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, I saw the storm warnings in the news and was wondering if any of our "up north" members would be affected. Glad to hear the power's back and you're OK. (I'm also among thosee "unimpressed" with the practice of phone and internet being linked with the NBN. Natural disasters are the most likely time to have a power outage, and then the mobile towers overload too.)

Hi @Former-Member @Shaz51 @Smc

How are you all.

Trying to convince myself here that is is not too hot to mow.

Silly me put the mower at the back of the shed so I have to move 2 motorbikes a narrow and some boxes before I can get to it. That all sounds harder than the mowing itself lol.

Oh and I probably should change into more suitable clothes.. darling does not appreciate me being out in the yard in nice clothes lol.

Mr Darcy is out mowing @Determined. Relaxation is difficult for him. I must admit having to move things to get to things used regularly in the shed really gets my goat. Don't mind it so much for things used rarely.

Once shed is better organised jt wont be as big a problem @Former-Member. At least one more dump run in there yet and a some final boxes for the house when I get around to finding a suitable bookshelf.

I just realized also that we are almost out of fuel 😐. Not sure if I am brave enough to venture out again today.
