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.

Much better day today peeps. It helps having the main perpetrator off work today. I've even got a real smile on my dial 😀 Have a good one!

My D3 has for a special dress-up day at school today .... and she's up, dressed, and ready, just a little bit late ....

This is part of what tells me she's gonna be okay .... she's a mix of a bit unwell, and a bit playing up .... hard to work out the boundary between the two ....

4 more weeks .....

Re: Night Shift

Sorry @Kurra, stupid phone!

@Faith-and-Hope, yes I think sometimes I become lost in parenting!
It's easier to ride the wave as the flow goes.😊

Hi @Former-Member yum donuts I hope it was ok, and, well there's good worry, and just 'worry' .. it can help to think about things, just depends how much and whether it helps or not

Re: Night Shift

fronting up is the main thing, and you did that @Kurra think about the good day and perhaps re visit the bad one over the weekend if you have it off ..could anything have 'gone down' differently??..

Re: Night Shift
