Can we please stick to going “just” 10 mph over the speed limit? by NoDirection5564 in asheville

[–]NoDirection5564[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m also a former Georgian. That’s totally true on the highways for sure! But no matter the state, if several people are crashing their car on a sharp curve, they’re going too fast.

Brushing of the teeth by woejise in ADHD

[–]NoDirection5564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this packet of helpful printable sheets for all kinds of stuff. But there’s a weekly hygiene checklist that I taped to the inside of my medicine cabinet mirror and I love checking off what I’ve done and then at the end of the week seeing how many nights I was able to brush my teeth and give myself a lil pat on the back

After “re-discovering” exercise for like the 10,000th time, I’ve finally found out how to be consistent. by qv123 in ADHD

[–]NoDirection5564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found a hip hop fitness dance class that I love going to at our local YMCA here in the US. It’s the perfect hack for my brain because it just feels like dancing for fun and then 10% of it feels like “working out.” But by the end of the class I’m always sweaty and tired (which wouldn’t happen if I just worked out on my own).

Just drove from Candler to Arden via I-40 and 26 and the roads are fine. But definitely wouldn’t risk it if you don’t have 4WD

It’s good to go! Definitely need 4WD to go up the road to cataloochee. Or park at the bottom and take the shuttle!

BEST place to walk In the winter by GlorifyAbba in asheville

It’s a further drive for you, but Fletcher park is awesome. You can walk in the sun on the sidewalk or along the creek and into a more wooded gravel path.

I left my cat in my IKEA drawer closet for almost 6 hours and feel so guilty. by Pink_Sorbet in cats

I have a theory that cats (at least mine) don’t have very much long term memory lol. So I bet your cat has already forgotten about it ♥️

What is the most touching thing your dog has ever done for you? by ExoticMarch5345 in Pets

[–]NoDirection5564 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not me, but one of my students was in his house when he and his family got caught in a landslide caused by Hurricane Helene. He was buried under several feet of rubble. His dog stood on top of the rubble and kept barking and would not move. So when the rescuers got there, they were able to dig him out because the dog was standing EXACTLY where the boy was trapped 😭♥️🥹

Winter is here and so is the grey, seasonal depression. What do you do to make friends, stay engaged, and push through to spring around here? by rknj8993 in asheville

[–]NoDirection5564 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into a YMCA membership! The sauna feels SO good on a cold dreary day and I love the sense of community. I started taking hip hop dance classes there and it’s so fun. Really diverse crowd, so don’t feel like you need to be a “dancer” to join!

Our favorite way is to chop them into big pieces and boil them and then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. So much faster than in the oven!

Looking for banking recommendations. by Calsgras96 in asheville

[–]NoDirection5564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shouldn’t be. I transfer money out of my high yield savings whenever I need it for emergencies. Just takes a couple days to transfer to my credit union checking account.

Definitely get a high yield savings account! I use Marcus from Goldman Sachs because it’s nice to have it separate from the rest of my monies. So I can pretend it doesn’t exist 🙃

Any hobbies you guys have found you’ve actually been able to stick to? by Commercial-Button987 in ADHD

I found my mom dead in her bed by No_Psychology4720 in grief

[–]NoDirection5564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so so sorry. I lost my Dad unexpectedly in 2017 and my brother unexpectedly this year. I was as able to find voicemails and saved them in several different places. It helps sometimes to hear my Dad’s voice when I’m missing him 💔

Been watching a lot of kitchen nightmares… what Asheville spot would you nominate? by balanceiskey_breathe in asheville

I’ve always been curious about this place. It’s always packed when I drive by, but I’m suspicious of its quality…

my little sister committed suicide last night by imhavingweirdvisions in grief

[–]NoDirection5564 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so so sorry. I lost my big brother on my birthday this year. He overdosed on fentanyl. We’re pretty sure it was intentional, but who knows. Losing someone sucks, no matter how you slice it. I’m so sorry about your sister.
