Had a dream of mom…woke up crying.

Ok, it’s a boy!

Just a quick update.

This was actually taken back in June when the girls were having their dance recital…

This is what I drugged myself daily before I go to sleep…

…another only 6 more months to go…and yes, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

Isn’t it awesome?  Every food I take, I get to enjoy them twice… 

Once, when they go in; and 2nd time, when they come out of where they went in.

Not only that I get to enjoy them twice, I donate 90% of them to the great Pomona sewer system during the day, and Chino Hills sewer system at night. 

Speaking of recycling, I would vote for myself to be the Trouper of this recycling world….

Al Gore should be ashamed of wasting all the energy & power in making his Live Earth Concert when he can not even do half  1/10th of what I do. 

A.A.A.D.D.

---

Recently, I was diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D. -
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.

This is how it manifests:

I decide to water my garden.

As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide my car needs washing.

As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier.

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.

I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table, and notice that the can is full.

So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage first.

But then I think, since I’m going to be near the mailbox when I take out the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.

I take my checkbook off the table, and see that there is only one check left.

My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk, where I find the can of Coke that I had been drinking.

I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke aside so that I don’t accidentally knock it over. I realize the Coke is getting warm, and I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.

As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye–they need to be watered.

I set the Coke down on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses that I’ve been searching for all morning.

I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I’m going to water the flowers.

I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water, and suddenly I spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I’ll water the flowers.

I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.

So, I set the remote back down on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill.

Then I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.

At the end of the day:
the driveway is flooded,
the car isn’t washed,
the bills aren’t paid,
there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter,
there is still only one check in my check book,
I can’t find the remote,
I can’t find my glasses,
and I don’t remember what I did with the car keys.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I’m really baffled, because I know I was busy all day long, and I’m really tired.

I realize this is a serious problem, and I’ll try to get some help for it, but first I’ll check my e-mail.

Do me a favor, will you? Forward this message to everyone you know, because I don’t remember who I have sent it to.

Don’t laugh — if this isn’t you yet, your day is coming!

Anyone remember the SushiChefBoy Eric Takahashi, a very good brother from HOC’s original old folks group?  Few years ago we sent him off to NY for culinary school, then he began to work at one of the top 4 restaurants in NYC.  Now, he is working for The Modern restaurants in NY, and once a while he shows up in Iron Chef America! 

Anyhow, Eric is in Iron Chef America this week again.  He is one of the sous chef for Iron Chef Cat Cora in Food Network this week.  Below is the schedule of the show.  Don’t forget to cheer for him!
