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.

Ciao everybody

@Former-Member I bought some hankies a few years ago. They are gentler on the nose and the eyes. I still use tissues though ... get well soon.

Happy 4th of July!...

Im in the States so I'm celebrating.

Family gatherings....God I swear, I sometimes wonder if I am living in purgatory.

Its not terrible, but sure as hell isn't exactly fun and enjoyable either.

Hi everyone

Feeling so alone tonight. Daughter came home from work and is off to her boyfriends place. Hubby and son have gone to the movies (boys night) and other son is overseas.

So it's just me and the dog. I have been home all day today trying to stay calm so my BP can go down. Well I don't know if it's working because I am feeling destructive, alone and it's cold and raining.

Hi @BlueBay @plasmo

You're not alone @BlueBay ... you're with us !!

Well .... I had an exciting day .... I cleaned out the fridge !! All sorts of interesting "science experiments" going on in there ....

Big family = big fridge ..... big family keeps dumping stuff in big fridge and not taking stuff back out .... and not labelling their stuff but getting upset if anyone else uses it .... so if nobody knows whose stuff it is it ends up not being used at all ....

And guess who has to come through and clean out all the "science experiments" ... ?? Me .... and D2 who has been left home with me while everyone else is away on holidays .... so we get to clean up the fridge ❎ .... but we also get a clean fridge for the week ✅.

And we have clean-out-the-fridge-soup for dinner tonight (thanks for the idea @BlueBay) made from all the surprise ingredients that were still okay ... and whosever stuff it was .... too bad .... not here to whinge about it 😊

How was your soup @BlueBay ?

Whatcha watchin' @plasmo ?
