-only it took me ages to complete it, like, fifty minutes! ><
-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED me to walk over to the sink, where she gleefully forced poor ela to wash all the dishes (ela scrubbed away like 120 times, @ least!) i don't mind that, coz it's helping her regain some functional use; i just really hate having to stand there and do it! >< like i've said, i do most things sitting down now (even showering), and when required, i can walk short distances, but the hardest thing for me is to just STAND! ><
-afterwards, PIG mum lemme plop back online~
-toms: massage @ midday.
-fingers crossed PIG mum'll remember her PINKY-PROMISE to me that we can have lunch @ sunnybank oriental/dong fong afterwards!
-argh, amanda's asking us about dinner after next thursday's book club; i need her decision, coz if we're really going out for dinner, i need to ring alice from CODA and ask if i can swap outings, i.e. go out to garbo toms night instead of thursday night coz we'll be having dinner after book club!
-righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!

-aunty wendy was already waiting when we arrived home. PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk inside to the gobbling :P table, and i continued reading that alexander mccall smith novel while PIG mum and aunty wendy yakked.
-when PIG mum left for some shopping, aunty wendy served me lunch: one plateful of fried lettuce and carrot, two crumbed fish fillets with some mayo, one ... can't remember the name ... asian? pear and one mug of yummy chocolate nesquik, my first for today that i could hold 'incorrectly'.
-five minutes after i finished eating, aunty wendy took me once to the loo. i asked her please for a mug of water then did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning briefly against the side rail and asking percy the saint/angel please to help me through the rest of today.
-afterwards, i happily readmccall smith novel for 1.25 hours. aunty wendy came and did the rubbing for ela from 1:30 till 2:30. PIG mum actually came home around 2pm.
-before aunty wendy left, she took me once more to the loo.

-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (carol helped with my back and era), mostly creamed myself (again, carol helped with my back and era), and mostly rekitted my top half. i also pulled elf's sock on, carol did her AFO then i went over to the loo for a tinkle. then i finished putting on my shoes and socks, having one more tinkle when carol was repinning pedro onto my pants.
-carol Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea, where i enjoyed the chocolate cupcake with chocolate icing that kat had given me! i also drank one mug of tea, white and two, 'incorrectly'. *sigh* another restriction that horrid PIG mum's imposed on me: carol wouldn't lemme drink any milk. :( i usually enjoy any chocolate with milk, see.:(
-anyways, carol massaged ela for just over thirty minutes today, painting her chocolate cake colour with chocolate icing dots.
-before she left, carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. she'll come back next monday.
-i returned online, but when nature called again suddenly, took myself slowly and safely once more to the loo, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-anyways, dearest dad's home cooking dinner; i presume PIG mum's still pigging away upstairs. XD
-again, fingers crossed i can bbl, else hope everyone's having a smashing week!

em. ^^

wednesday post 124

-before gleefully FORCING :( me to walk to the 4WD, PIG mum first gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the sink where she gleefully forced poor ela to wash all the morning's dishes.
-after PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD, she tootled me off to physio @ UQ. of course, she gleefully forced me to buckle my own seatbelt all day; we also listened to westlife 'greatest hits' album all day too, after PIG mum's ronan keating album suddenly karked it. personally, i'm just offended coz PIG mum blamed ME for killing it! ><
-as usual, once PIG mum exited the driveway i closed both eyes and had a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him to please help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. opening my eyes somewhere coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo then kindly left me with a bridge magazine while she went back downstairs to pay margit.
-lauren came with a walkbelt and Forced me to walk into the gym. physio today: work for ela, lotsa mat work and work inside the parallel bars. lauren also touched up on the orange fingernail polish she'd given me. and she'd dressed up as pikachu! this other student dressed up as spiderman! as for me, lauren got a pillow and tied it with a walkbelt around my waist to complete my pumpkin look. jess was a pirate, kat was pocahontas and we all posed for photos. best of all, kat gave me a slice of chocolate cake to take home for arvo tea! :D
-PIG mum took me once more to the loo before driving us home. this time, era helped ela stretch for the full fifteen minutes and she opened and closed her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five.

-lol, the table topics master chose me first (ok, so i asked him for a question XD)! but sharon (our toastmaster for this meeting) had given us mini mars bars just before calling on the table topics master to begin, so i stuffed the mars bar into my mouth, then apologised, "sorry if i'm not very clear tonight; i'm eating the foodmadam toastmaster just gave me."

~i used the pot :P three times last night, once more this morning and once more when dearest dad left for work, before successfully cuddling bear bear and falling back asleep with him before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes.'
-when she came back (almost twenty-two minutes today! PIG mum explained that she had been on the phone), i used the pot :P once more for @ least three tinkles and PIG mum got me kitted. then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush my teeth (poor ela), before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was three yummy weetbix with the shortest and thinnest stream of honey ever, plus one mug of water and all my usual drugs. :P
-after breakfast, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the 4WD then tootled me off to UQ for physio. as usual, once she left our driveway, i closed both eyes and had a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him to please help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. opening my eyes somewhere coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo then kindly left me with a bridge magazine while she went back downstairs to pay margit.
-dunno why, 'twas karen who Forced me to walk into the gym today and not lauren.
-physio today: only four laps walking today (or maybe six), a standing calf stretch and lotsa mat work.
-afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, bitching @ me how karen had told her that i had been complaining! next tuesday, i must ask karen: exactly how did i complain? i mean, when i was doing mat work, she ordered me not to lean against the plinth for thirty seconds; i complied, even not counting that thirty seconds out aloud coz counting somehow pisses her off. once the thirty seconds was up, i relaxed myself slowly back onto the plinth, and yet somehow that counts as complaining?! lol, i've honestly no clue...
-because of that, PIG mum said she wouldn't take me to sunnybank oriental/dong fong for lunch, also saying that she's feeling crook.
-instead, we had lunch @ sushi train. the yummy kaarage udon for me, the kaKIAGEage udon for PIG mum; we both drank green tea (i sucked the teabag once XD) and PIG mum even lemme take two inari back home for arvo tea~
-back home, i went to the loo once (of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything) then walked myself slowly and safely to the computer, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-yay, now i've got like forty-five minutes for myself! :D
-annette's coming to watch me shower @ 4pm, then we're going out to toastmasters; it's a speechfest tonight!

-dinner: alas, 'twas the yucky rice again, but PIG mum has PINKY-PROMISED me that she'll make the yummy white rice for dinner toms night. :o) which makes me feel slightly better, but only slightly coz that means i won't be allowed to grab some dinner after toastmasters with annette. :o( but there weren't any greens for dinner! XD just lotsa soup potato and carrot, some more coral trout and ling fish (me: BAHAHAHAHA!!! XD). oh, and maybe some beancurd?
-dinner was spooned down with one bowl of the usual soup (potato, carrot, tomato, maybe sth else) then i walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-toms: late morning physio @ UQ with lauren; fingers crossed i can have lunch @ sunnybank oriental/dong fong afterwards!
-annette's coming to watch me shower toms, then taking me to toastmasters; it's the speechfest! only thing ... there'll be table topics, too? also, i dunno the table topics master, else i could ask him for a question ... i'm pretty sure he's dark skinned and his name's kasun karunatante (or sth like that; i've definitely spelt his first name right; but i've definitely spelt his surname wrong. XD)

-woah, sorry, shrieking! ><" anyways, when PIG mum tootled me off to see vincent the bloody physio for a torture session, era helped ela stretch for five minutes. of course, murphy's law: there wasn't a train crossing when we neared to turn out of warrigal road, and every bloody traffic light turned/stayed green when we approached it. *sigh* ><
-physio today: two attempts before staying seated, then just exercises for ela. Also bent down to pick swosh from the floor. Ela grabbed two lollies before leaving. :o)
-afterwards, PIG mum tootled me off to the calamvale chinese and BBQ restaurant for lunch, yay! i had the tomato and chicken rice; wonder why the chicken wasn't fried? it was, last time ... but i liked the onions that the chef boss dude added~

-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself (annette helped with my back and era), mostly creamed myself (again, annette helped with my back and era) and mostly rekitted myself (annette helped with my bra, some of erf's sock and elf's AFO). then i went over to the loo for two tinkles before annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my arvo toastie.
-wow, annette helped me make a double perfect toastie today! :D that's not only two cheese and mayo, but two ham also! that's SEVEN times this month already! :D
-with that, i also drank one mug of irish breakfast tea, white sweetened with one spoonful of honey 'incorrectly'.
-before annette massaged ela for about thirty-five minutes, she gave my shoulders a squeeze for about five minutes! "i did a massage therapy course once," she explained, before later adding, "you're very tight, you know.' yeah, sorry, i get kinda stressed out whenever i haveta walk, sorry. ><
-before annette left, she took me once more to the loo. she's attending some BBQ, now! although i don't really know how they can enjoy a BBQ with this kinda rain bucketing down ...
-as for me, hopefully i can tune into nine's 6pm news, which should start in just under fifteen minutes time.

-toms: just church, definitely nothing special. actually, the special thing's that i'll get morning tea for once, coz bible study won't be held @ the little house (thank god) but rather, downstairs in A2! meaning bible study, morning tea then i'll haul myself back upstairs for english service.
-fingers crossed i can have some lunch @ plaza afterwards, and that i'll have some visitors! also fingers crossed this stupid rain will cease by toms arvo, coz if i do get visitors, i wanna go out and have drinks with them @ sakuraya! only it'll be kinda hard to head out with the heavens bucketing down, hey ... anyways, hope to see everyone @ church toms!

-hilarious! little mickey pig rang me; first he mistook me for PIG mum (but everyone does; apparently, our voices are similar?) , he told me that 'twas raining in hong kong today. "really?" i responded. "you should come to brisbane, then. it's very hot and sunny here." his response had me laughing my head off: "em biu jie, why'd you steal the sun? where'd you put it?" when i finished laughing, i gave him his first astronomy lesson ever: "mickey, the sun's HUGE. hong kong and australia both share the same sun." XD
-after massaging ela for about one hour, tess took me once more to the loo for three tinkles.
-back @ the gobbling :P table, tess made me one mug of warm horlicks, my third to hold 'incorrectly'. then she went and cooked me some fried rice for lunch. :o)

good evening, and one final greeting for tonight! (yes, i usually try to post four times each day, but alas, horrid PIG mum has decided that if i use the loo once more tonight she won't lemme use it before i go to bed! ><) anyways, joni's devotional topic for tonight's 'eyes ... blind or open'? and em's final, final plodding total for saturday now stands @ 7122. yay, that's more than usual. :) only, expect a super-pissy plodding total toms (mayhaps not even 500), coz i'm staying @ home all day tomsa and not going out. but who knows, perhaps pedro will love me heaps and heaps and gimme several more steps. XD anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-when PIG mum awoke from pigland, she immediately and gleefully forced me offline.
-so i went and did a stinky unspeakable.
-but alas, dad hadn't returned home by the time i finished, meaning PIG mum gleefully forced me on several minutes of those wall exercises the guy from the STEPS luncheon taught us, then gleefully forced poor ela and era on 20+ minutes of hand exercises, then gleefully forced me to endure a painful fifteen minute standing calf stretch and finally finished with gleefully FORCING :( me to plod twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill.
-one more loo trip for me before dinner, of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything.
-and alas, dinner tonight was the yucky rice again, but PIG mum made delicious chicken with corn sauce! oh, there was also lotsa yummy beans and yummy wombok.
-dinner was only washed down with three spoonfuls of soup, before i returned online. see, i'm already busting to use the loo once more; i wasn't gonna add an entire bowl of soup to that! XD
-well, PIG mum's just finished plodding her own twenty minutes, bedtime for me's in about eight minutes.
-toms: sleep-in! :D tessa comes @ 10am; fingers crossed she lets me stay in bed till 10;40, that she feeds me lotsa breakfast, brings her iphone for me to play with and cooks me lunch!
-annette comes to watch me shower @ 4pm.
-and toms night, alfee and dr. dr. tai are coming over for dinner! meaning i'll prolly only get to post twice toms, not four times. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week!

-after dinner, i walked over to the other table, where alfee shared about how she brought her parents to know jesus. the hilarious thing was, the moment i stood up, she cried, "you've improved!" lol, i hadn't done anything yet, bar standing up, but thanks for the ego boost, alfee. XD
-alfee also gave us each one of those little promise cards! they've got a little character drawn on one side with the verse; on the other side, the verse gets repeated in english. when i asked her to please the canto for mine, she did, then said, "wait, i wanna give you another one too."
-afterwards, i returned to the dining table, where we all had one slice of thin, seedless watermelon and the same again of yummy orange.
-people started leaving; turns out vicky and kathy were driving me home!
-kathy walked behind me back to yari (her car's name XD); personally, i was rather grumpy that they'd already switched the escalators off, meaning i had to walk down it! ><
-lol, i asked kathy did she prefer me calling her 'middle chow' or 'medium chow', 'twas vicky who laughed and replied, "just call her mid chow." XD
-back home, i went once to the loo, and was just gonna return online when PIG mum demanded i go to bed! "it's not even 9:30pm yet!" i protested crankily. 'so?' she responded. "you're not 100% better yet. bed.' hmph, and i didn't even get any milk. ><
-today: i used the loo once around midnight, when PIG mum for some reason came downstairs. i told her i was really hot, and she kindly got a fan for me.
-thus i cuddled bear bear and we snored together. i used the pot :P once again when dearest dad left for work then bear bear and i returned to our happy snorings until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-when she came back, i used the pot :P once more for two tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when i felt like doing a stinky unspeakable.
-PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom and brush my teeth, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was two yummy weetbix with the thinnest and shortest stream of honey ever. i also had all my usual drugs and drank one tall mug of water 'incorrectly'.
-before leaving for vincent's place, i went and did my stinky unspeakable. of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but - bbl!
cheers,
em. ^^

-aunty a arrived first for dinner, but lee was so long in coming we started without him! XD
-i went to the loo once before dinner, which was two slices of home-made pizza plus lotsa some chinese vegetable. afterwards, i passed my plate to PIG mum and asked for a lil of tessa's fried rice, coz i'm a rice bucket and need rice for dinner. XD mum went over to the stove, then apologised, "sorry em, lee took the last." seeing lee was outside discussing sth with dad, i hissed @ PIG mum, "quick! grab me a teaspoon!" and i pilfered one teaspoon of rice from lee's plate. but i admitted my thievery of his rice when he came back inside. XD
-suddenly, i remembered that i'd forgotten to wish uncle fung happy birthday! i tried asking PIG mum please to pass me the phone, but she preferred to gleefully FORCE :( me to walk over to the couch for the phone.
-but i rang and sang the birthday song to uncle fung. :o) he's fifty, now! afterwards, i yakked briefly with aunty nga, before passing the phone onto PIG mum.
-then i took myself slowly and safely once more to the loo and back to the computer table, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-toms: just church, definitely nothing special. actually, the special thing can be that we're holding a baptism and @ night, SHINE fellowship's having dinner together @ parkland to celebrate kenix's baptism and alfee's birthday! righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

heylo again! em's new final plodding total for saturday now stands @ sth below 1689, coz tell me, how did i manage to plod 899 steps in the 2.5 hours since i last posted? XD anyways, continuing today's events?
-oh, joni's devotional topic's 'clothed in righteousness'.
-before tess left, she took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. she's off to jasmine's house now.
-i read the book club novel until PIG mum came downstairs from her shower and served me about 1/2 a bowl of tessa's yummy fried rice, plus lotsa icky bitter vegetable.
-just drinking water with that, i plopped online after lunch.
-then @ 2:45pm, leanne came! :D
-she walked behind me once to the loo where i managed fine by myself, then she walked behind me back to the gobbling :P table. i did pause @ the foot of the stairs to announce leanne's arrival to PIG mum, but she was obviously still too tired to come downstairs and say hi.
-so leanne and i just yakked away. :) she's doing lotsa flying nowadays - jetting back to brisbane every friday arvo before returning to mackay/elsewhere every monday morning!
-when she left, i walked her out before plopping back online briefly until annette came.
-she Forced me to walk to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - i washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, dried and creamed elf, got her sock and AFO on (well, annette did the AFO; i did the sock) and walked over to the loo, where i continued drying, creaming and rekitting myself.
-all done, annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my own arvo toastie - and she lemme make a perfect one! :D yay, that's FIVE times this month already! :D with that, i also drank one mug of irish breakfast tea, white sweetened with one spoonful of honey, 'incorrectly'.
-today, annette massaged ela for almost fifty minutes! while she did so, i read and PIG mum was yakking to annette about the finer details of pizza making. XD
-before she left, annette took me once more to the loo for one tinkle. she's back on tuesday, and we're going to toastmasters together!
-PIG mum's still creating pizza in the kitchen; dunno where dearest dad is/what he's doing.
-me, dunno if i'll return online tonight or not - depends whether aunty a and lee are interesting dinner guests. XD so maybe bbl, but if not, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
cheers,

saturday post 112

-awesome, third consecutive great sleep last night! :D nature didn't call until 6:25am, and after a pot :P trip i spent the ten minutes till 6:35am having a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him to please help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
~cuddling bear bear and returning to sleep with him, i woke briefly to kiss PIG mum goodbye when she left for work around 7:50am, then used the ten minutes till 8am continuing my mostly silent chat to percy the angel/saint, before cuddling bear bear and returning to happy snorings with him, waking twice more to use the pot :P before tess arrived.
-when she arrived, i rolled around in bed for thirty more minutes, finally getting myself up and over to the pot :P once more for three tinkles.  tess got me kitted, righting poor bear bear and daddy bear (dad likes to stand them on their heads every morning XD), then we walked over together to the bathroom where i brushed my teeth. thanks to tess who already prepared everything for me.
-after brushing teeth, i drank one small mug of water 'incorrectly' then went and did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning briefly against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel.
-afterwards, i went over to wash and dry era, before tess and i walked out to the gobbling :P table together.
-while tess prepared breakfast for me, i read fanfiction on her iphone - a harry potter and house MD crossover! XD
-thanks to dad who fried some ham and eggs; thanks to tess who added a slice of cheese for me. i also drank a mug of tea, white and two, 'incorrectly'.
-tess started massaging ela around 11:15am, while i was still eating. oh, she also fed me one slice of thick-cut raisin toast with some lemon jam, yummy! :)
-after i finished eating, i wrote nana a nice long letter. :)
-around midday, tess took me once to the loo for about three tinkles. back @ the gobbling :P table, i rang little mickey, who called me 'em biu jie', but when annie jie jie asked him who was he talking to, the small brat just answered, "emily." XD anyways, i asked him didn't he haveta attend math monkey, and he told me that it'd moved to 'jut yu chong' (say that in canto)!
-tess also made me a warm mug of horlicks, my third mug to enjoy while holding the mug 'incorrectly'.
-i also beat the eggs for tess, who then went to cook me some fried rice for lunch.
-hey, it's almost 2:30, meaning leanne should arrive soon, so fingers crossed i can bbl, else:
-aunty a's coming over for dinner tonight~
-toms: just church, nothing special.
-well, the special thing's that there's a baptism in the arvo, then @ night, SHINE fellowship will be having dinner together @ parklands to celebrate alfee's birthday and kenix's baptism!

-but dinner tonight was the yummy plain white rice, lotsa icky bitter vegetable, three slices of yummy beancurd and about the same of yummy chicken. dinner was spooned down with one bowl of very light coloured and rather icky soup, then i returned online. ><

-thus followed several forced minutes of those wall exercises that guy from the STEPS lunch had taught us, followed by ages of exercises of forced exercises for poor ela, followed by ages of forced stick exercises and finally culminating in fifteen minutes of a painful standing calf stretch.
-i took myself slowly and safely once to the loo, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over. alas, PIG mum ordered me back out before she'd finished boiling the vegetables, meaning i had to once again walk myself slowly and safely back to the computer, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-well, PIG mum says to finish watching the latest naruto chapter before i come over for dinner; that's what i'm going for now.
-fingers crossed i can bbl with my final, final plodding total for friday and events for toms later, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!

-yay, second consecutive awesome sleep last night! nature didn't call until 6:25am again, and after a pot :P trip i spent the ten minutes till 6:35am having a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him to please help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. cuddling bear bear and returning to sleep with him, i woke briefly to use the pot :P once more and kiss dearest dad goodbye when he left for work around 8:20am.
-more happy sleepings with bear bear followed until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes." when she came back, i swung myself to the loo for three more tinkles, PIG mum got me kitted, then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to brush my teeth (poor ela) before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was three yummy weetbix with the shortest and thinnest stream of honey ever, plus all my usual drugs. :P
-after breakfast, PIG mum demanded i go do a stinky unspeakable for her. me, being an obedient child, complied. XD but i also leant briefly against the side rail and continued my mostly chat to percy the angel/saint.
-that finished, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to ronnie jie jie's car. she drives a subaru, too!
-ronnie jie jie doesn't to any music in the car, but i'm just laughing coz PIG mum helped me with my seatbelt all day! i note that she didn't come over and help me buckle it until ronnie jie jie was inside the car herself and could see PIG mum doing it. XD
~once ronnie jie jie exited yvonne road, i closed both eyes and finished my mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel. opening both eyes somewhere along coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes, before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then left me with ronnie jie jie in the waiting room while she went back downstairs to pay.
-kat came for me today! turns out lauren had a bung arm/leg/back and had been sent to see the doctor!
-some student with a two-syllable name gave me physio today. i did a six minute walking test (I walked about 150m, an improvement on last year's test - only 66m!), @ least twenty sit-to-stands and cone work for ela.
-afterwards, we all went to the loo, then ronnie jie jie tootled mother and i off to see aunty anna for our haircuts!
-aunty anna cut my hair first, telling me that business had gone down slightly coz of the ten dollar haircuts now available @ warrigal square.
-when she cut PIG mum's hair, i browsed a new idea mag from one year back (october 2011)
-afterwards, ronnie jie jie tootled us off to sushi train for a late lunch!
-lol, when PIG mum was gleefully FORCING :( me to walk into sushi train, she saw kyoko leaving and told me; i yelled, "sayonara, kyoko-san!" and she stopped, turned around, laughed, waved and called back "ja mata!" XD
-well, i wanted my usual kaarage udon, but PIG mum refused coz my throat was still slightly phlegmy. >< instead, i chose a vegetable tempura udon, which was quite yummy - especially the sweet potato! PIG mum and ronnie jie jie both ate sushi, and we all drank green tea. i also rang dearest dad, who told me to tell PIG mum that she had to shout ronnie jie jie.
-actually, ronnie jie jie paid for our meal, but PIG mum insisted on paying her back once she got back into the car. XD
-back home, ronnie jie jie said bye, and i used the loo once before plopping online.
-aunty lucia arrived shortly after 4pm today, and Forced me to walk into the bathroom for my nice hot shower - i washed my own hair today, but thanks to aunty lucia who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before aunty lucia flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, had another tinkle, then got creamed. aunty lucia spread aloe vera over my face, back and legs, and i had another tinkle. when she rekitted me, i had one last tinkle when she was repinning pedro onto my pants.
-aunty lucia Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table, where i enjoyed the second half of my yummy chicken puff bun. sadly, PIG mum would only lemme drink water with that, but i held it as the cup for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-before she left, aunty lucia took me once more to the loo. and ew, she's having chicken wings in black bean sauce for dinner tonight! *pukes* XD
-when she left, i returned online. PIG mum came over to de-footwear elf before going upstairs into pigland. dad's outside working in the garage.
-as for me, i'm off to get my naruto fix now! :D fingers crossed i can bbl, else hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,

friday post 112

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding sth prolly slightly less than 4010 steps today (but i can say i'm just over four grand, hoorah! XD); secondly, TWFT topic's 'growing-and blessing others'; thirdly, the spam count for the week's forty-seven but forthly and most importantly, i'm still owed ONE HOUR and NINETEEN MINUTES online after aunty lucia leaves later!!! righteo, let's start off with last night's events first!
~annette arrived one minute late today (argh >< ), helped me with a quick shower (meaning i still basically do everything by myself; she just helps me a little with my footwear) then we hit garbo!
-thankfully, there was a car park waiting downstairs for us; i held hands with annette and walked up to the library with her.
-and, joy of joys - the very first book, ender's game, was available! :D
-i happily read that until 6:30, but was rather disgusted with myself that i took like eighty minutes just to silently read seventy-five pages, argh. ><
-at 6:30pm, annette and rachel came back for me, annette took me once more to the loo then we got dinner.
-and yay, anna was waiting @ KFC for me. :)
-also, sometime in the last fortnight, KFC must've changed their menu! coz the two piece feed has now become a two piece BOX! XD the other happy thing was that the mint choc krusher has come back! :D i didn't know until anna ordered one, actually~
-annette ans anna had chinese, while rach had maccas. the poor girl, she's getting braces today! i introduced her to tofu. XD
-after dinner, rach rocked off to do her own stuff; annette just said to meet @ maccas by 9pm.
-first stop was woolies, where i picked up a jar of nutella for cass. just a lil jar, though, coz the huge jar was like, seven/nine bucks!
-breadtop was next; i picked up a yummy chicken puff for my breakfast toms, a yummy sausage donut for my arvo tea toms, and acustard and almond bun for dearest dad (PIG mum doesn't like breadtop, coz she reckons they're too oily).
-annette took me once more to the loo, then we went all the way down to jayjays! sadly, there weren't any cool tees for sale; even the mickey mouse with glasses tee has gone. :(
-back up @ maccas, i was about to buy a soft serve, only for the guy @ the counter to say that they'd already closed! >< but i was prepared for any circumstance: "to the twenty-four hour maccas @ warrigal square, then!" i ordered annette. XD
-so one yummy soft serve for me before annette drove me back home.
-i go to kiss dearest dad goodnight before PIG mum boots me off to bed. zzz~
-hey, aunty lucia's just arrived, so fingers crossed i can bbl, else:
-expect a super-pissy plodding total, perhaps not even 500 steps (unless pedro loves me heaps XD) coz i'm not going out; tessa's coming for three hours @ 10am then annette to watch me shower @ 4pm. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i've prolly plodded less than what pedro's generously given me coz last night, he'd said i'd already plodded 900 steps, but usually, i only plod like 500 when i go out to garbo! XD

-cuddling bear bear ands returning to sleep with him, i woke briefly to kiss dearest dad goodbye and use the pot :P once more when he left for work around 8:20am.

-she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk inside, and that nice lady who chatted with me last time got PIG mum and i each half a cup of water.
-when lei came out, he held ela and walked me in, saying in very precise canto, 'fong song (english: relax)! he's chinese, remember!
-so, one comfy massage for me~ PIG mum was pro, conversing freely with master tickle ('lei' is chinese for tickle!) in chinese!
-afterwards, aunty anne gave PIG mum two bags of tomatoes! PIG mum says she's gonna make pizza~
-next, PIG mum drove me out for acupuncture, taking me to the loo once when we arrived.
-but dr. lin fried poor ell with that electrical machine, and stupid ela didn't know how to relax - today, acupuncture HURT! ><
-all was better afterwards, coz PIG mum drove us to little singapore for lunch!
-we shared some combination egg noodle thing, two bowls each. PIG mum drank a sesame milk tea (but couldn't taste any tea flavour), while i enjoyed a chocolate milk tea. i also rang dearest dad~
-back home, i went and did a stinky unspeakable before returning online.
-i've also taken myself twice more slowly and safely to the loo, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-now, i have like thirty minutes for myself for some reading, before annette takes me out to garbo tonight! :D
-toms: ronnie jie jies driving PIG mum and i to UQ! but afterwards, we've both got haircuts ... wonder if i can see naz for some lunch after that?

-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and tootled me off to see vincent the bloody physio. of course, she gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to anthony callea's 'a new chapter' all day, too.

tuesday post 110c

good evening! em's new final plodding total for tuesday now stands @ 4081. sweet, i'm just over four grand. :) righteo, continuing today's events?
-PIG mum tootled us home. i went and did a stinky unspeakable before plopping online.
~when annette arrived just before 4pm, PIG mum and her had a long yak (for about the next fifteen minutes) before she finally Forced me to walk to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - i washed and rinsed my own hair today.
-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, then, coz annette had said i wasn't allowed to tinkle in the shower chair any more, i dried and creamed elf, put her sock on. annette fitted the AFO, then i walked over to the loo before sitting down and continuing to dry, cream and rekit myself.
-in the end, all done, annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my arvo tea - and she lemme make the perfect arvo toastie! :D and not only double cheese, but double ham and mayo too! that's FOUR times this month already! :D
-with that, i also drank one mug of irish breakfast tea, sweetened with one spoonful of honey, 'incorrectly'.
-just after 4:25pm, annette came and massaged ela, while i happily read away.
-at 5;55pm, annette took me once more to the loo, where i managed fine by myself. i think annette said she was having mash for dinner tonight, and she's coming back on thursday and taking me to garbo, yay!
-i returned online briefly, until PIG mum decided to gleefully boot me offline and gleefully force me on more stupid exercises. ><
-first was several minutes of the wall exercises that guy from the STEPS luncheon taught us, then ages more of exercises for poor ela and era, finally culminating in a painful standing calf stretch for fifteen minutes.
-one toilet trip for me before dinner. argh, have i already bitched about how the UQ physio put a wedge under my left shoe, making it uneven for me when i walk? >< it's already hard enough for me when i'm trying to walk with two even feet, let alone one that's now not even! ><
-i had the second half of the delicious ho fan that i had for lunch today, plus lotsa two different vegies (cos lettuce and some asian one). dinner was spooned down with one rather disgusting bowl of soup (PIG mum had added some icky bitter herbs into it) before i returned online.
-well, i'm needing the loo once more @ 9pm; fingers crossed i can bbl with my final, final plodding total and what's happening toms afterwards.
cheers,
em. ^^

tuesday post 110

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 3076 (lol, i'm just over three grand XD) steps today; secondly, TWFT topic's 'are you drifting off course?' but thirdly and most importantly, i'm still owed FIFTY-SEVEN MINUTES online after annette leaves here @ 6pm!!! righteo, events for today?
~yay, awesome sleep last night! that helped me clear out the remnants of that pesky cold~ nature didn't call till like 6:25am, and after a pot :P trip i cuddled bear bear and successfully fell back asleep with him until dearest dad left for work and came to kiss me good-bye. afterwards, more happy sleepings followed with bear bear, until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-when PIG mum came back, bear bear grumbled @ her, 'gee whiz, why couldn't you have just sat over the loo 2.5 minutes longer? that way, em and i would've had THIRTY minutes extra sleeping time!" PIG mum just sniped back, "i wasn't sitting over the loo; i was tending my vegie patch." but she helped bear bear have a morning wakeup stretch, so he's all happy again." XD
-after i used the pot :P once more for three more tinkles, PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to the bathroom and brush my teeth, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was three yummy weetbix with the shortest and thinnest streak of honey ever, all the usual drugs :P and one tall mug of water.
-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD, and tootled me off to UQ for physio. we listened to anthony callea's 'a new chapter' all day and of course, PIG mum gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, too. but once she left the driveway, i closed both eyes and had  a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him to please help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through the day, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. opening both eyes somewhere along coronation drive, era helps ela to stretch for five minutes, before she opens and closes her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then left me with that brain injury mag.
-lauren came for me with a walkbelt. she Forced me to walk two laps along the hallway with her, i used the loo once, then walked another two laps with her before finally entering the gym.
-the rest of the session ... work for ela, a standing calf stretch and karen used me as a guinea pig to teach the students about tone.
-afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then she tootled me off to dong fong/sunnybank oriental for lunch after hearing me admit my craving for ho fan in egg sauce!
-that's what i got, while PIG mum got the 'A' meal, Portuguese chicken rice. we shared the drink, a cold horlicks. during lunch, PIG mum told me to whatsapp christy jie; i contacted pole also.
-time to leave, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk back to the 4WD and she tootled us off to the warrigal square woolies, where she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk around the store, buying milk and sth else.
-hey, annette's here now, so fingers crossed i can bbl, else:
-mid-morning torture session with vincent the bloody physio. ><
-aunty wendy comes to mind me for three hours from 11:30am; i presume PIG mum's going shopping.
-carol comes to watch me shower @ 4pm.
-and best of all, it's ice-cream night toms night! :D
cheers,
em. ^^
