Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I'm up too @Anony18@Former-Member but shouldn't be. I am tired but head is still messy. How does it feel to be back at home @Former-Member. I noticed that you changed your profile pic. It's a beautiful sketch but a bit sad too. 

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

What are you doing in the morning @Former-Member? Sleep doesn't always offer rest does it when you have bad dreams?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

No @soul its not handy and for the past couple of days ive only been getting about 3hrs a night and thats with strong sleeping tablets.
In the morning ive got to go see my horses and then study and catch up on washing and get the kids ready for school

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Instead of looking at all the things you have to do as a massive list try to tackle one or two things at a time. Then things may appear more manageable. 

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Well I am here to keep you company. Here to listen if you want to open up. If not, we can talk about something else to distract you in the meantime? What are your interests, other than art? 

How come the early start? I have not been the best to be honest, particularly since yesterday evening. Not really in mood to talk about it. Just went to work and had PT. My mind hasn't been the most focus but I think keeping you company will help distract me Smiley Happy

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Have you found other ways to calm you down before you rest? The other day I posted some music that I listen to. Here it is:-

Theres also a breathing technique:-

inhale through your nose for a mental count of four

hold your breath for a count of seven

exhale through your mouth for a count of eight

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I dont think opening up too.much is good. I wouldnt want to send anyone off the scales here 🙂 @Anony18
And besides i dont mind your company

Other than art i like creative writing reading book and learning new things and nature
The early start is for doing the horses and thats at 7am so have to be up at 6 and leave by 6 20 to travel to them as we are getting their hooves trimmed
