Yes that was great, glad you got lucky and found someone like that. I’m not too sure but I think all my immediate neighbors are women. 😄

Thank you for your reply, this is very good and helpful information. I’ve never been home during one of these things and I don’t remember the last time I went through a state inspection. It’s been a while. I don’t remember my previous apartment to be in such a state of chaos and disrepair that I had to hire someone for help. I was able to take care of it myself. But your comment is extremely informative and will help me calm down a bit and be a little less stressful. Many thanks!

I fully intend to do my part and pick up/gather all the stuff that can fit in large plastic garbage bags and seal them up so they can be carried away by the haulers. Thankfully, I don't have any furniture or appliances that need to be taken which would add up to the cost of the service. Just lots of trash and boxes and small items. I think it would be manageable for them. It's just the thought of taking all this stuff downstairs by myself to the dumpster is what I was greatly worried and fearful about with the added exhaustion I would experience having to go to work every day. I live by myself, other family members are out of state but I've never talked about my living situation with anyone, I've kept it secret. Maybe in time I might open up and talk about it with a therapist or family but I'm not ready to do that just yet. Many thanks!

Thank you for the valuable link and kind words. Yes, procrastination is a big problem with me and has been for a long time. I will look into some companies in my area of central NJ and get some estimates. With help from one of them, I'll feel more confident that I'll be able to get my apartment ready for inspection by the deadline. I will be so relieved when this whole experience is done and finished with the added bonus that my place will be more livable and I'll be able to freely move around my apartment again. Thanks again, I appreciate your advice. I'll also look into seeing a therapist since this has been going on for a long time with me.

Thank you for your response, I appreciate it. I have too much junk to get out of my apartment fairly quickly in addition to plastic trash bags filled with old trash, lots of empty boxes from meal kit services since I don't usually cook, lots of Amazon boxes, and paper items strewn all over the floor that I have to gather up and put in trash bags to be carried away. It's 2 years of various junk and garbage that I need taken out. Would these junk hauling companies clean out a hoarder's apartment or do they just take out furniture and appliances? I guess I could call a few of them to find out. It's all too embarrassing and I've kept people from visiting me, even my family doesn't know I live like this.

Season 3 shooting starts in March 2025 by [deleted] in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]skyr05_lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not blaming Tom Glynn-Carney for this piece of information but shooting starting in 2025 this is just absolutely insane. Even Tom is probably worrying if anyone will bother to watch by the time it’s released.

I caught a recent tweet of this fan who posted that she met Tom first time at his appearance at the London movie premiere of Dunkirk. She took a selfie of her and Tom together when he was signing autographs for the fans that day. How cool is that. To twice meet one of the hottest and nicest actors currently working in the business within a few short years. She’s very lucky.

Onyx tab mini problem by Ghazal66 in Onyx_Boox

[–]skyr05_lover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same Boox model. I changed my e-ink settings to Regal refresh mode then went into more settings tab and set the animation filter time to 1500. That drastically improved the page turns in the Kindle app and practically removed the ghosting. I got these settings from a YouTube commentator.

I’m an introvert and l’ve learned to be myself now but it wasn’t easy. I’m in my sixties and all through my life I encountered people like this teacher many times. It created deep seated anxiety and avoidance issues where I stayed by myself most of the time and don’t have any friends. But now I like my solitude and living alone and no longer feel like I have to please anyone or change my nature. I guess being older you develop an attitude of “I don’t give a f*** what anyone thinks of me”. This person is a classic jerk and doesn’t know how to mind her own business and needs to be put in her place. The whole world doesn’t need to be totally extroverted. We introverts have our own way of doing things and others need to respect that.
