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

Hi @Kurra....

Sending you tonnes of strength.... All the best for managing a difficult & challenging situation.... hugs...

@Appleblossom - thanks - I take B12 - I take it about 3 times a week - it is the one supplement you need to take if you are vegan... I think I do need more vitamin D, but want to try to get that from sunshine now it is getting warmer (although winter weather is taking its time to say goodbye where I live....)

Yes, I was still able to go to yoga despite the lack of sleep - it was an enjoyable, strong, sweaty practice too.

I'm glad you have worked out what works for you!

Hugs @Appleblossom

Namaste,

A

Re: Night Shift

I wish I did know what to say @Kurra ..perhaps just that no one is worth what you are talking about..and no job is worth that either..

Re: Night Shift

Desiderata is a wonderful piece of writing. I have a tendency to speak my truth quietly and clearly. I find people tend to ĺisten more when I do this. I abhor shouting and it's something I do very rarely.
Thanks for your prayers and support @Faith-and-Hope 💕

and sorry if I missed anyone

How is everyone going?

I'm just a bit anxious tonight

Tomorrow applying for some jobs and also thinking of doing some further studies and developing some more skills which will help me get a job. I also have someone coming out to service my water filter tomorrow. I am hoping her comes earlier so I can get down to the pool mid afternoon.
