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 hope the new tests are all clear 😉

@TAB I'll see if I can find out from him, and let you know, about the English language.

@Decadian In China, those 10 tissue type packs of tissues are commonplace...I wonder why hahaha 😄

Hugs 🙂 🙂 🙂

I'm here @TAB and I'm alive, lol. Thanks for asking.

Hi @Shaz51. Thanks for thinking of me. Have you had a good day?

Hi to @Faith-and-Hope @BlueBells and anyone else who is on here. How is everyone tonight? How was your day?

Had an extremely exhausting day today, after my visit to the psychologist this morning. Not much sleep last night didn't help. Been resting/sleeping since I arrived home. Just finished dinner, Salmon, vegie, fettacine dish. Psychologist visit was a sucess, even though it was draining. Had a "light bulb" moment.

Hi @Former-Member 😏

I'm a bit drained too ... a few short nights catching up on me I think ....

Sounds like your day was overall positive ... and I'm jealous of your dinner .... being more than a little partial to pasta and salmon anything .... yum ❣

Re: Night Shift

I remember that saying, "wash your mouth out with soap", @TAB. Yuck! Usually it was for swearing. I never did though, lol. The language that comes out of kids mouths these days would make the soap business very sucessful. Awful hearing little kids swear.

@Faith-and-Hope early night for you tonight, hopefully. I noticed that you were up with your daughter, 2am the other night/morning, while she did her assignment. Too much pressure on teenagers in high school. The Salmon fettacine was nice. I love fettacine dishes. Has hubby gone away yet?

Hi @Former-Member 🙂

Had a slow but good day, thanks 😉

Soap.....ooooo no, not good, not good at all !!!!

I had a goody-two-shoes sister (14 yrs older than me) ram a cake of soap in my mouth and hold it there, I think I'd said maybe damn or bloody.

I truly thought I was going to expire, couldn't breathe for soap bubbles. Quite terrifying for a primary school kid.

I never swore, did on purpose (against my nature) in her presence as payback for some time.
