Night Shift

Night Shift

Since I am awake at 4am I thought I'd start this thread for those of us who have trouble sleeping and might find it helpful to have a place to go to chat. Whatever gets you through the night is alright.

To get the ball rolling, I'll just say that I enjoyed being part of the Topic Tuesday discussion tonight. I wish it was possible for these events to be weekly rather than monthly. Either way, thanks SANE and all the people I've met on here over recent months.

Edited June 2016 and February 2017: Night Shift is now open 24 hours a day. To join in, just click through to the last page of the thread at the top right of this post to get to the latest message.

Edited April 2017 and June 2017: For the sake of better communications between members here, I am adding that this thread is meant to be a caring, kind and gentle place of sharing. Humour is welcome, as long as its not unkindly directed towards other members. Hope your time in this chat thread is rewarding.

PLEEZ dont make me eat mince pies and boiled fruit cake PLEEZ ... I know for some its nostalgic.

My mother could pour in the sugar when it suited her ...

Yeah weird European food and your lucky you are not in a concentration camp ... where the soup has just one carrot in it ... I dont even know what lamb shank soup is ... and a lady was talking about it yesterday

WHEN I had an oven I would do a soup with the bone after I did the roast ... does that count?

I talked cooking on the train into town with a guy who was obviously struggling with his supermarket shopping ... tried to persuade him to make his own soup rather than go to Vinnies soup van ... he was thankful for our chat ...

Re: Night Shift

Sorry @Former-Member. I'm ok today. I felt very surreal,disassociated yesterday. I hadn't slept. My thoughts were on outta control. Last night I slept, broken but slept. It's funny these happenings really knock the wind in my sails. Slows me up. I hope you are well today 🌅😊
