saturday post4

yo!, ok, i plodded 3880 steps today. yeah - me passed 3 grand today!
so, half my prayers were answered today - uncle wallace didn't turn up for OT, yay!meaning i slept all the way till mum came back from work. i got up, went to the loo, then mum forced me to walk outside to the gobbling table:P where my brunch was some of that chicken pasta with tomatoes , carrots and chicken. then mum hit the bed for some pig time :P and vincent the physio rang and said he would be late. actually, kerry came first and did some hand exercises with me first (ie grapey squeeze ball, opening and closing the left hand, etc.) vincent came eventually, so first and only session for me today:PT. we walked 3 rounds mostly. but i gotta tell you - his offer almost beats aunty a's! i mean, she's said if i can walk by myself within a year, she'll shout both dad and i to a broncos match, but vincent the physio ... if i walk again, it'll be a whole day of eating! he's said: maccas breakfast, dumplings and shallot pancake for lunch, and peking duck for dinner! lol, my tummy is yelling hungriness already :P
so, after he left, kerry gave me a shower - no hair wash today-, then put me back in my uggies for awhile. arvo tea was a pear - i saved her the last slice - a toasted cheese sandwhich and a cup of hot tea. with a tablespoon of honey. beautiful :) we did some more hand exercises, and went to practise piano a bit. mum came down and made me do more left hand, so i didn't get to play my 2nd page of songs today. >< oh well, i guess if she makes me do it toms, i could always start from the second page. then a quick trip to the loo b4 news time!after the sports news, mum made me pedal bike - she now owes 13000 rotations - then even made me do arm bike. oh well. but i thought it a bit unfair - usually i only have to do 500 rotations, not 690! ah well, my life sucks. get the hell used to it! while my arms where having a go, she signed the sheet for kerry and we said our thanks and bye. back in sparky, i had the last of the pasta for dinner - mum promises to use spam ham next time!- and a cup of pear juice, b4 trundling over to the net. ok, i should have been on the net the proper time by about 9:30pm. i'm just gonna go send a quick email to pole. hope to see most of yous at church toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
p.s. oops. almost forgot to tell you what happened last night at UF! speaker was shane mccarthy - i laughed at him, saying my cane could beat his crutches :P hailey took worship, and i think? janice played piano. or christy. then shane took over and gave us all 10 pieces of paper, saying we had to write the ten most important things to us. mine were:
1. mum
2. dad (then i wrote"i love him the most!")
3. grandma
4. bear bear
5. giant
6. my ability to walk (or hobble)
7. music
8. food (followed by an "i'm ALWAYS hungry!^^")
9. the books i love to read
10. anime and manga
then shane told us a story about how we came under attack and lost things one by one. lol, at one point he added that the evil new south welshman decided to capitalise on our misfortune and plundered us too >< at that pointe, i wailed out to him, "oh come on, shane, you're leaving me DESTITUTE!" except the evil man only laughed, then how cool is this? uncle PHILLIP, took a last stand! we could join him, so in the end, i escaped with only my beloved dad with me. i hope mum and grandma don't mind! we then split up for group time. dora was at some RICE thing again, so janice took it this time. she and pole helped me to hobble in, and afterwards, there was even supper! so i got: one tim tam, one of my favourite lemon bikkies, a cup of aloe vera drink and an egg roll. but thanks to pole who got me a cup of water after i realised my egg roll contained traces of nuts in it >< luckily, no swollen lips this time! phew. pole then helped me to walk back out to my car, where mum, dad and the car were waiting. i said thanks and bye, promising to send hr an email regarding our parent's 25th wedding anniversary, and we tootled home. parents forced me to walk in once we got home; mum gave me a pocky and a glass of milk, i brushed my teeth, peed and hit the bed. nite!
