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 @NikNik

No, not my teacup in the photo, but it could have been ........ I will keep that thought up my sleeve, and maybe the next one will be one of mine 😌

I have a collection of old teacups I keep in a basket on my sideboard. Every now and then I pull one out for a cup of tea. We didn't live anywhere near either of my grandmothers, but these teacups have come to me from both of them, and landed here in my basket. They are little touchstones to family history that I was barely a part of, but that's okay. We were busy making other memories .......

There has been incredible diversity in my live, and there is incredible diversity amongst these teacups. By that order, I reckon they belong with me anyway 😊

Here's drinking tea, taking the odd strol down a memory lane or two - maybe not very far along some of them - then returning to being in the moment with the nice hot tea ❣

I have some tea cups too - some handed down, some from second hand stores that I love, but never seem to use! I will have to share them with you someday soon!

Hi @Former-Member

I have been thinking about you all day ...

How is the weather over your way tonight ? You were expecting storms for the weekend, weren't you ?

Hi Cherrybomb,
Thinking u all hate me too (ignoring me), daft I know.
Watching the quietest movie ever, "All Is Lost" Robert Redford. Zero dialog, just wind. He's lost at sea on a yacht with serious problems. U seen it?

Waiting for a severe weather system forecast here tomorrow. Got that cyclone feel outside & I'm not even on the coast.

Blew the budget at the grocery store again today. Stupid with rego due. Get sick of baked beans & soup. All the people were walking by like i was in a parallel universe.

How are you?🐦

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Aw @Former-Member, you thinking that we are ignoring you are just thoughts. It's not the reality. I'm certainly not ignoring you. It's hard when those thoughts can seem so real, and then we look for things to validate that thinking. I don't now about you, but I do it. I need to remind myself thinking this way is not good for me, and so I challenge my thinking.

The movie you're watching sounds interesting. I've not seen it. Is it a drama? Sounds good! Will add it my list. Remind me of Samson and Delila - have you seen that? Also, very little to now dialogue.

Hi @Former-Member

I don't know whether you have turned your notifications back on, or if you even want to, but I know decadian responded to you on the LE forum earlier tonight, if you haven't picked that one up, and I believe sad girl left a couple of 'likes' on your birthday thread too.
