Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Actually, not sure what I will do. Right now, I have that " blank look " on my face, feel emotionless, don't feel like doing anything kind of expression on my face. On the way home, I felt like I was starting to crumble a little bit from within. It wasn't a good day for me. Not sure if it was because of not getting enough sleep last night or I haven't been walking as much as I used to and such. I'm trying to figure out what it is that is causing me to be this way. Tomorrow will be a better day. With all the advertisements for Valentine's Day, I'm trying to block that day out of my mind. This will the the first year of being diagnosed with AS and having to go through that day. Maybe I'll use the gift card I found last night that I didn't know I received for Christmas and spend something on myself. > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I feel much better now.. I chose to fix supper and fix my version of spaghetti sauce with onion, italian seasoning, garlic powder, two cans of tomato sauce, and a can of tomato paste. That on top of 100% whole wheat penne. Looking forward to eating that and listening to some music while eating. One of the things I have done in my apt is have a table setting ready for the next meal. I feel this will allow me to love myself more. > > > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hay , Remember that you are loved. I am just a friend, but I think that you are a worthwhile person, and i am glad that you exist. I am not too sure what I will do about valentine's day either: the singles at my church will have a gathering near that time, and I am considering going to that-- not to date, but just to be with other single Christians. does your church have a gathering like that? if not, you could pick a restaurant, and make an announcement that singles should contact you if they plan to eat there together on that date- for example! Or, you could ask everyone to bring something-dessert, main dish, or salad/ veggie, or drink-- have a sign-up sheet- and have everyone over to your place- or ask someone who is single with a big place to let you go to their place. That way, you do not need to be part of a couple to enjoy the day. There are plenty of famous people who were single,! , AS and Christian, and single wrote: Actually, not sure what I will do.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hello ..... Thanks for your words of encouragement. Sometimes, I need to remind myself I am in the stage still of trying to figure myself out with AS and ADHD. I am still figuring out what I am capable of and such. Things like having a date, being involved in a relationship even a marriage, those sorts of things are realistically far from my mind. I am not at a stage in my journey yet where I could be in a highly successful relationship with someone. I spoke with a mentor and friend of mine from the field of higher education last night. She thinks that a lot of great things will happen in my life. She sees me in a helping profession where I can assist other adults who have found out that they were diagnosed with AS or something else and such. She senses strongly that my time in the construction industry will be only until I know where my path takes me. Then, I will charter another course into the area where I am supposed to be. Even as I have a stable position at a hardware distribution company, it's not where I want to be the rest of my life. Too much foul/bad language is used in the company where I work. It's like my square trying to fit within the company's triangle. Then again, it's the construction area. The construction field is not the end road for me. I'll need to retrieve my life mission statement and look at it once more. What I put on my statement is what I feel my life mission is. As such, I know that my future goals should reflect that statement. Yes, they will. I consider what I am going through right now as a strong learning experience in working with people who are very different than me. I am adjusting to this area, as I have lived down here in SE Tennessee for less than a year. The mentality here is much different than what I have lived in the past. Nevertheless, I do not have any regrets of having moved to Chattanooga and am thankful I chose to move. The dividends of having moved to an entirely different area and different culture will benefit me very well in the long run. As for remembering that I am loved, that's something I am working on in this new journey. Sure, I have days when I let people here know I am loved and such. I am a work in progress. I have good hope in knowing that I will love myself continuously. Hope is the very basic platform of which to build from and all. With hope, much can happen. My church does not have a single thing on Valentine's Day. I found a Target gift card a few days ago that I forgot to open on Christmas Day. Am thinking of going to Target that night and spending something on me. Not a dozen roses. I wouldn't want anyone thinking that I was a relative of Narcissus of Greek mythology LOL. I am not one to go to a restaurant on an occasion as such by myself and let my intentions be made known to everyone. > > > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 .. thank you for your kind words and the " hug " as well. Maybe that is something I should work on more. Giving and receiving more hugs. I read somewhere that mental health professionals suggest that everyone gets nine hugs a day for optimal health. Maybe that explains why people with certain types of disorders are not in better mental health than they could be. Who is or is not to say? I never, ever thought that anyone could giggle from reading my posts. Maybe that is part of the AS humor people talk about and such. After all, I am funny in my own way (even my most recent ex-gf suggested that about me). I am glad in knowing smiles are brought to your face. Yes, some days are more difficult than others when thinking about the good things and such. I think that is sad that your husband won't buy you any flowers. I wish he would. No one deserves to live an entire life without having received a flower from someone else. I have given flowers to people, and received them from people as well. I know that there's more to relationships than merely giving flowers. If relationships were THAT easy, I'd give flowers each and every day. As the song goes, " You don't bring me flowers, you don't sing me love songs " LOL. Thanks for your kind words as well. > > > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Chuckle, chuckle..... And you ate half of them ALREADY? LOL That's ok, there's always forgiveness for eating many of the chocolates LOL. I pat myself on the back for not buying any Girl Scout cookies (like I really needed to remind people about this time of the year in the States). Nope, it's ok to splurge and such. But I am learning more and more that some things, while they may taste good, are worth giving up in the end LOL > > > > > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 , It is great that you have a mentor, and that you have a job that puts you out of your comfort zone, so that you can learn a bit mroe about how to relate to NTs. I like these things in my life too, where I can find them. I wish I had more mentors- few know what to tell me- but I do have some, and the Lord has blessed me with Christian friends. I am ducking our chirch'e valentines gig this year, I think- I do not have a significant other- but if the single's group has one, then I will probably go. What kind of helping profession are you thinking of being in? wrote: Hello .....Thanks for your words of encouragement.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 ... Soemthing having to do with helping people who have been diagnosed with AS or something else. About learning the need to cope and find contentment with having AS. My mentor thinks strongly I will be very good at it, once I find out just who I am with AS and go from there with my life. She doesn't see me pursuing a PhD in higher ed admin. or anything like that. The thing I don't like about the construction industry is the constant use of belitting people who have disabilities. Maybe it's because I live in the mid to deep South USA now. Maybe it's because I work in the construction industry. Maybe it's both. Maybe it's because I went from a field where people had at least a bachelor degree and beyond to where most everyone has just a high school diploma and the need to further one's education and such just feels like it doesn't exist. One of the big things that troubles me every day is the use of bad language, as in every other word. Can't people speak decently about things? > > > > > > > > Didn't get as much done in the living room this evening.
