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.

@Shaz51 Glad you had a bath.

You got a walk in @Bella1978 Thats good.

I am doing functional exercise atm ... ha ha ... or that is my excuse for being lazy. I did do last nights dishes and I cooked, gardened, mopped and a few loads of washing and kept son a little on track.

The good thing was they were all little bits and I was not overwhelmed so it was good exercise.

ooh, i like that ... functional exercise ... think i'll start using that term from now on 🙂

sounds like you have had a busy day!

i ended up going to my psych to pick up letter, went past officeworks and got an external harddrive (think laptop is dying) and also went to chemist so am pretty chuffed i got those done, especially as i couldnt be bothered doing anything this morning!

it is a nice feeling getting little bits and pieces done as its not so overwhelming. even when i have big tasks to do, i will break them up so theyre not overwhelming. i think it took me over 2 weeks to clean out kitchen cupboards lol ... oh well, they got done and i didnt stress (too much!!)

I feel so much better after being at work and feeling like I contributed. Daughter even had a good day and has gone out to get her eyelashes lifted. I have no idea what that is but she’s out of the house so that’s a positive!
