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 whoever is around, hope we all kept warm today. The wind has dropped where I am so the cold has been much more bearable. I think I'm still a soft northerner getting used to the cold!

Would you like a coffe then @Former-Member?

Hi @Anna88 Not very cold here, although my back is aching terribly (past few days).

It rained a little bit today, I think the humidity makes it feel warmer.

@Determined Sometimes I think it's better to not know the temperature, it's either cold or hot and I think knowing the actual number can make it worse haha. Hi @Former-Member and @Adge

Morning Peoples. Very cold here. The outside thermometer showed about -4, the inside one was a bit warmer at zero.... Had a busy day yesterday so the woodstove wasn't started, but we do have portable column heaters for the bedrooms. Have been warming up with a hazelnut mocha and a bikkie.
Frost is pretty... ice crystals on leaves and woodchips, starbursts of frost on the car windscreen, even the muddy puddles beside the road have bits of ice sculpture in them, but really, the best part about a cold day like today will be getting that stove up and burning!
