evening randoms and a couple of questions

[Deleted]

How is he not himself? Do you think he is depressed? How's his rehab going? Is he in counseling? That was a pretty major trauma to go through. Lots of people get deposed after traumas like that ( or even some PTSD?).

Suesue, that post was all over the damn place.

I am finally reading GoT.  We are also simultaneously watching the first season again.  This is a very awesome experience, reading the plot and then watching it right afterward.  

I hope everything goes well with your DS.

My right foot feels broken across the top. it really hurts to walk. 

When zombies decompose, do they eventually just decompose altogether, and then that's the end of them so if we can just last long enough for them to rot on their feet we'd all be ok when the zombie apocalypse comes? Like, we just have to have food enough to last till the zombies rot, right? I'm always thinking, you know. 

I'm worried about ds2. He's not himself. Dear god, let your holy angels guard my child, night and day, from thoughts and deeds that would harm him. 

I am getting things done at work finally. It feels good to complete things. 

I'm writing a short book and I've found out how to get it self published on Amazon. YAYYY It's started, it's moving along. 

I am doing one thing a day to get the house looking better. It's killing me, but I'm doing it. 

I have to come up with 1200 extra dollars by Friday, HELLLP It'll come in, I'm just ancy. This has been a shockingly expensive month (28k out of pocket after taxes) 

I miss my little boys, I want my babies back, it is so hard to let them go. 

Sue, you & your boys are always in my prayers. Always. I always ask the angels and saints and God to watch over those we love and care for and to protect them from any harm.  It's how our priest ends Mass before the final blessing and I just like the way it sounds so I use it too.

Is there anything ELSE you've checked off your "to do" list???

Hmmmmmmm??

Tell me tomorrow. I'm going to bed.

He will be ok Sue. My brother was hit by a car as a teenager (slightly younger than your son) and it was also very serious. He was not himself for some time; it's a difficult age for boys as it is without traumatic accidents. I think there was definitely a bit of depression at play. It took a little while but my brother came out of it eventually. Your DS will too, just keep an eye on him.

<3, Sue. I think what's going on is that now that he's physically better, he is going to have to really work through this mentally. You are seriously such an amazing and supportive mom. Please don't forget that. Be kind to yourself and lean on us when you need to.

Re: zombies, because I know this one!!!!!

The thing about zombies is, unless the temp is just right, a zombie invasion would be short lived. Too hot, and they'd decompose too quickly. Too cold and they'd suffer longer rigor, or in weather like we're having now, freeze altogether and be really easy to destroy. So yes, all you'd have to do is wait them out. The rules of decomp are simple and finite, to quote Elle Woods.

Sue, he sounds like he's now going through what you went through after his accident. PTSD. I'm glad he's talking to somebody. How have you been feeling?

It sounds like you may have a stress fracture. They are hard to see on an Xray. Ice it!

Do you think you'd smell the zombies long before you actually see them? That would give you some time to get out of dodge!

[fuckyourcouch]

If zombies come, I'm just gonna lay down and die. I'm too lazy for that shit, and I am not made to go without showering or AC/central heat.

Its a randoms thread yo.


Sue I am thinking about you lovely!

[pantsparty]

Hugs, sue sue. I hope your son feels better soon, but I have to imagine it's hard not to be able to fix it.

[WOT?*]

My alternate zombie theory is that there is a leader zombie and once he's (re)dead the rest descend into chaos and just die. Kill the leader and the rest will follow.

Do you think your foot might be plantar fascitis? I started doing foot stretches after my bout, usually in the shower. Also, rolling my foot on a round roller helped too.

DS2 will get through this. My DS2 wrapped his dad's '67 Cougar around a telephone pole and he had a total freak-out one night when he was following me to the ferry at night in the rain. Scared the shit out of him. DH and I bought him a new car because the one his dad was letting him drive was a POS and *I* had flashbacks of him losing control and crashing so I could only imagine what was running through his head. Your DS has a good start, a good mom and a good counselor to help him get through and he will eventually come out on the other side. And even at his age, I'm sure he's willing to put up with a little hair petting from mom once in a while, if only to make *you* feel better. (((sue)))

Getting old is the suck.
