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.

Morning everyone

until early high school I loved reading books. Now, in my early 60’s, I’m getting back into reading.

I’ve recently bought Keys of the Kingdom series, Wheel of Time series and Artemis Fowl series.

@PeppyPatti hearing how you took a break away from the forums …. I needed that. The part of me that wants to stay active on the forums is gradually getting smaller and smaller. I’m looking forward to reading the newsletter, after that …… time will tell

Re: Night Shift

Good morning @Former-Member @PeppyPatti and anyone else around. yes I stopped reading during high school. Over the last few years I bought a few books, read a few, some untouched. I should get a better set up so can read in bed like I used to in mine camps. bedside light dont have to reach for to turn off and a shelf in bed head to put book if nodding off lol
