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.

Hello everyone.

Had a day out with Hubby and Younger Daughter today. It's her birthday, so we made it mostly about her. 🙂

Morning was an outing with our garden club to a historic house and garden in a nearby town, and lunch in their function room. All of us enjoyed that. Daughter had a bit of fun taking photos in choice locations, and a "group selfie" of all of us. She picked out a plant that she liked at their nursery... it's one I've been planning on getting for ages (Hardenbergia) so we've sort of concluded that we're sharing it.

After lunch, she requested an op shop crawl. She got a couple of phone cases, some bedroom bits and pieces, a couple of nice t-shirts, and three pairs of jeans, two of them pre-ripped. I offered several times to mend them for her, but she's flatly refused... 😛

Then we finished up buying bottled drinks and some nice afternoon tea to take out to a bush track. Listened to birds, looked for wildflowers (there weren't many, but the purple native orchids we spotted were pretty) and explored some tracks.

Bit unconventional for a teenager's birthday, but she enjoyed it, so that's all well. 🙂

Hello everyone,

Thank you for inviting me to Hot Chocolate everyone. I really appreciate you making me feel comfortable. I am still struggling with how this works but I will get there in the end.

I have had a good long weekend and hope others have had a similar experience.

Regards

Ghost
