Day8 - 03242020

I hope that I am right, today is Tuesday!?
Made pumpkin pancake for someone doesn't like pumpkin.

Recalled: Near the end of 2019 till the beginning of 2020:

Once upon a time...
1). My dad had fever, I took him to the doctor and then I had a fever.
2). My younger one had fever plus diarrhea.
3). My older one had diarrhea, forget did he also had a fever.
4). And then I got sick again
The end.
Pray for safety and health.

Continue cleaning up indoor and outdoor.
Stop beng lazy.

Always want to pray, sing and listen to worship songs during working hours, now I am, except I am not in the office.

Should I be happy or sad due to my laziness of the past, so I can have unending cleaning to do now, no time to depress or panic.

Day7 - 03232020

First Monday I am not feeling Blue but Green! 
Soybean pancakes today, the reason why I made this is because someone dislike my homemade soy milk. 
Tomorrow we will have pumpkin pancakes. 
Plant pumpkin and California poppy today. 

What should do when I retired. 


This year we have bountiful of tangerines. Way more than we need plus we all have to keep social distancing, cannot go to church or work, therefore there is no way that I bring some to share

Each day, lots of the tangerines fall off the tree before I can have time to pick them from the tree.

Picking tangerine from the floor, I thought about the Manna in Exodus, though this tangerine is nothing like the Manna.
Thankful that we have food to eat, a place to live and the family to rely on.

Exodus 16:1-36 


Numbers 11:1-19




Pray for one of the brother and his family from our church, pray for his fully recovering.

day6 - 03222020 Sunday

Second stay home Sunday, pray.
Decided to have food to go today.
A break from eating the food that I cook.
A break for my kitchen.

Scam calls, cannot believe in this critical time, they still keep calling people from all over different places.

Grateful that I have a garden of my own. 
Though I am sore and tired from working in the yard, thankful that I have the strength to go on and not to give up easily.

It rains again this afternoon.

Day5 - 03212020

Now everyday feels like weekend, except there is no Friday fellowship and Sunday church day to go physically.
My alarm is off since, hope that everything goes back to normal schedule again soon.
Shop only when is necessary and locally.

It had been wet and cold for the past couples of days.
This really makes me feel uncomfortable, Thursday night I had a serious headache.

Cook for six days straight, I usually cook Monday to Thursday, Friday eat out with fellowship. Saturday is our family day, we eat out. I don't need to worry about the cooking not even the bill, just relax and enjoy the time together, my older one always treats us.

I thought about ordering food to go, but I prefer to stay home as possible, don’t want someone to deliver the food for me either. Who knows who’s been touching or cooking your food.

Sun bath while weeding the garden.
You get free vitamin D from the sun and the Immune system and mood will be boosted.
Gardening a garden that has not been well maintained for years, is tough. I was showering with sweat, including the eyes.
I am a farmer and gardener.
This year, I have grown some more flowers and vegetables.
And last year because the extremely hot temperature, we did not get to harvest any lemons and tangerines, amazingly this year they grew double the fruits back!
But this year there are couples days of freezing temperature while the apple tree is about to bloom,  all the flowers die, pray for it.
Reward myself with some homemade scallion pancakes, yummy!

Let thank you and appreciation become our lifestyle.

Day3 - 03192020

Accidentally deleted this blog and cannot retreat it, terrible!
Tried to recall what I wrote in this blog!
I give up!

Private Uber Day
Drive my older one to work and the young to his friend's house.

“Sometimes you must HURT in order to KNOW, FALL in order to GROW, LOSE in order to GAIN, because life's greatest lessons are learned through PAIN.”

I will go grocery shop tomorrow or the day after.

Cherish our earth.
Plant tree.
Take care of the garden and watching them grow is therapeutic.
Grow your own fruits or vegetables can save your money and the time and gas to travel to the store.
“Plants can convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen in a process called photosynthes.
Interestingly, in order to maintain their metabolism and continue respiration at night, plants must absorb oxygen from the air and give off carbon dioxide (which is exactly what animals do).
Fortunately for all of us oxygen breathers, plants produce approximately ten times more oxygen during the day that what they consume at night.”

Day4 - 03202020

Private Uber Day
Drive my older one to work and the young to his friend's house.

I used to wish that I can at least write one blog each day.

Today is the fourth day straight that I made it, but was sad about it is fulfilled in this kind of situation.
Pray that everything and everyone will back to the normal life soon.


We had Fruit slush for breakfast.
Pick scallion from our backyard wanted to make Scallion Cake (蔥油餅), made fried rice instead. There is still some scallion left, so maybe we will have Scallion Cake tomorrow.

Went to 99 ranch and 
Aldi for some grocery shopping. At Aldi, the cashier greet to the people (Hispanic) ahead of me, the people (Caucasian) after me, but not a word to me.

Racism, sad, well, it was not the first time.

Continue weeded the garden until I got hurt by the rose throne, then I called it a day.

On the way home, I saw mountains covered with snow again.

Weeded the garden was tiring yet rewarding.

So far so good, well adjust to this lifestyle change.
No grocery shopping maybe tomorrow or the day after.
Starting with some housecleaning today, looking forward for the new look of the house after two weeks.
