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.

@Faith-and-Hope

Urm... I'm vague-ish... big weekend, and I'm tired. But it was mostly a good weekend. Spent Saturday at our local Agricultural Show, then a BBQ at church in the evening, lunch out after church on Sunday (big church anniversary weekend) and late afternoon with some friends whose son got married on Saturday, and they invited us to an informal post wedding drinks and lunch. (No, we didn't actually eat two lunches..!) So while it was pleasant spending lots of time with friends, I think I "overdosed" a little. Was incredibly exhausted last night, and looking forward to a quiet day today.

@Faith-and-Hope morning. I have to log out, phone us almost flat. Time to take it to nurses station to charge. I'll know later this morning if I'm able to go back to respite centre or other outcome. I'm not looking forward to seeing drs. I would rather just go home. I'm no safer in hospital than out.

I hope you're doing alright this morning. 🌸🌼💮🏵️🌺

I'm going to use @Smc's word and say that I am vague-ish too @Sans911 ...... just feeling a bit vacant, but okay.

Hope the news is good re the respite centre .....

Big hugs ....... ♥️

When you can @Sans911 ...... buy yourself a recharge battery. You can plug that in at the nurse's station and use your phone's recharge cord to recharge the phone with that wherever you are ......

They are really handy. I am using one all the time so I don't have to leave my phone at a wall socket somewhere. Use it for my iPad too.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Good morning everyone Definitely an iced coffee day here in Melbourne today.

@Smc @Determined @Former-Member @Adge and other new faces, it’s nice to meet you. I was a more regular face around the Forums before going on maternity leave a year ago. I have come back to less days in the Help Centre but will be around the place a couple of times a week. It’s great to be back and I’m looking forward to getting to know the many new faces.

@Faith-and-Hope and @Shaz51, it’s great to see you again, still being your wonderful caring and supportive selves! I have definitely come back to a much busier Forum so have been reading lots of posts, but haven’t been as social as I would have liked. Thank you for the little reminder about that in recent days
