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 Guys

Hope everyone as had a nice weekend.

I picked up my car yesterday and so happy to have my baby back- I am bit lost without my car.

Today I went shopping- I got new pair of boots, thongs and swim bag. My swim bag I have had for yonks so I thought I mite get something a bit smaller and lighter.

Tomorrow I am going to get my car professionally detailed.

Hiya @Former-Member. Sounds like things are on the upturn for both of us. I had a good day. I have no idea how but today just worked - well except for leaving my phone home with my credit cards in and had a 45 min round trip to get it but that didn't dent my day. Think you've inspired me with your volunteering. If I can hold it together for the next couple of weeks, big ask but worth a try, I might see if I can get into it too. I was going to go back to TAFE but I think volunteering for now would be better as I'm still so unpredictable. I'm glad you got your baby back. Mine could do with much TLC right now but she's a tough old girl and will have to wait. I hope your week is better than the last few💜😊

Re: Night Shift

I've had a great day. Spent a lot of it on the road out to where my family came from but not where I grew up. It was so good to visit old hunting grounds and travel back roads that only locals know. Public roads that are rarely used that are little more than tyre tracks that can appear to peter out if you don't know what tree line to follow. It was a real trip down memory lane.

My oh my, there's been a lot of water out there. Some of the potholes were humungous so I did a lot of weaving all over the road to avoid them. In some spots the tar had disintegrated completely. It made for a slow trip over quite substantial distances. Just wish I'd had my swag and kit with me.
Happy bit tired Kurra 😀🎶

Re: Night Shift

Not sure but thought he meant greater western Sydney @Kurra having a dig at the roads etc. well I laughed at that interpretation anyway but it could have been outer any city I'm guessing.
