yo! so, i have been forced to plod only 145 steps today, but mum has threatened/promised that there will be more later, and no doubt dolly will force me walking as well instead of giving me sparky back. oh well *sigh* nothing to be said about, really. but b4 i start blabbing on about my day, a note of complaint first. you know how, at night, i drink my milk, then mum FORCES :( me to walk from there, usually aroundabouts the fridge? well, for some reason, last night she decided to FORCE :( me walking from where i was at the time, say, near the computer. well, dunno what happened last night, but for some reason mum FORCED :( me to start walking from where i was, i.e. AT THE COMPUTER. dunno. anyways, once there, she forced me to stand and wouldn't let me sit - so if my weight appears to be more on the right side then the left? well, tough. anyways, she then forced my left hand to hold the teethbrush while she forced my right hand to squeeze out the teethpaste :P oh, and she also forces my left hand to hold the cup for the initial pre-brush rinse and the 3 after-brushing rinses, before my poor right hand gets a go. like i've said, i've said bye to sparky and sparkless already, so i sadly no longer have the right to ask for them anymore, meaning mum is happy that she gets to FORCE :( me to walk the few steps over to wash and dry my right hand, then mum can FORCE :( me to walk back to the bed. but in that case, i promise to keep asking for a chair to sit on and brush my teeth. anyways, let's get started on this day ...
well, mum got up early to go to work, and she forced me to sit on the showerchair and bedpot :P once first. so i obligingly had a tinkle, then mum whipped my pull-up pants off and switched me back to knickers, b4 plopping me back with daddy bear for a snore as she tootled off to work. of course, i remembered to send a prayer up to percy the angel to please keep my pig mum safe b4 i joined daddy bear in snoring.
i called dad once to use the pot :P then dad came in to dig me up at what i thought was a ridiculously early time. so i said, "go away ... 60 more mins :P" but he said, "no. only 5, coz i need to go vaccuum." but when he switched that noisy contraption on, i counted almost 10mins before he forced me to get up, so oh well.
anyways, when dad did come to drag me up, he kindly helped me and slapped my socks, splint and shoes on. unfortunately, he also then had a tirade at me about what a USELESS :( person i was, an absolute piece of RUBBISH to society. he also had a go at me, saying i'd never learn how to walk again b4 my most beloved grandma passed away from old age, meaning i'd never go back to HK again coz i wouldn't be able to walk. but oh, i am determined. anyways, all kitted up, he stuck my pedometer to me then FORCED :( me to walk out. i thought it was to the gobbling table :P for some late breakfast, but no. it was to the walking frame, where he plopped me into a chair, put my left arm into the therabands, and forced me to pull it down 200x. then he forced my right hand to go in too, and forced me to pull it down another 50x. when mum came home, she forced me to demonstrate it for her, so in all total i had to pull it down 254x. dad also forced me to kick my left leg just once, and my left palm to open and close 21x. but he did very kindly put on westlife's turnaround tour for me to listen to. anyways, lunch time! mum FORCED :( me to walk to the table, forced me to grab a container, forced me to fill it up with water then forced me to spit my mouth splint out into it. then she FORCED :( me to walk to the fridge, forced me to open the door, forced me to grab the milk, forced me to shut the door, then FORCED :( me to walk back to the benchtop. there, she forced me to uncap the milk, forced me to pour myself a full glass, forced me to re-cap the lid, then FORCED :( me to walk back to the fridge, where she forced me to open the fridge door, forced me to place the milk back inside, and forced me to close the door. finally, she FORCED :( me to walk back to the table, and called lunch to dear dad. rice today, with some vegies, and a lovely litle piece of egg and ham that was meant to be my breakfast but never came. prolly not worth mentioning, it must be a given by now, but mum also forced my left hand to hold onto the bowl while i gobbled. all that, i washed down with a plain glass of milk. then, i kissed goodbye to my dearest daddy, who's going to uncle ching's to work. mum gave me my 'might and power' horse autobiography to read for half an hour, then i tootled online at 2pm. well, actually, mum FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky b4 i tootled online.
anyways, it's already past 3pm but dolly's still not here yet, so i guess she'll be rocking up at half past 3 today. as for me, i think i'll go watch the episode of naruto i missed out on thurs, and be back on later tonight to blab about the rest of my day/night. cya!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. time is now ... 3:08pm.

friday post
hi! so, i plodded 2214 steps today, give or take. to be honest, i can't remember whether or not mum forced me to do her long range of exercises last night; my guess though, is prolly yes. i do plead for some time off one night a week; i've tried for sunday b4, you now, "thou shalt keep the sabbath holy" and all that? but usually mum just snaps "no" then forces me to do a long range of arm, leg and head exercises. her justification? "you already had friday off, coz of UF."fair enough. what more can i say? my life sucks. get the hell used to it. *sigh*anyways, where was i?
oh. daddy bear and i were happy snorers this morning, coz first dad came in and said, "10 more mins. then time to get up." then mum came in a few mins later and repeated the same thing!so i had my 10mins, then mum dug me up and got me kitted.again, i admit, i can't remember what she kindly helped me with and what she forced me to do, but after all that was finished, mum slapped my pedometer on and FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling table. :P i bid a good morning to my dearest daddy, and thanks to pig mum who slapped down breakkie for me - a glass of plain milk, and a slice of toast with a bit of jam. today is an orange apron day though, i think. anyways, all gobbled up, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car, where off to the PA we tootled, listening to westlife. once we got there, mum FORCED :( me to walk in. actually, we saw another aussie guy there, who wallks with a cane also; i forgot his name, but he says he remembers me zipping around in sparky! oh, and he had a stroke. anyways, mum FORCED :( me to walk into the loo, where i had a long tinkle. then, she FORCED :( me to go and wash & dry my right hand, before she FORCED :( me to walk into the day hospital. i bid a happy hello to habib; it's just too bad he didn't come wandering around with morning tea!also, i was very happy to see tricia with shelley, who's using a walker! mrs. mouse soon happened along to asess (i've got no idea where there are single 's's' or double s's', sorry) my wonky left leg and arm. she whipped my left shoe, splint and sock off, and dragged me a-walking to a nearby bed. much thanks to pig mum who trod on my wonky left foot to stop it being ouchied. so, i flopped on the bed, and mrs. mouse examined my wonky left side, discussing it with 2 physio students, whose names i've forgotten, sorry. jayne popped along as well; which reminds me, i've gotta keep pestering her about how she owes me a physio session. i WILL persevere, i promise. anyways, at the end, i think they decided no more botox on my left leg - just let it keep wobbling - but that i'll need a botox shot on my arm. >< i wonder if janelle will come armed with a wet cloth again? so, we said our thanks and byes to the physios, and mum took over and FORCED :( me to walk out. well, actually, to the bathroom. after, she FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then she FORCED :( me to walk all the way back to the car. we tootled home, again listening to westlife. mum FORCED :( me to walk inside once we got there, i rang dearest dad, but forgot where he was now, sorry. so, i watched the morning news, both 9's and 7's. aunty vicky popped along to say hi, then, at midday, dolly popped over and mum rocked off to her lunch date with kim amos at garbo. actually, silly pig mum forgot and turned on the alarm! >< luckily, i heard it beeping and so SHRIEKED at her to turn it off. :P anyways, dolly forced me to walk to the shower chair, i mean, i have no idea why she didn't just bring the showerchair over and transfer me into it. oh well ... shower today, plus a hairwash. i went for a tinkle after, then dolly got me rekitted in everything. she reluctantly trandferred me back to sparky, only so i could show her where the phone was. see, while she was giving me a shower, the phone rang and i couldn't tell her where it was in time for her to pick it up. so, after i showed her where it was and what to press, she immediately switched me back to a chair and moved sparky far far away, b4 heating my lunch for me. one of mccain's healthy choice ones, the chicken fettucine in a tomato sauce with beans and red capsicums. to be honest, i think i got more of that red sauce into my tissue rather than my mouth! :P anyways, her own lunch was a nutella sandwhich, therefore, not for me. actually, she tells me that her WHOLE family is vegetarian, that the closest relative of hers that eats meat is a first cousin. oh, and thanks to dolly who also made me a chocolate nesquik. i read my might and power book for awhile, b4 dolly grabbed me for a good 20-30 mins of hand exercises. theraplaydough :P squeezy grapey breast nipple ball :P etc etc etc. then, i needed to pee again, so she forced me to walk in there, forced me to walk the few steps over to wash my right hand, and forced me to walk back out, where i made a beeline for sparky. she protested, but i told her, "you promised. after exercises, you said."so she kindly chopped me up a pear into lotsa little bits; i ate that with a fork, and greedy pig mum came to steal a piece too. dolly declined a chunk, but she says that she DOES eat them. oh, and apparently? tomatoes in india are ORANGE lol. :P anyways, i then went to practise piano, mostly left hand, b4 mum signed dolly off and we sdaid our thanks and byes. apparently, she'll come again toms, from 3-7pm. she also tells me that she's only got a lecture on tonight, and that the refect there makes BEAUTIFUL potato wedges!lol, i wonder how i can get my hands on some ...:Pi needed to pee afterwards, so pig mum FORCED :( me to walk in, and forced me to pull my own daks down. i sat down for a tinkle, only to have mum remark, "gee em, but you STINK." so i gave her a messy stinky number two. all done, pig mum helped me wipe, then forced me to pull my own daks up. then, she FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, and then she FORCED :( me to walk all the way back to sparky, which, trust her, she had SNEAKILY moved back far, far away, to about the piano. sorry, itchy left eye. >< i tootled online, and mum hit pig land.
anyways, i'm off to send my physios my weekly report, then to catch an episode of naruto, then to read some news, or sth. dunno when pig mum will wake up, but i hope it's soon! i want some arvo tea!
cheers,
em. ^!!^

anyways, time to get going, i went to the loo once - and yes, mum forced me to pull my own daks up and down - then she FORCED :( me to walk the few steps to wash my right hand, before she FORCED :( me to walk to ursula's car. then, off to vincent the physio's we tootled. ursula helped me to walk in once we got there, and vincent the physio got me to walk in the rest of the way. he delivered a comfy - but ouchie >< massage. left leg wins the most ouchie prize of the day, with the neck and the left hand coming in at a close second and third. massage over, he walked me back out to ursula, who helped me walk back out to her car. we tootled home. ursula's boyfriend is some mega dark/ well, let's just say BLACK :P man, from some faraway country, with some long, unpronounceable name - so he just uses 'clinton' - and he will be visiting her this xmas. mum met us at the door, FORCED :( me to walk into the bathroom, where she forced me to pull my daks down. back upright, she forced me to pull my daks up, FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk all the way to the sofa, where we watched 7's 6pm news. thanks to pig mum/ursula who fed a hungry em a glass of water and 3 crackers. at 6:30, mum said she'd sign the sheet for ursula and let her go early. then she FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky, where i came to the kitchen to help make dumplings. i made 10, but for some reason, mum only let me eat 7. oh well. how it was done: mum forced me to pick up a dumpling skin, and forced me to place it into my left hand. she then forced me to spoon some mincemeat into the skin, forced me to dab round it with water, then forced my left hand to fold it up. dear dad came home, and we soon sat down for dinner. have i already said? today is an orange apron day. thanks to dad who poured me a cup of yummy - but unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. then, thanks to mum who untied the knot to my apron so i could tootle back online.
anyways, dad is talking to uncle colbert on the phone right now. no idea what pig mum is doing, my guess would be watching TV coz i can't hear any sound coming from her. anyways, me off to read some news then calling it a day. mum says it's too late to watch naruto, oh well, i'll do it toms night after dolly leaves. enjoy the end of the week, all!

wednesday post
hi! ok, i have plodded 2694 steps so far, but i think there will be more to come later tonight after vincent the physio drags me a-walking. ah well, nothing really to be done; just grit your teeth through the ouchies.
so, em snored happily in bed this morning. daddy bear snored louder :P right next to me, content that he (along with me, of course! sheesh :P) had gotten a goobye kiss from dearest dad this morning. so, mum dug me up. to be honest, i can't remember what she helped me to do and what she forced me to do myself, but i had a tinkle in the pot :P oh dear, but while my mum has forced my left hand to hold onto harry, i've lost lily! *wails*
anyways, me all presentable for the day, mum clipped my pedometer onto me, and then FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she forced me to get a plastic container, forced me to fill it up[ with water, and forced me to spit out my mouth splint into it. oh, and i'm just back from the sport's news - telstra shares are up 5c! they're at $4.03! and my dearest daddy just came home :)so he came in and gave me a kiss. oh, and i'm being summoned to dinner now, so bbl! time is now ... 6:29pm.
*burp* i'm back! :P time is now 6:44 pm, and dinner has been gobbled. but what a surprise! coz no rice tonight! just pasta in carrot, tomato and potato soup, and a little bit of chicken and a little bit of yummy spam ham. but sadly, there was no pear juice tonight, coz i've finished the previous can and pig mum needs dad to open the new can for her! um, to be honest, i'm not sure why pig mum is incapable of using a can opener, but yeah :P so thanks to her anyways for pouring me half a cup of water. so, where was i?
then mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the gobbling table :P where i was only fed a glass of milk as she went to hang up the washing. time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the loo, as i needed a tinkle. prolly not worth mentioning, but she forced me to pull my daks down and pull them up afterwards, too. then she FORCED :( me to walk the few steps over to wash my right hand, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk to the car, where off to our lunch we tootled, listening to westlife. actually, there was quite a bit of drama there, coz, at first, leanne had rang to confess ... "i'm stuck ... i've lost my keys." luckily, after ransacking her home, she found them, and so was able to make it to lunch!
to be honest, i can't remember if the place was called 'oishii sushi' or 'ishii sushi', but mum and leanne sat down and ordered even before i had a good chance to look at the menu. but i was happy though! BEAUTIFUL chicken sushi, not wrapped in seeweed, but, of all things, in EGG!anyways, after happily gobbling my beautiful chicken sushi down - mum and leanne had crab sushi, or sth - leanne ordered one more to share, an eel one. originally, i wasn't sure if i'd like, but surprisingly, it was very nice! them, the highlight of the arvo - desert! i got a deep fried icecream with chocolate topping!^^ of course, i shared some with leanne and mum, but what could i say? oh, a full tummy is a happy one. anyways, lunch over, mum beat leanne in the fight to pay, a whopping FIFTY bucks! hmm ... let's get sth cheaper this time, no?
so, time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk out and to the car. i thought we weregoing home, but no, off we tootled to kuraby, where mum had great fun as she FORCED :( me to walk all the way to the pergola. i plonked my bum down, with its sore left ankle and MAJORLY wobbling left thigh. we chatted for awhile - how cool is this? leanne's told me that if i work hard at my walking, she'll shout me to outback australia for my 22nd bday!i'm excited!
anyways, the coolest thing was that while we were seated and chatting, an asian woman rocked up and gave us a - whoops, vincent the physio's here. bbl~ time is now 7:09pm
hello again! time is now 8:04pm, and i'm not really sure that i'll be able to finish my blog in time for house! >< anyways, my final plodding total for today is ... 2694. good, i hope!
so, where was i? ok, the lovely asian woman that gave us a box of little maxibon bits! yumyum! anyways, there were 15 in the box, so we had 5 each. of course, we thanked the really nice woman, who explained, "my kids don't like them."anyways, time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car, leanne encouraging me all the way. we said our byes and thanks once i got into the car. mum stuck herself in as well, and off home we tootled, still listening to westlife. mum FORCED :( me to walk in once we got home, to be shortly followed by my egyptian ursula birdie. she gave me a shower first - hairwash today - and i went for a tinkle afterwards, b4 she got me redressed. i tootled over for some arvo tea, just a pear today and a cup of tetley's british blend. no sandwhich today, coz mum had decided that i was too full after lunch. oh well. i had a chat with ursula, who told me that her son clinton is a holden boy, not ford, and has gone to the indy with his girlfriend, who, i might add, is NOT pregnant. :P anyways, she left when ding dong! aunty katherine arrived. she's just bought a house, by the way. so, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the toilet, where i had a tinkle, FORCED :( me to walk the few steps to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk back to aunty katherine, who told me the antics that daniel and his older bro get up to. when she left, mum FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky, where i tootled online for awhile. dad came home, i gobbled my dinner, then ding dong! vincent the physio came. he dragged me walking barefooted, then he slapped my socks, shoes and splint back on and dragged me walking up the stairs twice. luckily, he allowed me to hang onto his physio assosciociation tee. so i said a happy hello to my totoro little mushroom things happily, then when we got back down, he dragged me on another 2 or 3 circle round of the house, b4 letting me collapse gratefully back into sparky. i've just jumped online to quickly finish up my blog, uncle calvin has also popped by. anyways, see yous all toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
so, em snored happily in bed this morning. daddy bear snored louder :P right next to me, content that he (along with me, of course! sheesh :P) had gotten a goobye kiss from dearest dad this morning. so, mum dug me up. to be honest, i can't remember what she helped me to do and what she forced me to do myself, but i had a tinkle in the pot :P oh dear, but while my mum has forced my left hand to hold onto harry, i've lost lily! *wails*
anyways, me all presentable for the day, mum clipped my pedometer onto me, and then FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she forced me to get a plastic container, forced me to fill it up[ with water, and forced me to spit out my mouth splint into it. oh, and i'm just back from the sport's news - telstra shares are up 5c! they're at $4.03! and my dearest daddy just came home :)so he came in and gave me a kiss. oh, and i'm being summoned to dinner now, so bbl! time is now ... 6:29pm.
*burp* i'm back! :P time is now 6:44 pm, and dinner has been gobbled. but what a surprise! coz no rice tonight! just pasta in carrot, tomato and potato soup, and a little bit of chicken and a little bit of yummy spam ham. but sadly, there was no pear juice tonight, coz i've finished the previous can and pig mum needs dad to open the new can for her! um, to be honest, i'm not sure why pig mum is incapable of using a can opener, but yeah :P so thanks to her anyways for pouring me half a cup of water. so, where was i?
then mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the gobbling table :P where i was only fed a glass of milk as she went to hang up the washing. time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the loo, as i needed a tinkle. prolly not worth mentioning, but she forced me to pull my daks down and pull them up afterwards, too. then she FORCED :( me to walk the few steps over to wash my right hand, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk to the car, where off to our lunch we tootled, listening to westlife. actually, there was quite a bit of drama there, coz, at first, leanne had rang to confess ...

tuesday post
hello again! so, this evening, i plodded another 82 steps, so i'm proud to report that my final plodding total for today is now ... 2003!
anyways, karen and jo both rocked up at 3pm, poor jo with her ankle all strapped up; but she said she had sprained it while taking out the rubbish, then asked me to invent a more dramatic story up for her :P
anyways, jo left us and karen gave me a shower first - hairwash today. i had a tinkle afterwards, then karen redressed me and stuck my sandals on. back in sparky, i tootled over for some arvo tea - a toasted ham and cheese sandwhich (too bad, only one slice of cheese, so ENTIRELY too thin for my tastes)and a cup of tetley's british blend with a spoonful of honey. i really think i prefer that to english breakfast!
anyways, am being summoned to dinner, so bbl~ time is now ... 7:36pm
hello again! 'tis 7:49pm now, and i've happily gobbled dinner. if i haven't already said, today is an orange apron day. anyways, dinner tonight - rice, a piece of tofu, some beans, and a spoonful or 2 of beef mince. all washed down with a cup of heavily watered-down pear juice kindly poured to me by dear dad. so, where was i?
oh, yeah. after arvo tea, karen grabbed me for some hand exercise. i asked her as well, and i admit, i was a bit pooped to find out i was the ONLY one of her charges who has to do ANY exercises. EVER. poo poo; oh well. so, therband, theraplaydough :P squeezy/grapey/nipple/breast ball :P etc etc etc. then i tootled over for some piano practice; both hands. news time, i tootled over to the TV; karen fed me 2 crackers and flipped on the TV, where we watched 7's evening news. bad thing? telstra shares have dropped. AGAIN. >< they're like at $3.94, or sth terrible like that. anyways, news and weather all done, i asked karen to slap my socks, splint and shoes on, then she took me to the loo once. i came back, signed the sheet for her, and we said our thanks and byes. after dinner, i tootled back online. so, i guess, just some news for me, maybe an episode of naruto. i think my ursula birdie's coming from 1pm till 4pm; not 4 hrs, coz aunty katherine should be popping along at 4, to help me amble up and down the hallway. anyways, catch yous all toms!
cheers,

monday post
hi! ok, so i plodded 1644 steps today. a good start to the week then, me hopes?
so, daddy bear and i snored happily this morning. he snores louder :P dear dad came to kiss me bye bye and even gave my silly bear a peck as well. so we slept, content, until mum decided it was time to dig me up. i went in the pot:P she got me kitted, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling table. then, ding dong! aunty frances came. so, she very nicely fed me a sausage bun - and yes, i ate all the bread first :P i also slurped down a yummy chocolate nesquik. oops, toilet break, sorry!
anyways, as mum rocked off - i can't remember where, sorry! - aunty frances grabbed me for exercises. arms first, then legs. i squeezed my thighs together x 200; but only when i had finished did she tell me my thighs hadn't touched her hand and that i'd had to do them again. well, sorry, no. i told her, if that's her requirement, i'd remember in a fortnight's time, but that there was no way i'd give her 400. so we just sat there for a few minutes until aunty yvonne came. so, after some left hand exercise, and some stepping exercises, she soon had me ambling up and down the hallway - forwards, backwards, and sideways. i got aunty frances to take me to the loo once more, then i signed the sheet for her and said my thanks and byes, as ding dong! mum came home, with aunty catherine. so i got mum to show them the cute little avocado dad had bought, then we said our byes to them all and i sat down to gobble my lunch. just some plain pasta with carrots, tomato and potatoes in soup. i told mum that it was a bit tasteless, so thanks to pig mum who put a dash of salt into my bowl for me. anyways, lunch gobbled, mum banished me to bed. she FORCED :( me to walk back to bed, but very kindly undid the straps of my blue tornado boot for me. then she let me read my might and power racehorse book for awhile as she went to ring rod from goodwill orthopaedics. i settled in for a snooze when she got off the phone, and didn't get up until dolly came at 3:30pm. and how cool is this? dolly has the SAME bday as my beloved daddy!
so, she gave me a shower first - hairwash today. then i did a tinkle in the loo, b4 she redressed mein socks, splint and everything and then helped me walk over to the table for some arvo tea. i got: a cup of tetley's english blend with 2 tea spoonfuls of honey, and a toasted ham and cheese sandwhich - but only one slice of cheese, so rather too thin. oh well. dolly then grabbed me for a good 40mins of left hand exercise, e.g. theraplaydough :P, random raising and lifting, picking up those colourful sticky balls and rice bags - actually, she encouraged me to throw them in her face :P later, as dear dad came home, i told him about them having the same bdays - dolly claimed she was younger :P anyways, she chopped a pear into lotsa little pieces for me, and i shared it with her and dad. mum woke up from pig land :P found my walk belt, and i got dolly to take me to the loo once. actually, she's living with her uncle right now, and is a vegetarian - though i think i've said that before. so i came back, we sat down to do a crossword, then, later, she helped me walk over to the piano, where i continued teaching her how to play 'happy bday' and she grabbed my left hand to thunk at the keys. almost time to go, i had her take me to the loo once more, as ding dong! dear aunty a turned up! anyways, mum signed the sheet for dolly - i'll see her again sometime this weekend, i'm fairly certain - and we said our byes and thanks. dad called dinner - rice tonight, with some 'kai choy' - what i call 'foo choi' coz it's bitter! >< yucky. and a piece of carrot, some mince, and a little piece of chicken, which i of course saved for last. mum kindly poured me a yummy but unfortunately HEAVILY watered pear juice, as aunty a told us how she went to the great wall and got to eat yummy peking duck. anyways, me with a happy tummy, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the table, where she got dad to roll me up sparky and i tootled online. not really sure when, actually, so i'll just go read some news then hit pig land myself. see you toms, all!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i hope toms goes well, with mrs. mouse inspecting my wonky left leg.
P.P.S. oh, and i've already picked out my lunch for toms - yummy chicken risotto!

so, she gave me a shower first - hairwash today. then i did a tinkle in the loo, b4 she redressed mein socks, splint and everything and then helped me walk over to the table for some arvo tea. i got: a cup of tetley's english blend with 2 tea spoonfuls of honey, and a toasted ham and cheese sandwhich - but only one slice of cheese, so rather too thin. oh well. dolly then grabbed me for a good 40mins of left hand exercise, e.g. theraplaydough :P, random raising and lifting, picking up those colourful sticky balls and rice bags - actually, she encouraged me to throw them in her face :P later, as dear dad came home, i told him about them having the same bdays - dolly claimed she was younger :P anyways, she chopped a pear into lotsa little pieces for me, and i shared it with her and dad. mum woke up from pig land :P found my walk belt, and i got dolly to take me to the loo once. actually, she's living with her uncle right now, and is a vegetarian - though i think i've said that before. so i came back, we sat down to do a crossword, then, later, she helped me walk over to the piano, where i continued teaching her how to play 'happy bday' and she grabbed my left hand to thunk at the keys. almost time to go, i had her take me to the loo once more, as ding dong! dear aunty a turned up! anyways, mum signed the sheet for dolly - i'll see her again sometime this weekend, i'm fairly certain - and we said our byes and thanks. dad called dinner - rice tonight, with some 'kai choy' - what i call 'foo choi' coz it's bitter! >< yucky. and a piece of carrot, some mince, and a little piece of chicken, which i of course saved for last. mum kindly poured me a yummy but unfortunately HEAVILY watered pear juice, as aunty a told us how she went to the great wall and got to eat yummy peking duck. anyways, me with a happy tummy, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the table, where she got dad to roll me up sparky and i tootled online. not really sure when, actually, so i'll just go read some news then hit pig land myself. see you toms, all!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. i hope toms goes well, with mrs. mouse inspecting my wonky left leg.
P.P.S. oh, and i've already picked out my lunch for toms - yummy chicken risotto!

sunday post
yo! so, i plodded 1846 steps today. a good end to the week, i hope!
anyways, this morning i got up, went in the pot, and much thanks to pig mum who got me kitted for the day. unfortunately, she then chose to FORCE :( me to walk out to the gobbling table :P dad had already buttered (well, rice oil spreaded - but is that even really a word?) and jammed (i'm fairly certain that's NOT a word, but oh well) :P a slice of toast for me, which i washed down with a glass of plain milk, but then dad decided to ridicule me for not eating fast enough to meet his perfect standards. oh, well. anyways, breakkie all munched up, parents FORCED :( me to walk out to the car and off to church we tootled. actually, for some reason, pig mum denied me permission to flick the CD player on - some asian singer is in again - ruth tsang? (that's pronounced 'chung', BTW), then also denied me permission to sing my fav. song, so i just sang it in my head. i can't remember how many bottles i got down to thopugh, prolly around 50. so, once at church, pig mum FORCED :( me to walk in, and she and dad even refused to give me my wheelchair to sit on.
anyways, mikey played piano for worship, and mum forced me to stand upduring. speaker today was uncle/pastor chong again, and he continued his sermon on what's god's plan for you. there was no communion afterwards, but as i needed the bathroom, pig mum FORCED :(me to walk in for a long pee, then, as she was kindly yanking up my daks for me, i reached over and washed my right hand. pig mum then FORCED :( me to walk back outside, where we chatted with a few ppl. time to go, i grabbed pole, my blue physio, and she helped me walk out. dad got in too, and off to uncle eddy's we tootled, for bible study. i just wonder what we're doing next week, though, today we did chapter 50! (the last)a girl named alice took it, vince tells me that she's mandarin.anyways, after bible study was over, i indicated to janice that i needed the bathroom, so thanks to her and christy jie who helped me walk into the loo. jellybean dakked me, i had a long tinkle, and then she un-dakked me :P dad soon came back, and FORCED :( me to walk back out to the car, where back home we tootled. dad FORCED :( me to walk back inside, and we ate our lunch. pig mum was still snoring away. :P so i guess i should count myself very lucky to have 1 piece of chicken with most of the skin peeled off and 5-10 little chippies. dad had a works burger, which he very nicely let me take a chomp out of. anyways, lunch finished, dad ordered bed for me, and so he FORCED :( me to walk there. actually, i went to the bathroom first, b4 dad FORCED :( me to go wash my right hand, and then FORCED :( me to walk back to bed. but thanks to dad who helped me pull of the straps of my blue tornado boot. so away i snored, then mum came to dig me up when it was time to go. i went in the pot once, then mum slapped on my boot and shoes and FORCED :( me to walk out to the car. so off to sunnybank baptist we tootled. mum FORCED :( me to walk in once we got there, leanne came and sat next to me, and it started. mum forced me to stand up for the singing, meaning that she owes me 2 drinks now. maybe i'll use one when uncle slam takes me to see the newest 007 film ... then, pastor constance (not sure if that's really his name, sorry!) chow spoke to each of those to be dunked, then dunked them :P i cheered for all of them. then the choir sang a song, and mum forced me to stand again as pastor chow delivered the benediction, or whatever it really was. sermon over, mum FORCED :( me to walk outside, where i took a few happy snaps with janice. outside, i planted my bum on a bench seat, and thanks to dear dad who went and dug me up a plateful of food. actually, thanks to smoky who first fed me sth yummy ... can't remember what it was, sorry. >< i chatted to a few ppl, and when it was time to leave, thanks to aunty katherine who helped me walk out. i congratulated soccer dan on winning his grand final, and he plays left back - just like i used to do! not only that, but the talented boy also took out MVP! anyways, dad piled in, and back home we tootled. parents FORCED :( me to walk in once we arrived, i headed for the loo and a tinkle. then parents FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, before they FORCED :( me to walk back to my room/the study. i wanted to read, but mum said no, so i decided to sing, but mum threatened zip it else no net tonight, so i went to sleep. i was counting up to the 700s when mum came in and woke me; i continued counting to aroundabouts 1600 when she came to dig me up. i went in the pot :P then mum slapped my boot and shoes on, then she FORCED :( me out to the gobbling table. thanks to dad who had poured me a cup of yummy but unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down pear juice; i also took the opportunity to steal half a spoonful of mince and a bean.

saturday post
hi!, so i plodded 1200 steps today. not bad, yeah?
anyways, pig mum got up to go to work today, and also got me up to go to the pot once. i went back to pig land, and dad dug me up a few hours later, got me kitted, then FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling table. :P anyways, i'm being called to dinner, so will be back later. time is now ... 7:08pm.
*burp* :P i'm back!it's 7:24 pm now, and dinner has been gobbled. as usual, rice tonight, with some bok choy (but don't ask me which one :P), one spoonful of yummy tomato, onion and mince, and lotsa fish, what pig mum otherwise calls 'brain food'. that was all washed down with a yummy but unfortunately HEAVILY watered-down cup of pear juice. then i took off my apron and tootled back online. so, where was i?
oh yeah. so, dear dad kindly made me some ham and eggs on toast for breakfast, which i washed down with a glass of plain milk. all gobbled up, dad FORCED :( me to walk to his truck, where off to southbank we tootledfor letty's 21st. when we got there, dad unloaded me into sparkless, and kindly pushed me a fair part of the way, b4 coming back and FORCING :( me to walk 150-odd steps or so. letty met us there - and here's a surprise - i was the 1st party guest to arrive!anyways, janice, wilfred and co soon arrived as well, and i had a chat to dear perry berry, who's working at a child care in griffith uni, nathan campus? i think. anyways, dad came back, and was about to rock off, but i indicated to him that i needed the bathroom first. so janice the jellybean came with us. dad left us at the entrance to the disabled loo, and janice rolled me in. she dakked me, i had a long tinkle, then she re-dakked me. (N.B. i'm pretty sure 're-dak' doesn't mean 'pulled my trousers back up for me' but you get the point, yeah?) i washed and dried my right hand, then janice took me back out to dad who rolled me back to the ever-growing party scene. anyways, b4 dad rocked off for the day, he totally smothered me in sunscreen first. em is a white devil :P then he rocked off, leaving me in the clutches of pole and the like. i gave my bday card to letty, dared to call her 'cabbage' just ONE last time :P( well, it just means she's safe till next year):P we sat and chatted as more and more turned up, like my best buddy pole plop, and spacey gracey, etc. :Pwhen lunch was called, i was really happy to be personally served my food by letty, as a reward for turning up first. :P a long yummy sausage, some delicious caesar salad, and other stuff that stupid me has somehow forgotten. :P thanks to pole and leanne who alternated helping me to hold my plate and getting me cups of fruit punch. gobbling accomplished :P pole helped me hobble over to the shade, where we sat taking photos and demanded that letty make a speech. she did succumb to the pressure. eventually. :P then, cake time! i was beaten to the hip hips by a guy called clinton, who has a family of 4 boys that beats aunty jenny's 4. why? coz they're really ABCD! :P so i happily gobbled my cake, and thanks to clinton who let me try a mini-pavlova, or whatever they're really called. anyways, dad came to pick me up soon after, and rolled me back to the truck, where we tootled home, listening to 97.3FM and enrique iglesias (however his last name's spelt). once home, dad re-attached the walkbelt to me, and FORCED :( me to walk back inside. dear pig mum met us at the door, and took me to the loo. to be honest, i can't remember who did the dakking and un-dakking, althougfh i suspect it was me. anyways, one long tinkle over, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. i kissed goodbye to dear dad who was heading over to uncle ching's to work, then tootled back to listen to mum instruct alma as to what to feed me, what exercises to make me do, etc. and how cool is this - turns out that alma knows dolly!anyways, i was transferred in to the showerchair first, then wheeled in for a nice hot shower - hairwash today. thanks to alma who helped me out a lot. after, she wheeled me into the loo for a quick tinkle, then got me redressed in just sandals. i tootled over for some arvo tea - a yummy juicy pear - i saved alma a slice of course - a cup of tetley's british blend sweetened with just a spoonful of honey,and a yummy chocolate harsiubing. alma got herself a cup of coffee, and we sat down for a chat. turns out she rings and talks to her 2yr-old son every sunday, and that the little tyke likes to run around starkers after a shower, lol! :P she's a vegetarian - not a vegan - and her husband works at a cafe. also, that they eat a lot of bread, and while the indians and pakistani speak the same language, they write differently. we started on some hand exercises after, mainly theraplaydough :P i did ask her my usual question of who does more/less than i do, but i admit, i can't remember her answer. so, at 6pm, she flipped the news on, and we watched it on 7 together. when it was over, she put my socks, splint and shoes opn for me, and took me to the loo once. back out, i signed the sheet for her, and we said our thanks and byes. i hope she can come to help me sometime again!
yeah, then you know the rest of the story. dear dad's gone off to uncle tyrone's presumably to watch some more soccer. i'm due off at around 9:10pm, so just plan to read the news, nothing else really much. anyways, i hope to see you all at church toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
P.S. ohh ... toms, i don't think anyone will be coming to help us toms, as i'm going to the baptism - janice is getting baptised! actually, dear pole plop got baptised after i fell ill. anyways, i hope to get baptised once i'm well and truly back on my feet. oh, and just a last wish - that dear pig mum will give me a nice hot shower toms, as opposed to a barely lukewarm one. fingers are crossed, but hopes aren't up. cya!
P.P.S.on a note of complaint, the stupid nose started leaking this arvo, and hasn't stopped. AT ALL. hmph. >< i mean, sheesh, i already took a garlic tablet this arvo! ><
anyways, pig mum got up to go to work today, and also got me up to go to the pot once. i went back to pig land, and dad dug me up a few hours later, got me kitted, then FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling table. :P anyways, i'm being called to dinner, so will be back later. time is now ... 7:08pm.

Friday post
oi:P ok, so i plodded 2370 steps today. a good end to the week, i hope!
and a huge thanks must go to kwany - wow, ANOTHER comment? em's ego is surely being inflated, right now :P oh, and please don't go and pop it, coz then em will be all depressed... :P
anyways, i was sleeping happily this morning, only to be shoved awake by daddy bear. "dear dad's about to go," he warned. "make sure you stay awake, because I need a goodbye kiss from dad too." so i obediently stayed awake, meaning that when my beloved dad came to kiss me goodbye, silly daddy bear got a peck too. then we just happily snored until mum decided it was time to kick my lazy bum up :P first up, a stinky unspeakable :P then mum forced me to put my own knickers and trousers on, b4 she slapped my socks, colourful splint and shoes on for me. finally, she clipped my pedometer onto me, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she forced me to grab a plastic container, forced me to fill it up with water, and forced me to spit my mouth splint into it. then, having decided on just wrong for breakfast :P mum FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen for milk (hey, i gotta remember to check out A2 milk's website!) FORCED :( me to walk to the cupboard for the cereal, then FORCED :( me to walk back to the benchtop. there, she forced me to de-lid and spoon out my own cereal, forced me to spoon out a little for a bowl,then forced me to de-lid, pour and re-lid my own milk. finally, she FORCED :( me to walk back to the gobbling table :P where she slapped the orange apron onto me - i think she's somehow lost my blue one, or sth ... - and bade me eat- gobble, gobble, gobble, slurp. :P gobble, gobble, gobble and slurp ;P done, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the loo, FORCED :( me to walk over to the basin to wash my right hand, and FORCED :( me to walk out to the car, where off to goodwill orthopaedics we tootled. mum FORCED :( me to walk in, i sat down with a gossip mag, and rod with the extra head and extra toes rocked up :P whipping off my boot, he examined it and took it to modify, or sth. he came back, slapped it back on my foot, and i obediently stood and hobbled a few steps for him. all done, we said our thanks and byes, then mum FORCED:(me to walk back to the car, where off to the plaza for our lunch date with aunty vicky we tootled. mum parked, then FORCED :( me to walk down to cafe mi, me conveniently catching an escalator down the way. we ran into aunty brenda, uncle patrick and uncle wallace there, too! i think that couple are returning to HK soon. we also saw uncle david, who kindly pulled up a chair for me. you know, how he always has the same thing there at cafe mi :P i glanced at the menu, but sadly, nothing for me there today. spicy choices, too bad. i think pig mum settled for a B meal, some portugese chicken rice thing. i stuck with my all-time favourite, the pork chop with a fried egg in tomato rice. aunty vicky soon rocked up, choosing a hainam chicken rice, dad's favourite. mum and i had ours with cold milk tea, aunty vicky with a hot lemon water. aunty vicky's meal arrived first, and she very kindly shared a piece of her chicken with pig mum and i. our food arrived shortly after; first thing i did was give aunty vicky a piece of my yummy fried pork in return. pig mum had to steal a piece as well, along with some rice, so i reciprocated and drank some of her yummy chicken soup. anyways, lunch all gobbled up, i needed the bathroom, so mum FORCED :( to walk all the way around to the disabled toilets. the door's quite cool! anyways, a long tinkle after, thanks to pig mum who yanked my daks back up for me. then she FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk back outside to where aunty vicky was waiting. i was then FORCED :( to walk to dollars and sense, where i picked up a bday card for dear cabbag-err, letty :P aunty vicky kindly went to pay for us (it was only a buck or two), while pig mum FORCED :( me to walk to a nearby seat, where my knees buckled for a rest. during that time, jo from coda rang to say she couldn't find anyone to come today - so i hope pig mum will gimme a hot shower tonight! but no, fingers are crossed but hopes aren't up. aunty vicky came back, and was so nice she rocked off to buy 'har siu bing' for us. i placed an order of chocolate down, and a red bean one for dad. actually, i rung dear dad while she was gone, who's at geebung right now. so, when aunty vicky came back, mum decided it was time to go, and FORCED :( me to get up and walk to the car, me stopping by at a bench to rest my tired lrgs for a few minutes. we listened to michael leung as we rocked home, then, once we got there, mum FORCED :( me to walk in to the loo, i had a tinkle - oh, and mum also forced me to yank my daks up and down - then mum FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, b4 she FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. i tootled online, as aunty vicky came to visit. actually, she's just gone now, and i got a letter re. my hospital visit last friday. turns ot that the doctor who saw me was called dr. teong chuah. anyways, my MRI is scheduled for 5th december. it's a friday. the other letter is an invoice from cathay :P

hi! so, i plodded another 558 steps tonight, meaning that my plodding total for today is now 1535. looking good!
but first of all, a great big big BIG thankyou! to my favourite jellybean (ok, so i only know one:P) for the comment! em is a very happy chappy :P right now. ^^
so, when my egyptian ursula birdie came (yeah, she really does walk like one, if you ask her to :P) she gave me a shower first, complete with hairwash today. i did an unspeakable :P afterwards, then she got me kitted up in everything. i tootled over for arvo tea - one very yummy but slightly too thin toasted ham and cheese sandwhich (yes, i did nibble off all the crusts first) and a cup of ... i forgot the brand ... >< tetley's? british blend, just too bad that mum deigned (sp?) to gimme > teaspoon of honey. but i admit, i think i like the british blend better than the english breakfast. anyways, once all gobbled up, it was time to go, so mum FORCED :( (sorry, jellybean) me to walk out to the car. ursula drove me to vincent's. he had me walk in, delivered one mega-painful (the left leg is the winner tonight, followed closely by the neck)but comfy massage, and had me walk out, handing me back to my ursula birdie. ursula paid him, took a receipt in return, and guided me to walk out to her car, thankfully fairly closeby. we tootled home, ursula for some strange reason going the ultra-long way? but, oh the shame. >< must've been the tea, but once home, em was wet. >< anyways, mum FORCED :( me to walk in and kindly changed me as my egyptian ursula birdie :Pwent to chop up a pear for me. all done, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk back to the living room, where i plopped my bum on our old but comfy couch, and we all shared the pear my kind ursula birdie had cut up for me. once the news was over, mum got me up, FORCED :( me to walk over to the steps, FORCED :( me to walk up those steps, then FORCED :( me to walk to my room. i flopped on my bed and showed my darling rainbow to ursula, who said he was mega-cute, but couldn't enlighten me as to exactly what type of animal he was, either. ah well, i guess it'll just remain a mystery. anyways, time to go, mum dragged me up and FORCED :( me to walk back down the stairs, then FORCED :( me to walk down to sign the sheet for ursula, as my dear dad came home. so, we said our byes and thanks to ursula, who'll come back next wed. and thurs. makes me wonder, who's doing the other days? so, mum FORCED :( me to walk her out, b4 forcing me to do more standing practice. i counted 6mins + b4 she FORCED me to walk over for dinner. rice tonight, with a few yummy tablespoons of mince meat and tomato and onion, some bok choy (i think, but don't count me on that!) and ... umm, i think that's all :P oh, and mum also forced my left hand to hang on to the bowl as i was eating. anyways, all happily gobbled, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the fridge, forced me to open the door, forced me to grab the can of pear juice, and FORCED :( me to walk over to the benchtop. she then forced me to uncap the pear juice, forced me to fill half a cup with it, and forced me to HEAVILY :( dilute it down with water. but she did kindly toss it back into the fridge for me as i was drinking it. anyways, all done, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the computer table, where i stood by myself for approx a min as she went to roll up sparky for me. then, as a reward for not hanging on for dear life to the benchtop, mum kindly fed me a tiny piece of milk chocolate.
anyways, think i'll call it a night here. i'm off to watch my weekly fix :P of naruto, then hitting snoozeland. goodnite, all!

tuesday post14
hi!, so, ok, i plodded 3200 steps today. looking good!
anyways, daddy bear and i had a good snore today, both content that we'd gotten a byebye kiss from dear daddy as he left for work this morning. anyways, i wanna ring him now ...yay! i did. my dearest daddy is in the valley right now, and he's gobbled his lunch too. so, pig mum dug me up fairly late this morning, say, past 9am :P i did a stinky unspeakable in the pot, then she got me kitted up for the day, me reminding her to slap on my old boot, just in case the P&O people saw my new blue tornado one and so refuse to make me a new one. all done, mum went and FORCED :( me to the gobbling table. ding dong! aunty joanne arrived and thanks to either her or mum who kindly poured me out a great big bowl of just wrong :P so, i went a-gobbling, and when i was finished, mum gave me my pills to pop for the day: 1 bilberry - good for your eyes - and 2 fish oil tablets. just no garlic tablet today, coz the nose was surprisingly well-behaved today. hope that continues! oh, and mum is just doing some phone banking right now. anyways, me swallowed my drugs for the day, then mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car. aunty joanne piled in as well, and after slapping on my cool blue sunglasses - same as aunty yvonne's pair! -off to the PA we tootled. once there, mum parked far, far, away, >< then, seeing as i needed to go pee again, FORCED :( me to walk in to the loo. then, after a long tinkle, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then she FORCED :( me to walk intothe day physio. mum and aunty joanne rocked off to buy lunch, with me calling to mum, "i want LOTSA gravy, please!" anyways, tricia turned up, and we started our physio session. just some normal (forward) walking up and down the parallel bars, then some left hand beanbag work. actually, tricia rolled my bare left foot - she'd taken everything off - over a tennis ball, to promote good movement, or sth like that, anyway. oh, almost forgot! actuallky, tricia jokingly scolded me for reading my own medical chart; personally, i'm just thankful that i read the line that i was of sound mental health! haha, i told you - me not psychotic, see? :P
so, tricia handed me back to pig mum and aunty joanne at midday, actually, next tuesday, i'll have no physio, coz mrs. mouse will be examining my wonky left leg. hope it goes well! anyways, the doorbell's just rang - my carer's early - it's only 2:49pm. Anyways, me going for a shower now – bye!
hello again! well, it's 7:10pm now ... and i've done lots! but first things first: i'm pretty sure that amanda turns 28 on april 16th. but i'll check when she comes again! oh, and she's having a jaffle for tea tonight. apparently, that's just a fancy name for a toasted sandwhich. i should check that out on dictionary.com ...
well, that site didn't have it, but reference did ... and she's right! a jaffle is a toasted sandwhich, or the actual thing itself (ie. a sandwhich press).
so, where was i? oh, yeah: she gave me a shower first, hairwash today. i went for a tinkle afterwards, then she redressed me, transferred me back to sparky, and i tootled over for some arvo tea. a yummy toasted ham and cheese sandwhich, a pear - amanda again declined a slice coz of her sore braces which had just been tightened - she took a quarter of my toasted cheese and ham sandwhich instead - and we both had a cup of tetley's british blend hot tea with 2 teaspoons of honey each. we had a chat while we were munching/drinking. turns out her mum, whose bday is on 31st dec, turns 49 this year. then we started on a good 40mins of hand exercises, e.g. theraband x 400 - 200 per hand - and arm raising x 200 - 100 per hand. we also had a go at the theraplaydough :P anyways, after all that was done, amanda helped me walk into the toilet once and back outagain, where i then practised piano for 20mins, 10 on each hand. i went back to the kitchen, where amanda then fed me 2 wholemeal crackers plus a chocolate nesquik. we settled down for the news after watching some lucky woman winning $40000 on deal or no deal. anyways, after the news - i don't remember the number but telstra shares have gone up again - yay! then amanda helped me walk into and out of the bathroom again. i watched a bit of today tonight, hosted by some guy, mum signed the sheet for amanda then she said her thanks and byes. i think she's trying to apply to come like 4 days a week. i like her! just, too bad, i haven't persuaded her to bring me a cheesy crust pizza yet. too bad, i need to pee. i'll come back after and tell you my final total of steps walked today.
yo! it's 8:45 pm now, and yes, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the loo, FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, and FORCED :( me to walk over to the stairs, where clever dad had stuck up a railing so that my right hand could take a grip too. anyways, he FORCED :( me up the stairs, remember, right leg first, and into my bathroom, where i took a seat and blew my dribbling nose. to be honest, i had decided that i was too tired to make the walk to my room, but pig mum FORCED :( me to walk there anyway. i flopped on my bed, kept blowing my nose, and cuddled rainbow, who told me he had missed me and when was i going to sleep with him. anyways, dad came up to snap at us that dinner was ready, so, after putting my splint and socks back on, and me saying bye to rainbow, parents FORCED :( me to walk back down the steps. if i had thought i could've let my sore legs plop back into sparky, fat chance. parents FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling table :P where, as pig mum had forgotten to cook the rice, we ate 'fun see', with a few choy sum, a piece of lobok, and a little piece of chicken omelette. i washed that down with a cup of HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. sadly, i can't say it's yummy tonight, coz there was seriously more water than anything. mum explains that itwas coz of the fact that the can is almost finished. oh well, mum then FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky, so my final plodding total for today is now ... 3200. anyways, it's 9pm already, so i think i will read the news then call it a night. not sure how many exercises mum will force me to do tonight, i just pray to percy the angel that it won't be too much. anyways, will see you all again toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

anyways, daddy bear and i had a good snore today, both content that we'd gotten a byebye kiss from dear daddy as he left for work this morning. anyways, i wanna ring him now ...yay! i did. my dearest daddy is in the valley right now, and he's gobbled his lunch too. so, pig mum dug me up fairly late this morning, say, past 9am :P i did a stinky unspeakable in the pot, then she got me kitted up for the day, me reminding her to slap on my old boot, just in case the P&O people saw my new blue tornado one and so refuse to make me a new one. all done, mum went and FORCED :( me to the gobbling table. ding dong! aunty joanne arrived and thanks to either her or mum who kindly poured me out a great big bowl of just wrong :P so, i went a-gobbling, and when i was finished, mum gave me my pills to pop for the day: 1 bilberry - good for your eyes - and 2 fish oil tablets. just no garlic tablet today, coz the nose was surprisingly well-behaved today. hope that continues! oh, and mum is just doing some phone banking right now. anyways, me swallowed my drugs for the day, then mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car. aunty joanne piled in as well, and after slapping on my cool blue sunglasses - same as aunty yvonne's pair! -off to the PA we tootled. once there, mum parked far, far, away, >< then, seeing as i needed to go pee again, FORCED :( me to walk in to the loo. then, after a long tinkle, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, then she FORCED :( me to walk intothe day physio. mum and aunty joanne rocked off to buy lunch, with me calling to mum, "i want LOTSA gravy, please!" anyways, tricia turned up, and we started our physio session. just some normal (forward) walking up and down the parallel bars, then some left hand beanbag work. actually, tricia rolled my bare left foot - she'd taken everything off - over a tennis ball, to promote good movement, or sth like that, anyway. oh, almost forgot! actuallky, tricia jokingly scolded me for reading my own medical chart; personally, i'm just thankful that i read the line that i was of sound mental health! haha, i told you - me not psychotic, see? :P
so, tricia handed me back to pig mum and aunty joanne at midday, actually, next tuesday, i'll have no physio, coz mrs. mouse will be examining my wonky left leg. hope it goes well! anyways, the doorbell's just rang - my carer's early - it's only 2:49pm. Anyways, me going for a shower now – bye!
hello again! well, it's 7:10pm now ... and i've done lots! but first things first: i'm pretty sure that amanda turns 28 on april 16th. but i'll check when she comes again! oh, and she's having a jaffle for tea tonight. apparently, that's just a fancy name for a toasted sandwhich. i should check that out on dictionary.com ...
well, that site didn't have it, but reference did ... and she's right! a jaffle is a toasted sandwhich, or the actual thing itself (ie. a sandwhich press).
so, where was i? oh, yeah: she gave me a shower first, hairwash today. i went for a tinkle afterwards, then she redressed me, transferred me back to sparky, and i tootled over for some arvo tea. a yummy toasted ham and cheese sandwhich, a pear - amanda again declined a slice coz of her sore braces which had just been tightened - she took a quarter of my toasted cheese and ham sandwhich instead - and we both had a cup of tetley's british blend hot tea with 2 teaspoons of honey each. we had a chat while we were munching/drinking. turns out her mum, whose bday is on 31st dec, turns 49 this year. then we started on a good 40mins of hand exercises, e.g. theraband x 400 - 200 per hand - and arm raising x 200 - 100 per hand. we also had a go at the theraplaydough :P anyways, after all that was done, amanda helped me walk into the toilet once and back outagain, where i then practised piano for 20mins, 10 on each hand. i went back to the kitchen, where amanda then fed me 2 wholemeal crackers plus a chocolate nesquik. we settled down for the news after watching some lucky woman winning $40000 on deal or no deal. anyways, after the news - i don't remember the number but telstra shares have gone up again - yay! then amanda helped me walk into and out of the bathroom again. i watched a bit of today tonight, hosted by some guy, mum signed the sheet for amanda then she said her thanks and byes. i think she's trying to apply to come like 4 days a week. i like her! just, too bad, i haven't persuaded her to bring me a cheesy crust pizza yet. too bad, i need to pee. i'll come back after and tell you my final total of steps walked today.
yo! it's 8:45 pm now, and yes, mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the loo, FORCED :( me to walk over to wash my right hand, and FORCED :( me to walk over to the stairs, where clever dad had stuck up a railing so that my right hand could take a grip too. anyways, he FORCED :( me up the stairs, remember, right leg first, and into my bathroom, where i took a seat and blew my dribbling nose. to be honest, i had decided that i was too tired to make the walk to my room, but pig mum FORCED :( me to walk there anyway. i flopped on my bed, kept blowing my nose, and cuddled rainbow, who told me he had missed me and when was i going to sleep with him. anyways, dad came up to snap at us that dinner was ready, so, after putting my splint and socks back on, and me saying bye to rainbow, parents FORCED :( me to walk back down the steps. if i had thought i could've let my sore legs plop back into sparky, fat chance. parents FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling table :P where, as pig mum had forgotten to cook the rice, we ate 'fun see', with a few choy sum, a piece of lobok, and a little piece of chicken omelette. i washed that down with a cup of HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. sadly, i can't say it's yummy tonight, coz there was seriously more water than anything. mum explains that itwas coz of the fact that the can is almost finished. oh well, mum then FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky, so my final plodding total for today is now ... 3200. anyways, it's 9pm already, so i think i will read the news then call it a night. not sure how many exercises mum will force me to do tonight, i just pray to percy the angel that it won't be too much. anyways, will see you all again toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

many days post
hi all!, ok, firstly i'd better apologise for not posting for a few days, see, i somehow failed to achieve the PERFECT standards my parents had set for me. so, i'll post about those missed days if i have time to later, but anyways ... today i plodded 1033 steps. not bad, i hope! so ... let's just start off with today: i woke up, did an unspeakable in the pot. :P mum got me kitted up - to be honest, i can't remember what she kindly helped me with and what she forced me to do myself did myself, but when all that was done, mum FORCED :(me to walk out to the kitchen, where she then forced me to get a plastic container, forced me to fill it up with water, and forced me to spit out my mouth splint into it. i decided that it was too late for breakfast, and settled for brunch instead, meaning mum FORCED :( me to walk to the fridge, forced me to open the door, forced me to get the ham and cheese, forced me to shut the door, then FORCED :( me to walk over to the bench. again, i can't really remember what mum kindly did for me and what she forced me to do, but in the end, after being FORCED :( to walk back down to the gobbling table :P i sat down and enjoyed my toasted sandwhich along with a plain glass of milk. all scoffed down, to be honest i can't remember if i read my year 12 graduation book or mum forced me to do more exercises, either way, my favourite comment comes from mrs. cook, " i loved getting your comments on the exam paper, especially when all wa snot well!" lol, i remember drawing sad faces and angry faces, and writing stuff like, " that's so unfair! you're not supposed to put questions that hard on the exam! it's impossible to expect us to be able to answer it! ><" anyways, later in the arvo - ding dong! along came aunty yvonne and jacinta! so, after a bathroom trip, she had me walking up and down the hallway. i mean, the left ankle is quite sore, but at least bearable. my carer for the day came along, what was her name ... ugh, i can't remember it! but she came with jo from coda, who told me it's actually short for "joanne". a quick chat, then jo let us be. anyways:a shower first, hairwash today - phew! i mean, coz i washed it the day b4, i didn't wash it yesterday, but last night - eep! so damned ITCHY! >< i did an unspeakable afterwards, then she - and thanks to mum who's told me that her name actually is 'amanda' - got me redressed. she then transferred me back into sparky, and i tootled over for some arvo tea - my 2nd toasted sandwhich for the day, a pear - amanda declined a slice coz she has braces on - and we both had a cup of hot tea. actually, we both happen to take it the same way:white and 2, so we both enjoyed a cup with 2 teaspoons of honey. anyways, arvo tea all gobbled up, we started a long range of hand exercises - e.g. theraplaydough :P random left and right arm lifting x400 - oops,
anyways, i left for dinner at 7:36pm, and it's now ... 8:52 pm! anyways, dinner tonight - rice (duh :P), some chicken, a small portion of egg, and quite a few choy sum. anyways, i flushed that all down with a HEAVILY - but still heaps yum pear juice! -then i went to watch border security, as dad had for some reason denied me permission to get back online. anyways, i watched it until the force came on, when i came back to try my luck with permission. huh, definitely no luck. instead, dad forced me to do 20 mins - give or take some - of hand exercises, b4 i tootled back online. but for some reason, mum says i had better get off when i finish blogging. dunno why, but oh well. anyways, where was i?
so, amanda promised me a cracker after i had done all my exercises, so i happily chewed that down then we went to play piano, both hands. news time, we settled down to watch 7's 6pm news. once the sport's news was over, i asked her to please take me to the loo, but mum intercepted, saying she would sign the sheet for lisa. so i went to the loo. mum moved sparky far, far away while i was tinkling :P so she could FORCE :( me to walk all the way back to it.
anyways, i've asked when lisa's bday is; apparently she turns 28 or 29 on april 16th, or sth like that, anyway. i am just happy that she'll be coming back toms! though i admit, a bit unfair >< like kerry, she says i'm the ONLY one of her clients/patients that has to do ANY exercise at all. poo poo.
anyways, i'm sure it hasn't been 2hrs yet, but mum wants to kick me off, and besides, i'm tired, so will hopefully see yous all again toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post14
yo! so, i plodded 1984 steps today. a good end to the week, i hope! :)
well, i gotta thank kwany - ANOTHER comment?! haha, i feels loved. oh, and kwany, sorry for posting this entry up 3 times. i swear, i only clicked 'publish post' once! haha, anyways...
dear daddy bear was a happy ted too, coz he'd gotten a kiss from dear dad too! mum dug me up, i went to the bathroom:P then she forced me to put my own knickers and pants on, kindly helping me with the socks, new splint and shoes part.
that all done, she clipped my pedometer onto me - oh, i almost forgot! today, mum FORCED :( me to plod 1985 steps. an ok end to the week, i hope. oh, and the spam count for the week is 180.
so, where was i? right. mum FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she forced me to grab a plastic container, forced me to fill it up with water, and forced me to spit my mouth splint into it. then, she FORCED :( me to walk to the cupboard to get my just wrong :P and FORCED :( me to walk back down to the benchtop to place it down. then, mum forced me to de-lid, pour and re-lid my cereal. i can't really remember, but i chose somewhere between 5 to 10 spoonfuls. last of all, she FORCED :( me to walk back and squat my dot :P(sue's phrase for 'sit down') on a chair, where i ate my cereal. i think mum was hanging up the washing, meanwhile. almost time to go, i decided to use the bathroom once more, so mum got me up and FORCED :( me to walk to the lavatory, as ding dong! leanne arrived. anyways, mum got me up, FORCED :( me to walk the few steps to wash my right hand, then FORCED :( me to walk to the car. leanne piled in as well, and off to goodwill orthopaedics we tootled. mum FORCED :( me to walk inside once we got there, and i sat, reading a gossip mag. leanne picked up one on health, i think. rod soon came to see me, and he whipped away my boot for some modifications. the other guy, i think his name is 'dewet', well, i think that's what he told me, anyways. rod came back, slapped my modified boot on for me. mum promptly yanked me up and FORCED :( me to hobble a few steps. allowed to plop back into the chair, mum then asked rod about a hand splint for me. he pulled one out and stuck it on my left hand - i bet mum was pleased, coz i couldn't stick my thumb into it, no matter how hard i tried. anyways, mum paid some EXORBITANT amount for it - sth like $162.50, or aroundabouts that. time to go, i notified mum that i needed the bathroom. thanks to the receptionist lady who got me a wheelchair and swapped me into it, then rolled me downhill to the amenities. mum helped me onto the loo, then as we finished and were coming out - a surprise! :P turns out the nice lady had sent a man down to push the wheelchair back up for us! thank-you, sir? was his name sth like 'grant'? anyways, mum unloaded me back into the car, leanne piled in too, and off we drove. next destination? kuraby park. mum had a grand old time FORCING :( me to walk all over the place. i had complained of a starved stomach, so mum fed me a lemon and honey soother, hopefully enough to stave off my hungriness.
thankfully, we only had to stay at that park for 20mins or so, b4 it was finally time to plod back to the car and head for lunch!
so we got to pinelands plaza, and promptly had a DREADFUL time of trying to find a car park. by the time we finally got one, it was almost 1pm!so, mum FORCED :( me to walk inside the store, where we took a seat at a table. mum and leanne went to order food. i indicated to leanne that i wanted a 'tori-don'. so mum and leanne came back with tubs of sushi each. thanks to mum who'd also gotten leanne and i a hot green tea to slowly sip (and therefore not singe our tongues. ><) so, mum and leanne started on their sushi, while i waited patiently for my meal. when it came, mum and leanne promptly stole a piece first, each. :P actually, mum pinched some rice too. that's ok. i mean, i had her inari and half of her egg sushi first. anyways, lunch happily eaten, mum FORCED :( to walk back out to the car, where i said my bye and thanks to leanne. dolly came, and piled in too, as mum popped into coles for some grocery shopping. actually, dolly says she'll bring me some butter chicken, one day. hope i'll like, if she remembers! anyways, when mum finished her shopping spree :P she piled in too, and off we tootled to the PA, for my checkup. once there, i was extremely gratefully trandferred back to sparkless, then, as i said i needed the bathroom, mum wheeled me in. a long tinkle later, dolly took over and pushed me to wherever it was that my appointment would be. anyways, both mum and i settled down with a gossip magazine, dolly with a health one. my name was soon called, and mum wheeled me in, dolly waiting outside. i can't remember the name of the doctor who saw us, sorry, but he asked a few questions, banged my joints with his mallet - or whatever the instrument is called - don't worry, but they jerked accordingly - and then wrote me a referal (there's a double letter somewhere in there, i'm pretty certain) to get an MRI. actually, when i first got into his room, he vanished in search of my medical files, and someone came in to inquire as to where he'd gotten to. but, go mum! who answered in flawless mandarin, "he's gone to get her -switch back to english here - medical notes" :P anyways, appointment over, mum/dolly wheeled me to 1 ... whichever letter it was, to get me a appointment. the guy at the counter said he'd mail us the appointment date and time, so we left. by then, it was already time to let dolly go, so we dropped her off at a street, said our byes and thanks, then tootled home. which means i hope that mum remembers to give me a shower tonight - a stinky em is no good! >< so, once home, mum FORCED :( me to walk into the loo for a long tinkle. then she FORCED :( me to walk the few steps to wash my right hand, before FORCING :(me to walk back to sparky, which thankfully wasn't TOO far away. i tootled online, just talking to joshels right now. oh, and i rang dear dad, who's stuck in the city, poor thing. home-time peak hour traffic, i guess.
anyways, me off to send my physios my weekly report, then, if there's time left, to watch my episode of naruto. can't wait! hope to see most of yous at church toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

thursday post14
hi!, ok, me plodded 2639 steps today. ok, i hope?
anyways, a big big thanks to janice for the comment! wow, october is certainly well and truly satisfied - i've not only got this comment from ms. jellybean, but also one from pole plop and TWO from kwany! what can i say ... em feels loved!
so, this morning, both daddy bear and i were happy campers as we both got a kiss from dear dad this morning. but i was happier, coz last night i rang and talked to my beloved grandma, who'd gotten the bday e-card i'd sent aunty florence!
anyways, mum dug me up fairly late in the day - say, after 11am:P. i did an unspeakable :P in the pot - ooh! dear daddy's home!bye! cool - well, mum opened the door, and dad told us to go back inside; he'll be back later. so ... where was i?
oh, back in my room, mum forced me to get my own knickers and trousers on, she slapped my socks, colourful splint and shoes on, clipped my pedometer onto me, and FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen, where she forced me to grab a container, forced me to fill it up with water, and forced me to spit out my mouth splint into it. breakfast time! umm ... what did i have this morning?
actually, i'm just back from the loo. must've been that full glass of water that lisa kindly gave me after the news, when i was thirsty. actually, i got to cheesebob :P mum got me up, all happy that she could FORCE me to walk again, i took 2 steps, screeched, "itai!!!!!!!!!" and plopped myself back into sparky. mum took a look at me, "oh, you forgot to put on your boot." so, thanks to pig mum who got my boot and shoe back on for me. then, she FORCED :( me to walk in for a long tinkle, FORCED :( me to walk to the basin so i could wash and dry my right hand, then mum FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. she's gone for a shower now, and dear dad's whipping up dinner. so, i declined breakfast coz it was already past 11:30. mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the couch, where i watched 7's morning news, then ABC's. actually, i was going to watch SBS's, but they were instead showing some debate between john mccain and barack obama. i'm not american, but if i was? my vote would be for obama.
so, lunch time and thanks to pig mum who'd cooked us yummy, REAL :P hokkien noodles. i swapped a bite with mum, and flushed it down with a cup of plain milk. anyways, mum then forced me on a good 40mins of left hand OT exercises, mainly the ones tricia had written down for us. at 2pm, ding dong! along came gina from abios. she declined mum's offer of a drink, and we sat down for a chat.
oh, and dear dad's calling dinner now, just to pig mum :P so i'd better get going too. time is now ... 7:52pm.
hello again!, 'tis 8:04 pm now, and i've gobbled dinner! thanks to pig mum for cooking yummy fried rice with tomato sauce, and wombok! dad got me a cup of watered-down pear juice afterwards, and i tootled myself back online. so, where was i?
oh, we had a chat with gina. but sad news? she's leaving too, just like claire! >< another one lost to the dark side ... :P anyways, mum had a good whinge about kerry, and while we were talking, ding dong! my carer for the day, lisa - the one with no teeth that smokes, came. anyways, gina wrapped up the conversation with us, and mum FORCED :( me to walk her out. saying our byes, mum then FORCED :( me to walk back to the sofa, where she promptly dakked me for a shower. :P no hair wash today, and i did an unspeakable afterwards :P then, lisa redressed me in socks, new blue splint and shoes, b4 transferring me back to sparky, where i tootled over for some arvo tea. i admit, i was a bit sad to only get ONE slice of cheese in my toasted sandwhich, and only ONE teaspoon of honey in my tea, thus making it a bit tasteless, but oh well. and, a new novelty! lisa cut it into SQUARES for me! i mean, usually i only get rectangles or triangles. so i gobbled my afternoon tea down, then, as it was time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car, and off we tootled. lisa drives a 2004 red holden sth. anyways, on the way, we listened to some compilation of love songs. not bad, although i didn't recognise any. so, once there, lisa wheeled me in, and deposited me to vincent the physio, who said we were early. he had me walk in, delivered one comfy - but BLOODY painful! >< massage, and had me walk back out. lisa was already there, she paid him 50 bucks, he gave her a receipt to give mum, and we said our thanks and byes.
anyways, once home, lisa put me in sparkless, and kindly pushed me into the garage. mum met me at the door, and immediately stopped lisa from pushing me a MILLIMETRE further. she FORCED :( me to walk into the loo, where i parked my bum on the toilet seat for a pee. :P oh, need i say, mum also forced me to yank my daks both down and back up. not too much of a biggie, really. she then FORCED :( me to walk over and wash my right hand, then she FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. we settled down to watch the news, and thanks to mum/lisa who fed a hungry em a cracker. once the news was over, mum decided that it was time to exercise ... again >< and promptly FORCED :( me on a 6 lap plod. actually, lisa took over at the 5th lap, and i was gratefully allowed to plop down back into sparky after 6 laps. so i signed the sheet for her, we said our thanks and byes, then i tootled online. you know the rest.

so, lunch time and thanks to pig mum who'd cooked us yummy, REAL :P hokkien noodles. i swapped a bite with mum, and flushed it down with a cup of plain milk. anyways, mum then forced me on a good 40mins of left hand OT exercises, mainly the ones tricia had written down for us. at 2pm, ding dong! along came gina from abios. she declined mum's offer of a drink, and we sat down for a chat.

actually, i'm just back from the loo. must've been that full glass of water that lisa kindly gave me after the news, when i was thirsty. actually, i got to cheesebob :P mum got me up, all happy that she could FORCE me to walk again, i took 2 steps, screeched, "itai!!!!!!!!!" and plopped myself back into sparky. mum took a look at me, "oh, you forgot to put on your boot." so, thanks to pig mum who got my boot and shoe back on for me. then, she FORCED :( me to walk in for a long tinkle, FORCED :( me to walk to the basin so i could wash and dry my right hand, then mum FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. she's gone for a shower now, and dear dad's whipping up dinner. so, i declined breakfast coz it was already past 11:30. mum FORCED :( me to walk over to the couch, where i watched 7's morning news, then ABC's. actually, i was going to watch SBS's, but they were instead showing some debate between john mccain and barack obama. i'm not american, but if i was? my vote would be for obama.
so, lunch time and thanks to pig mum who'd cooked us yummy, REAL :P hokkien noodles. i swapped a bite with mum, and flushed it down with a cup of plain milk. anyways, mum then forced me on a good 40mins of left hand OT exercises, mainly the ones tricia had written down for us. at 2pm, ding dong! along came gina from abios. she declined mum's offer of a drink, and we sat down for a chat.
oh, and dear dad's calling dinner now, just to pig mum :P so i'd better get going too. time is now ... 7:52pm.
hello again!, 'tis 8:04 pm now, and i've gobbled dinner! thanks to pig mum for cooking yummy fried rice with tomato sauce, and wombok! dad got me a cup of watered-down pear juice afterwards, and i tootled myself back online. so, where was i?
oh, we had a chat with gina. but sad news? she's leaving too, just like claire! >< another one lost to the dark side ... :P anyways, mum had a good whinge about kerry, and while we were talking, ding dong! my carer for the day, lisa - the one with no teeth that smokes, came. anyways, gina wrapped up the conversation with us, and mum FORCED :( me to walk her out. saying our byes, mum then FORCED :( me to walk back to the sofa, where she promptly dakked me for a shower. :P no hair wash today, and i did an unspeakable afterwards :P then, lisa redressed me in socks, old splint and shoes, b4 transferring me back to sparky, where i tootled over for some arvo tea. i admit, i was a bit sad to only get ONE slice of cheese in my toasted sandwhich, and only ONE teaspoon of honey in my tea, thus making it a bit tasteless, but oh well. and, a new novelty! lisa cut it into SQUARES for me! i mean, usually i only get rectangles or triangles. so i gobbled my afternoon tea down, then, as it was time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car, and off we tootled. lisa drives a 2004 red holden sth. anyways, on the way, we listened to some compilation of love songs. not bad, although i didn't recognise any. so, once there, lisa wheeled me in, and deposited me to vincent the physio, who said we were early. he had me walk in, delivered one comfy - but BLOODY painful! >< massage, and had me walk back out. lisa was already there, she paid him 50 bucks, he gave her a receipt to give mum, and we said our thanks and byes.
anyways, once home, lisa put me in sparkless, and kindly pushed me into the garage. mum met me at the door, and immediately stopped lisa from pushing me a MILLIMETRE further. she FORCED :( me to walk into the loo, where i parked my bum on the toilet seat for a pee. :P oh, need i say, mum also forced me to yank my daks both down and back up. not too much of a biggie, really. she then FORCED :( me to walk over and wash my right hand, then she FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky. we settled down to watch the news, and thanks to mum/lisa who fed a hungry em a cracker. once the news was over, mum decided that it was time to exercise ... again >< and promptly FORCED :( me on a 6 lap plod. actually, lisa took over at the 5th lap, and i was gratefully allowed to plop down back into sparky after 6 laps. so i signed the sheet for her, we said our thanks and byes, then i tootled online. you know the rest.
anyways, mee off to read the news then off for an episode of naruto. see you toms!

yo! so, my final plodding count for wednesday is officially 3931. yup, me thinks tis good. so, where was i?
oh yeah. for dinner, i had rice (duh, no surprise there:P), a few choy sum, a bit of fish and a piece of chicken, all washed down with a cup of very yummy! - but HEAVILY watered-down pear juice. i said bye to dear dad who's off to uncle tyrone's to watch the australia v qatar soccer game - hey, that's officially the only word i know that starts with 'q' that isn't followed by a 'u'! and soon, along plodded vincent the physio. he switched me back to sparkless, i showed him my cool new boot, then he took my my shoes and socks and grabbed me a-hobbling, me protesting how incredibly sore my ankle was. but a bit of stupidity on my part - i admit, i lost my balance while hobbling around barefoot with vincent the physio ... and i admit, i lost my balance and fell over. poor pig mum is squashed. >< but she re-inflated herself remarkably quickly :P after that, vincent the physio dragged me on a 4-round circuit of the house, thankfully with socks, splint and shoes reattached. he gave me dad's spatula to hold on to, but sadly denied me permission to hit him. oh well. i admit, the real temptation is to whack poor pig mum with it. HARD. but i'll resist, never fear. anyways, walking done, mum fed him a glass of water, and we said our 'see you toms'.he left, mum FORCED :( me to walk back to sparky, and i tootled back online.
so, not much else to report, really. i'm pretty sure aunty yvonne can't come toms, she's switched to mondays, if i remember correctly. anyways, me just looking forward to house tonight. see you guys toms!

wednesday post14
yo! ok, me plodded 2546 steps today. looking good!
anyways, dear daddy bear was a happy teddy this morning - "i got a kiss from dearest daddy, too." says he.
anyways, i just cuddled him and went back to bed. mum dug me up at a reasonable time. i did an unspeakable :P then mum got me kitted up for the day. actually, she forced me to put my own knickers and socks on. all done, she FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling table, and as i had chosen just wrong :P for breakfast, she FORCED :( me to walk to the cupboard to get it, FORCED :( me to walk to the fridge for the milk, and FORCED :( me to walk back and place those items on the benchtop. oh, and i almost fogot - mum also forced me to get a container, forced me to fill it up with water, and forced me to spit out my mouth splint into it. then, she forced me to spoon my own cereal into a bowl. i usually have 5 spoonfuls, but coz i was a hungry one this morn, :P i decided to go for more. i thought ... "maybe 10." but mum stopped that thought as i started on my 6th spoonful - "that's enough. STOP." she ordered. oh well. anyways, mum then forced me to uncap the bottle of milk, forced me to pour it into my cereal, then forced me to recap. finally, everything all done, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling :P table, where i tucked in on my small bowl of cereal. oh, and today's a blue apron day - the one from aunty anne.
anyways, all gobbled up, mum FORCED :( me to walk to the car, where off to aunty anna's we tootled. once there, mum FORCED :( me to walk inside, where she gave me a gossip mag to read while awaiting my hair chop :P my turn, aunty anna declared that she'd give me a "trendy mushroom/toilet bowl haircut". so, she snipped away, and what can i say - quite good! so, me all done, mum FORED :( me to walk to a nearby chair, saying, "my turn, now." so i read a mag while aunty anna was giving mum a snip - i admit, though, cheeky me called out to aunty anna, "hey aunty, can you please give mum a perm?" :P
anyways, both of us done, mum paid. thanks to aunty anna for only charging me ten bucks - actually, i used to go to her too b4 i got sick - and we said our thanks and byes. we tootled home, listening to westlife, unbreakable CD no. 3 i think. i've said my 3 favourite songs are 'soledad', 'i cry' and 'unbreakable', but i now have a 4th favourite! 'if your heart's not in it'. mum FORCED :( me to walk back inside once we got home, and i parked my behind on the couch to watch 7's morning news and ABC's at midday. too bad - telstra shares are down again - they're like at $4.04! >< anyways, ding dong! dolly arrived. she fed me my lunch first - a yummy toasted tuna with tomato and onion sandwhich with a plain glass of milk. time to go, mum FORCED :( me to walk out to the car, where off to goodwill orthopaedics we trundled, listening to westlife. once there, mum FORCED :( me to walk in, where i rested my bum on a seat and read a gossip mag. nothing really too exciting. anyways, dolly grabbed my left arm for some exercises as a guy - but i've forgotten his name, sorry. sth like devon? - came out with my new boot. i mean, i'm very happy that it does have a bit of the colour blue in it - but where are the tornadoes? o_O lol. anyways, he stuck my foot in, gave it a look-over, took it away, brought it back and stuck it back on. mum promptly FORCED :( me to hobble a few steps in the reception area. good news? - no pain. i mean, last time that happened? long ago. so we thanked the guy. mum paid an exorbitant amount for it - like $400+! - then mum FORCED :( me to walk back out to the car, still listening to westlife.
once home, mum FORCED :( me to walk in, and i plopped myself into a showerchair. mum then forced me to take my socks and shoes off, even though she very kindly gave me a hand with my new boot - i'm not used to those straps yet. so, dolly gave me a nice hot shower - hairwash today - coz i had had a haircut. i did an unspeakable afterwards, then she got me kitted in PJs, transferred me back to sparky, and i tootled over for arvo tea. a yummy toasted cheese sandwhich - of course, i nibbled off all the crusts first - and a cup of hot tea with just a teaspoon of honey, which therefore made it a bit tasteless. see, i prefermine with TWO teaspoons of sweet stuff - be it honey or sugar. but oh well, no complaints there, i mean, i remember when mum used to give poor me less than half. >< and i guess i had better be grateful for the fact that i chose tea, therefore not giving mum the chance to tell my carer to give me a HEAVILY watered-down nesquik, milo or ovaltine.
anyways, i gobbled up my yummy toasted cheese sandwhich - i wonder when mum will see fit to buy me some ham again? - the first half i gobbled up with a few big gulps, while the second i just nibbled at daintily until dolly told me a lil impatiently, "just eat it." :P so i popped it all into my mouth, drained my tea, then mum forced me to do the exercises that tricia had written down for us to do. so mum forced me to do all the leg ones, then dolly took over the left arm ones. when it was time to leave, i signed the sheet for her, and we said our thanks and byes. how cool is this - she's said if she gets to come again - she'll bring me some food! yay, the tummy is happy. :P anyways, she left. mum first went to check the letterbox - no letters. :( aww, and i was hoping to receive a postcard from kylie! ah well, nevermind. soon, i hope! then, mum kindly turned the computer for me b4 she FORCED :( to walk over to sparky, where i tootled online.
anyways, i'm just glad that tonight is house night andice-cream night! :P i'll keep an ear out for funny lines, and tonight, after vincent the physio comes, i'll pop back on to update and finalise my plodding total. two more things :1. dear daddy won't be with us for dinner tonight. i think he's at uncle tyrone's or sth. so will remember to pray to percy the angel to keep him safe. 2. me off to check the news now. 3. thanks to kwany for all the cool p words!see, coz what i do every week is send my physios a weekly report detailing how many steps i've plodded for the week. and since my physio jokingly tells me that we're all plebs, each week i use a different 'p' word, e.g. 'pie' the pleb, 'popcorn' the pleb, etc... ok, hope everyone is having a great week!
cheers,
em. ^^
