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.

Gee all these places with Christmas parades.

I feel left out (deprived)...

Santa did come down my street last year - on the back of a truck, with loud music playing.

Maybe we'll get Santa in a sports car, this year...

I doubt you would feel deprived if you saw our local parade @Adge

Well it's the positive intention that counts @Former-Member

Anything that's not loud hooning motorcycles, or blaring party music (next door) - would be a great blessing...

@Former-Member....

No, I haven't tried adding anything more potent than rainwater to the cordial yet. Dunno if making it past the 50 mark quite qualifies me for seniors' moments.

So... instead, we drove in to the nearby "rural city" for a bit of a breeze through a friend's end of year class exhibition, then took advantage of the fact that a local venue that's usually pay-to-enter was having a free entry night, and we went in for a pleasant wander around, made more pleasant by running into some friends who had done likewise.

Oh dear @Shaz51 Hope she is alright, maybe just getting ready.
