I’m looking for someone to help me with a 3D drawing of a candle mold. I have pics of what I want it to look like. I apologize if this is the wrong sub. I don’t know where else to post.
I’m generally pretty organized and good at putting things together, but some people are just naturally good at knowing what belongs where—and that’s where I struggle.
So I’m reaching out to those people for help figuring out what makes the most sense in each space.
I’ve pulled out the items I have the hardest time placing—things like serving pieces, baking tools, a waffle maker, Cuisinart, etc.—and I’m hoping people can help me categorize them. Otherwise I end up with a waffle maker in one cabinet and the Cuisinart in the pantry, and it all feels kind of random rather than intentional.
Probably the first time I’ve ever had three A’s in my life. 😂
Kidding aside, I’ve had anhedonia for so long that I honestly don’t remember a time, outside of early childhood, when I looked forward to much of anything. I’m 50 now. For decades, I thought excitement was just something that faded when adulthood began.
I’ve pushed my way through days, life, marriage, raising kids, all of it, for decades.
Then I had a depressive episode that lasted years. I don’t feel depressed anymore in the way I did then - that magnetic pull to sleep 24/7 is gone but I still don’t feel like much of anything will give me more pleasure than sitting in bed.
I had pretty much resigned myself to feeling this way forever.
Until recently.
I started taking Auvelity and I’ve noticed some small shifts in how I feel moving through my day. Nothing dramatic, but enough that I’m cautiously optimistic.
So I’m curious: does anyone here have aphantasia, ie no mind’s eye and still experience anticipatory excitement? Can you genuinely look forward to something you can’t mentally picture? Smell? Hear? Taste? Feel?
I’m flying from SFO to Miami on 9/5, returning on 9/12 to SFO from Miami. I’m a CA resident (born and raised in the Bay Area. Have my DL and a bank account and SSN and card, if needed but it may have my maiden name on it.
I have my birth certificate but not my marriage certificate (although I can get, if needed).
I can try to obtain a RealID before the flight but it seems unlikely to get in time.
If I attempt the RealID, will DMV take my existing ID or invalidate it? And therefore cause a ConfirmID issue?
If I use ConfirmID, should I wait until just before the outbound flight because of the 10 day rule?
I’ll be in the Sac area on Friday and curious if there’s a central DMV office in that area that makes the mail out of the RealID expedited?
And generally, is there a reason ConfirmID would not confirm me? Seems like everyone is freaking out but I’m legit, no felonies, etc. Maybe some parking tickets? :-)
Hi, I use this husky all the time but it’s so utilitarian looking and I’m really looking for suggestions on how to Reface it or modify it so it looks more pleasing and feminine. Here’s a picture of my room and then this cabinet and desk setup I use. I absolutely do not want to get rid of the cabinet, though. I use it from storing sunglasses and makeup to all my filming and creative work.
If I make a return in store, will Nordstrom give me a gift card? I have a closed account with a balance and would like to get the money to use in store, instead of it going towards my balance.
Ugh. I’ve been on and off GLP-1s for three years “off” mostly courtesy of insurance denying me - so here I am again, round 28,000.
Last night I took my 8th shot of 5 mg right before bed and made what was apparently a rookie mistake despite being very much not a rookie.
I woke up out of a dream feeling so sick to my stomach, like I had a nasty rock just sitting in there. And apparently my brain decided to explain the sensation by creating a dream where someone was forcing me to eat her boyfriend’s food, which happened to be one enormous fish nugget.
Think chicken nugget, but fish. And about five times the size.
I don’t even like fish.
So now I’m fairly convinced my sleeping brain was like, “Why does her stomach feel disgusting? QUICK. INVENT A GIANT FISH NUGGET.”
Then the dream fast-forwarded to a friend coming over who I recently had a really unfortunate interaction with IRL… and now I’m wondering if my brain dragged her into it because my stomach also hurt after that whole situation.
Apparently my subconscious has started filing emotional distress and GI distress in the same folder.
Not a rookie, yet somehow: rookie mistake.
Never taking the shot right before bed again.
And to top it off, I woke up mid-dream, so the giant fish nugget and all its emotional baggage have been living rent-free in my head all day.
I’m aggravated.
Last week I received a message while charging at home, “Charge rate reduced - Wall plug temperature high. Wall outlet and wiring inspection recommended.”
I called an electrician who works on EV outlets. $300 minimum to open the outlet and the breaker to tell me everything is fine. There’s power. Wires aren’t damaged. Outlet is good.
I plug the car in to charge and receive this message -
Charging Error - No Power
Well FU Elon. Misleading me by stating “have the outlet and wiring inspection,” and not suggesting I replace the charger is BS.
I’m not installing the Tesla wall charger because I may not get another Tesla.
Any suggestions on what new charging cord to purchase? My outlet is 14-30.
Hi. I was a Nordstrom shopper for more than a decade and after a mild shopping addiction, I decided to close my Nordstrom Visa. I have always made returns by mail, without fail. I have a couple of items I’d like to return. They are unused and have tags and my Nordstrom shopping history online shows the items as purchased and that’s the option I’m going to use to begin the return. I’m not concerned that they’ll think there’s fraud or that they will deny my return. My question is, how do they refund me if my account is closed?
I’m curious - were you taught where to put these when you were growing up? If so or if not, do you switch drawers trying to find the ideal placement? do you ever wonder, how many should I have of each? If a book was written with rules for where to put these and how many items to have/keep would that help you?
I own a home with a hardwired 240V EV outlet that was installed before I bought the house and wasn’t originally permitted. When I had solar and a battery installed, the city inspected it and issued a permit.
I’ve owned the home for almost 10 years and usually charge overnight to 80% without any issues. A couple of days ago, I charged in the middle of the day and received a notification similar to the one I’m posting (I can’t find the original, so this is a copy).
I haven’t changed any charging settings. I’ll call an electrician, but how do I know they’re checking the right things? After reading posts here, it sounds like there’s a lot of poor-quality EV outlet work. As a homeowner with very little electrical knowledge, what specifically should I ask them to inspect or verify?
