tuesday post11

yo! so, i plodded around 3196 steps today. looking good, so far!
well, i know dear dad kissed both i and daddy bear this morning. then i just slept till mum dug me up. i did an unspeakable :P then mum got me dressed, and she FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling table :P mum was getting my bowl of just wrong :P ready, when ding dong! aunty anne arrived. so we chatted awhile, b4 mum FORCED :( me to walk out to the car. aunty anne kindly drove us again, and even gave me permission to my westlife CD. unbreakable volume 2, i think it was. once at the PA, she dropped mum and i off and went to park our car. so mum FORCED :( me to walk in, where i made a beeline for the nearest chairs. we rested awhile, then, as i needed the bathroom, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the toilet. a quick pee later, she FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my hands. aunty anne met us there, then mum FORCED :( me to walk to the physio gym. and i was happy - i saw pole! :) she was pushing a wheelchair, which led me to inquire rather cheekily,"pole, a lift for me? how nice!" well, that got a laugh out of her, anyways. so i made my way into the gym, plopped my bum on achair, and waited for tricia to arrive. turns out tricia's last name is 'sinnamon', so, like that spice but with an 's' not a 'c'. mum and aunty anne went a-wandering, and when tricia came, we started with some walking along the parallel bars - forwards, backwards, and even sideways!i admit, i'm not too good with the forwards and backwards walking, but the sideways? downright ABYSMAL, i admit. >< we also took a stroll outside to get our daily dose of vitamin D, but a complaint here - the moment we stepped out, what happened? the sun DISSAPEERED. hmph, and i bet it came bck out the moment we strolled backinside, too! hmph. bah! then, tricia sat me down at the arm bike, and got me to do some left arm exercises. i think she told me 1C is the surgical ward, and 3C is the cardio vascular. i was in 2C, the neuro ward. joe came along, and set up the arm bike, aka the 'rehab trainer' for me. tricia bandaged up my left hand, then i gave a crack at it, although my silly left hand fingers were still pinching a fair bit. midday, she called it a day, and walked me back out to the chairs to wait for mum and aunty anne's return. she gave me permission to yell a bye, to pole first. such a nice lady. ^^so, mum and aunty anne arrived to pick me up. we said our byes, thanks, and see you next weeks to tricia, then mum FORCED :( me to walk back out to the car, me grabbing a chance to sit down and rest my tired legs/sore ankle wherever possible. aunty anne drove us home, and i rang dear dad, but i forgot where he was, sorry. i told him aunty melody was coming over, bringing lunch, and accompanying us to the splint-making place. i guessed she would bring pork chop rice, mum guessed chook chop :P( that's GOTTA be an incorrect name! haha :P), and aunty anne guessed beef chop. so dad guessed salads. we got home. mum FORCED :( me to walk back inside, and we invited aunty anne to stay with us for lunch. ding dong! aunty melody arrived promptly, and mumwas right! oops, dinnertime! bbl~ time is now 7:41pm.
hello! it's 7:53 pm now, meaning i sure gobbled my dinner down fast! rice tonight, with some wombok, some yummy fish - mum said aunty anne taught her that fish was brain food - two little pieces of charsiu, and an even smaller piece of bbq pork. the charsiu i saved for second last, the BBQ pork last. anyways, i washed it all down with a cup of HEAVILY watered down pear juice. still yummy! so, then mum helped me undo the knot of the cool new blue apron aunty anne gave me, and i tootled back online, after shifting my bum back to the right, as mum ordered. ok, so back to where i was: so, she'd brought us chicken subway with honey mustard, and chicken chop rice! we shared, although we all gave mum bits of the salad in the subway we don't like, and aunty melody traded mum some other parts she didn't like. i washed mine down with a cup of chocolate nesquik, they with tea, and i also enjoyed shovelling mouthfuls of the chicken chop rice into my mouth. all gobbled up, it was almost time to head off, so as aunty anne and aunty melody washed up, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the bathroom for a pee. she then FORCED :( me to walk over and wash my hand, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk to the car. we said our byes and thanks to aunty anne as she and aunty melody came out, then mum and aunty melody climbed in too and we tootled off, mum driving, mum driving, aunty melody as navigator, and just me as the bum sitting in the death seat :P when we got there, mum FORCED :( me to walk in, where i took a seat with a gossip mag. when it was my turn, mum FORCED :( me to walk in, and the guy that looked after us was called rod. mum showed him my dud splint and got me to stand up to show him how my silly left ankle rolled out whenever i had to stand. he took some measurements, then casted my leg. even better - he nicely let me sign my cast when he took it off! he's from SA, and told me all south australian males are born with two heads, but he had his 2nd one removed when he moved to qld. me:"so where did you put it?" him, "in the freezer." me" do you ever open the freezer and have a look at it?" him "nah. coz then it looks at me too." he also told me that all south australian males are born with 2 extra toes as well, but unlike his extra head, he didn't have them removed. lol :P
i told him that if possible, i wanted a dark blue cast - my favourite colour. so he got a book out of all these templates, and after discussing it with mum, i chose a blue one with tornadoes on it. hope it'll turn out good!
so, time to go, we said our bye and thanks to rod, then mum put my socks, old splint and shoes back on, then she FORCED :( me to walk outside to the car, rod kindly opening the door for us on our way out. we tootled home. mum gave kerry a ring - turns out the silly woman had rocked up, found no-one present, and rocked home! lol ... so we got home, mum FORCED :( to walk back inside, and we said our thanks and byes to aunty melody. actually, i asked her for her email address, but she said mum already had it and to ask her. oh well. i do it toms, i guess. ding dong! kerry quickly arrived - she lives very close to us - in the same suburb, at least - and gave me a shower first, no hairwash today. i went for an unspeakable :P afterwards, then she got me redressed in socks - she doesn't like the black tet ones - too tight and no toe holes at the end - old splint and shoes. transferred back to sparky, i tootled over to be fed a very yummy arvo tea of a honey ham and toasted cheese sandwhich - actually, i can't taste the difference between honey smoked and normal- and a cup of hot nesquik. i read for awhile, b4 she banished me to go practise piano. i did until just b4 news. tootling over, i whinged that i was starving to kerry :P so she fed me a cracker and a sugar/fat/one of those, anyway free lolly. she had one herself too. after the news, kerry took me to the bathroom for an unspeakable once more :P then i came back, signed the sheet for her, and saw her out the door. poor woman, she has a 6:30am job toms!oh well, as long as she doesn't come wake me up :P i closed and locked the door afterwards, and when mum came back in from getting the washing, asked her to please turn on thenet for me.
anyways, no plans toms, except that aunty yvonne is coming on thurs. dunno what i'll be doing toms - though, knowing mum, she'll prolly be forcing - not worth putting in caps - me to do some OT exercises. oh well.
anyways, me going for the news then the episode of naruto i missed on sunday while i was at camp. it should be ursuila toms. ok, bye!
cheers,
em. ^^
