27.12.2025 Saturday - some things find a new home

talking about aging parents and grandparents, and about their recent Bali trip, and about clocking in and working styles, about treating people like adults. They are curious, and we are surprised how well some of our unorthodox ways have worked so well for so long.


No exercise today - but I find out that we sleep and eat better than many of our peers. We were eating a later breakfast which turned into lunch when Ivy and then EH and Sarah joined us, followed by Sean 30 minutes later. I learnt two things from Ivy, who assumed we struggle to sleep and perhaps get the 4 hours that she gets. I was surprised to hear that, I sleep early at 10pm until 530-6am - I wake up without an alarm and usually roll out of bed and go to the gym. I would like to go for a run but those days are not here yet. My ankles are still recovering, they are not recovering soon enough for me, perhaps I am being impatient.

The other thing I learnt was that the PAMSC committee is going to Hoi Ann after their Gala dinner in late January. SC was passing by - and asked if we were all going to Hoi Ann next year - 'no, it's the committee only' was the reply. Some of the committee have worked hard and deserved this, and they must have made loads of money this year, so a trip is a nice culmination of the 2025 term. 

I suggested to Sean that he can test out amah's pots and pans in the man cave, to see if they cook on an induction cooker - if if so - adopt them for his new place. And just like that, the mess in the man cave has been cleared up just a little bit. Work needs to be done consistently and with intent, small steps daily work best.
