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

@Glisten if I wasn't doing well I'd be wanting you in my corner. Your friend is lucky to have you.

I hope the bronchitis leaves you soon. Very soon. Yesterday in fact.

I have had a snotty nose that then decides it wants to be a blood nose. I've had more blood noses the past 12 months than I'd had in 55 years. Ridiculous.

I'm sure the Peanut Gallery is with me when I say you are missed here as well. It's not the same without you.

I finally went to Funnings on the weekend and got 2 more plants and pots, now I just have to pot them.

Miss you Tomaatti 🫂🍅

Re: Night Shift

@TAB @Bill16 I have been looking for the posts you've tagged me in and can't locate them. Possibly a site error, probably more an I D 10 T error.

Hope y'all are doing well.

Re: Night Shift

Cookies and cream connoisseur ice creams… lol @Cuddlebear

glad you can manage some cooking with a little help. The fellow I mentioned does cook too, but when he is at festival, we are all spoiled. A friend walks him around and helps manage his instruments, so he can participate fully. He is bloody good, and manages complex classical stuff by ear.

I put cloves and healthy herbs and spices and lots veggies with the beef in soup as son is sick. We had lemon and ginger tea with it.

Re: Night Shift

@Appleblossom The dinner of beef soup sounds so delicious. I like lots of different herbs etc too gives very good flavour. Home made soup is very good for the soul and body. I hope your son heals very quickly lots of colds going around this winter plus the covid flu.

I had chicken with two different Greek salads and now some camomile tea. Very soothing that tea.
