Lost Season Premiere, Other Stuff

Ackk! I just realized that the long awaited "Lost" season premiere is on the same night as the ALS Research 101 seminar, Thursday Jan 31! So, here's what we'll do...we'll tape the premiere and plan for a "Lost" Party at Peggy's the next night, Friday Feb 1, for all of us who miss the premiere. What do you think?

Thank you to those of you who registered yesterday...keep it up. We want to shoot for 100 registrants! So please spread the word to friends, family, and those in the medical community. Let's show them some of our famous Aloha Spirit!

Lisa, Karen, and I took down the Christmas tree yesterday and started putting away all the Christmas stuff. Yay! It feels so much better in the living room. You'll see our holiday graveyard in the front yard - we have a pile of rotting pumpkins and Christmas tree parts. Eric will be disposing of it all soon. We're getting ready for the New Year of the Rat!

Lisa has been working some 12 hour shifts lately (she's nuts). Lolo has been spending some time with Lehua before Lehua and Carlos move to Alabama :(

Peggy's brother, JP Richard, is arriving today. He's staying in Waikiki and will be by tomorrow (Saturday) to visit. Then we're planning on dinner at the house on Sunday night. Peggy's very excited to see him.

As you know, Magda has finished the Father Damien painting which is the base for the mosaic. We sent it off to our friends at Print Logic to have it scanned. They just finished it and so we'll be picking it up and bringing it back to the attic so that Magda can start working on the final stage - the application of all those little mosaic pieces that the children worked so hard on.

Elroy will be taking a trip February 2 through February 8. He will be going to Washington again as a guest of the ALS Association Advocacy Department to represent Peggy and Hawaii's ALS community! Go Elroy! He'll be coming back through San Francisco where he will be able to spend a day or so with his sister and family. We're not sure who will manage the trash while he's away. We're excepting applications for substitute trash manager so that Elroy can select a suitable replacement and begin training.
