I am so sorry to hear that. Employment is a difficult thing for us on the spectrum. I wish employers understood more about spectrum issues.


Thank you. I accepted the fact that i will never be understood as long as i live so i didn't have any expectations anyway. I just don't want to look for a job any longer.

Hugs.

Unknown.

The only thing I could describe is... This form of boredom.
Not the lack of energy and motivation, but more like a lost of direction and momentum.


It's like... One is meant to do marathons best, but... Sprints are only allowed or encouraged, and one is just too "slow" and is really frustrated about it.

We backed out of our house contract this morning as the house sellers did not even respond to our messages about the failed inspection. Feeling directionless and depressed that we will be living in an RV for an unknown amount of time. I'm also in a lot of pain (around 4 days in a row of it)

Oh noes. That sounds difficult. :cry:

While christmas was mostly fine, I may have said something insensitive to my granddad, without meaning to, and I'm upset everytime I think about it.

Also, my holiday's just begun so of course I've got the worst cold I've ever had.

The neighbour kid (not really a kid anymore, but certainly acts like one) has been blasting fireworks all throughout the week. Of course it's not even new year yet. It scares my cat and annoys everybody else. He just enjoys being a loud, obnoxious POS.

I'm very sorry to hear this Flown. You must feel quite dispirited.


Sending hugs and hoping there are better days ahead.

Readying for work. Out of clothes, into cold. Shower warm, then into cold again. Warmed by uneven drops, then wet and cooling. Worse in winter apartment. Dry. The smell of towel; its awful feeling. Then dress again. The smell of clothes, though clean. Different fabrics, different weights. Ready lunch. Different textures, differing temperatures, several tastes. Resigned. Must do. Later, into cold. Will the windshield need scraped? The sound, the texture. The difficulty. Sounds of cars and horses. Smell of gas in cold, feel of cold car, driving to work. Ugly radio voices; waiting for school buses; worrying about horses and cyclists. Then screening people, in the cold. Sun bright, if out. Glasses fog. Uncomfortable and cannot see. Acting pleasant. Want to escape. Coworker talks Jesus and politics--need something to be angry about every two minutes--ignoring my lack of interest. Cold. Long hour. Counting the people left to screen. Waiting to go in the warm, but there the rush of lights; sound; people readying their needs, feeling ignored; never a break. Counting the time of the short week. The shorter feels longer, stretched by expectation. Then finally peace, in time off, relaxing as it decreases, knowing this routine will return.

Thanks to everyone for your support.

kraftiekortie, I think we did. We ordered the best (and unfortunately most expensive) inspection, and it turned out that the basement/foundation were purely of wood construction. They had not maintained it well, and it was rotting due to repeated water damage (from snowmelt that was not directed properly around the house). There was an extensive rodent infestation. There were also no visible vents coming from their propane stoves (for heating the home). There were a list of other things that we could have forgiven, but the ones I mentioned could not be overlooked. We sent a message with what the sellers would need to remediate/repair/inspect if we were to continue, and we never heard back from them over the weekend. We are pretty angry and upset at how unprofessional they have been.

I am sorry, although it does seem like it was for the best that they didn't call back. I imagine it would be even harder to move out later if those problems weren't solved in the beginning.

Hopefully you will come across a better option soon.

Poignant. So true. Short weeks drag longer. Anticipation and waiting. Clocks. Chatter. Repeat how great it is. Empty comments. Empty questions. All talk, no meaning. More to do but less time. Their sloppy work. Their stories. Catch-up as they drone, laugh, slack, and judge. Save their arse with no thanks. Muscles tighten. Temples throb. Teeth clench. Note rolled eyeballs. Flash back to other anticipation, other disappointment. Other fatigue. Same fatigue. Flash forward. Repeat. Cages. Patterns. Cycles. Water cycles. Rain. Moods. Self-esteem. Self-soothing. Self-loathing. Stimming. Self-control. Days off are never enough. Thirst. Dry skin. Clearing throats. Health concerns. Covid. Germs and messy paperwork. Lightbulbs. Windows. Sunshine. Glare, slush, melt, rot, vanish. Disappear. Ringing phones. Ringing ears. Innuendo. That weird grin. Texture, scent, sound, colour, sound sound. Sticky fingers. Being touched. Scrutinised. Body language. Stand straight. Don't slouch. Look comfortable. Self-monitor. Scratch. Smile again. Inquire politely. Nod. Work. Ignore. Worry. Participate. Lack of control. Stifled thought. Stifled energy. Dormant dreams. Find tissue. Stretch. Temperatures, up and down like carousel ponies. Toes curled and damp. Neck kinked. Gloves forgotten. Socks bunched. Coat old, with messy pockets. Prices. Plans. Pragmatics. Other people's wool. Fibres floating like vapours. Particles. Slicing eyes and throats like fibre glass, cutting our lungs. Itchy eyes. Sunken eyes. Sniffles. Textures, sounds, bells, alarms, time.

Soup. There's never enough soup.
