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.

That’s fabulous news for @Mazarita .... 🎉

I am feeling a bit numb @Bunniekins ..... relocates to our “other city” last night, and this time it’s for a long haul ...... have to do this as the way forward for my family, but my feelings are reeling ...... just can’t think too much about it at the moment. Going to have to take things very gently for a while.

Have started the day with breakfast and coffee .... ✔️✔️

There is a mountain of unpacking waiting for me at “home”.

feeling for you @Faith-and-Hope i hope you find being ver this way not to troubling and can adjust after abit, unpacking can wait. brekky and coffee are a good start

I really enjoy adult colouring in books, very relaxing and distracting
