tuesday post57

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 1797 steps today; secondly, TWFT topic's 'you can get beyond the past' and thirdly, i'm still owed THIRTY-ONE MINUTES online after i get home from toastmasters tonight!! righteo, events for today?
-i used the pot :P twice last night, and once more when dearest dad left for work around 8am. then i cuddled florence and successfully fell back asleep again before PIG mum came and poked me awake with "fifteen more minutes."
-when she came back inside, i swung over to the pot :P once more for three tinkles. PIG mum got me kitted, then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the kitchen, where she gleefully forced poor ela to open the taps @ least five times before letting me sit.
-actually, coZ we were running late, PIG mum buttered and jammed :Pone slice of bread for me. i also drank one yummy mug of warm horlicks 'incorrectly'.
-PIG mum popped me some drugs :P one garlic, one bilberry, one garlic and two fish oil.
-after taking those, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD. we listened to jacky cheung's live concert from about 2007, and of course horrid PIG mum gleefully forced poor em to buckle her seatbelt all day.
PIG mum tootled me off to UQ for physio. once she entered the highway, i closed both eyes and had 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.
-PIG mum took me once to the bathroom upon arrival, of course gleefully forcing me to dak myself. then i went over to wash and dry both hands while she used the loo herself.
-of course, horrid PIG mum flounced off to py and pester margaret without bothering to pass me a magazine first. luckily, though, some man passed along the corridor about two minutes after PIG mum had left, and kindly passed me the madison magazine to browse until the dark skinned student came for me (forgot her name, sorry).
-she gave me the blue broken broomstick to walk inside with.
-oh, sh*t. >< the bloody tilt table was back. >< first activity, going on that for around twenty minutes. OWW. >< but huge thanks to lynette who came to hold era's hand. :)
-afterwards, jake came back with his bung left knee, all strapped up.
-i did several sit-to-stands with him, then ela did some cone work and finally i trudged four laps with him along the corridor. the lady from the musculo-skeletal clinic wandered out to say hi.
-i finished with some more standing balance and cone work for era before calling it quits.
-PIG mum took me to the loo once more, then started driving us home.
-only there was a crash on the highway, and we were stuck there for, like, FORTY MINUTES ><"
-by the time we made it back to warrigal rd., PIG mum was too hungry to take me for lunch @ sushi train. actually, she was even too hungry to make me walk out to buy the pork salad roll myself! i just waited in the 4WD and yelled "thanks!" to the lady manning the counter. she just laughed, waved back @ me and called, "bye!"
-back home, i went once more to the loo (of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything) then sat down and enjoyed my yummy pork salad roll and one mug of chocolate milk. :)
-after that, i plopped online.
-cathy's coming soon, and taking me to toastmasters tonight! :D but curse kris, she's the one that's left me without any dinner. ><
-toms: one torture session with vincent the bloody physio, then aunty wendy's coming to mind me. think cherish is coming, too. anyhow, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. good timing, cathy's just arrived. :)
