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.

@Spookytookims - wow, what a list. Looks like I'll have to do a bit of searching. I can highly recommend the stracciatella ones (cookies and creams for those not in the know) Had them at Christmas time.

Enjoy your family day @Determined

IT geek: I don't think you even know what a hard drive is
Determined: I've driven cross country with my wife, 3 kids and 2 dogs. I know what a hard drive is.

LoL @Former-Member
A few years ago it would not have been a problrm.
Back then 1500km in a day towing a caravan was just warming up. I used to complain thw fuel tank was not big enough and we had to make too many stops for refueling. Now the little people are a bit bigger and my patience and energy levels have expired its not so easy.
I still enjoy the drive, juat find it more draining now..

Instead of eye spy you could do chocky flavours for each letter of the alphabet @Determined

Safe trip @Determined. 1500km in one day - that is beast mode.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Former-Member lol @ Hard drive joke! hahaha very witty

@Determined 7 hours drive for 2 hours with family then 7 hours back? That's huge! I reckon Darcy's chocolate eye spy idea is a beauty for you, by the way. 😛 and very jealous you have tried the mango lindt balls before I have. Not happy Jan! 😞 *pouting*

@soul yes that's quite a list isn't it? I've had a variety pack before but never quite that much variety in it! Aren't they just the super smoothest little balls off yum yums... I could go on... but it might sound a bit risque so I'll stop! Getting into the nope not going there eyebrow raise territory thingo whatsit. suffice as to say.... they are just sooooo delish!! Absolutey hanging out to try a mango one.

Hey there @Former-Member @Anony18 and @Smc
