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.

Thanks @Former-Member

I would love that Black Forest Cupcake @Smc Black Forest cake is one of my all-time favourites (next to Cheesecake).

@Adge

Black forest cake = 😀

Cheesecake = 😀

Lemon meringue = 😀

Stepping on the scales after eating all of the above = 😬

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Yes, definitely @Former-Member

Black Forest cake 10/10, Cheesecake 10/10, Lemon Meringue 10/10

Aftereffects of over-eating = 0/10

How is the belly @Adge

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

My belly has not been so good today @Former-Member

Several times a week I have bad gut pain - usually acompanied by urgent trips to the loo.

Not an infection, it's a daily issue - the after-effects of 3 major bowel surgeries (& having everything disconnected for 6 months).

That cuppa looks so decadent @Former-Member

Hi @Adge I am on water, carrot and celery stik tonight to make up for previous misdemeanours. Oops!

But there is the advantage of no cooking or washing up ...

Evening @Former-Member + everyone

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Adge afraid I am one of those terrible people who finds discussion of bodily functions entertaining much to the upset of Mr Darcy when he has had problems with his meds clogging him up (but very pleased the healthy eating program I introduced is managing problem).

@Appleblossom don't mind an all veg meal to balance things out.
