Unfortunately, my concentration and focus continues to decline this week.
21 December 2025, Sunday: Seth was out camping, so it was just me and my dad who went to get breakfast. We picked up some croissants, a couple of donuts, and a bacon/egg/cheese sandwich from the nearby donut shop, Donut Basket. Did I work? I literally can't remember. I did read some more of Vygotsky and Cognitive Science, though.
22 December 2025, Monday: Tried to wake up early, was somewhat successful. Uncle Thea and his family arrived at 11:30am! Baby Cambo is literally twice his size as he was last year. Good limbs. Had work from about 2:30 to 5:30. Dad had to meet with our realtor, Vincent, and Aunt Kun and Uncle Mike (they knew Vincent's wife, who had recently passed). Work was kind of cold and grating honestly. Aunt Kun and Uncle Mike stopped by, and we talked with my mom about a family friend's daughter who is having a pretty serious health condition right now and is going into surgery early next year. I headed home at 6:15. Aunt Kun and Uncle Mike came over around 7:00, we talked good — got caught up on the winter break, basically. Uncle Bora prepped two hot pots: mild and spicy. That spicy broth looked beautiful and tasted delicious but I decided to play it safe and go for the mild hot pot (also very delicious) with my dad, grandma, and Uncle Mike and Aunt Kun. Peanut butter sauce was surprisingly savory, really competing with my mom's tofu sauce. I didn't eat that well that morning (failed attempt at my Scotts Valley-style loaded oatmeal — just a Costco nut bar, dried persimmon, and blackberry jam with minute oats — no frozen fruit or cream) so I really dug into hot pot that night.
