Sigh...
Bad news: I am in crisis again.
Good news: Who wants a job?
Looking for somebody with executive function and a driver's license with the ability to bring some grounding kindness to a burned out autistic trying to get her blazing dumpster fire back down to a smolder.
Need help with all sorts of adulting, my cog is just fried. Pretty flex just need extra brains and body.
Pay $20/hr 5-10hr/wk.
#Guelph area
Boosts appreciated.

I'm gonna focus on meatspace right now, but may circle back to stuff like this.
In the meantime, if yer not hip to @lonelinesscorps it's a group for anybody that wants to connect online one way or another. Battling social isolation one toot at a time. Might be interesting for ya.

in reply to Valerie Roney • • •Thanks 😊
I know how bad it all can feel, and how draining. I am glad my words made you smile. Get better if you can, get well, and by 'well' I mean in the way that makes you happiest 😊
Thanks for the top, too ❤️

in reply to Cy • • •@cy thanks. I've been through that sort of thing a few times and it just doesn't cough out the right kind of support for me. I don't fit.
I mostly need to connect with other beautiful weirdos to do the sort of stuff a competent friend would do. It changes all the time depending on how I am feeling. And right now I need big problem solver mode, care attendants are too structured a support.

in reply to Valerie Roney • • •If I were closer, I'd take you up on the job offer. Alas... I'm 4186 km away. Also, I'd offer up my oldest daughter who does want to move to Canada but alas, she doesn't have her driver's license yet.
But we can video chat sometime.
Valerie Roney
in reply to Sarah Sammis • • •Thanks! I am open to all sorts of things, driver's license would be very helpful, but nothing is crucial aside from someone grounded and kind. I need help with all the things, brain and body, company and problem solving. It's throw spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks time.
Vid chat sometime would be nice. 💛

in reply to Valerie Roney • • •@heleenkuiper
I'm Polish and I'm based in Greater Poland 🙁 but I'd help
Valerie Roney
in reply to Valerie Roney • • •☝️ also also, I need local IT help. Lots of fiddly things like the OS boot order on my laptop (w Ubuntu). Helping set up and sort out a bunch of stuff on my android phone.
Mostly stuff that would be easy peasy bits for somebody with those skills, but horribly grindy on my broken brain.
Can do as a fun social thing, or also happy to pay for the support, as I know just about everybody is struggling.
Boosts appreciated.

in reply to Valerie Roney • • •☝️yet another also:
Also, for context, I moved to #Guelph 18mos ago, got covid on the way here, which wrecked me, and left me with weird brain injury.
Am deeply grateful for my online community (you lot✨) that kept me sane and filled up my soul while I was too ill to get out and meet new ppl and build a network here.
But now the lack of local connection is making lots of stuff hard, and lonely. So am throwing spaghetti at all the walls.
So boop me, even if it's tangential to my asks.

in reply to Valerie Roney • • •"So boop me, even if it's tangential to my asks." Okay, I'm taking you up on that! Would you be interested at all in a friendly Discord server for "disabled people with caregivers"? It doesn't require that you *have* a caregiver, just that you *need* some sort of support in that way, including informal.
My headmates and I have been a part of this server for about a year now, and we really like it. We've gotten help before in there with the wording of caregiver ads!
No worries if not!

in reply to iwein • • •Probably lots of people could use similar pairings. Spoonies needing a lil extra support, and folks looking to pick up a bit of community minded work that nourishes their soul a bit.
