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.

This is our virtual cafe where we meet for more social chats.

@Sophie1 Did I see somewhere your cat was at the vet? @Adge how is Jelly cat?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Former-Member yes my cat had an ongoing ear infection so we had to get more drops and some new ear cleaning stuff - really need to get on top of it

Jelly cat wants to stay outside most of each day now @Former-Member

She's busy wooing those tomcats, they seem to come here from all directions.

Jelly has looked very roughed up a few times - I think she's getting too close to those tomcats.

She was more social when an inside cat (that's rather sad).

But I do have a lot less behavioural problems, since she's been spending most time outside.

I hope I got rid of those womping rats - they found their way back into the walls, a few weeks ago.

Hi @Shaz51

I got sunburnt yesterday 35 C (with sunscreen on).

I'm hoping today is cooler.

I'm hoping that I got rid of those womping rats, in my wall.

If not, I shall have to go up into the roof & bait again.

One of my drawers (cabinet) collapsed & fell apart.

I'm having to clear out a huge pile of receipts & documents - before I can see if I can glue it back together again.

I don't want to do it, but I need that drawer....

How have you been today?

hugs @Adge

How have you been today? -- well we mowed a couple of lawns today

went food shopping for us and mum

and we have lost some mowing jobs due to community services taking them away from us

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Not the rats again @Adge, any chance of directing your feisty feline's attention away from the toms towards rattus rattus?

In response to: Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I would love it if my feisty feline went for the rattus @Former-Member

Instead, I think she's having too much fun doing other things.

My Dad once told me that when they had mice in the house (35 years ago) - he said to Megsie puss "You're not doing your job".

Then Megs promptly brought back several mice, that she caught...
