good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 3006 steps today (lol, i'm just passed three grand. XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'reeds and wicks' and thirdly, the spam count for the week's fourteen. righteo, let's start off with yesterday's events first!
-my new carer arrived with a flat tyre. she went to have it fixed before coming inside and meeting me. XD
-shower first - hairwash today. also thanks to the carer (yes, i've forgotten her name) who helped me rinse out my hair, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-after getting dried, creamed and rekitted, i went out to the gobbling :P table and enjoyed the leftovers of what i'd had for lunch from the calamvale BBQ chinese restaurant plus one cup of tea, white and two, my cup for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-then, 'twas off to book club i went! the carer took me once to the loo, then left me with phil and all the other ladies.
-lol, turns out everyone bar jan (who came late) thought the book was boring as! XD
-also thanks to erika who helped me once to the loo around 7:10pm; i managed fine by myself.
-afterwards, while waiting for carer to come collect me, phil kept me company and we chatted. wow'll he'll have worked with logan libraries for TWENTY-FIVE YEARS come july!!
-when my carer came, phil kindly went to borrow the book out for me, while the carer took me once to the loo. actually, when phil came back with next month's book (it's this big one about the columbine massacre), he also gave me a new library card! "coz your old one was getting frayed." says he. "just remember to sign it when you get home." :)
-then, carer tootled me off to the hyperdome! i haven't been there for MORE THAN FIVE YEARS!!
-dinner first; we both ordered a two piece feed, lol. funny thing was that just as we were to start eating, a young man approached us and asked if he could pray for us! he had this list of ppl to pray for, and one was "someone wheelchair-bound."
-as usual, carer ate faster than me, but she went off to buy herself some chocolate to eat, and came back with a little bag of honeycomb chocolates to eat for me! "no, no, you don't haveta pay me back," she refused me getting out my wallet.
-after dinner, carer took me once to the loo, where i also let era open the tap lotsa and lotsa times. she asked why i did that, i explained, and she said "fair enough."
-after the loo trip, carer asked me where i'd like to go shopping, but i asked, "can we just browse from one end to the other? coz i don't recognise this place @ all!"
-so that's what we did. :) the mr. toy's toyworld where i bought my most beloved bear bear from is still there! unfortunately, it had already closed shop for the night, but i make a note to tell bear bear all about it when i got home. :)
-we made a quick stop into bi-lo for some helga's bread before going to the loo once more then heading home.
-during the drive home, carer told me about her son, who's twenty-seven/twenty-eight. he's got the same condition that will has, but has never learned how to talk. about three months ago, she moved him into shared/supported accomodation, when she realised she couldn't take care of him anymore, but she still goes and visits him three times each week. she divorced his father when the baby was only one month old, and didn't realise that there was anything wrong with him until he was like eight months old but still hadn't learnt how to sit up yet!
-back home, repeat the usual nightly routine, zzz.
-oh, and i chewed era's fingernails short last night. XD
-today: i used the pot :P three times last night and once more when dearest dad left for work around 8am. then bear bear and cuddled and snored until PIG mum poked me awake with "fifteen more minutes."
-actually, this morning, bear bear very excitedly told dad, "dad! last night, emily went to the hyperdome, and she visited the country where i was born!" dad just laughed, and patted bear bear on his fat tummy. XD
-anyways, when PIG mum came back, i used the pot :P for three tinkles, she got me kitted, then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the kitchen, where she gleefully, pointlessly and therefore SPITEFULLY forced poor ela to open the tap five times. then she gleefully forced poor ela to grab me three weetbix for breakfast, which i enjoyed with the thinnest and shortest stream of honey ever. can't remember if there was any banana. XD
-i also can't remember did i do a stinky unspeakable afterwards. XD
-but anyways, of course PIG mum gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, and we also listened to johnny ip's english disc all day, too! i like his voice. :)
-PIG mum tootled me off to UQ for physio. until she entered coronation drive, i kept both eyes closed and had a mostly 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. once onto coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes, also opening and closing her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me to the loo once, then surprisingly gave me that country style/life magazine before she went downstairs to pay margit!
-hey, aunty yvonne's here now, bbl, okies?
cheers,
em. ^^
