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.

Hi @Shaz51

I bought an new DVD yesterday - it's The Book Thief

I have wondered a lot about how ordinary people cope in Germany at that time - I knew this book was written in dangerous times

So I did pause the DVD and made the soup - so much cabbage - okay life alone has unseen advantages - but I used up all the vegies left over from last week

Re: Night Shift

That's ok @TAB I'm often on and off here. I knew everyone would be around somewhere, lol. I just disappeared for a bit to make piklets and a cuppa, on to my 2nd already.😊
What's on your menu tonight?
We often have cats visiting. Our cat is very cute, so she has a few boyfriends, lol. We stopped putting our cat's food on the pergola because they all started to come and help themselves. 😂

@Former-Member. It's ok. I don't expect replies straight away. I know everyone has things to do, plus it's dinner time for people. 😀 Please don't feel you need to reply straight away, any time is fine. 💜

Re: Night Shift

That's ok @Former-Member. 😀
I try not to think about my friend in hospital, sounds awful, but it's too overwhelmingly sad. There's nothing I can do to help her and I can't let it get on top of me. We still chat on facebook. I don't think she'll be around much longer. Hard to believe that she was working not long ago, seemingly ok.
She's interstate, I feel bad that I don't feel strong enough to go and see her. But we can only do what we are capable of. The other friend is a few hours away. I'm hoping to feel well enough soon to visit. Hoping the psychologist will help me get on top. 😀 Haven't been to see one for years.
How has your day been?

They were flash back then, in college. 😀
