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.

Hi @shaz52,

We have serious weather on the way here too, much needed rain, but 250m forecast in some areas is a worry.

Your poor mum, total rest, does that include toilet? What's wrong with her feet? You have your hands full there.

I'm watching dvd too. Working my way through the local library collection as my reception aerial broke.

Enjoying Hot Coco Milk under the doona with my 14yo faithful tenterfield terrier.

Nice to see you here 💜

Hello @Former-Member

The doctors are not sure what is wrong with mums feet, they are very swollen and very sore to walk , so the doctor said to have total rest

my 15 year old cat died yesterday

my Hubby think his anti anxiety medication is losing it`s effectiveness

trying to keep 2 houses going and our small business , it is a bit hard but a step at a time

So I will have a nice cup of Green tea with you

Hope your day was good , so good to see you xx

Hi @Shaz51

That's a lot going on in one week, you poor thing ❣

What was your cat's name ? 15 years was a good long life ........ but sorely missed, I'm sure.

Can I join the Green Tea Brigade ?

What's your DVD @Former-Member ?

I am planning to park up in front of a movie tonight with D3, but I don't know what we will be watching yet.

Hi Guys,
Yep, time for another drink, always up for a green tea. Losing pets can be hard, especially after many years as part of the family. In the last year i lost D1's guinea pig & my old foxy. One left. Really flat tonight, black thoughts. Watched DVD's 'Batman Returns' & now 'Lochness' (Ted Danson), to try lift the mood. Thanks for chat. Sleep well. 💜💙💕

You too @Former-Member. I hope you are feeling better tomorrow.

We have ended up watching some cooking and travel shows. I'm a bit too tired to concentrate on them. Just catching up some of these posts from earlier in the day in the background.

I am having a Jasmine Green Tea. Just the fragrance itself is uplifting.

Have a good rest. Look forward to our morning cuppa @Former-Member. With no school run tomorrow, I might actually get out for a walk .... that's something that got left way behind this week. My feet need to walk, I think.

G'night ❤️

Good morning all 😊

Nice and early here .....

Might start with an English Breakfast Tea, and save He coffee for a walk down to the river a bit later. Anyone else like one ?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Good morning everyone,

Thank goodness it's Friday! What a week it's been. Busy, busy, busy - just way too busy and my brain feels like fuzz.

I'm sorry to hear that you lost your cat @Shaz51. It's never easy to lose an animal that you love. I have a cat going on 19 years old. I think she's trying to break a record or something.

This weekend I'm planning on doing hopefully not very much at all. I need to go through my books and update my library. Now that I'm reading again I've realised that I'm getting behind on getting books from some of my favourite authors. There's nothing like snuggling in a warm blanket and reading a book, with a nice hot cup of chocolate while watching it rain outside. Ahhhh, I like that idea very much.

My little dog is booked in for a massage tomorrow, lucky girl. She did her cruciate ligament at Easter time, had the surgery and is now in the process of mending. We have a long way to go but she's getting there slowly but surely. I want her to be much better before I go on holiday next month so she won't need too much care while I'm gone.

I hope you all have a good, sane and relaxing weekend.

Morning all!

@Kiera80 tea and a good book sounds amazing right now! Looking forward to the weekend.

@Shaz51 I'm so sorry to hear about your cat That must be heartbreaking. Hope you're looking after yourself.

@Faith-and-Hope - I'd love an English Breakfast Tea. Is that a real photo of yours? I love the cup - it's lovely!
