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 - saw two new flavours - strawberry and cream in a pink wrapper and salted caramel (can't remember the colour of the foil) Will have to try them for research purposes.

Just enjoying a nice cup of Higher Living Evening Tea - a herbal blend.

@soul suggestion lindt balls on the house tonight - strawberries and cream, salted caramel on offer.

I was at lunch with an old friend and pointed to two elderly ladies across the room and said 'that will be us in 10 years time' she said 'that's a mirror'

@Spookytookims - Well I agree with you about it being a bad tipping round in the AFL, as well as very disappointing performances by our favoured teams. Not only could the mighty Swannies not win, but your Bombers were just as bad. Urgh ............. Next round - to the Red and Whites and Red and Blacks.

Interesting to note though that on the Ladder after 3 rounds, we have what have been the top 3 teams from the previous few years all on the bottom of the ladder .. winless. Ie: Sydney, Hawthorn and North Melbourne. What's happening?

Hello to everyone else here too. Well, its a new week, and I hope you all have a good start to your week and that it continues to get better. @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope @soul @Shaz51 @Smc and anyone else calling in.

This morning I did something I don't normally do - walked through the confectionery aisle at Woolies. Saw another two new flavours of Lindt balls - mango & cream and orange. Picked up the mango ones to give them a try. They were on special after all. Will report back after tasting.

Who mentioned lindt balls @soul .... those or rerrero roche are usually my easter gift from my partner... ok... I'll have to make refernce to mango ones this week.. never seen nor sampled those ones... must be proper new, they don't even seem to be on this list:

@Former-Member re the footy... North and Hawks ripped the souls out of their teams end last year, ie getting rid of Petrie, Boomer and I forget the other one at the moment . And Hawk with their letting Lewis and Mitchell walk, Swans for me haven't been the same since they went all high profile with the Buddster. But Hawks and Swans could still come good, I just can't write either of those two off, they always seem to find a way. So we shall see.

@Former-Member In this instance it was figuratively crying in my hot chocky.. but I have been known to shed real tears... esp ladt year when Bevo handed over his GF medal to Murph. I reckon a lot of peeps were crying then too though. 😛

Hello to @Anony18 and @Smc *waves*
