End of a Strange Week

There hasn't been much going on this week work-wise, but in other areas it has been a pretty strange and eventful week. Aside from some personal things I'll just leave personal, there's been all this other stuff, like:

  1. Nick's car needing a major repair, costing about half of what the car itself cost when we bought it back in June. And the dealer isn't helping much, saying it's not their fault and they couldn't have foreseen this catastrophic failure even in what they represented to us as a thorough inspection. Ouch. I called to check on their progress this afternoon, and was told it won't be ready until Tuesday at the earliest, but more likely Wednesday. A week and a half in the shop just adds insult to injury.
  2. A fairly big development in my CASA case, which of course I can't talk about.
  3. Tim went to Nick's for part of the week and is heading to Butler this weekend.
  4. I updated the Columbus North Football website for the new year. The first game of the season is tonight. I'll miss seeing Tim out there, but on the other hand can relax and just enjoy the game without trying to catch every move when he was playing.
It will be strange with Chris the lone child remaining at home. Oh well, at least we should start saving some money on groceries. Maybe not much, though, because Tim hasn't eaten at home pretty much all summer. But the grocery bills haven't seemed to go down much; wonder why?

There's more happening this coming week related to work. That's a very good thing, because I'm ready to actually do some work again. It definitely beats trying to find customers.

regular milk - $1
organic milk - $3

regular eggs - $1.80
organic eggs - $4.50

plus all the stuff that only one person eats.

need i go on?

or maybe it's because i hardly ate at home either. note the lack of good food at home. note that i suspect that never having good food at home throws one's diet out of balance by forcing one to constantly eat elsewhere.
