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.

☕️

Thank you @soul. Warming up sounds like a good idea. I've been outside checking the garden, and my feet are freezing! Have put on an extra pair of socks...

Yup, I'm back. Nice to be home again.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Not too bad. My Mum's birthday was on Monday, and she had a few visitors as well as me in during the day. The aged care home staff trimmed up the table a little bit for her birthday lunchtime, and I took in a bought cake.
Spent some good time talking with my Dad too. Despite his dementia, if you get onto familiar ground with him, he can hold his own, But it's sad seeing him and Mum drift apart a bit. Mum's not so good at knowing how to talk with him. She seems more comfortable when he's not around, and I think he knows it. 😞
