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. ^^
