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.

@Former-Member Home now and back to work for last couple of days ... holiday was busy and I’m pleased to say we did manage to make it out for that beach walk together 🙂 it was lovely to share an hour together in the middle of the busyness:-)

@Former-Member,

A friend of our Younger Son's offered to help dry dishes after his 18th B'day party (a couple of years ago now). She casually mentioned that she never did it at home because they had a dishwasher. So I made her feel right at home by telling her the one she was drying was an antique, and the one she'd finished just before it was a wedding pressie. 😄 Aren't I lovely? (She finished the job with no mishaps.)

Beach walk sounds lovely @Sophie1.

@Smc Getting assistance with the dishes = 👍

Hi @Shaz51 @Smc @Former-Member and everyone else tonight ... wishing you all a peaceful evening and try to take a moment to do something nice for yourself - even a warm face washer before bed on the face can be just lovely ... any other ideas ??

I have just popped the doona back on our bed as it has been a bit cooler the last couple of nights @Sophie1. Did watch some of Q&A with Mr D but might do a bit of reading.

We had a couple of really hot Summer like days but tonight it's quite cool. Just had my daughter over for dinner so that was nice. Hope you've all had pleasant enough days.
