Well, this week has been a blur. This is mainly due to days spent mainly on research. I have a new “project”. It may fail. It is another shrine site. In between I am trying to finish up my other sites and do all the other daily routine things. I have given so many tasks to myself that I am not having trouble remembering or simply lack the time to do all of them.

Sigh.

Anyway, somewhere in this week the rat finally died as it had been caught by the trap. We only came to this conclusion when flies suddenly infested the house. My mother of course sent my brother to rid the house of it. I remember very little else for the week.

Last night my mother came into my room to rant out all of her problems. They regard my eldest brother and my sister. This is nothing new, so I doubt I’ll go into it. Her third problem dealt with her dog. It is not so much a problem anymore I think, but she did get a bit upset over a phone call she had with the woman who sold him to her. The woman said that at the age he is now, for him to still be running around like he is on speed gives indication that he will likely stay that way. Therefore, our yard is dead for good.

Sigh… um… This morning my mother noted her joint account checks are used up, so she only has about three hundred dollars in usable money through her private account. Therefore she will be shopping for groceries sparingly today. I suppose I’ll go on as normal and likely add in cleaning supplies I usually do not get to my list.

Oh yeah, despite the strong connection and it having the speed of 11 Mbps, the Internet is horrendously slow and often loads not a page the first time. I am getting off now.
