat. she's divorced from her hubby, has 3 sons and 1 daughter (the youngest) and one son swears like a trooper. :P
-shalayne Forced me to walk over to practise piano. my right hand played every single scale, some christmas carols, and other random songs, then supported my left hand in thunking out twinkle twinkle 2 or 3 times.
-shalayne Forced me to walk back to the table, and she kindly fed me a pear, a golden kiwi, and a small bowl of plain potato chips. i wonder where my honey soy chicken ones have vanished to?
-at 6:45, shalayne Forced me to walk to the loo. i asked her to please pass me a glass of water, then i did a messy stinky unspeakable. >< so much thanks to PIG mum who helped me to wipe. then she forced me to pull my trousers back up, before she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer. i turned it on myself, then tootled online for a few mins until dear dad called dinner. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over for dinner, and made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the beginning of this post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back once i'd finished eating. she keeps noting the time of when my pissy two-hour time limit is up. ><

-well, PIG mum and karol are having a yak right now, so i'll thunk out a few more sentences. :p
-yeah. i forgot to type out everything yesterday, coz PIG mum was all for forcing me to bed. so:
-whenever i had to walk, i used to type that PIG mum FORCED :( me to. when she banned me from using all capitals, i used Forced until she decided that the entire word was somehow offensive to her and banned it entirely. so i switched to the word contort, only it wasn't long before PIG mum decided
-oops, karol’s here, so showertime for me now. Time is now … 3:00pm.
-good evening! time is now 8:28pm, and the spam count for the week is 195. not sure if i have a plodding total, will to try and get out of dinner, may not succeed ... anyways, where was i?
-PIG mum barged in, forced me to sleep on my right hand side and gave me ten more mins.
-ooh, thanks PIG mum! i got excused from dinner, so my final plodding total for friday now stands at 3706.
-i think i had a mug of milo and a museli bar for breakfast? then PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk out to the car, where off she tootled us off to green tea garden.
-aunty alice met us at the door, and PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk in.
-i said a happy hello to uncle phillip and christy jie, and after saying sorry for not being able to give him a bday card, we ordered.
-i was kinda stuck between dumplings and a chicken chop :P
, the dumplings won in the end. my drink was a jasmine milk tea with pudding. PIG mum got some disgusting herbal tea. :p
-much thanks to uncle phillip and aunty alice who shouted us! christy jie had to leave a bit early.
-time for us to leave too, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of yesterday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to the car, where she tootled us home.
-i tootled online briefly until ding dong! sure enough, karol came!
-she stuck my walkbelt on me, and Forced me to walk into the laundry for my shower.
-hairwash today, but umm ... the water pressure died? so much thanks to karol who heated up the kettle and brought a nice hot bucket of water in to wash me. also thanks to PIG mum who brought in another bucket, but hers was barely lukewarm. oh well.
-dr. walsh :P bandaged and creamed me up. then i got rekitted, before she handed me my stick and Forced me to walk out to the dining room.
-arvo tea was a yummy sausage bun plus a cup of honey lemon water - em's throat isn't sore, but it's not very happy. :(
-karol forced me on 15mins of hand exercises, and we also did a crossword together.
-karol Forced me to walk over to practise piano. my right hand supported my left hand in thunking out twinkle twinkle 2 or 3 times, then played every single scale, a heap of christmas carols, and other songs that karol requested, e.g. the lion king.
-at 6:45, karol Forced me to walk to the toilet, Forced me to walk over to wash my right hand - but kindly helped me dry it, thanks - and Forced me to walk back to the dining table.
-i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. dunno when she'll be back again, but i hope it's soon!
-PIG mum galloped :P back to force poor em on 40+mins of arm exercises, culminating in a forced march up to my room and back down. actually, i needed to use the bathroom, so of course she also forced me to dak and un-dak myself before forcing me back down the stairs. but ouch! PIG mum DROPPED poor em not once, not twice, not three times, but FOUR times! >< don't worry, it was only onto the carpet, so nothing to show for it.
-so, i'm online now. not really sure how long PIG mum will allow me online, but oh well. think evelyn's coming toms morning - and toms afternoon, too! hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. whoops, forgot to continue typing what i usually type on thursdays, but wasn't given enough time to. :(
- that this word was somehow offensiveto her also, and decided that henceforth, i was only to use the word made. so i used MADE until PIG mum put her foot down again and it had to be ALL in lowercase. *sigh* what else can i do but comply? only i typed that PIG mum 'gleefully' made me walk, until charlsy left me a comment saying that i could only use made without any words beffore or after it. dunno really why i listen to him, after all, it's MY blog, but i guess it's coz i have heaps and heaps of respect for him as a friend. and, about last night:
1. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to just a bit above this post to see what I REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to get my nightly half acuppa of milk.
2. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to just a bit above this post to see what I REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)
-ai. >< PIG mum's already booting poor em off to bed before she finishes! so i guess i'll haveta leave it till toms, if there's still time. argh. >< well, life sucks, em. get used to it.
cheers,
em. ^^

thursday post

hello!*sigh* again, i believe pigs will fly rather than be allowed to stay online for my rather pissy 2 hrs, but oh well. anyways:
-today, em was hard at work plodding 1749 steps. what else happened today?
-physio at UQ. lotsa walking and right arm reachy stuff.
-i reminded PIG mum to please stop at the newsagency on the way home to pick up a newspaper, so i could bask in reading how my mighty maroons took out a 4th straight origin series!
-i made myself a yummy kebab for lunch. thanks to PIG mum who mixed me a yummy chocolate nesquik.
-jo from coda and this man from el salvador came to visit!
-karen came. shower for me - no hairwash today.
-the perfect arvo tea! a toasted cheese - 2 slices, you're awesome, karen - ham and mayo sandwhich, plus a cup of tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar.
-i read awhile, karen gave me a hand massage.
-karen took me once more to the loo before we left. i rang dear dad.
-this indian taxi driver drove us to garbo. karen didn't like him; he drove over the speedbumps too fast, see.
-i drove myself in. dinner: karen got me a chocolate milkshake from wendys. we both ate a chicken nanban - 'twas yummy! funny, i'd asked for a chicken katsudon, and karen said that's what she'd ordered, but chicken katsudon had egg in it, and this had no egg. oh well. karen told me to do the ordering next time. she herself had an iced coffee.
-oh, we went to the library first. i got a new library card - wow, i was still in the files! then i borrowed the book eragon. i'd originally cut down to 4 books, 2 feist, eragon, and a david feintuch book, but karen ordered only one, so eragon won. we took it to the self-serve check out.
-karen and i (lol, i feel like being grammatically correct, alright? :P)went wandering around to find my parents an anniversary present. we found sth that i thought was pretty funny, so next week i'll ask PIG mum for a bit more cash so i can buy it.
-another indian driver drove us home. we said our thanks and byes to karen; she'll be back next thursday.
-too bad. if i'd thought that maybe i could stay in sparky until i had my nightly half a cuppa of milk, i must've been delusional. after karen left, the parents immediately dug me out of sparky and made (no time to write about it, i'll leave it til toms, if i have the time then) me walk back inside. i plopped online for a few mins.
-well, that's me for tonight. toms should be good! no hydro, coz i've still got my monthlies - but toms will be the last day, but christy jie, uncle phillip, PIG mum and i are all going to green tea garden for lunch! uncle phillip's bday was in may, see. so, i'll try to print him out a bday card before PIG mum forces me to bed, and again, i guess toms i'll just haveta try and stay online for as long as possible. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. oh! much thanks to charlsy for the comment!

wednesday post`

heylo! well, to count the time correctly, i'm actually owed 1hr 10 mins online to fulfill my pissy 2 hour restriction by PIG mum, but since she'd rather EAT ME ALIVE o_O :P than allow me to stay online for that time, i just want to type 2 things.
1. today, em was hard at work ploddingn 1950 steps. and,
2. QUEENSLANDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that's 4 in a row to us, you stinky new south welshman :P toms, when i try to sit online for 3 hours and 10 mins, to make up the time that was denied to me tonight, i must remember to send an email to poor dr. mak down in NSW. and gloat. majorly. :P
anyways, it was karol walsh who came this arco, and after getting a nice hot shower with a hairwash, i had my hard-won-after chunky stockpot soup with a slice of bread that i maragarined :P myself and a cup of tea with 2 teaspoonfuls of sweet stuff. then i had to endure a physio session with vincent. >< but i survived, and when we got home, karol kindly made me another cuppa, white and two, and PIG mum kindly poured me half a plateful of my yummy honey soy chicken crisps. karol gave my left arm/hand a massage, then we did a crossword together, before taking me to the loo once more. i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. i expect to see her on friday now. amanda's prolly still having a sulk, wherever she lives. :P
dear dad prayed with me before i tucked in on dinner. rice tonight, with lotsa bok choy (well, it was some asian vegie :P), 2 little slices of beef, and a small but delicious chunk of some ham and egg omelette. dinner was washed down with a mug of fruit and vegie juice - in a new jar, i finished the last one. but em no likes this one - it's SOUR! >< yucky. ><
uncle colbert and samuel rocked over to watch state of origin II with us! so we all planted our bums on the sofa: me, uncle colbert then sam in order of left to right. then the fame began! and go the mighty maroons! funny thing was, i started needing the bathroom at 19th min, but i persuaded myself to stay and hold on till half time - i'm serious, the MOMENT the half time klaxon went off, i was like,"mum!! loo time!!!! ":P phew. i made it there! one mighty long tinkle, then 3 wee ones after that.
second half was just as exciting! uncle colbert was quite cross at poor ben hannant, who must've dropped the ball 3 or 4 times. my brave poor bear bear, he didn't faint this time! :P but he hid his face, burying himself into my fat tummy :P until i poked him and turned him around to watch the last 5 mins with me. and we won! queenslander!! lol, i'm so proud of these guys!
anyways, uncle colbert and sam took their leave - have i already said? mel and aunty winnie are in hong kong right now. anyways, after they left, PIG mum was all for kicking poor em to bed :( but she kindly let me pop online to at least record that the mighty maroons won! PIG mum points out that, who cares about the outcome of the last game; the series is ours :P anyways, i had better comply and haul my poor self off to PIG land. just remember, will try to sit online for like, 3+ hours toms. goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. QUEENSLANDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.P.S. i found and corrected 2 errors in my post tonight.

good evening! sorry, no plodding total from em yet, coz she still has vincent the physio to endure. >< argh, pateience and perserverance, she'll survive. so, what happened today?
-yup, em got to kiss dearest dad goodbye this morning, before she cuddled her dearest bear bear close and counted/sang herself back to some snoring. :p
-PIG mum dug em up. em wanted to do a stinky unspeakable, so much thanks to PIG mum who rolled her in, gave her a glass of water, and helped her to wipe afterwards, as ding dong! ping arrived!

- i settled down for ten's morning news as ding dong! aunty anne came to fetch PIG mum for their lunch date. and she bought me a new present, too! it's not quite the squeezy grapey ball, but it's still squeezy and colourful nonetheless. thanks, aunty anne. :)
-so PIG mum and aunty anne rocked off to do their shopping together (i think PIG mum told me that she needed to buy me aome more cranberry tablets). i just sat there and continued watching ten'snews with ping, who's completed her library technician course? graduation is next month, then she'll return to china to visit her mum and her only sibling, an older brother.

-i read my novel for awhile. ping watched dr. phil :P
-before PIG mum returned, ping Forced me to walk to the toilet, Forced me to walk over and wash my right hand - but kindly dried it for me, thanks - and Forced me to walk back to the dining hall.
-PIG mum returned, popped me my drugs for the day :P and signed ping off. ping's going to beijing soon! to visit her mum and her bro, who i think is 53.
-i rang dear dad, who still hadn't had lunch yet!
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have sadly been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer desk, and i popped online for awhile. but hmm ... it's almost 3:20and no carer here yet. >< maybe she's coming at 3:30 again?
anyways, will try to come back online to note down my plodding total and also to tell you if the mighty maroons have made history by squashing those new south welshman! cya then!
cheers,
em. ^^

-PIG mum rocked off to pig land :P karol forced me on 20mins of left hand exercises - just theraplaydough today :P karol gave my left arm/hand a massage, and i read the australia post (whoops, i thought it was the RACQ! o_O")mag for awhile.
-at 6:30, karol Forced me to walk over for piano practice. my right hand supported my left hand in thunking out twinkle twinkle once or twice, then played all the scales, some christmas carols, and other songs at karol's request (she likes waltzing matilda).

-time to leave, jenny/ka yee was super-helpful and handed me my stick. PIG mum made (PLEASE!

-i got dried, bandaged up ?(like amanda says, i'm falling apsrt :P) and rekitted. susan handed me my stick and Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-arvo tea was a cup of tea sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of honey, and a bowl of my hard-won-after yummy honey soy chicken chips.

-so, tea tonight: rice, lotsa sugarloaf? (dunno if that's really the name, but it looks like cabbage) and some beef. washed down with a yummy mug of fruit and vegie juice. i was very careful to stick the 'correct' fingers in to drink - hey, here's sth interesting! susan holds her mug the 'wrong' way too! she just sticks her third, ring and pinky in, leaving the pointer out. lol. i guess it's coz her mum's in zimbabewe (sp?) so there's no-one to yell at her for doing that. oh, and of course, PIG mum forced my poor left hand to hold onto the bowl as i ate. actually, i've given up on the 'if PIG mum forces my poor left hand to hold onto the bowl as i eat, i will only have max, 10 chews per bite before i haveta swallow'. see, it doesn't hurt my left hand, so i don't really give a crap. i'd rather not choke to my death :P
-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 back to the computer. to be honest, no idea if i've gone over my PISSY 2 hour time limit, coz we rang leanne! lee and her sister too are all in canberra visiting her - they're going toboginning(sp?)! anyways, i needed the bathroom after the phone call. >< so 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 to the loo, forced me to pull my own daks down, forced me to pull them back up after a tinkle, 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 over to wash and dry my left hand, and 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 back to the computer.
-well, i'm 99.999% certain that PIG mum would rather EAT ME ALIVE o_O than allow me to get my naruto fix, or even update myself on the news, so i guess i'd better call it a night here. hope everyone has a smashing week!
cheers,
em. ^^

-hehe, i must've done lotsa exercise in my sleep last night - em was still hungry afterwards!:P so much thanks to evelyn who kindly stuck a slice of bread in the toaster for me (wonder why she didn't need to ring dearest dad to ask him permission for that? :P) so i maragarined and apricot jammed :P that myself, and munched that down with a glass of yummy plain milk.
-evelyn Forced me to walk to the bathroom to brush my teeth, then Forced me to walk to the toilet. no guesses as to who had to do the dakking and un-dakking. then she Forced me to walk over to wash and dry my right hand (which, for some reason, is FREEZING right now. >< leftie's okay, though), before she Forced me to walk back to the gobbling table.
-ding dong! my visitors arrived! who came: charlsy, jess cheung, wells and sam so. so dad gave them raisin bread, and we chatted. i made myself 2 teacups of tea, white and 2. i think charlsy told me that uncle barry takes his tea or coffee sth like, white and TEN? o_O
-thanks to PIG mum who just cut some holes into a glove aunty anne brought for us; my poor right hand isslowly warming back up. :)
-we took apart my memory cards bible game and tried to give it a try!
-then, wells had to drive sam back home (wells has the same bday as ... becki? or someone else from church), and after trading emails with jess, she and charlsy said their byes byes too.
-i read for awhile until PIG mum came home. lol! dearest dad forced PIG mum to wear a face mask after she told him patients appeared with swine flu symptoms! :P
-lunch was a teacup of black tea and 3 small but yummy slices of garlic bread that dad had picked up from somewhere.
-ding dong! vincent the physio arived. >< first session:PT. neck exercises, left and right arm reachy ones, a couple laps of walking. ishould be thankful he let me off early!
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of thursday's post to read what iREALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum ><) me walk online, and i tootled online for awhile to await chrissy's arrival. argh, but do you know how annoying it is to have your mother notate the time she allows you on the net, i mean, i used to spend the PISSY two hours she now enjoys restricting me to just studying! ><
-ding dong! chrissy arrived, and after sticking my walkbelt on me, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of thursday's post to read what iREALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum ><) me walk into the laundry for my shower, of course forcing me to dak myself also. then i sat down, and it was nice to have a carer who doesn't object to the "you start undressing me from the bottom, and i'll start undressing me from the bottom."!
-so, a nice hot shower, hairwash today. i introduced her to my oven mitt :P
-i got dried, redressed. chrissy handed me my stick and Forced me to walk out to the dining room.
-arvo tea: a toasted cheese - thanks, chrissy!2 slices! - and ham sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles, and a cup of tea, sweetened with 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar.
-chrissy forced me on 45mins of arm exercises.
-aiya >< PIG mum is forcing poor em to go to bed now. so sorry for any mistakes in this post, i obviously haven't had time to edit. anyways, hope to see everyone at church toms, and fingers, toes and all other appendages crossed for some yummy lunch toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

thursday post

good afternoon! not a big plodding total from me to report, just 1014, but i had a big day out today!
-PIG mum dug em up, she used the pot :P then PIG mum fed her a mug of warm milo and an uncrunchy, sweet, white choc chip museli bar for breakfast. i wanted to use the bathroom once before she left, so that's where she made me walk. that's right, today's a thursday, i'm gonna type everything out once:
-whenever PIG mum ordered me to walk, i used to type that she FORCED :( me to. when she forbid me from using all capitals, i just used Forced until she decided that somehow, the entire word was offensive to her and banned it entirely. so then i switched to using the word 'contort', only for PIG mum to decide that she didn't like this word either. that was another word gone. so, PIG mum decides that hencefoprth, i could only use the word 'made'. anyways, i complied and used MADE until she put her foot down and demanded that it ALL had to be in lowercase. so i listened, but put that PIG mum 'gleefully' made me do it. that was, until charlsy left me a comment on this blog telling me that if i was to use made, it could not be preceeded by any other words. to be honest, i have no idea why i listen to him, i mean, afterall, it's MY blog, but i guess i do coz i have heaps and heaps of respect for him as a friend. and, regarding last night:
1. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk over to drink my nightly half a cuppa of milk (ahh, but i really do miss the days when she'd bring my half cuppa of milk over to me, in her eagerness to force me to bed).
2. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back to the bathroom for my nightly routine.
3. PIG mum forced my poor left hand to hold onto the teethbrush :P while my right hand did the toothpaste squeezing. my poor left hand also had to do the 3 after-brush rinses with my right hand.
4.after flossing and washing both hands (i really have no idea why PIG mum insists that i tilt my head up to floss, but no biggie. i can only comply), PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to dry them.
5. PIG mum forced me to dak myself for a tinkle.
6. after a pee, i stood back up and PIG mum forced me to pull my own daks back up.
7. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand.
8. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><)me walk back to bed, where i collapsed gratefully with a phew!
-and if i don't mention any of this again until next thursday, it means that it was ALL the same. no difference. >< righteo, let's continue with today's spotty points! karen won't be here for another 40mins; i should have plenty of time.
-then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, before she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk out to sparky.
-i greeted my old friend and waited patiently for the maxi taxi to arrive.
-it arrived, but i've forgotten the driver's name, sorry. but he's from turkey.
-a bit of difficulty getting the ramp down and me up, but we managed at the end and our driver tootled us off.
-PIG mum rang robert as we got off the highway to give him notice of our imminent arrival, and he met us there, also paying the driver.
-but uh oh. there was no ramp for me to get up onto the footpath! >< and sparky obviously couldn't manage the curb onto footpath ... so, thanks to PIG mum and robert who waved the traffic away as i scooted along the road.
-we caught the lift up; robert introduced us to some other staff members then got me to sit next to this other girl in a wheelchair called felicity. felicity handed me a pair of earphones so i could listen in to the caller.
-i heard a caller complaining of noisy dogs, one of someone wanting to rent some wharf space, and others who just wanted to see a particular staff member.
-felicity took us down to the lunch area (many lunchboxes in the fridge!) and we all enjoyed cups of tea. i was tremendously surprised/grateful that PIG mum actually put 2 teaspoonfuls of sugar into my tea - thanks!
-felicity told me that she's been at the call centre for more than ten years, she's married with no children, has a house husband, and is in a wheelchair coz she fell off a roof, the poor thing. ><
-time to go, PIG mum took me to the loo once more then called for a maxi taxi to come pick us up.
-i've forgotten the driver's name again, sorry >< but he was indian.
-back home, i tootled inside. PIG mum was a bit nasty and IMMEDIATELY took away sparky. :( oh well, until next time, my friend.
-lunch was my hard-won-for chunky stockpot soup! much thanks to PIG mum who popped a slice of bread in the toaster for me, and i magarined :P that myself, before dunking that into my yummy soup.
-also thanks to PIG mum who mixed me a warm chocolate nesquik.
-before marianna arrived, i wanted to go to the loo once. so PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk to the loo. thanks to her who passed me a mug of water also; i did a stinky unspeakable and wiped myself too. then PIG mum came to get me. she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my right hand, then made (PLEASE! GO NOW! to the top of today's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to the computer desk, where i tootled online.
-well, karen should be here in another 15mins or so. she's taking me to the library tonight, and i'm restricting myself to only one book. :S then, i hope she'll take me somewhere nice for dinner!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i found and corrected 2 errors in my post this arvo. and karen's here now, so i'll head off for a shower soon.

wednesday post

good afternoon! no plodding total from em yet; poor her still has vincent the physio to endure. >< ah, whatever. patience and perserverance, i'll survive. anyways, what happened today?
-em was originally proud of the fact that she'd taken herself over to use the pot :P once last night without falling to her death :P, but was most definitely NOT happy when she woke up this morning to find herself wet. >< ah well, at least i got through may incident-free. hopefully july will be better!
-PIG mum dug me up, got me kitted, then 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. ><) her walk out to the gobbling :p table, as ding dong! aunty frances arrived.
-i edited mum's letter saying that i allow her to pick up my change of name certificate as aunty frances kindly made me a mug of hot milo, and popped me my drugs for the day: a fish oil, a bilberry, and a cranberry. (i'm very hard core, aren't i? :P)then i signed the letter off for PIG mum, who went to the city to fetch my certificate.
-aunty frances pushed my chair around so i could watch ten's morning news (i know, i usually watch nine's morning news hour now, but the TV opened onto channel ten and i was just too lazy to change it :p) the most interesting surname i found was that of a reporter's, strahan. i wonder why it's pronounced 'strawn'? and thanks to aunty wendy who gave my dumb/sick/crazy :P left hand a massage.
-lunch time, aunty frances turned my chair back around to face the table, then went to fry my dumplings for me! 6 pork dumplings with chives, much thanks to aunty irene (jimmy and kerry's mother) who made them for us. much thanks also to aunty frances who gave me a little bowl of soya sauce so i could dunk my dumplings into them. aunty frances herself had some vermicelli for lunch that she'd gotten from 'dong gei'/vietnamese corner. she shared me with me 2 or 3 small slices of duck's ... kidney, i think it was? not bad, just very chewy!
-hey, susan's here! that's right, evelyn couldn't make it coz she's doing exams. but susan came in, and i thought, "umm ... i'm pretty sure evelyn's darker than that ... *take a closer look* ohh, it's susan!:P"
-so i read for a few pages, chatted for awhile. just before PIG mum returned, aunty frances Forced me to walk to the toilet, Forced me to walk over and wash my right hand - but kindly helped me dry it, thanks, and Forced me to walk back to my chair, just as PIG mum returned home, my shiny name change certificate in hand. wow, it cost a whopping $130!
-it's true, aunty france's poor son is allergic to CHOCOLATE. >< he doesn't break out in spots or anything, just gets hyperactive.
-right, showertime for me now. will be back after 8:30, ok? time is now ... 3:10pm
-good evening! time is now ... 9:14pm, and my final plodding total for wednesday now stands at 2009.so, where was i?
-we said our thanks and byes to aunty frances, then PIG mum came back to make (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 to the computer. i tootled online briefly until susan arrived.
-so, susan Forced me to walk to the bathroom, forcing me to undress every bit of me too. anyways, now i know that evelyn and PIG mum are the only two who like to force me to undress all of me; with the other carers, i start undressing me from the top, they start undressing me from the bottom, and we meet somewhere in the middle.
-but i got a nice hot shower - no hairwash today. i dried myself, put my own tee and jumpers on at susan's order, then she got the rest of me kitted. (eep, my poor right hand is freezing! i think i'll ask bear bear if i can borrow his nice, warm, fat :P furry tummy to warm it back up. i'm sure he won't mind. :)then i stood back up at the rail, susan forced me to yank my own daks back up, then she handed me my stick and Forced me to walk out to the dining room.
-arvo tea: a toasted cheese - thanks to PIG mum for 2 slices! i'd originally asked for 2 slices and mayo, but she decided that i could only have one, so i chose two cheese - and ham sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles. also a cup of water-tea, at first, it really was just a cup of coloured water, but i asked PIG mum please for more sugar, and much thanks to her who stuck in 1/4 of a teaspoon in. so, my cup of water-tea either had 3/4 of a teaspoonful, or 1 1/4 of one. as long as it was warm, i was happy. :)
-time to go, susan kindly moved her car up the driveway a bit so i wouldn't have to walk as much, then she Forced me to walk to her car, also forcing me to buckle my own seatbelt.
-off she tootled us off to unique physiotherapy, listening to B105.
-susan Forced me to walk in. vincent met us and Forced me to walk the rest of the way in.
-physio today: the left foot ones dom dopm told PIG mum to force me to do, so the botox can have it's greatest effect, sit-to-stand exercises, left and right arm reachy exercises, stick exercises, and just random walking around ones. when it was finally over, he Forced me to walk back out, and handed me back to susan, who Forced me to walk back to the car.
- again, she forced me to buckle my own seatbelt,off she tootled us back home, flipping lotsa radio stations. triple M and J ... i think triple M is 104.5FM, and triple J is 107.7FM? like that, anyway.
-PIG mum met us at the door, and 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 back in.
-yay! thanks to susan who mixed me a warm chocolate nesquik, and PIG mum who cut me a slice of rhubarb pie, and even let me put a drop of custard on it!
-susan gave me a hand massage, and i just listened to the news, until she forced me on 20mins of hand exercises (PIG mum claims it was only 5; you be the judge.)
-i beat her in chinese checkers! so now i lead, 3-2.
-at 6;45, susan Forced me to walk to the loo, forced me to pull my own daks down. i askedher please for a cup of water, then did a stinky unspeakable, wiping myself too. susan came to get me; she forced me to pull my own daks back up, before she Forced me to walk over to wash and dry my right hand, before she Forced me to walk back to my dining room chair.
-i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. she'll be back on sunday, and is having spaghetti and basil for dinner tonight.
-PIG mum galloped :P back to force poor em on a forced march up to my room and back down. i should be thankful, she let me off the hand exercises, coz i'd already done a bunch with susan.
-dinner tonight: rice, lotsa lettuce, and some yummy fish fillet with half a drop of mayo. well, she claims that it was heaps more. oh well, again, you be the judge. of course, PIG mum forced my poor left hand to hold onto the bowl while i ate, and dinner was washed down with a yummy mug of fruit and vegie juice.
-thank god you're here time! so 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 over to the TV chair, forcing me to get up again after i'd already planted my bum on it to move the chair into a better position. my favourite lines from the show:
actor: the sniffer dog's going crazy in the backyard!
comedian:"oh, that's coz i fertilise with pal." hehe!
actor:'we've run out of vegetarian meals ..."
comedian;"then you'd better tell them - get ready to eat meat!" lol!
-PIG mum and dad plopped me back intop sparky and ordered me to practise driving a few circles. no major crashes :P
-i popped back online briefly to blog my plodding count for today.
-well, toms should be fun! work trial with robert at the call centre! i hope it goes well, that i don't do anything too stupid. >< then karen's coming at night to take me to the library! i better only borrow one book; i'm only returning one, see. and i wonder where we'll go for dinner? anyways, goodnite!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i found and corrected 4 errors in my post tonight.
P.P.S. PIG mum just reminded me, karen gets to leave early toms night, at 7:45, coz she came came earlier last week so PIG mum could go see the dentist.

tuesday post

good evening! dunno if i'll have time to finish off this post tonight, i may have used up most of my MEASELY two hour time limit as imposed by PIG mum, but let's just see how far i get, okies?
-firstly, em was hard at work today, plodding 4406 steps. and, she managed to take herself over to use the bedpot :P once too, without falling to her death. :p anyways, what happened today?
-PIG mum dug em up, got her kitted, fed her a choc chip (i think it was an uncrunchy sweet white choc chip one, but i can't remember, sorry :P) and a mug of milo before making (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) her walk out to the car.
-off she tootled us off to the PA for physio, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 1.
-luckily, we found a park on arrival. PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk all the way in.
-can't remember what we actually did at first, but dom dom told PIG mum to the BIRU gym. i asked PIG mum to take me to the bathroom first. so she made(PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk to the loo, forced me to dak myself, forced me to pull my own pants back up afterwards, made (PLEASE!

GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk all the way to the BIRU gym.
-linelle let us in, and directed us to a bed. i flopped onto it, and asked PIG mum to please pass me a pillow, but she didn't seem inclined to, for whatever reason. oh well. i just leaned over to get it myself.
-dr. hazelton came in, with some other doctor from some asian country who taught me how to say 'thank-you' in her language, but i've already forgotten it, sorry. ><
-em got jabbed. oww. ><
-dom dom put me on an easy walker and Forced me to walk back to the day hospital gym.
-just mat work today, with a male physio asisstant.
-habib came with morning tea! too bad, PIG mum must've told him to put one or less teaspoonfuls of sugar in it, coz it certainly tasted like coloured water. :(
-time to go, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk back out and she tootled us back home.
-PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk inside. no guesses as to who had to do the dakking and un-dakking. then she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to wash and dry my left hand, before she made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk outside to await marianna's arrival. i read my novel to pass the time. PIG mum fielded a phonecall saying that poor marianna was running late.
-but she got here eventually, so, after unloading sparkless into her boot, PIG mum made (PLEASE! GO NOW! TO THE beginning of thursday's post to see what i REALLY want to type, but have unfortunately been TOO HEAVILY CENSORED by PIG mum. ><) me walk over to marianna's car, and off she tootled us!
-but not to the china project, unfortunately. that's finished, there's now some boring impressionism thing up.
-she drove us to her workplace first. plopped into sparkless, we wheeled me up. i met one of her colleagues, though i'vealready forgotten her name, sorry. we also went to the loo - i managed, BTW - before we rolled me to look at all these cafe menus.
-we stopped for a small bucket of chips each. i drowned mine in gravy :P marianna had aoli in hers. she told me what that was, actually ... mayo and garlic? dunno, sth like that, anyway.
-we rolled me back to her car - marianna accidentally hit a curb and almost TIPPED me out! o_O luckily, i held on tight. we copped a few laughs from a couple of old ladies sitting on a bench, too. ><" :P
-back inside the car, we had a quick discussion and decided on kebabs for lunch. so marianna tootled us to the kebab shop.
-she Forced me to walk in. i got a small chicken kebab, lettuce, tomato, no onion, cheese, pineapple and LOTSA mayo :p marianna had my softdrink and got me some kind of juice. (PIG mum says it was a small bottle of OJ.)
-marianna Forced me to walk back to her car. she handed me her phone to ring PIG mum to tell her that we were running late.
-but not late enough for a stop at maccas! :P we parked, i hobbled a few steps to reach sparkless, then we rolled me in together.
-i tried a mcflurry for the first time! :) with oreos. yum yum! marianna got herself a cheeseburger and a small coke.
-we had a yak. marianna told me that her partner, david, is a builder and they're on the hunt for a new house; actually, she'd be going to inspect one right after she drove me home.
-we wheeled me back out, and marianna tootled us back to my home.
-we said our byes and thanks to marianna. but i didn't get very far into the house at all, when PIG mum ordered a u-turn into the car. turns out we were going to coles for our tuesday cooking shopping.
-PIG mum and amanda gleefully Forced (second time) me to walk all around coles, both hands hanging onto the shopping trolley. we picked up apples, cream, custard and a packet of tim tams. oh, and a packet of mint slice too, i think. oh, sorry! PIG mum says the tim tams were mint slice flavoured? dunno.
-the checkout lady was very nice, said i wasn't a happy vegemite :( she's a registered nurse! lol, PIG mum can go work at coles when she retires. and she told PIG mum that i was going well. :)
-PIG mum tootled us home.
-ai, PIG mum is forcing poor em to go to bed now. >< ai, i can only comply. goodnite.

good afternoon! no plodding total from em today, coz she hasn't frozen her toes off at hydro yet. >< i mean, it's winter now, why, oh why, cannot PIG mum give poor em a break and postpone anymore hydrotherapy sessions until spring, 1st september if she's actually that eager to force poor em into even more exercises. but no, guess i'll just have to grit my teeth and last through another session. actually, i was thinking if i could ask my hydrotherapist please for a break. ai, i'll survive. so, what happened today?
-PIG mum dug em up, fed her a chewy (that means not crunchy) milk choc chip museli bar and a mug of warm milo (also forcing me to hold the cup the 'correct' way, ie with my pointer and third finger in the ear) and got me kitted for the day. then she 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 out to the 4WD.
-off she tootled us to UQ for physio, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 1.
-well, we got a doorknock, so that'll be amanda. i'll bbl tonight, after 7pm, ok? time is now ... 2:56pm
-good evening! time is now 8:32pm, and my final plodding total, including hydro, now stands at 4908. anyways, where was i?
-i went to the loo on arrival, no prizes if you figure out who did the dakking and un-dakking :P then 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 over to wash and dry my right hand, before she 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 into the physio gym, where chris was waiting with a sexy :P belt.
-more cone exercises,a game or two of snap (i won them all :P) and laps and laps of walking along the corridors.
-before we left, i gave a chocolate bar to chris and steph, coz they'll both be leaving.
-PIG mum tootled us back home, still listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 1.
-lunch was my hard won-after chunky chicken and corn soup. thanks to PIG mum who stuck a slice of bread in the toaster, and i magarined it myself. :p dear dad tried a spoonful of my soup, but he didn't like :P i was careful to give PIG mum a spoonful too. oh, and when dear dad went to the bathroom/answer his mobile, i nicked a chunk of chicken off his plate. there was still more there, of course! :P
- i read for awhile, thenPIG 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 over to the net.
-PIG amanda Forced me to walk to the gobbling :p table, where arvo tea was a cup of tea sweetened with a single spoonful of honey, and a toasted cheese - poo poo, only one slice, so it was ENTIRELY >< too thin - ham and mayo sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles or squares.
-i told PIG mum my head was ouchies, so thanks to her who popped me 2 panadol. i think i'll ask for another 2 tonight. and i'm sure my beloved bear bear will rub my tummy for me. (remember, he says that a tummy rub is the perfect cure for a headache.) :)
-amanda Forced me to walk to the bathroom, where she got me kitted for hydro. then she Forced me to walk over to wash my right hand, but kindly dried it for me, thanks, and Forced me to walk out to barry, who looked remarkably dapper for a car that had been involved in a traffic incident :P
-off amanda tootled us off to hydro, listening to B105.
-amanda Forced me to walk inside. funny, as we were walking in, a car passed us by, and a man yelled out, "hi emily!" to which i yelled hi back, but i had no idea who the fella was. amanda hadn't a clue, either :p
-anne stuck my dumb/sick/crazy :P left ankle into KAB, and plopped me into the nice warm water.
-hydro today: walking forwards and sideways, squatting, a roll to each side, some left arm work, and 2 of my favourite head dunks at the end. :P
-i got winched back out, and amanda wheeled me in for a nice hot shower - obviously, hairwash today.
-i went for a tinkle afterwards, got redressed. amanda Forced me to walk back outside, to where ann was waiting with a postcard for me from judith! then amanda Forced me to walk back to barry and tootled us back home, stopping on the way for a milk run.-
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. she kindly fed me 2-3 round sao crackers, and amanda poured me my little vanilla malt breaka she'd gotten me. i read out the postcard from judith out to them, like mr. hall says, there's no turkey in turkey. just lamb and chicken. :p
-amanda gave my left arm/hand a hand massage as i listened to the news.
-at 6:45, she Forced me to walk to the loo. i asked her please for a glass of water then did a stinky unspeakable, wiping myself too.
-amanda came to get me, Forcing me to walk over and wash my right hand - but kindly helped me dry it, thanks - then Forcing me to walk back to the gobbling :P table.
-i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. she'll be back toms - we're gonna make rhubarb and apple pie! hope it goes well and doesn't taste too gross :P
-dinner: rice, lotsa beans and wombok, and a slice of yummy chicken. oh, and some snapper (lol, i keep thinking it's 'slapper', my bad ><"). dinner was washed down with a yummy mug of fruit and vege juice, and of course PIG mum forced my poor left hand to hang onto the bowl as i ate. oh well, i guess that's just incentive for me to eat as fast as i can, max 10 chews a bite before i swallow.
-PIG mum forced poor em on 19+ (lol, i was just gonna write 20, but PIG mum says it was only 19 :)mins of hand/arm exercises.
-dear dad came home, and i read out to him the postcard judy had sent me!
-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 to the net, but i'm pretty sure she's booting me offline now, don't think i can squeeze in any news articles. oh well. toms, i hope!
-well, please think of poor em toms - she has to arrive at the PA by 8am to get nasty botox injection/s! >< but i think PIG mum said she'll gimmee some chocolate to make it all better :) then, even better! marianna's gonna take me out to see the china project! i think it's near southbank, hope it'll be fun! i wonder if we can get kebabs for lunch ... i hope so!
cheers,
em. ^^

-anyways, after breakfast, PIG mum made (PLEASE!

-bible study time, and 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 into the bible study area. i was first to arrive, yeah! :P
-we had a combined session today! ie we didn't divide into our usual two groups. so we all took turns reading out questions, verses and answering. aunty a led most of it; i think uncle chong just sat there and listened.
-when PIG mum came to pick me up, i told her i wanted to use the bathroom again. so she 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 to the loo, forced me to dak myself, forced me to pull my trousers back up after a long tinkle, made (PLEASE!

-seriously, my ENTIRE plate was VEGETABLES! lotsa yummy beans and wombok, actually. and one small chunk of chicken, and another of a yummy potato bake.
-anna told me to try a cup of the yummy desert she made (one desert is the sandy dunes, the other dessert is the dish served after the main course; the sweet stuff. can anyone tell me which is which? thanks :)it had this funny name, sth like paw paw cha cha? PIG mum says it like that, though.
-time to go, 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 back out to the car, and she tootled us back home, listening to westlife's unbreakable volume 1.
-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 back into the house. she popped me my drugs :P(relax, just a fish oil, a bilberry and a cranberry tablet :P sheesh, what do you think she gives me, heroin? :P). then i tootled online for awhile until susan arrived. she Forced me to walk into the laundry, where she proved to be like evelyn and forced me to undress every bit of me. i just ask, is it really such a big SIN if i start undressing me from the top, and the carer starts undressing me from the bottom? well, PIG mum told me gleefully that soon it'd always be like that. oh well.
-a nice hot shower, no hairwash today. i remembered to ask susan to stand on my dumb/sick/crazy :P left foot when i stood up so she could give my back bottom a scrub.
-i drip dried, then susan ordered me to put my own tee and jumpers on. i complied, then she got the rest of me kitted. i stood up at the bar, susan forced me to pull my own daks up, then handed me my stick and Forced me to walk out to the dining room.
-arvo tea: a toasted cheese - too bad, only two slices, so it was ENTIRELY too thin>< and ham sandwhich, cut into 4 triangles. thanks to susan who also brought me a bag of her red tea - rooibos, i think it's called. it's naturally sweet, so she only stuck a teaspoon of honey in and it still tasted great. :)
-PIG mum told her that however long i did exercises with her on a sunday, she'd add it onto my MEASELY two hours she restricts me to. so i did 45mins with susan, just the theraplaydough :P and random left arm lifting, so i hope PIG mum had better bloody well keep her promise!
-anyways, around 6pm susan kindly fed me an apple and two little round crackers. oh, and gave my left hand/arm a massage, too.
-at 6:45pm, susan Forced me to walk to the loo, and also forced me to pull my own daks down. i asked her to please pass me a glass of water, which she kindly did. so i did a stinky unspeakable and wiped myself too. susan came back to force me to pull up my own trousers. then she Forced me to walk over to wash and dry my right hand, before she Forced me to walk back to the dining table.
-i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. she'll be having chunky vegetable soup for dinner tonight, and she also rocked off 6 mins early.
-i got my weekly naruto fix :P until it was dinnertime.
-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 over to the gobbling :P table. dinner tonight: rice, lotsa wombok and beans, i think a tiny chunk of chicken? and some queen queen salmon :P washed down with a mug of yummy fruit and vegie juice. dunno what i did wrong, coz i somehow brought the wrath of the parents down on me. well, like i said i'm used to at least one from each parent per week.
-so 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 back to the computer table, and i tootled back online. dad came to threaten that he'd turn off the computer if he caught me with my legs crossed, so i've been careful to keep them on the floor. i often sleep with my legs crossed at night, though, apparently, PIG mum tells me that i've done that ever since i was a baby.
-anyways, i've just got physio at UQ toms. hope it'll go well! hmm ... wonder what chance i'll have in asking PIG mum to please take me out to lunch? i know she said that max, i'm only allowed out for lunch once a week (dunno why?) but this week, i haven't been out at all. :(
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i found and corrected 3 errors in my post tonight.
