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.

I can appreciate just how pleasant it can be to have a day off. Despite what he thinks it will be good for WH too.... you know. ..... bringing him back to the fold.
Take care. I hope all goes well for your Dad.
Sleep is closing in so I'll stop writing now.

Re: Night Shift

That's great @plasmo Being able to walk through the bush is so much better than through the streets.
I've got to try sleeping again. I'm not too successful atm.

@Faith-and-Hope not really, it's been a lot of work lately. i'm glad when i can get away from it a bit. this probably makes no sense though 🙂

@plasmo

Yeah it does ..... I'm a painter ......

I love the work when I am painting it, but since my last big piece I have taken a couple of month's break.

When there is too much going on, you need some brain space, right ?

Dozng off a bit .... might say goodnight now ....

Re: Night Shift

Well I'm still awake @plasmo
I'm in bed too but sleep has run away from home.....If I haven't got to sleep by 3.45 I'm going to get up and start my day.
As long as I get some sleep at least I'll know I'm not going off the planet.
At least you should be nice and warm in bed.
