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.

Went OK @Shaz51 lunch out yesterday followed by coffee with friends. Today our usual routine, a friend made a sponge cake for Mr D but it sank, rolled up today with a trifle for him ... hr had it for tea (big lunch today).

Hi @Shaz51 That sounds like a nice show, although I don't fancy getting home at 12.20am...

I can't do late night driving, I get far too wonky.

Hi @Shaz51, really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your Saturday evening. It does sound like lots of fun. You and your Mum are real 'stop outs' arent you?

And well done on the bingo, with you all winning prizes .. an unexpected bonus to end the weekend.

Hi to everyone else.

The sponge cake sank? @Former-Member I guess it might. I haven't made a cake in ages. I don't eat much sweets at all.

My back, arms & all my joints are so sore (for 2 or 3 days) - I don't know why, I haven't done anything terribly strenuous.

I thought of getting a massage over the weekend, but I didn't want to spend the money.

Finances have been very tight for a long time, & even tighter these last few months.

Hi @Former-Member loved how you snuck Holly into the hospital.

@Adge where I live I am told (and I believe is no trifling matter) pavlova and sponge cakes will always fail if there is an easterly breeze. Anyhow, Mr D enjoyed the dessert which he ate in one sitting.
