Don't blame yourself for those things that were happened in the past. 旧梦不须记....[/quote]

I know, blaming myself cant change anything at all. I always envy those who brought their mums out for train rides, holidays etc.

Another bright day and I feel that the sun rises very early nowadays.

My laundry is having its sun tan happily

No point looking back at what might have been. I'm sure there were good reasons for your actions, and your mum appreciated your time with her, whether overseas or locally.

I have hardly ever travelled with my parents since I was still a student and living at home. My parents travelled a lot while I was working or busy with kids, and we avoided travelling with them anyway as we are too different in our likes and dislikes, and standard of living. Occasionally we would meet overseas somewhere for them to spend time with our kids and for us to have a break as a couple. Now they are in the 80s, and they have pretty much stopped travelling.

Related to Healthier SG:

\"However, illnesses such as flu, which Mr Khong’s wife sought treatment for at a GP clinic, are episodic acute conditions, not meant to be covered under Healthier SG.\"

I gathered that polyclinics may be still a better option for common illnesses.

That can't be true - it's getting towards the winter solstice! It's just the contrast with some of the cloudy mornings recently. But it's nice to see the sun, though I will find it too hot later on. I have to roast veg for a roasted veg salad (potluck dinner tonight).

I feel very busy, and looking forward to Monday when it's back to normal pace. The 2-day course on Gen AI was interesting, but really tiring (Zoom for hours each day!). Last night was entertaining - opening event at the Sg Writer's Festival, and I will be going to another couple of events tomorrow. I can't make it for today's as I have other things on, which is a pity, as a couple of them sound quite interesting.

haha slmkhoo, i prepared the ingredients for today's lunch and dinner too.

For me, Dec is coming and time to review this and that, including my finances and insurance plans.

There are days when even at 7am, the sky is still dim unlike these few days when the sky is bright by 7am.

DH also mentioned that he noticed the sun seems to rise earlier than usual by 10-15mins for the past two months.

Yesterday morning when I went to the toilet, it was already very bright outside, seemed like 7am+. Gave me a shock because I thought we all overslept. DD1 was supposed to reach sch by 7.30am for her A level exam. I quickly went to look at the clock, it was only 6.40am (5mins before my alarm clock was supposed to go off)

Yes, when I see the sky so bright, I thought quite \"late\" only to realise it is just 7am+.
So am not alone to feel it.

Anyway, I like long days and the brightness of the sky cheers me ...

Sounds strange - probably due to cloud and haze effects earlier in the year. Technically (disregarding the effects of clouds, rain, haze, etc), the longest day of the year (earliest sunrise and latest sunset) is 20/21 June, and the shortest day is 20/21Dec. The days when the daylight and night hours are equal are 20/21 March and 20/21 Sep. So from mid-June to mid-Dec, the days should be getting gradually shorter!
