Canadian #DigitalNomad and #MultiPod, which I guess means I'm perpetually indecisive - can't decide where to live or what to do with my life :D

I live in an #RV and #travel across North America.

Long day on the road driving through Quebec. Stopped at a travel stop in Woodstock, New Brunswick for the night.

Tomorrow is the last leg of our journey to #NovaScotia

I guess the actual observation is:

a) how confused I was by the word "modules"

b) how much masking was involved in avoiding going down the rabbit hole of defining what a module is

#ActuallyAutistic observation of the day:

Interacting with NTs at work and they're asking me to review a list of "modules" we could sell, and it's just a random arbitrary list of features from our site.

And the whole time I can't stop thinking "ok but what do you even mean by module? how do you deliver said modules?"

Then when I ask, they don't know. They just made up the word because ?reasons

@hmm_cook Mastered it so well, it didn't even occur to me that I have needs until a couple of years ago, in my mid-30s.

It's really only been in the last couple of weeks, though, that I've really started to understand my needs better.

@dyani wow did you paint this? It's gorgeous πŸ’™ nice work!

@ModGalFri Alzheimer's (and dementia in general) is tough. We cared for my grandmother for a while, and it was challenging.

I totally get the codependency and people pleasing thing. I eventually went no-contact with my mother but it took a looooong time and a whole lot of self-doubt.

@ModGalFri I'm sorry for your grief πŸ’š That sounds tough.
@dyani no but that sounds amazing! I would definitely love that!

I can't get over how the #ActuallyAutistic community makes me feel.

I feel like I've come home to a family I never knew. A family that is way more like a family than the one I grew up with.

Thanks everyone for reaching out and responding to my barrage of self-discovery posts over the last couple of weeks. I appreciate it so much πŸ’šπŸ™

@ModGalFri YES!

Wait what was I supposed to be doing again?
