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 @Shaz51

So .... some good news and some not-so-good news over your way ....

I hope you get to rest up a bit during the day sometimes to help you get over the broken nights of sleep.

How is the weather over your way today ?

No dolphins this morning, but there was sunshine, so the river was all sparkly ....

Hi @Shaz51 and @Former-Member if you're around ...

My first task of the day was to take my D3 to school .... but she has been working pretty hard over the last few days to set herself up not to go back on this first day after the holidays .... and she's pretty much achieved it ...

We went to the GP yesterday, who put her onto antibiotics because she is at the tail end of a cold - which she has been doing everything within her power to extend - and is a bit flemmy .... it might have been a preventative measure too ... to make sure she couldn't use it to stay home from school ... but then she had a migraine come on by dinner time last night. The fact that she text me asking me to bring her some dinner anyway leaves me a bit suspicious about whether it's a migraine or just a bit of a headache but excuse enough ...

In any case, I am not going to be able to get her to school today. The GP also gave us a referral to a psychologist that the school counsellor has recommended, just to help walk her through this last term of school to get her graduated. I am so glad !! I need the psupychologist for her, because I am running out of strength to cope with this ...

Have wedding stuff to do with D1 this morning too. Can't let what is happening with WH and D3 take away from her life plans ....

All baby steps for me today. Hope to get S2's 21st invitations into the mail .... cos that is still not under control .. but it will all happen eventually, even if it's not in the best style.

Better go and call the school counsellor 😏
