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.

An emotional day for me as I head out for a road trip to spread my father's ashes at a special place. I am doing this alone. A day of reflection. Missing him.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@soul Very emotional and reflective, could also explain the extra emotional vulnerability you have been feeling of late. Thoughts with you today.

@Former-Member ooops we are on different sides of the fence today, I rather hope GWS give your boys a lesson. But one thing positive for you, usually tye side I want to win loses, so there ya go!

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Thinking of you @soul .... I know the heartache, having lost the mum I adored many years ago now, and her ashes are in my father's keeping, so I have no graveside to visit. I hope you can fit in a special coffee time or lunch for yourself somewhere along the way today, and call it "in his company" as you sit close with your feelings ....

Big hugs .... 💜💐🌷💕🐬💙 ....

Hi @Spookytookims ..... I am up early cos WH set his alarm for 6am then went back to sleep ... grrr .... after a bad night with his kidney stone .... but that was after he offended me with his behaviour while we were out last night .... grrr grrr .... so I am rather short on compassion. Won't go into details cos it's part of his disordered mindset, and I was up late last night coming to terms with that, so better leave it alone now.

Gonna get dressed and go for a short walk. Catch you later ....
