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.

@Former-Member

You just made me giggle ....

Does this mean BPD is going to be one of my WH's diagnoses .... ??

If you search for the definition of black and white thinking, a picture of him will probably be the first thing that comes up on the screen !!

Re: Night Shift

Sounds fabulous 2.5 acres of bush, just a nice size block of land @Pinkeye. Enough to have some bush but not too much to look after. Is it all indigenous to the area? I have a kelpie who is like my child and goes everywhere with me.

You never know what you may uncover @Faith-and-Hope. The funny thing was I though that I only thought in grey until my last psychologist told me I'm the opposite. Now I see it and sometimes see the amusing part like just then😊 I

@Faith-and-Hope do you know what your D3 will do next year when there is no more school? My son has made one day this week. Says he's done with school and wants to go to TAFE. Hopefully I'll be with it to take him tomorrow to work out options

Hi @Pinkeye

2.5 acres sounds great.

I might get involved in the regent honey eater project .. done a few things here and there ... there was a Littlre River Earth Sanctuary project that was fenced and tried to keep out ferals .. .. but mostly I manage the land in my court ... gotta ring council to take down a dying shrub.

time for me to go too

Night @Appleblossom. Sleep well😊💜😴

Re: Night Shift

Yes to the best of my ability. I weed out the things that shouldn't be there. I even have a meander of a creek on my western boundary... it keeps me alive. My dogs are bitzers .. one is old, a rescue dog shepherd X, and the younger I rescued from a bad owner, at his request, is a wolfhound/mastiff x. Between them they weigh more than I do.
