I am back!!!!

Can't believe that I have been out of the blogging action for such a long time... well this time has been beyond my human control... I have been left isolated from a lot of essential sites and this is one of them... But all is good... it is a really hot season and I can't wait for the weather to cool down a tad... so much so that I am absolutely not motivated to move out of the comfort of my home.. the mere thought of it and I would curl up on my sofa instead...

Hmmm good way to save money....

life...

Life has been pretty relaxing... so much so that I am wondering how I am going to get back into gear for work next week... Boo hoo hoo I can't believe that the holidays are coming to an end that quickly... How I wish it would be just a tad longer... But all good things must come to an end like it or not... oh well... till the next holidays...

living in the shadow of A(H1N1)

Mother to unborn child

People to people

What's next?

Better hold one's breathe when another person is coughing?

Don't think there is any escaping this new virus in that sense... Oh well keep on living and breathing while continuing to live a normal life...

Wonder whether it would transfer from human to animals though???

bark... bark...bark.... oink...oink... oink???

It is official

I have grown a couple of cm shorter than before my fall...

I am radioactive today due to a scan I had to do (nope I will not be glowing in the dark!)

In certan cases having a b;adder full is not a good look... It blocks the images of the scan...t hen again I had no sensation to answer any call.... being told that one's bladder is huge is not a great feeling either...

long silence

I know it has been a pretty long silence... Well nothing eventful has happened.. Been stuck at home some more and learning to wrok the core muscles in the back and abs... The simple things that we all take forgranted- like walking, standing, sitting, bending....

Oh and this is not written while in Shanghai as blogspot is down at the moment... 

okie back to bed....

Strange Happenings

Well... I have been stuck at home for the past week and a half!

But it being Mother's Day on Sunday got me the first outing in a trusty wheelchair (which Uncle Anthony had the honor of pushing- we were on the road for most of it as it was less bumpy than the footpath) and it felt like a child in a lolly shop... I was so excited and it was a lot of fun to get out of the house to have a meal and I admit I overstretched myself as I went to have hot chocolate as well... I was winded by the end of the night!

Physio on Monday was equally exciting outing wise (tragic but true!) and it felt good to be able to look at things from a sitting position.... It was exhausting working out at physio and am still attempting to learn to do the pelvic tilt properly... Not very good at that at all to say the least and it feels as if anything related to that motion is just about going down another path!

Showers are another highlight of the day! It is even more exciting when the notice for the stoppage of water is in worms and not circulated in all the letter boxes and is instead stuck on the notice board by the lift! So hey presto, I was happily starting my shower this morning and had just shampooed my hair... Tried to turn on the tap but there wasn't a drop of water! Yikes a head full of shampoo is not a good look even for me! So  had to resort to using the emergency bottle of mineral water to rise the shampoo out of my hair!

Wonder what is going to be next? Any ideas?

bed rest

I am officially on 2 weeks of bed rest! Have done 3 days already and it is driving me stir crazy! I am under house arrest and can't find a get out of jail free card or out of my restraining order... It is hard work to stay at home but I have not choice as I landed with a thump on my back over the weekend and fractured my T12 and L1... So rest and let the body heal is the order of the day.... 

All's well that ends well... Till next time....
