Hopefully getting an network extender

I have no idea what that is, but from what I have been told it's meant to widen the range of an internet signal. Meaning I can be further away from an internet signal and still be able to receive it. This is a good thing and it sounds great that we might just get one, along with a new USB adapter that I hope to get in the coming days. Only problem is this, my father. He's always thinking with his wallet and if something is in his eyes as too expensive, he won't budge. This is for everything, from our internet to our groceries to my health.

I'm not kidding. I was sick for almost a week a while back, hacking and coughing, I thought I was going to vomit up my lungs. All I could do was either stay in bed or actually be awake and be on the computer, this is before the internet started fizzing out mind you. And he thought I was fibbing the whole thing! Not one mention of taking me to the doctor, and when it was mentioned he would give a sharp no.

"The doctor is too expensive, I'm not wasting money on her. She probably isn't even that sick." So he says...

Then he gives me cold suppressants thinking it's medicine and that it'll make me feel better. Mind you, this is stuff they have been forcing down my throat since I was 6. I never took the children's stuff, I was given the harsh adult stuff that tasted well....like NiteQuil...I've been given the stuff so much that it no longer has any effect on me.

Wait...I was talking about the internet..sorry about that..

Anywho, no progress yet to whether or not the internet is going to get better. My dad has no intention of spending 90$ on an extender that will make surfing the web easier for all of us. He has no intention of spending a lot of money on anything as I've just ranted to you above....

Well, I'll wrap it up here...my hash browns are ready...

'Til next time.
