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.

Re: Night Shift

Sorry guys I've been watching this amazing curved house being built in Tassie...Ahh I do get creative types! Hi @Former-Member, good to see u back.
@Shaz51, doing great today, how about u?
@TAB, yep a smile is a good thing. Costs nothing! 😊...I'm not sure what happened with your job etc ...I think it's hard keeping up with everyone.
I I think that doesn't matter to much, it's just nice fleeting back through, a bit like raiding your mums pantry when u go home! 😁

Hi @Former-Member, @Former-Member

it sounds interesting about the house @Former-Member. I used to love watching grand designs. How goes you and your tribe?

just read your last post @Former-Member. Things seem good. Any idea when you hit that surfboard again. Have you heard from your brother?

Re: Night Shift

Hi @Former-Member 🙂

I've never understood it, as I grew up with "bathroom" where the bath and/or shower was, and the toilet (no idea why they call it Water Closet on plans) as a separate 'room'.

When my Yankified sis visited a few years back, by golly she got rubbished a bit 😄

It was also explained to her that Aussies don't 'go to the toilet in the bath" hahahahaha

Worst I heard was someone saying they had to stop on a trip for the dog to use the bathroom. 'sigh'

hugs 🙂 🙂 🙂

Enjoy your night out @TAB

Hi @Former-Member How was your day? Mine was ok, but just had a huge upset with someone. Oh my gosh! Just near bed time (not with hubby or daughter). Just had to take more anti anxiety meds. I hate taking them. I feel devastated again, hate this.

Hehe! @BlueBells Our toilet isn't even in our bathroom. So, if a Canadian or American asks for our bathroom, that's exactly what they will get.

Re: Night Shift

@Former-Member hahaha I'm so wanting to do the same thing. 😄

There are so many names for a toilet...loo, dunny, outhouse (we actually had one before the town got sewerage system) ....but somehow, bathroom sounds so wrong hahahaha

One of my school friends called it the twinkle parlour. I like that 😉
