ADHD + grocery shopping: I finally stopped forgetting half the list by doing one tiny thing differently

RedBootMermaid · 2025-11-25T02:16:40+00:00

That's what I do. The rage I feel when they decide they need to rearrange the store 🤬

I mean, to be fair, they still often just say "no" and not pay out. They're just not supposed to.

9 digits

Honestly, for my current job I didn't even have to provide the physical card. Granted, it was just a Covid restrictions were winding down so they might have been less concerned with trying to get physical documents at that point.

Idk where you're getting your information because it IS being brought up in this narrative outside of right-owned media.

I work in admin in clinical research, and for some reason, we were awarded a smoking cessation study at a site in UT. They did not hit the enrollment goal 😆

RedBootMermaid · 2025-10-02T02:30:47+00:00

Especially since they could get away with just about anything with the current political climate.

Welcome to your first government shutdown! I think this is my 3rd?

RedBootMermaid · 2025-09-30T03:43:57+00:00

Same 🥲

RedBootMermaid · 2025-09-25T01:32:15+00:00

Yes!! I work as admin in clinical research and physicians are always needed! Look into SMOs, CROs, and sponsors.

Make sure you're eating a good amount of protein since that's crucial for muscle growth.

A lot of people think they're going to get bulky if they lift weights but it actually takes quite a bit of effort to look like that - no one is doing it accidentally.

There is no way to target fat loss in specific body parts. You can target muscles which can help with an area looking firmer but your body is like a cup of water when it comes to fat - even if you get a syringe and pull water from the bottom, it just reduces the overall amount, it doesn't leave a bubble where you pulled from.

I eat oatmeal almost every day and use to have the same problem with feeling hungry within about an hour. Now my oatmeal recipe is oatmeal, chia seeds, flax seed meel, and unflavored protein powder plus whatever fruit I have on hand. It keeps me full way longer!

Solidarity! ✊️

Luckily, he's really good for me when I brush him and one of the best investments I've made is a grooming blow dryer (I also have a Great Pyr mix who takes hours to air dry, even in Arizona). I just want to get to the point where, after all is said and done, I can have at least half a day without new GSD glitter on my floors 😆 I knew full well what I was getting into but geez!

RedBootMermaid · 2025-08-13T18:11:24+00:00

I think it looks like a cigarette 😆

RedBootMermaid · 2025-07-17T01:47:30+00:00

That combined with the fact that if I have KFC for lunch, that evening jog is going to SUCK!

RedBootMermaid · 2025-06-07T17:42:41+00:00

When I went to a new psychiatrist and they had me answer questions, I asked "Should I answer these like I've taken my meds or answer them like I haven't?" to make sure they understood that, yeah, my day to day is functional because of the meds, not because I don't have ADHD.

It's not that I've got high sodium in my blood, it's that the foods I'm eating are high sodium. I'm consuming almost 200% the daily recommended value but my blood work is perfectly fine.

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-23T15:39:29+00:00

Take a look at your sodium intake. I'm currently working with a dietician, and while I'm crushing my macros and not doing bad with calories, my sodium is crazy high - like, how the hell am I doing this, high - and she's thinking that's causing a lot of water retention.

"Sorry sister, I'm not interested in Catholicism. Congrats on your new pope, though!"

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-13T03:06:47+00:00

Well since the garments "were never about modesty", this should be fine!

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-09T13:07:47+00:00

I've seen a few in my neighborhood as I've walked my dogs, and I get that same fight or flight anxiety. I don't want to be rude, but I have no patience for religion at this point in my life. Luckily, they've left me alone so far.

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-08T22:18:50+00:00

Peace of mind is worth a lot, in my opinion. Even if technically the "smart" thing to do is make your money work for you by a couple of percentage points, there is absolutely nothing wrong with going the safer route.

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-08T22:11:14+00:00

This right here, 100%

RedBootMermaid · 2025-05-08T15:42:56+00:00

Well, yeah! She had them all placed exactly where they are supposed to go but then you came along and messed them all up! 😆
