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.

☕️

Hey everyone 👋

Glad that arm is improving @soul, but it also sounds like you are highly compliant with the exercise and meds .... well done.

We have had a holiday view of this city @Former-Member ..... so yeah, time to get a bit more practical about finding my way around.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I exercise like a trojan @Faith-and-Hope. I really hate being incapacitated. My daughter has gone away for the weekend and before she left, I asked her to open a can of tuna (ring pull) that I was going to have for dinner with salad (from a bag).

She asked me what I was going to do when she didn't live here anymore (she's moving out next weekend)

Guess, I'll ask a neighbour or do without until I can open it myself.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hmmm ...., can you get her to open a whole bunch of them for you @soul and freeze them in individual small snap-lock bags ..... ?

@soul would one of those devices that open ring pull cans that people with arthritis use be of help?

For anyone suffering due to this horrible heat it's only 126 days until winter ❄️

@Faith-and-Hope it is looking at things through different eyes.

@Shaz51 sounds like it is an ongoing battle with skin lesions for Mr Shaz

I do hope you get adequate sleep tonight @Determined

@Anna88 I would be glad to just see rain, perhaps Shazzle Dazzle can send some south.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Mg darling is getting anxious about rain also @Former-Member, we have plenty of water but having recently come close to running out she is a bit jumpy. I am back to weekly water level checks to boost her confidence.
