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.

@Shaz51

you've been very quiet - hope all is ok - I think about you a lot.

@Former-Member rather a lot on your plate with Mr Darcy at the moment? Mr S is not flash at the moment. Just turned 60 and from his birthday until New Year is the worst time for him.

@Faith-and-Hope too lazy to put this on the cat thread but sure you don't mind reading it here... Nelson was called the c word this morning (not cat) so I know we're in for a bumpy ride. Mr S is devoted to that cat (my cat before I met him) and now he's the only one allowed to feed it. He's taught him to beg for his dinner bowl.. incredible.

@Powderfinger please hang in there, your input means a great deal to many of us xoxox

You guys all rock, and make even the most unbearable days worth getting through.

@SJT63

Thank you for mentioning that. I often get concerned that I'm repeating my trained behaviour and responses that ran rife with my mother for a very long time. Rescuer, fixer, counsellor and so forth.

To have this feedback is a little reassuring. Hang in there.

Afternoon Everyone!

Special day today... first sit-down cuppa in a cafe for months! Whoo hoo!

(Wasn't quite this opulent, but we did head to one that's inside a historic building. Wood panels on the walls, fireplace (with gas fake-log heater, oh well).. nice enough. 🙂 )

I am thankful that I have found ways to manage some of the things I don't do so well. 😁

Gratitude tip: Each time you have to stop at a red light, take the opportunity to be thankful for something.
