Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

@Faith-and-Hope yep have moved in and finished most of my unpacking, I love my new house and job. Have seen lots more of my extended family and the southern weather is very nice, so all very positive so far 🙂 funny how life changes so quickly and how humans just somehow adapt

I went to get my hair cut today - at the hairdressers, who calls my grey hair "wisdom hairs"....

They were closed (they're usually open on Sunday).

I shear Mr D's hair once a month @Adge, he too is getting wise. Once when he was a bit hype he did get some men's hair colour.

Colouring your hair is a good idea (if you want to do it) @Former-Member

For some strange reason, men usually don't.

Except young men, with blue, green or purple hair (I've seen lots of those)...

I've used clippers to cut my own hair a few times - but I cannot see the back (to neaten it properly), so maybe not such a good idea...

On another note @Adge how is that cat of yours?

She's "Dr Jekyll & Mrs Hyde" @Former-Member

Seemingly cuddly & friendly one moment - then majorly destructive (shredding documents etc), especially when I'm out at work.

That's when her name becomes "Destructo cat"...

I think it's (maybe) "How dare you go away & leave me", so "I'll teach you not to leave me alone"...

I usually do my own hair @Adge @Former-Member,

There was one time about 3 days later my darling announces ... o by the way you missed a bit ...

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

That's excellent @Determined

I have no-one to check my hair, so if I cut it myself (again), I could go around for weeks with the back looking weird...
