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.

☕️

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Wherever we have been living across the last 30-odd years has turned into a building site in between being constantly shifted around @outlander. Twice it was as a result of flooding,but the rest has been renovations, extensions, changing things around..... now I can see that it’s all part of his internal cyclone ..... the one that has him travelling east to west and back again every three days .....

Extreme ? Much ?

The art space is beingvtotally shifted around. It went from being a 2 bed rental to being a one bed and one art space not-rental space ...... and now it needs to go back to being a 2 bed plus lounge-area-art-space not-rental space ..... and it’s previous furniture went to a new rental space and this furniture came out of storage ..... but now some of it is going back into storage for new rental space furniture to come back to the not-rental art space ......

Are you dizzy yet ?

And add two adult kids whose environment is supposed to be kept stable so they can recover .....

Pass the tea please ...... ❣️

Sorry @outlander .... had a bit of a spill there.

Just had a baby dragon pick up some printing from my room and have their own spill about not having had proper access to the art space since the start of the year ..... gah !! Face-palm !!

Double strength tea maybe ....

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Morning @outlander, @Faith-and-Hope. I pretty much went to sleep after my "goodnight" message, glad the two of you were together for a cuppa...

"Something stronger" chocolate- I used to love Old Jamacia choc, but it disappeared off the shelves some years ago. My first try of it was when bought a 100g block to share with a friend as part of a sleepover "midnight feast". We cleaned up the block between us.... followed directly by cleaning off a litre of milk. 😄 Rum and raisin choc was a new experience for both of us.
