Morning @Former-Member 😊

I'll have that cup of tea with you.

I'm going to get up and go for a riverside walk this morning.  The clouds have cleared, but it's still a cold day.  I think it will be lovely.

Almost 10.30 and I'd love a nice creamy hot chocolate!

None here, will have to be virtual. At our newest housesit - we went from one to another yesterday. Hubby pretended he understood the feeding instructions for the animals but has proved he took in none of them. He had absolutely no idea. He couldn't remember the electric fence was on either, or how to get from here back to the main road - we've stayed here before, and another property down the road a bit both earlier this year 😞

Oooooh .... I would love a hot chocolate 😊 thanks @artee

Just picked you up on the Night Shift post .... sorry you've got hubby-troubles at the moment.  Good that you're hanging out here a bit .... I have found it good for the soul ❣

Some of the posts on LE forum are a bit raw, but they're actually talking things out and finding a lot of common experience ... a big value of the forums ... and you can feel the care and camaraderie happening.  Helps us all through.

I woke up to the offer of hot chocolate but at this time at this time of the morning I feel like peppermint tea made from fresh leaves from the garden. Too cold to venture out and would need a torch anyway. I am new to being a carer and am finding the transition from work to full time caring a challenge. Wandering down the virtual pathways to a have a cuppa with you lot has been.helping me regain a sense of humour. Thanks for the company

Just saw this post shaz51, it's nearly 5am but have been up and down all night , just can't sleep and have a seven hour drive ahead of me to make soon so naturally I have already hit the caffeine!!!! Lol Hope all ok with you ?

Good morning @Karren

So .... we can do Peppermint Tea too .... 😊

Giod morning too @JessicaRabbit

I saw you over on the LE forum just now ....

As you can see above, there are some carers who are up through the night, so we created this virtual coffee-shop as a virtual all-night drop in for anyone who is awake .... that's not to say that we don't have drop-ins during the day as well.

There is a thread on LE called Night Shift that works the same way, but many of the mi sufferers have sleep issues, so that's a more well-worn track ..... some carers also battle mi, and there is much sharing of advice and support both ways for those who are up to it, bearing in mind that mi sufferers can have triggers for mood change or flashbacks, so we have to remain mindful, more so on the LE side ....

On this side of the forum the focus is essentially two-fold I think .... looking for some kind of common experience so you know you are not alone ..... and the critical need to develop self-care skills and time-outs to recharge your own batteries.  You are obviously very awake to both ...... no pun intended there ...

Welcome to the coffee shop .... hope to "see" you around 😊🌷
