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.

Thanks @PeppiPatty

It's the Red-Faced Parrot-Finch, which is my favourite finch.

I've had several of them over the years, but have none at the moment. They're not easily available for bird-keepers.

Yes Adge is a nick-name that I've often been called - along with other nick-names that are not nice.

Hi @Shaz51 Yes I would definitely come to the cafe for a capuccino & maybe some cake...

I'm rather lethargic or exhausted at this end - though I did manage to go & do my grocery shopping, just back a short while ago.

I usually manage to get it done on Saturday (or earlier in the week).

I'm working my way through the iRest book (based on yoga nidra), which is giving me lots of meditation practices to try - & it's giving me something to work towards, when I don't feel capable of much else.

Can I have double waffle cone while you have coffees ?

PLeez?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I don't like shopping either @Shaz51 - there's only me to do it... Unless I can get my cat Jelly or my birds to do it for me.

Yes I know that feeling yuk feeling, I get it a lot...

Yum, Waffles @Appleblossom I would like some too...

I think @soul said she was going to get the iRest book too, but now she's travelling.

The e-book (I got on my phone) is available from Google play store. The paperback can be got (apparently) from Amazon.

It's my yoga teacher who recommended it to me - specifically for my CPTSD (which is what it's tailored for). You don't have to have PTSD for it to be helpful.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Yeah, ta, that works @Faith-and-Hope... but what I'm really hankering for at the moment is some cheese or potato chips. Something with a bit of salt an a bit of substance! Still, I can't complain too much. It's been a gentler prep regime than I was anticipating. Tomorrow will be done with soon enough, and I'll probably be presented with a "celebratory" plate of hospital sandwiches once it's all over. Hope they have some nice fillings... maybe chicken, or good old fashioned egg?
