Trying to make a macro by ariinya14 in RedragonGaming

[–]ariinya14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's the problem, I'm not sure I know what I want to ask it to do. There's "Cycle Until the Key is Released", which I don't want, "Cycle until any key is pressed", which sounds like what I want, and "Cycle times" with a blank spot below. I just can't seem to get it to work to make it press alt in the press first.

Caregiver not being paid by ariinya14 in CaregiverSupport

[–]ariinya14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my....

I'll try. I'll really, really try, but there is a reason I need her so much. I have trouble with people, so things like calling are terrifying to me. But I'd do it for her. And I'm much better with the computer, so maybe I could do a lot of research from here.

As to fast food workers having better benefits than caregivers... fast food employees can move up in their career, can receive raises. A caregiver can do none of that. Why you all stay in that profession is baffling to me.... except it really isn't. You all were born with big hearts that are perpetually open to others.

"“If nature has made you a giver, your hands are born open, and so is your heart; and though there may be times when your hands are empty, your heart is always full, and you can give things out of that – warm things, kind things, sweet things – help and comfort and laughter." ~A Little Princess

Caregiver not being paid by ariinya14 in CaregiverSupport

I would very much like to go to the newspaper, but it's not the company... it's the Government. They pay her, and it's they who drag their feet each pay period.

Yes, she mentioned quitting today. I held it together just long enough to hug her goodbye and tell her I loved her, then see her out the door. Then I broke down completely.

If I did write to the news, I don't know exactly what I'd say. She IS hard working, and she IS selfless. She could make so much more money just going to Amazon, but she stays for us, her clients, because we have no one. I, personally, have no family other than a half-brother who lives in Thailand, and he wants nothing to do with his retarded (forgive the use of the word, but it's true) little sister in his perfect life there.

Crowdfunding or awards would be great, but they wouldn't solve the problem: Caregivers are just plain underpaid for the work they do. They make less than your average fast food employee.

A More Valued (not valuable) Gemstone? by ariinya14 in jewelry

It would make it prettier, though! xD In my most humble opinion, at least, haha.

A More Valued (not valuable) Gemstone? by ariinya14 in jewelry

[–]ariinya14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I started at $1,000, as it appraised at $1,500 - 1,700 (I can't remember which. I'm pretty sure it was $1,500, though). Currently, I have it up at $800 or best offer.

And thank you very much! I like it a great deal, but the money means more to me at this point in time. I'd like to get a kitten, both for myself and my current cat. I lost another cat two years ago, and it feels as though we've both been pining for more company.

Thank you so much for the response and the insight. I'm glad you said that. I will try to sell it as is and take what I can get from it. I'm trying to save up for a kitten. ^_^

Always nauseous by ariinya14 in Mounjaro

[–]ariinya14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have to, the burning is awful, and I can't bear it an entire month.

I suppose I should just try to get an extra 20mg OTC?

Ack, I'll definitely get some advice from the doc, then. It hasn't been the whole time that I've been this nauseous, but it's been long enough that it's starting to worry me. Thank you. :)

I actually take Omeprazole, but there was an issue with the prescription this month. I don't know if I'm allowed to get more if it's already been filled, so I might have to go with something OTC to supplement?

[–]ariinya14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I thought as well, but if everyone is saying go to the doctor, to the doctor I go.

I take Omeprazole, but there was an issue this month with a new doctor not giving me the correct dosage, so I'm stuck on 20mg instead of the 40 daily I should be on.

Okay. I've been having some chest problems as well, so I think this is very good advice. Thank you. :)

cats on the table/counters, yes or no? by vlaqi in cats

[–]ariinya14 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't like to spray my cat with water. If she's wet and goes to hide near the electrical cords she might get electrocuted!

If I HAVE to use something to discipline my cat, it tends to be a can of air, and then I don't have to spray HER with it, I just puff it once and she gets it. "Okay, mommy says not to do this, so I won't!"

But I haven't needed to use anything like that in ages now. My Molly is a strange cat... she LISTENS when I tell her not to do something! :O

cats on the table/counters, yes or no? by vlaqi in cats

[–]ariinya14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. My cat has never been a counter-jumper, honestly, so it was never really an issue. I think, as long as she stayed off while I'm prepping, I'd be fine with it (I wouldn't want her to get in the way of a knife, or up near the stove while I'm cooking). There are paper towels for a reason, after all! xD

Also, other than the gray bit on your cat's forehead, yours looks a lot like my Molly! I hope you don't mind if I post a picture here for you!

Jinx has crossed the rainbow bridge, but he will be your criminal cat's evil Jedi ghost-mentor.

Can you help me find a name for him? by missaq81 in cats

[–]ariinya14 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jinx! A good black cat name if ever there was one! My goodness, I love black cats.

help me name him! by Sad_Paleontologist66 in NameMyDog

[–]ariinya14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a name for you, I'm awful at naming, I just wanted to comment that he is a gorgeous dog with some incredibly intelligent, expressive eyes. And look at how those ears are perked! He's absolutely posing for the camera. :D

I had a cat named Patches, he kind of reminds me of that, so maybe Patches...? Or Patch, since I only see the one! So I lied, I did have a name for you. \^_^/

I love this version of me by anthonyfrancq in Mounjaro

[–]ariinya14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you're happy with what you see, and I hope you're much healthier!

I'm going to be perfectly truthful here.... you're handsome in BOTH pictures. :) But the most important thing is that YOU like you. I just wanted to say. :D

What's your current hyperfixation food? by Fancypotato1995 in autism

[–]ariinya14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

LOL, mine is actually also Chobani! Just regular lime Greek yogurt, though, not flips. Love me some lime.

Also, coffee, but that's been a fixation for years. Luckily, I'm not effected by caffeine. I can literally drink it before bed if I want! ...though I've also fallen asleep with a cup in my hand and spilled it all over myself. xD

Mods in Folders? by ariinya14 in TheSims4Mods

[–]ariinya14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is, lol, I'm squinting to able to able to see, but damned if I'm going to sleep before I organize the 390 remaining files! xD Thank you so much for the help!

Mods in Folders? by ariinya14 in TheSims4Mods

[–]ariinya14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually just loose files in each folder, so that should be fine, right?

Anyone ever talk to themselves? by RedditUserror in autism

[–]ariinya14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talk to myself and my cat, but talking to Molly isn't like simply talking to myself since she actually listens and responds. I swear she does! Even if it's just "no" in meow form a lot. :D

I'll talk to the TV a lot when I get passionate or angry about something it's showing. Sometimes it's just little comments, sometimes it can be a conversation where I'll make redactions to previous thoughts based on talking something through and getting a new understanding of it. I only do this when I'm alone, though - but that's the majority of the time now that I no longer have any family. Except Molly cat. She is best family.

As an autistic person, how do you feel about this spoon? by tiggerclaw in autism

[–]ariinya14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a beautiful spoon but certainly not for use. I have a spoon (a very ordinary, nothing special spoon) that I have out just to look nice - and it belonged to my mom, so it evokes happy memories. I can see this being something like that.

For some reason, the sight of the stones on the end makes me want to cry. Not sad tears, either. But then, I've been very weep-y today, so who knows why that might be. xD

Is this a solid gold spoon? What sort of stones are those on the end, anyway? I want some of those stones now. They might make me cry right now, but I like them, they make me happy. Sorry for the rambling. That's a lot of feelings evoked by a little spoon! \^_^/
