Life-size statue of Dosan Ahn Chang-ho who was considered by many to be one of the the key moral and philosophical leaders of Korea during the 20th century. He lived in Riverside for a while and this memorial to him is in downtown Riverside. Lately it seems as if my ability to concentrate and sit still for more than five minutes is gone. I pick up a book or magazine and then remember something else I should be doing - I start that and then think of another item that needs attending to and though I'm not yet talking to myself I'm definitely scattered. So, I picked up the DS Lite and Brain Age game to refocus but I really think the problem is to just get better organized and prioritize. Hmm, still a work in progress.

DH is doing a little better today, no leaking problems though he still tires easily. The iron supplement doesn't agree with him so I'm giving him the iron he needs in the form of food - not difficult since just one serving of malt-o-meal gives him 60% of his daily requirement. It is almost four weeks since his bladder and prostate were removed and though he gets impatient with his progress, I think he's doing very well. One pleasant surprise? I enjoy working outdoors and nothing has died.

Grandson just received an Employee of the Month award and a $25.00 bonus. Now if I can only get him to clean his room!
