friday post 56

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 3316 steps today; secondly, TWFT topic's 'looking forward to better days'; thirdly, the spam count for the week's nine (unusually low? it's always been into the double digits, and even triple digits last year!) and lastly, i'm still owed THIRTY-TWO MINUTES online after aunty frances comes and gives me a shower!! righteo, events for today?
-i used the pot :P three times last night, and once more as dearest dad left for work this morning. florence and i didn't fall back asleep before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes," so i'm presuming i had a great sleep last night and didn't need any more rest. :)
-after i used the pot :P for three more tinkles, PIG mum got me kitted then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she gleefully forced poor ela to open the tap @ least five times before letting me sit.
-breakfast was one slice of toast, spread exceedingly thinly with the merest dab of butter and yummy strawberry jam. i drank one yummy mug of warm horlicks 'incorrectly', and also took one wee sip from the required mug of water 'incorrectly', too.
-after i'd finished breakfast, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to the 4WD and tootled me off to UQ for physio. of course, she gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, and she listened first to jacky cheung's live concert. as for me, i spent the trip until we entered coronation drive having a silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i'd need to get through today, giving all the happiness and all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied, then stretching ela out until we reached UQ.
-i went once to the loo upon arrival; of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself. then i went to wash and dry both hands while she went herself.
-PIG mum was her horrid self who refused to pass me any mag before flouncing off downstairs to pay and pester margaret, but luckily, there was a whole bunch of students waiting around in the hallway; i just craned my head around and asked one of them to please pass me a mag, which i happily browsed until jake came for me.
-only i got the weeks mixed up! >< today's his last day, and i didn't buy him a chocolate bar! ><
-not that i felt like giving him a chocolate bar when he and katrina stuck me up on that bloody tilt table for thirty minutes. XDmargaret wandered over to say hi. :)
-the tilt bloody table torture routine over, we settled into more usual stuff, like sit-to-stands and some cone work for ela. no therapeutic break was required today. XD
-when we left, PIG mum took me once more to the loo, again gleefully forcing me to dak myself. then she tootled me off to see naz for lunch!
-naz asked where i'd been; i told him i'd had an MRI. after asking me how it went, i asked him, "did you remember to save me a big spud?" he laughed, replied, "i saved you a medium-sized spud." well, if what he fed me was medium, i wouldn't need any dinner after i ate a large one! XD
-i rang dearest dad while PIG mum went to get me an orange juice. he was @ west end, about to have lunch.
-after lunch, PIG mum took me once to the toilet before tootling me off for a torture session with vincent the bloody physio. ><
-firstly, i give up on dodging that noisy alarm that alerts vincent to whenever someone enters. XD i'm too tall to duck under it, but too short to just jump over it. ><
-well, ela could only complete half her required task today, meaning vincent the bloody physio forced poor erf to get on the bloody wobble board for five minutes. >< but i sang him the 'joy to the world, the teacher's dead' song that narelle's daughter had taught me, only i swapped the word 'teacher' with 'physio'. XD
-when we left, PIG mum tootled us home and i went once to the loo before returning online. needless to say, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything.
-well, there's about thirty minutes before aunty frances comes and showers me; i'm off to find a story for the lil kiddies; it's my turn for storytelling on sunday!
-fingers crossed i can come back online afterwards, else it's just SHINE fellowship tonight. sherraine's coming toms instead of tess; wonder if she can cook me any fried rice for lunch? jack's coming in the arvo; must remember to write questions for him. righteo, fingers crossed i can come back online later, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,
em. ^^
