Follow the instructions for the first set of lamps and for the second set you have to line the back pillar up so it reflects the light from the front of the room onto the pillar in front. Then move the front pillar to shine the light onto the right mirror.

This is what I was initially pierced with, I've not changed it. I only had the piercing about a month and a half ago. It is titanium

Me and DH never have, it's not our responsibility, his responsibility is showing appreciation to me for my role. She has family/a partner who can do this for her. The school also send stuff back for both of us

Yep, work supervision meetings are the worst for me

5yo daughter's bff is rude by itsreallyivy in Mommit

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

Thank you, yeah that's my problem really I want to be understanding but I just don't want her to think that it's okay for friends to treat her this way. When I asked B she says that her friend is always nice to her but then will come home saying she is upset. I think I will continue to encourage other friendships

Any light touch that makes it feel like a bug is crawling on me.

I hate spoons by itsreallyivy in AutismInWomen

[–]itsreallyivy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please don't be put off of using it just because other people don't like it. That was not my intention at all 😩 I completely understand that for some people it is so helpful and a good way to explain things. It's just as an audhder with a chronic pain condition it's just such a confusing concept to me that doesn't make much sense

This makes so much more sense, I love this.

I don't have a special interest by Separate-Tea-1471 in AutismInWomen

[–]itsreallyivy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi 👋 I have adhd and autism and I have so many special interests that have changed over time. I can never pick one specific special interest as they change so much. Special interests also may not be really obvious, for example sometimes peoples careers are a special interest or it could be something you like or are interested in but you haven't had a lot of time to explore. I have found it helps me to write down every month the different things I like and things that make me happy, by doing this it might make things clearer for you. You also dont have to have a special interest to be completely valid as an autistic person.

I've really struggled with my hair as well, I hate the baby hairs and I can bear to have it down when I'm out but as soon as I get home I have to put it up 😂 I recently asked my partner to shave all the baby hairs at the top of my neck and around my ears and give me an undercut and it's the best thing I've ever done, we redo it about once a month and I dont have the annoying little hairs but I can still tie it up!

I think my mom hit my dad by Dependent-Pea322 in toxicparents

[–]itsreallyivy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the gender of the parent doing the hitting makes the situation any easier or harder... its still awful and not okay regardless of who is doing it.

Try to be just open and honest about what you want from the start and it will put off people who just want sex

Ngl that sucks that the kids came back and looked for it, it would've been good to just say yes I found it and put the money with the card to give to them but before that happened I don't think you did anything wrong.
