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.

Hi @PeppiPatty .....

I had iPad trouble last night, after a big day out with Christmas shopping n stuff .... fell asleep early so I missed your post ....

Down south will be amazingly green at this time of year .... enjoy ❣

Who's up for coffee ? 😊☕️

I'm tired and unmotivated to walk this morning .... might just make it to the coffee shop and back .... listen to my body and not do an over-ride ....

So much to do around here in the next couple of weeks, so I have made a plan for today .... and walled myself off from thinking further than that. Today's tasks are a simple putting-one-foot-in-front-of-another .... so if I actually do it it's gonna result in a lot of achievement by the end of the day.

🌷💜

How are you going @Former-Member @Anony18 @kiki @Former-Member @Decadian @Shaz51 @pip @Tiggeroo

Hi @Faith-and-Hope

Been busy. Cousin down from overseas so been entertaining her. Just about pop over to a friend's to feed her cat whilst she is down south before a busy day of taking her around. It's gonna be a hot one today!

Hi @Faith-and-Hope

Golly, Christmas stuff....I think we are just gonna do the usual.....get a pile of 5 dolla and 10 dolla....notes and put them in envelopes and put poetry on the envelopes and give them to my son slowly during the day.........

last year I wrote things like ... " Be honest...." and stuff like that but this year I want to write all of Keats poetry on the envelopes ....

It is a little like that.. you write "Today's tasks are a simple putting-one-foot-in-front-of-another......

Ive brought down 4 magazines to finish puzzles in, they were originally bought to kick start my husband into using his brain, he still halps at night but it's me that addicted....

handsewing my oldest son a quilt for his bed.

cleaning my FIL home....

writing my book.....

I got the ides from a TAke 5 magazine I think ....

We found a church to get to tomorrow.....

I'm pretty upset, a friend I've known all my life lives down here and I went to see her and she was so rude to me......I'm feeling slowly slowly, the freindship is melting away in the past couple of years.......

hope you have a good day.....good to read that your positive in your thoughts,

@PeppiPatty @Shaz51

That's terrible !! You must be glad you don't have to carry those people forward, but it is a shame for the good times you had previously. Some people change, or their values are not the same as yours in some areas, and you don't know it until something happens to cause a clash or a drift ....

May they be replaced in your life by nicer others ....
