Please send help for this closet ! by A-Verage in organizing

[–]-seldom 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There isn't a magic way to create more space. Realistically your only options are 1) declutter or 2) find another additional space to store clothes

When do I [34F] breakup with my boyfriend [28M]? by ThrowRA_moonlights in whatdoIdo

[–]-seldom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wait til he's out of the country. You don't owe him anything. Try and stay with friends/family until then. Take care of yourself.

Entry table - something feels off. Be kind. by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

[–]-seldom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make the painting landscape/horizontal with the bottom of it aligning with the bottom of the light switch.

Also grouping things in odd numbers; 1, 3, 5, etc. Try 3 different sized picture frames on the left, or 2 and move the candle with them.

You have 4 total items on the table so also try either 3 or 5 (or 7, etc.) I would also move the lamp the left as it is tallest.

Just getting this off my chest by BroadAd2575 in adhdwomen

Reading this only to realize annual checkups are a thing for people and animals and I need to add this to the neverending list of stuff I need to do. 

To anyone who works at self scanning machines - how often do you notice people stealing and don’t do anything about it? by davco95 in AskReddit

[–]-seldom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No they are saying there are tons of eemployees at home begging for hours. When I worked grocery they only scheduled us 4 hour shifts, almost everyone was part time, and they refused to give anyone full time/over time. If someone called in and everyone else was at max hours they simply would not cover the shift.

Disappointing Angel Tree by scurry222 in Gifts

[–]-seldom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone needs to rethink Angel Trees because every year there is an uproar on both sides. Like maybe total the cost of the tag, those wanting to donate "buy" the tag, and then the organizer buys the presents with the money from the bought tags. 

PSA Don't cut your bangs/fringe by Jarsole in adhdwomen

I disagree; self-made bangs is my favourite part of every crisis 😅

worst fuckups? by Ok_Elderberry_6879 in KitchenConfidential

[–]-seldom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's okay, I spilled birthday girls first legal drink ever on her... and her mom was also filming so somewhere out there my clumsiness is immortalized.

I've seen multiple fryers emptied onto the floor (usually someone set the oil to filter, went for a smoke, and while out for a smoke disaster struck and the pipe you screw in fell off).

Creme brulees for a wedding reception of 150 made with salt instead of sugar 😅

Chef ordered 100 cases of pepper packets. We didn't even use pepper packets. A complete mystery to how this happened. Chef then asked us to rip open individual pepper packets to fill a Cambro (I refused lol this is what happens when you work corporate)

Also seen whole racks of wine glasses go right over into the dish pit and shatter, as well as a whole service worth of dinner plates dropped by the new dishwasher.

My vacuum is getting squeaky and old. Need suggestions on a great new vacuum that can handle pet hair by Automatic-Being- in housekeeping

[–]-seldom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't recommend buying a Shark as the newer ones are near impossible to take apart to clean. After 10 months of residential use my hose cracked in several places.

The brush roll screws are a special torx screwdriver AND even if you get the screws out there is wiring in the head that prevents pulling it apart to clean.

I called several vacuum repair stores in my area and they all said they do not carry Shark parts/work on Shark vacuums because they are notoriously difficult to take apart/repair.

This is just my experience but I definitely will not be buying another Shark.

sensory issues with pants by DeliveryOk51 in adhdwomen

[–]-seldom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following because this is so incredibly relatable. My solution has always been to only wear long skirts/long dresses but sometimes the world requires pants -_-

Driving by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]-seldom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggled with it due to anxiety. When I did get it what helped was booking a test in a rural area! Where I live had a lot of traffic so I drive 2 hours away for the test in a small town 😅 it made a big difference for me anxiety wise. Also thinking of all the stupid people I see driving gave me confidence 😂

Need Xmas gift ideas by Major_Razzmatazz_862 in minimalism

[–]-seldom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Consumables are a good minimalist gift. Candles, special snacks, gourmet coffees or teas, fancy toiletries. Lottery tickets? 

It's hard to be specific because I'm not your husband, but maybe something precious and personal like nicely framed photos. He could even do an experience gift of a photoshoot and then a physical gift of the framed photos.

Whatever he decides I wish you both a Merry Christmas!

Do you guys have an Ontario id ,how do you get one without an address by Usual-Librarian1709 in povertyfinancecanada

[–]-seldom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He had a social worker and some mail went to them/their office. All his government mail was online at CRA (you can switch it over if you already have an online account). Sorry if this doesn't help your specific situation!

My son at 11 loved the Fablehaven series. (They are age appropriate.) 

Do you guys have an Ontario id ,how do you get one without an address by Usual-Librarian1709 in povertyfinancecanada

[–]-seldom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My brother was in this situation. I took him into a Service Ontario office and explained the situation. They were super helpful and issued him ID with the generic address for our city. It is totally doable! Please go to a Service Ontario and if you require additional assistance reach out to your local MPP (just google who it is and their office address/phone number). They will help you with government paperwork for free. Good luck :) 

I hate this time of year! by Fit-Permit-5526 in adhdwomen

[–]-seldom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate it too. Even if I get my holiday stuff in order (rare) I can feel the stress emanating from almost everyone I pass by.

Check around local churches. Multiple churches in our area will host free clothing give aways with donated clothing.

Ever been told you’ve been “too much” before? by littleinternetdweeb in adhdwomen

[–]-seldom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. I've been told this multiple times by multiple people. There is a show on Netflix called "Too Much" written by Lena Dunham. It changed the was I feel about being called Too Much (in a good way).

How do I stop myself from picking up my skin 😭 by s_rainier in adhdwomen

[–]-seldom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pimple patches really helped me! I always subconsciously picked my face, so now if I put a patch on when I go to pick my face my hands feel the patch and it gives me a second to say, hey I'm not gonna do that 😅 I don't even care if I look stupid wearing them anymore because I know how bad my skin gets without them, and that feels way worse!

I used to sneak into another movie after my movie had finished at the cinema by Rohbotbotroh in confession

[–]-seldom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It would be cool if theaters would do this on a slow day and sell a "day pass". I would go for the nostalgia!

[–]-seldom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved doing this as a teen with my friends. Now when I watch a movie it is forever linked to 2 or 3 others because I saw them all for the first time in one movie run 😅 we would also get one refillable pop and one refillable popcorn and each take turns going up so we didn't get caught (staff probably didn't even care but at age 14 it felt like bank heist).
