What makes me angry today: Waiting!!!

I'm waiting. I dislike waiting. I'm stressed out and I'm hurting.

I am waiting for the family court judge to make a ruling on the temporary custody order hearing that was on the 6th. The judge ended the hearing saying that he would take everything under advisement and mail out the decision. That is what I'm waiting for. I'm waiting for the judge's decision on whether or not I get to see my little boy. (he is 6)

I vote that we start a global movement to force manufacturers to make fireworks sound like something else and that all police sirens and car alarms be lowered in decibels by 50%.

Fire Works should = Splat!....HaHa....Fart noises maybe. something else besides machine guns, 5 inchers, mortars or whatever.

Car alarms should immediately be shot with a 12 gauge.

Nice way to wreck a perfectly good evening that and a drunk call from a friend who wants to talk. f*ck me.

I'm for fart noises. How could that be scary. Unless they include the smell.

Fingers crossed, T^3. Hope for the best. I'm just glad to be looking down at the ground rather than up at it!

Best to everybody

Some days I just wish I was well enough too feel angry. Today has not been one of them. Went to the VA today and they said I guess we should check you out to see if you have any brain injuries as a result of being blown up and crashing aircraft. Imagine that! Injuries from air crashes...say it not true. Bullet proof I am. Must be, I am not dead!!!

So far so good, I get my boy on Wed evenings and Sun afternoons. The court ordered a guardian ad litem to watch over the visitation process. tomorrow will be the first time seeing and talking with my boy since Aug 27th...

So this is a good thing, right?

 

[Bill Simmons]

Yes...not being dead is is kinda cool. I like it at least most days. And yes the other testing they want to do is a good thing I guess, about 40 years too late but....

 

[Sarg]

That seems to be the VA timetable. Look at how long they refused to recognize PTSD.

T^3, have a great day with your son, hope it's a wonderful time for you both.

I agree but I try, I really try not to think about that. It's a real issue for me and probably most 'Nam vets as well. I do go on about it sometimes but it's like a dog trying to catch it's tail. It makes me super angry but without an outlet for it. A therapist once told me that depression is anger turned inward. That kinda' stuck with me. Although every time I have to go to the VA hospital for something I'm reminded of it. Gotta' go there tomorrow, always a fun time. o_O

It's always difficult for me to see so many vets destroyed from serving their country and still having to fight for their 'promised' rights. I'm ranting.
