I think she gets off around 5 or 5:30 though based on when I usually still get emails from her. I don't know if it is annoying her or she just doesn't think it is important but I say good morning and good night to the workers in my physical location so I think it is the same thing. But if I stop doing it all the sudden, she might find that strange too. So I don't know whether to keep saying it or just never end the conversation for the day....so weird. I tried to Google what the etiquette is on something like that but I can't seem to find the answer.

I could see sending a goodnight email if it was the other way around--if you were the one 3 hours ahead and leaving for the day, to let her know you're heading out. But not sure you really need to send one in this case. the "good morning" makes sense as you're likely there after her, so you can let her know you're there.
Thanks for this!
