It's been a trying week.

Unexpected changes @ work - new colleague left, new projects coming up, lack of manpower to run the current workload, no replacement as yet for me to train before I leave in 2 weeks' time, management requesting for the 3rd time to ask me to stay on. It's madness.

@ Home - 2nd Grand-Uncle passed away on Tuesday night. Although I was never close to him, it was nonetheless, still a shock to me. Attended the funeral on Thursday night and was stunned when I saw my 2nd Grand-Aunt. She has aged so much.

Among the different kinds of politics in the world, I reckon family politics is the worst. And it irks me every single time when I know there's a problem in the situation and yet, I am not able to do anything about it. Helpless. And I hate that feeling.

And this is the feeling that has accompanied me throughout this week. Absolutely hate it.
