Sushiboy Status

I've not posted for a couple of weeks. Life has been a little crazy around the Sushiboy residence.

Superwoman was in a car accident, somebody ran a stop sign and and t-boned her. Superwoman has whiplash and her back muscles are out of whack causing her hip to be misaligned and one leg be "longer" than the other. (aka her hip is shifted so its right part is further down than the left) This is painful and will require some physical therapy (also painful), but there shouldn't be any permanent damage. I'm grateful that she is ok and that no one else was in our car (if my son were with her his legs would probably be pretty smashed up). Prayers on her behalf would be welcome.

Our car is totaled, we have been shopping for a new one and found out how much we can afford, it isn't much. In the process of car shopping we seem to have picked up some colds. Superwoman was pretty sick for a couple of days but is pretty much over it. (Thank the heavens, she has had enough to deal with already) I, on the other hand, am about as sick as I have ever been. I've been out of commission, missing school and work, all week. I finally seem to be on the mend, although I'm still pretty sick (most of the week my cold has just been getting worse, improvement of any sort is heartening).

On the upside we had a fun valentines day. The kids enjoyed exchanging valentines at their preschools, and Cakes (my daughter) thought so much of my valentine to her that she hung it on her door. (It was a store bought card with an aristocat kitten that I thought that she would like) That tugged on my heartstrings. Cookie Monster and Superwoman enjoyed their cards too I think, and the kids loved the heart shaped pizza that we had for dinner.

Hope all of you had a safe and enjoyable Valentines Day.

hugs and prayers coming your way.

I'm glad the Mrs. was okay, to some extent.

I hope the household gets rid of all the germs but until the kids are out of the house and not dealing with all the kid/germs at school, you're gonna be sick for the rest of their days in the house. Sorry.

Good luck with car shopping. Most of us can only afford bicycles.

Oh gosh! Everyone get better soon!! Many prayers for Superwomans recovery and a new car.

I FINALLY did a Friday Field Trip today!

Superwoman claims to have a boring life, but that sounds exciting (though not in a good way). I'm glad she's doing okay and wasn't more seriously hurt.

Both of you get better soon!

All- thanks for your kind words/hugs/thoughts/prayers

Teri- Germs and school kids. I've decided kids are really just small little incubators. (x'cept for my kids :) they are cute little germ incubators)

Amy - Great I can't wait to read your FFT!

Nobody - No kidding, she should start her own blog. I'd read it.

Tug - Thanks for the Hugs!

Bob said...

That settles it. Superwoman should immediately start a blog. I know I would read it, and I'm sure Mrs Nobody would read it too. I expect it to be online when I return from my trip Sunday evening :)

Scarlet said...

My thoughts are with you all and wishing SuperW a speedy recovery back to her superhuman capacity.

Heart shaped pizza? LOL. Is that so all the fatty goodness knows where to go and give those arteries a "hug"?

Mel said...

Wow, so sorry about the accident! Superwoman should start a blog :)

The flu has been everywhere here but so far I have managed to avoid it.

Jen said...

that sucks
hope she's feeling better!

Just Dave said...

I'm sending prayers along with Teri. Hope the guy had decent insurance but you never get enough to replace your car, it seems. I hope things work out well.

Lisita said...

I agree that Mrs. Superwoman should start a blog. Tell her Lisa sends well wishes her way.

Sushi, please pass my thoughts and wishes to SuperWoman for a speedy recovery. I hope your health continues to improve, and you can return to your beloved studies...

I hope you are all feeling better soon! Poor SuperWoman - the PT will be painful - tell her to take some pain meds before her appointments!
