Looking for late night chat friends

I am on a great med for my depression, but the downside is it keeps me up really late and I get bored being the only one up, so I end up binging on cheese and nuts and the like, while watching old shows on Hulu.
Anyone else have trouble with night eating and want to be support/motivation buddies? I am a mom of 2 boys and I love cooking and competitive reality TV (like Survivor or Amazing race). I am a big dog lover and a proud collie-ma as well (yes, that is a Temple of Doom joke - I am a total cornball!)
Anyway, hoping to find a friend or two who can help me keep on track. Peace!

What time zone are you in? (Asking for the general audience, not for chatting purposes. )1

Because it's mid-morning where I am. Is it nighttime there?0

USA Eastern time zone. Sorry about that!!!0

And . . . I am the only one awake. AGAIN. Resisting the urge to eat cheese and such. Watching Sabrina on Netflix - had no idea season 2 dropped! Yay!0
-
well, not the ONLY one!

It is difficult to be up late.... the boredom of watching tv makes me get up and act like a starving grizzly bear rummaging through the refrigerator!

I know, right wakeccurn? I am fighting it for now.0

Not bad, thanks. Got everyone's lunches ready for tomorrow and I didn't lick any knives or sample anything to make sure it isnt poison - lol! Cleaned all the dishes and got the coffee set up.
I could probably fold towels during Sabrins to keep my hands busy. If I was inclined to be even more industrious. Haha!
How are you doing @wakeccurn ?0 -
Doing well... Just got back on MFP after giving up on it a while ago... I have never been much of an online person. I hear that Sabrina is pretty good. How old are your kids?

My son is graduating with his Bachelors in Computer Science May 3! I am so excited for him0

My boys are six and eight. My older son has ADHD and autism, so every day is a challenge. He is high-functioning, very smart, but very socially backward. He doesn't pick up on social queues, which can get frustrating.
Sabrina is campy fun. Dark, but fun at the same time. I liked Sabrina comics as a kid and was stoked when I heard Netflix was making a series. I enjoy it much more than the Riverdale series based loosely on Archue comics.0 -
@wakeccurn is your husband wearing a kilt in your pic? My husband wore his tartan for our wedding!0
-
I dated a woman who had a high functioning autistic daughter... I bet it can be quite frustrating. But we care for our babies (regardless of age!) I wasn't a fan of Archie comics but I will be getting around to the Sabrina series soon. Have you ever watched "This is Us"?

lol... Yes I am wearing a kilt...0

LOL0

We got married a year and a half ago...0
-
Oops, sorry! Darn me for making assumptions!
Lol!
Awesome attire! Love the kilt! And congrats on a year and a half! We are now almost 18 years. Our anniversary is Cinco de Mayo. My dream is to fit back into my wedding dress by 20.0 -
I hear This Is Us is amazing, but I havent startex it yet. One of these days I will get around to it! I swear!0
-
I'm working a double and will be up till 8 am tonight. So... hows life, etc.0
-
@wakeccurn what do you like to do, i.e. hobbies?0
-
I believe you can do it! No problem on the assumption! lol My first marriage was 27 years when my ex had her mid-life crisis.. It was a rough time but I came out much better this time around!0
-
My family came from Edinburgh on my mom's side...0
-
My husband"s family is from Ayreshire. Came to America on the 1850s. I think. Mine came from central and southern Europe (Italy, Germany, and Poland, mostly) during the great immigrant influx in the early 1900s0
-
cool! My wife's family is Pennsylvania Dutch! lol I am heading to bed... I have to get up early for work.0
-
I was having a bit of a midlife crisis before I got sick last year. I dyed my hair blue, now purple, listened to a lot of music, and made friends with a wild, crazy chick who was also having a crisis. After about 6 months of going off the rails, I came to my senses and am grateful he was patient with me.0
-
I am happy you finding love again!0
-
I just realized I missed some questions! lol My hobbies are reading, playing the guitar, hiking, white-water rafting, some kayaking.... love movies (just saw Shazam and while the previews sucked, the movie was pretty good!)0
