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.

Evening everyone,

Managed 6 laps at the local park @Faith-and-Hope bit over 3km in 35 min

Didn't make any progress on research for the report I'm working on so guess I'll be working the weekend again to catch up.

7am start for work in the morning. Hoping it is a quiet day so I can finish early to get back onto assesment work.

Good evening @Former-Member@Faith-and-Hope & everyone.

It's "Batten down the hatches" time here (according to RAC).

A severe weather warning for my area tonight - with strong gusty winds, & heavy rain.

I'm only just back from my yoga class, a quick very rushed dinner.

Then I'll curl up in bed & try to ignore the gusty winds & rain (when they arrive)...

Hi @Faith-and-Hope@Determined@Adge... and anyone else watching.

Around for a little bit. We need to get to bed soon. Both Hubby and I have muzzy sore heads.

Hope the weather's gentler than expected Adge, or failing that, that your roof is strong and waterproof. I like hearing the rain and wind if I'm safe and warm inside.

We caught up with my sister for lunch today, which was nice. Haven't had a chance to do that for a while. Nothing fancy- pies at the bakery near her workplace, but hey, the company was good.

Evening @Former-Member

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I like the sound of the rain too @Smc I find it relaxing.

As long as I'm inside, warm & dry.

If I'm out in it, or get soaked right through (as I did months ago), then that's a different story (not relaxing)...

It's already started about 15 minutes ago, sounds heavy alright.

Yes, my roof should be all good, or at least it will get well-tested tonight...

@Determined ... hope your stroll today helps with sleep tonight.

Good evening @Determined

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope re Yoga.

I've been doing 2 classes every week, for 6 & 1/2 years.

Apparently, according to several yoga teachers - that means I'm "dedicated" (hard-core?)...
