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.

☕️

Doesn’t sound strange at all @Shaz51 ..... it’s more about what is possible I guess.

I am about to have half my family on the east coast, and the other half on the west coast ..... but one of them is unwell and needing support, and you can only do what you can do .....

Hugs Hon ....

Howdy @Appleblossom @YTT yep things do feel stinky at times.
Lovely to hear from you @soul I pop in every now and then to your post and catch up on your news 😞
@Shaz51 it doesn't sound strange, wanting to be closer to help the ones we love.

Not strange @Shaz51, makes perfect sense you want to be able to help family, 😊

@Determined hope you only get big rain drops and not hail !!

My husband left on a 4 day work trip very early this morning. He drove the car to a train station and left it there (we are on a rural line and a lot of times there are no connecting trains early or on public holidays). Before lunch I caught the train to pick it up, went to do a bit of shopping but most shops were closed.

I didn't want to go home so went to a local lookout and just sat, it was cool and peaceful.

Sigh 4 long boring days (I work at a school so I'm on holidays).
