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.

I called an old classmate and asked what he was doing.

He replied that he was working on "Aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminum and steel under a constrained environment."

I was impressed. Upon further inquiry, I learned he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife's supervision.

Quick hello to all before I fall in bed.

Have been on my feet and going all day. There is not a part of me not aching so looking forward to a good night sleep.

Bed always feels so much nicer when you've been on your feet all day, enjoy your sleep @Determined

Afternoon all, I'm back! 😄

Got home midnight-ish last night. Not certain which side of midnight because I didn't look at the clock straight away.

Stayed up long enough to leave an absence note for our youngest on the school's computer system. No way was she going to be conscious enough to get there today. Tomorrow will be good enough.

Hope we are all having a nice evening. I'm getting over a cold and am very sleepy. Waiting for a load of washing to finish so I can go to bed 😴

Evening all

Quick pop in before bed.

More relaxed day here today. Quick tidy up this morning before photos, out for lunch (courtesy of the real estate) then shopping tonight.

Back to uni tomorrow. Combo of paid and volunteer work for orientation for 2 days.

Hi @faith1

The hot choc cafe has been a bit quiet over the last few days - few things happening for the regulars.
