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.

Perhaps 'Top End Wedding' @outlander. This morning has been busy - took dog for a walk and have done a bit of tidying up in the front garden.

Evening Peoples.

We've had a mixed day. The event has been enjoyable, but there's still "bumpy" stuff going on in the background, so the day was a bit punctuated with phonecalls and finished up a little early.
@Former-Member, I managed a sort of early start dinner too. Cooked a double batch of chicken mince and vegs in stock last night, then added extra veggies and a few Kransky chipolatas to it for tonight's dinner. I figured it could spend the weekend being a kind of perpetual stew. Is tasty... and I can tweak it to be a little bit different each night. 🙂

Hi to anyone coming past here this morning 👋💕☕️

Forum notofications are down this morning (you’re not imagining things, and it’s not just you ..... 🌷) and the Admin team / techies have been contacted.

If anyone is in need of company and or distraction, it might be an idea to congregate around, and stick to, this thread perhaps. It will be easier to “bunch” together that way.

Woo, Hot Choc with Marshmallows @Shaz51 Yes please.

Perhaps the indulgent choc drink will make my notifications work.

I'm flying blind, can't even find most threads.

That's because I use the notifications list to get to threads (usually).

Happy Sunday @Shaz51 & @Adge, up for a cuppa? How was your day?

Hi @Shaz51

Hi @Ali11

I've been very tired, so I haven't achieved much today.

I think some of it is shock, from my latest medical developments.

Locum Dr said to keep an eye on it - if it gets worse (or is a result of the plastic mesh), Dr said I shall have to have further surgery.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi @Adge I know what you mean by 'flying blind' here. I too use the notifications to find my way around. Ive been feeling really lost an isolated all day since about 3am. Finally found my way to Far and Away thread in LE forums, and quite a few others there too.

Oh gosh, that does not sound good, possibly needing further surgery. Hope thats not the case, but if it gets the desired result, then it will be worth it.

Hi also @Faith-and-Hope @Shaz51 @Ali11 @Ali11 @Smc
