Over the last few days, my cough and sore throat has gotten neither better nor worse.  I’ve completed my round of antibiotics, so now I’m hoping that I don’t catch something new or that something doesn’t flares up.  I’m still tired.  My daughter seems to have recovered.  My son got worse, so he’s been to the doctors twice and is now on antibiotics.

I have managed to make major progress towards completing my chip.  I may only have three more hours to go, which is good because I’m only seven hours away from maxing out on the PO.  Beyond that, I’ve also completed week 1 of all of my homework.  It feels good to be caught up.  I might even begin to work on one of my project/presentations that is due in a couple of weeks.

Yesterday, one of our bunnies, Serena, died.  It was very sad for my daughter, as it was her bunny.  Serena always had bowel issues and I guess she spent our entire vacation sitting on her butt in poop.  Her butt became infested with maggots who were literally eating her alive.  The vet gave her little chance for survival, so we put her down.  Since our vacation was so short, we opted not to have a bunny sitter this time around.  I guess we should have.  The litter box was not cleaned for three weeks, giving time for maggots to grow.

As of this morning, both of my girls are away.  My daughter is on a mission trip all week and my wife is at a three day teacher’s conference.  This leaves my son and me at home alone to recover.
