A QUICK GLIMPSE:

Okay, getting caught up here. Last week HieRan was out of town, so I donned my cape and became SuperDad!! Jacob didn't really let me sleep that much, although Mia was super helpful all week long.

The heat has gone down (thank goodness), so we've been able to go to the park and play outside without worrying about how badly we're going to cook. Had a couple play-dates for Mia.

On Friday we spent about 3-1/2 hours on the freeway driving a total distance of about 60 miles. This was basically our trip to LAX to pick up HieRan on a Friday afternoon. =) The kids were surprisingly pleasant - I, on the other hand, couldn't BELIEVE how bad the traffic was! *arrrrggghhh!!*

Dad is arriving at the end of the month from the Philippines. I hadn't heard from him in a while and all my worries were confirmed when I discovered he had been in the hospital. He's better now, and will be joining us on the 25th.

A long distant cousin of mine had been trying to reach me. When I finally got hold of him, he said he had some LA Dodger tickets he wanted to unload... sorry man, I'm an A's fan! *hahaha* Okay, I'm not a huge baseball fan... that's the sport where everyone is trying to go Home, right? You get 4 balls *haha - funny* and then you take a walk. It's good to "steal", but bad to be "out". Too many rules to follow...

I'm excited about the final week of Final Fu! I'm addicted to watching Hell's Kitchen. I've also been tuning into TLC's "Flip that House" - a program dedicated to showing how real estate investors buy, fix, and sell properties for some nice profits.

What else have I been doing? Well... as you can see my thoughts (much like my life) is all over the place! =S Still lots to do before dad arrives. But this weekend we're heading up to Squaw Creek Resort in Lake Tahoe for HieRan's company retreat. Hopefully we'll be able to relax a bit with the kids.

I'll get back to it after a few hours of sleep.
