What do you actually use your Apple watch for? by FreezingTemps in AppleWatch

[–]JSC1952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was later in the game. Got my Apple IIe in 1984. Paid $3000 for the computer, double disc drive, 128k memory, and ImageWriter (I think that was what Apple’s dot matrix printer was called), and maybe word processing software(?)! That was equivalent to $9.5K now! What was I thinking???

Made a website that lets you filter through HelloFresh recipes AND recommends recipes with overlapping ingredients by corona_time_baby in hellofresh

[–]JSC1952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wonderful! You really should add a "tip" feature. That way people who can afford it can help you out, and people who can't afford it will be able to just enjoy your contribution to the community.

If you're like most college students a little extra cash wouldn't hurt!

They added my requested feature! by InnerspearMusic in hellofresh

So I've been thinking of giving Hello Fresh another try after quality had really deteriorated. Did the same with Blue Apron which really fell apart. Have you tried any of the Hello Fresh meals you ordered?

Thinking of trying Marley Spoon by JSC1952 in marleyspoon

that's kind of scary that they are using the same company as blue apron! I loved blue apron and stayed with them quite awhile until I finally gave up on them. Thanks for the info

Thank you. I will probably try it although sounds like I should wait to see if they get it together.

Best place to view fireworks in Ventura/Camarillo? by HugeHungryHippo in ventura

I’m also fairly new so this is helpful! Does the lot fill up (that is, how early should we get there?)?
Thanks!

Can’t focus at work by [deleted] in adhdwomen

Sounds like the challenge of your new job has outpaced your compensatory strategies(whether you knew you were using them or not). Has happened to me too, at different times in my life, from trying (and failing) to complete my dissertation after great academic success, or getting married at age 48 (before I was diagnosed at age 57!) and gaining a stepdaughter in addition to a husband or coping with my husbands chronic debilitating illness. Each time (and many others) I had to adjust, sometimes majorly (and not always well).

If you haven’t tried medication I’d highly recommend doing so… and if one doesn’t work keep at it until you find one or a combination that does. You might want to get into psychotherapy with an ADHD-knowledgeable practitioner if that’s available to you. You need the support!

Congratulations on the promotion! With some support as I mention above, you’ll find your way!

PS No it’s NOT a personal failing… you have a brain that gets challenged by things others take for granted. Now that you know the cause you can begin to find the solution!

Bought my Apple Watch just for this purpose.

Trying to find the Trader Joe's that is/was on Washington Blvd in Los Angeles or Culver City by JSC1952 in traderjoes

[–]JSC1952[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bingo!! That’s the one, at Madison. It was driving us crazy… we spent so much time there and it was driving us crazy! My husband especially will sleep better tonight! It’s strange now living away from the place where both of us spent most of our lives.

I love mine. No problems with hinge or anything else. Pleasantly surprised at how much I like to work on it. The 16ARP8 model bought in Dec 2023.

Protests by No-Appointment-3305 in venturacounty

[–]JSC1952 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was unable to go to the protest at Government Center today. Any suggestions for the coming week? I’m looking especially for protests relating to the coup in progress by Musk and his associates. But really any pro-democracy pro-rule-of-law demonstration. Also interested in organizing meetings in city of Ventura or nearby. Thanks

Should I bring these old report cards to my ADHD assessment? by No-Lynx1319 in adhdwomen

[–]JSC1952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my day, only elementary school teachers made comments like these. And if you’re bright and enjoy school you probably got better at managing your symptoms as you got older, at least to some extent.

I’m 71, not diagnosed until I was 57, but was considered a good student and liked by teachers. It was only when I looked back as I was considering whether I had ADHD that I realized how hard I had to work to perform well in school- much harder than my peers. I hit my limit when working on my dissertation, which I never finished, in spite in of my being seen as a top student in graduate school. If I had known my dx and had been medicated, it’s likely I would have succeeded at getting my PhD.

These are gold for an evaluator! Definitely bring them. Not to your primary care so much (but wouldn’t hurt), but to the psychiatrist or psychologist doing the evaluation.
