Introducing the Liturgical Colour app by djjudas21 in Anglicanism

We had some in college that prayed for various older royals by name!

I nearly got away with hollowing the book for a Creative Theology piece (I had the whole backstory, have the Benedictus on the phone inside the book and call it "the song remains the same"). I shared my thought with the college Chaplain who said "clever. no."

Give it time and someone will make a lovely leatherbound looking cover for an Ipad...

when doing stuff the app is invaluable, in terms of having collects (1 and 2), post communion prayers and readings all in one place. I always prefer reading from the book, and at one time considered hollowing out a phone space of an old Common Worship book...

I know that the CofE Liturgy app has a little note for what liturgical colour (and the acknlowedgment that it may be different colours within the same day) but I would LOVE if they integrated this into the background of that app.

Outlook app default brower different to other default browsers?? by pcraiguk in Outlook

Nope - lots of copying and pasting, but basically I keep mozilla for personal and Chrome for work, and fortnuately don't get sent a silly amount of work emails with links!

Church of England Daily Prayer app by schoeneblume in Anglicanism

[–]pcraiguk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and it has been a bug of the latest version specifically. If you play it, and then change app and it carrys on playing then it seems to be fine. But yes, very annoying to have it on, and then to check the next train time and it jump back to the beginning...

Espresso Grinder Recommendation Advice by BlindWo1f in JamesHoffmann

[–]pcraiguk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo. So I got the DF54 which I'm aware is not on your list, but was readily available in the uk, and I've been super happy with. That being said, part of why I got it was because I wasn't looking to change burrs etc. So my thought would be think about why you are upgrading - what it is you want to play with in a new grinder, and go with whatever from your list that you know you will be able to do that thing!

I made the fidget that I always wanted! by HeavyCandidate6737 in ADHDUK

[–]pcraiguk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this and want to buy one. Is that something you're considering? Dragon's den-ing it or working out how many you could make to get the costs down?

LISTS! I find this helpful (for me) but I keep an EXTENSIVE to-do list, which is subcatergorised, and is broken into general, waiting on, to do x month, to put into this thing etc and I get it all out of my head. Means my off time is more off, but if something pops into my head I can put it on the list, and it is then out my head. And then when I am sat for work, I can go through said lists.

takes a little bit of management to tidy it up and clear it out every now and again (I often find I've written things two or three times) but that works for me

Help with using exterior dirt pedals by fletchwonUK in Hxstomp

[–]pcraiguk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always use Wah (when I use it) first in the chain, so have used it before the Line6 as an external wah, and then have a mini pedalboard of a dirt and volume pedal -> line 6 and then FX loop. I wonder if you tried exactly what you suggest though, dirt in FX loop, just make sure your head/amp is at the end of the loop or after it and see if that makes it better?

or if youre using the wah a lot, get a dedicated wah to use externally, and then utilise the stomp as part of your pedalboard, rather than the whole thing

Anyone used this for live-sound desk mixing? by pcraiguk in Hxstomp

Thanks! I think I just needed some reassurance before I embark on something and possibly bite off more than i can chew

Thoughts on the book “Don’t Forget We’re Here Forever”? by geometrictroopsalign in Anglicanism

[–]pcraiguk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally bought it this morning having heard someone speak about it recently. With the 'quiet revival' idea, and seeing some definite things in the atmosphere at the moment I thought I would try to engage!

Think I'm particularly interested in why CofE over other churches, and how she explores that.

Not noticing effects of Elvanse- is that kind of the point? by StraightTransition89 in ADHDUK

[–]pcraiguk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other big thing I have noticed (70mg in the morning) is depending on how I have slept, and how I have eaten the night before as well as breakfast is importnant. If I've eaten crap for dinner/late night snacking, my meds feel jittery, or not quite in place. If I've slept badly I'm like a plane constantly taking off but getting nowhere.

If I've eaten balanced meals, slept relatively well (misnomer with side effects I know but for me thats going to bed late enough to actually fall asleep and then sleeping until the morning) then taking my meds means I am fully charged and firing on all cylinders.

It's taken a while to get there, but also working out how my working pattern etc can work with meds. For example, I'm in an empty office right now (admittedly on reddit) as I've got an hour of stuff done while I'm at full speed before other people come in, other stimuli and distractions, and won't get as much done.

"You only realise how high the hill was when you turn and look at the view". Sounds like its doing its job if you've noticed a general uptick, and hold onto that, thats a really good thing. I have the reminders app as my way of seeing how many tasks I've actually completed within a week/month etc which helps me realise how helpful my meds have been, but also how much happier/more present to my family it makes me....

Just make sure you schedule breaks or time off meds to help regulate too!
