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.

@Determined, I hope you like slightly silly 1980's pop music... to fit your day's activities. A boat's not a bad hidey hole.

Haha @Smc 80s music takes me back a ways to the bus ride to school, some of the worst days of my life. Bus ride home used to be the highlight of my day.

On a funny note, bub heard the music playing on my tablet and brought in a bucket and spade and started drumming and singing along with the music.

I found a new little hidey hole that I have wanted to try for a while but only on a rising tide and without children to distract me as it would be very easy to get beached and stuck until the next high tide. I now have a track saved on the chart plotter so can go in with confidence in the future now. It is nice and sheltered from the wind also.

Yes @Former-Member I was given Christmas chocolates & Cuttlefish for my birds (plus a tin of tuna for Jelly cat) - because I'm a frequent (& liked) customer!

Thanks for reminding me.

Lights out for me, good night all 😴

Hoping my big day might be enough for me to actually sleep tonight.
