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@Faith-and-Hope@Determined@Anony18@Smc

It's been a quiet morning. Just about to go out to lunch with a very good friend. I had a couple of social engagements cancelled this week so this will be my first contact with "real" people for a while.

Hi All

Am thinking my role is now to quietly live as happily as I can, without spending lots of energy on reaching out or work.

Maybe that is just retirement?

Hope all you posters on this thread are Well.

Gorgeous & worthy pup tho @Anony18 Dont take the inadequacy of the outer world as a definition of your worth.

@Spookytookims I have been over this side since I began posting on the forum. Being a carer is a huge & life long part of my experience and identity.

Hi @Appleblossom, also @Faith-and-Hope @Determined @Former-Member @soul @Spookytookims

Appleblossom are you staying for a cuppa this afternoon? I would welcome the company.

Or anyone else who may be about right now. I have just made a pot of tea, is anyone would like to share. And I have just found a set of those lovely old thin china cups. Tea somehow tastes nicer from those. How many of you automatically put the little finger up in the air with these kinds of cups? I think I do it because it wont fit in the hole, and it gets burnt if you dont stick it up.

@soul - that is great. Do enjoy and I hope it makes you feel better

@Determined - Friday's are normally my day dreaming days haha. But today I have been busy with meetings so until now have not really thought about my partner. I know it will come to me. And I will try again to reach out.

@Appleblossom - thanks. I try not to but I have those moments it can get hard and you think what did I do wrong?
