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.

Gosh @Shaz51 ... you're keen to head out at that time of the early morning. But the photos prove it was worth it. It looks stunning. In my part of the country, its becoming windy and overcast, with some rain expected later today. I hope we get some rain, its certainly needed.

Shaz, did you pack a thermos and enjoy a drink and something to snack on, while at the beach?

Hi @Shaz51

Those are beautiful pictures and I love the thought of getting up so early and driving an hour to the coast to take photos pre-sunrise

I used to do things like that - I remember when I spent a few days at Phillip Island I got up early and went swimming at Cat-Bay - body surfing in a pretty gentle surf - it's a memory that I think of often and I am so glad I did those things when I could

Thanks for sharing Shaz

"Don't wanna spend my whole life catching my breath
'Cause I've been running 'round and 'round and 'round
And I've got nothing left
There's nothing like a sunset skyline
To let you know you're almost home
So breathe in, and hold tight
I'm coming home tonight"
"I'm Coming Home Tonight" by Sheppard. There's still poets in the world out there. The poetry just gets disguised with a catchy pop riff. 🙂

"Hold tight, I'm coming home tonight" - excellent @Smc

That's much better than "I'm not coming home tonight"...

Hi @Former-Member I'm eating some hot spicy Bhuja mix, that should perk me up a bit...
