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.

@wibblewobble, when we moved to our regional Vic house in the middle of winter 21-ish years ago, we discovered that the old oil heater had failed... oooh that was a cold winter!

Leftover pasta here for lunch, enhanced with some fresh picked tomatoes and a bit of cheese melted on top. 🙂 Slightly too big serve... feeling very full now.

Going alright thanks Shaz. Cleaned the generator spark plug, and got it working again. An SES crew has been and replaced the sheet of roofing iron. They screwed down the others to make them secure, for which I am very grateful. I was able to get ropes over the roof, but getting up to screw everything down was a bit daunting. That's one job I won't have to do. However, the roofing timbers could use sister timbers to improve strength. That will be another day. At least, for now, the roof is water-resistant (to two metres -as they say on watches)

Hope everyone has a good day.

Best Wishes

HenryX
