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 a bit of royal cake for ourselves might be in order @Smc

Better bring out the good china too. 🙂

@Smc sounds like you're well on the way, good idea salvaging building materials. My 'studio' has a rubble floor with a concrete scree on it. I'm looking at quotes for a floor tiler as I'd like an interior finish, I think it will transform the space. Keep it up!

Thanks for sharing @Adge it's beaut. I can recommend Gerry Rafferty - an artist from the same era, but perhaps not as upbeat. Also definitely George Harrison's solo stuff.

@Bezak482, well on the way with the planning and "hunter gatherer" stage. 🙂 Actual building start date has eluded this burnt out carer for way to long. Which is why I'm taking encouragement from what we have been able to tackle lately.

@Smc can start small and the little things (as you've said 'hunter gatherer') offer as much enjoyment as the actual building. I had a lot of fun today raking the leaves off the driveway - 'rake-i' therapy 🙂
