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.

Hi @Former-Member - cute picture and yes I had immense fun. Was laughing so much. I predicted we would not win so was there to try my best and have a great time and get my exercise haha.

@Faith-and-Hope @Determined @Former-Member @Shaz51 @Smc @Appleblossom and everyone else here -HELLO! It is Friday....yay!!!! Got a mani and pedi scheduled tonight. But am a bit annoyed at the moment. I am meant to pick my partner up at the airport tonight. Last week he said roughly 11 something pm and told me the airline but said remind him to send me his itinerary. So remind him a couple times I did. Still no itinerary and no word about his flight time. So I assume to treat his silence as golden and that I am picking him up at that time. Not sure if his anxiety causes him to get overwhelmed that he can't do a simple email or text or if it is a guy thing! Sorry to the guys out there! Am just venting my frustration. Will give him in few hours if I don't hear and just say i be at airport. And when I see him he might get a nice hello and get a lecture from me haha.

@Anony18.. I think it's a guy thing. Mine does that stuff too, all the time, you'll probably hear from him at the last minute. :face_with_rolling_eyes:

@Faith-and-Hopehave a great weekend and drive safely. 💕 🌷

@Former-Member. Well I will likely be watching the cricket with you this afternoon my friend.

With regards to your clipart story, I saw the Part 3 you posted. Looked good to me, but I wondered after your comment to someone else there - how are you meant to read it, if it isnt top to bottom, left to right?



@Former-Member This is the type of feedback I was wanting... thank you! Because I knew what I meant I was looking for how it viewed to others.. now I know that I need to make this clear when I post it and that might help others "interpret" the story. Thank you SO much!

@Former-Member - i think it is because he has done it before. Last week his last minute trip home, only found out that he got a flight literally the day before and would like me pick him from airport. So I took work off the last minute. Lucky for him my work is fairly flexible.

@Former-Member Aussies are more than cruising ... Maxwell about to get his 100... probably shouldn't put the mocker on him 😛 watch him get out now 😛

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Yes @Former-Member, I too am watching the cricket. Got my chai latte here and enjoying it at the same time.

Maxie has got his 100 now. Well done to him. A far better option as all-rounder than that west aussie Mitch Marsh. He he he ... a bit cheeky there, bringing out some interstate rivalry. I supose you are aware that NSW are currently playing WA in the Sheffield Shield?

Hi everyone else.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Oh @Former-Member. Between the pair of us, we must have jinxed Maxie. He is out for 104.

Still, he has done a great job, and did what an all-rounder is meant to do.

Hopefully Smithy can hang about and go on with his innings now, with the support of Wade and 'the tail'.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Former-Member siiigh yes.... well could have been much worse.. he could have got out on 98 or 99

I posted my "story" btw.... I deliberately didn't link to you though because althought it's just clipart some of the pics are emotionally based... if you feel up to it... it's "Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering" on the "other" side.

You read it left to right, line by line as you would a book. So hope that helps with interpreting the story from the images.

I only tagged @Faith-and-Hope and @Appleblossom to it because F&H inspired me to do it and Appleblossom was asking where it was, yesterday.
