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.

Goodnight @Shaz51 Sleep well, I hope...

Yes, being positive does take a lot of energy (when others aren't).

Efficiency would probably outweigh aesthetics @Adge but have not looked into that aspect as we don't have that option. Would not want a wood heater if we lived in town.

Hello Goodnight everyone.

Bit chilly here. I haven't gotten the wood stove started today, so we're wearing the extra jumpers. On cold days, I walk around looking very well padded with multiple layers of everything. about to go to bed and looking forward to tucking under the warm wooly blankets while listening to the rain happening outside.

Ta @Former-Member. Dinner's running late, so they'd hit the spot!

I've got the wood stove running tonight, plan was to do a roast chicken dinner in it, but it's being too sluggish. At this rate, we'd be eating at midnight, so the chook has been transferred to the electric oven. Vegs are getting a slow start in the wood stove before joining the chook, and the cauli cheese should cook OK on the stovetop.

Not sure why it's being so unresponsive. Maybe it's the lag of the cold metal warming up, as it's been a few weeks since I've run it.
