monday post 111

good evening! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 549 steps today (nothing, i know; i'll explain why later); secondly, TWFT topic's 'make the most of it' and thirdly, joni's devotional topic's 'the shiny, sharp tool'. righteo, events for today?
~i used the pot :P once last night, once more this morning and once more when dearest dad left for work. PIG mum came in, asked, "how are you feeling?" to which i confessed i was still feeling pretty shoddy, like, pounding head, searing throat, general weakness in body. PIG mum comes and peers @ me, agrees, then orders, 'sleep. i'll cancel your appointment with vincent the physio today."
-and so i sleep. PIG mum comes in with mugs of water which i obediently drink, also some drugs.
-when dad comes home for lunch, i use the pot :P again, and when PIG mum comes in to check on me again, and i confess that my stupid head's still banging away. so PIG mum orders that i take panadol. argh, panadol twice in two consecutive days; i feel like such a druggie. ><
-but it helps, coz i fall asleep after dad returns to work, and i don't wake till almost 4pm. :o)
-PIG mum's left the door open, so when carol arrives, she doesn't need to ring the doorbell, and just calls, 'hello!" i croak back, 'is that you, carol?" and then i yell, 'mum! carol's here!" carol replies back, "what's wrong with your voice?" i sadly answer. "i'm sick. got the flu. been in bed all day."
-when PIG mum lets her in, she transfers me over to the showerchair, rolls me over to the bathroom then demand i switch to the wheeless one.
-when carol comes into the bathroom, i turn the nice hot water on, also washing and rinsing my own hair today.
-i have one tinkle before i turn the nice hot water off, mostly dry myself (carol helps with my back and era), have another tinkle, and mostly cream myself (again,carol helps with my back and era). i rekit my top half, carol rekits my bottom half, and i have one final tinkle when carol's repinning pedro back onto my pants.
-carol Forced me to walk back out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea. huge thanks to PIG mum who made me one can of campbells cream of chicken soup and let carol toast one slice of bread butter it slightly for me. carol did ask me if i wanted her to butter the toast for me or not, but ehm (em's hungry mouth XD) and era did that fine by themselves.
-after having a long yak with PIG mum and going to clean the bathroom, carol massaged ela for about thirty minutes, painting her chicken soup colour  with toast colour dots today.
-at 5:55pm, carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. she's back on wednesday, and will be having chips and a runny fried egg for dinner tonight, yummy!
-well, it's about 7:15pm; hopefully dearest dad'll be home soon. :)
-feeling like i wanna do a stinky unspeakable before dinner, though.
-fingers crossed i can bbl, else:
-late morning UQ physio with lauren toms. fingers crossed i can have some yummy lunch @ the sushi train/sunnybank oriental afterwards!
-then it's annette coming to watch me shower toms arvo. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing day toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
