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.

@Former-Member I was on the Darling Downs for the last few weeks. We did a housesit at Warwick and escaped the last weather that went through! And yes, we're on the coast. We're in Hervey Bay this week. We don't stay anywhere more than a couple of weeks usually.

I like visiting Warwick, I'd love to do what your doing, seeing everything, until i get sick of it i guess. Thinking of replacing my very old broken down camphor cottage with a home on wheels so i can be 'free' Sounds like you have company though which would be better. Would love to hear more about your travels, follow how its done. 💜☕

Hey! there you are @Faith-and-Hope, missed you, how was your w'end? It must be the rain - I'm very 'typative- tonight (just invented a new word), feeling mischievous. Did you submit at an art comp or something? Love to hear about it ☺

@Faith-and-Hope, how did you go with your painting?

Hi @Former-Member

Just talking about this in the Night Shift thread, so doing a re-post of this answer here:

Submitting tomorrow, then I have to wait a week to see if my work has been accepted .....

I'm trying not to think about it too much, and just go with the fact that I am giving it a go. I have the artistic ability ..... it just comes down to whether it has the "it" factor they are looking for.

It's worth it for the experience, and if the piece is accepted it will be on display in their gallery for a while.

If not, it will be shipped back to the west in a fortnight's time.

I've got butterflies ......

@artee

Just reading about your flooding woes ..... hope you're okay ❣

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Darling Downs' is not a suburb, town or city, its a massive region with dozens of towns & the state's largest inland city, not unlike the vast 'coast'. Thanks Mods, I'm aware of the guidelines and would not ask or give identifiable info.
