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.

☕️

Very nice @PeppyPatti Re: the thouPouring Iced Chocolate over someone.

I'm glad you have a sense of humour.

@Oaktree @Former-Member @Shaz51

How am I ?

Well I've been in quite a bit of pain for the past 48 hours (thanks for asking).

I've had a bad Flare up of Diverticular Disease, or Iritable Bowel Syndrome, or both (as I have both).

Rather painful, very unpleasant.

It's slowly easing.

Tomorrow is my 2nd Gardening Work Shift (probably Hot Weather) - Not sure how I will manage work, with this gut pain & feeling so very tired.

Thanks.

How have you been?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Oh wow @Adge

I have had crippling diverticulitis and so has my partner, Mr Rocker - yes, yes, the exhaustion has been a nightmare.

 fortunate I don't work anymore but at last I have 4 quilts ready to go to the quilter's - I am going to sell 2 online on an Etsy store.

My tiredness is getting so bad I'm going to my GP about hormone replacement therapy.

I'm trying to eat a banana a day because Mr Rocker went to hospital because of diverticulitis and they gave him a potassium drip and he said it was painful and I hate pain so I thought we better up our banana eating.

Tossing water over some people may relieve some crankiness but not wasting a good hot chocolate!

@PeppyPatti @Adge @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope @Oak

Loved that room pic you posted. Yes let's party there.

I have been a bit busy

Life is like liquorice allsorts more than a box of chocolates for me. .. sweet chewy

Soft hard... salty.

Love to share dark chocolate ice creams all round.

Lots of pain. Don't want to be a downer

Determined to be feistier in my old age.

Love to you all

Hey @PeppyPatti @Former-Member @Shaz51 @Faith-and-Hope

it’s been a couple busy days. A bit of stress on the roads getting around but the days were pretty good.

I hope you all had a decent weekend.
