A bit about me^_^

Black and white profile photo of me.

I'm a girl from 1992 living in Denmark, that loves to use creativity and logic in everything I do^_^ I love to be creative with my hands, but then I also like electronics(for planning, games, decorating, moives-of which my husband and I have a huge collection) and im also learning Japanese, HTML5 & CSS3 coding, I've been writing a book on ADD, Building this website to share all those things etc. This is one of the ways I teach my experience to others who might be interested... I love teaching! ^_^

But the most important thing in my life is the Bible. I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses(I was baptised in spring 2014) and that makes me more happy than anything! To put my life in Gods hands is a privilege. Knowing that he is the creator of life and everything else. Just take a look at nature and you will see his love, wisdom and power. It makes me feel so little and so privileged to be used for he's purposes.. I can't wait to be in a perfect world with no sorrow, death, fear or stress, with no time limits and to see my lost family and friends again here on earth^_^ I never feel truly alone because I know I have my best friend(Jehovah, God) around always and everywere. There's nothing, I can't share with him, and nothing, he doesn't know already. And he gives me a peace of mind that I'm truly grateful for. As long as I am there for him, he will be there for me.

John 3:16: "For God loved the world so much that he gave his onlybegotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life." - go to jw.org for more info..

Last but not least I've now been married since December 2015, and with the covid-19 pandemic on top.. those have actually helped me substantially! covid-19 might not have been nice at all.. but it's as I often say: "nothing is so bad, that it ain't good for nothing". And for me covid-19 was a present of time and solitude without pressure from the social outside. I used it to make a LOT of diet changes, organizing, thinking about my way of approaching the difficult situations, making strategies, cleaning, making good habits and so on.. I might have done those things anyway but it wouldn't have been nearly as effecient. This can also be seen in the difficulties mentioned bellow, with the changes since I first wrote it about 7-8 years ago.


Me and ADD (& Asperger) in a Nutshell...

My life's biggest problem is that my mind doesn't care what is important, it only care's about what is interesting. I can think to myself that it is really important to get that milk out to the fridge, but my body won't budge and I end up watching that youtube video till its finished first. I can't get that milk to the fridge before it is REALLY important, because it has been standing there for at least an hour.. And then I can FORCE myself to get up and move that milk! It sound's kind of silly(even to me) but that's my life:| This is just an example from before my marriage, that shows how a small problem can become HUGE. Here's a row of normal Important daily tasks that (Always) becomes Obstacles/Problems for me and for many others like me..

  • Washing the Dishes
  • Washing Clothes
  • Making Food
  • Cleaning/tidying(things everywhere)
  • Taking a Shower
  • Going to Bed
  • Waking up

You might think that those are pretty common, but just multiply the normal difficulty with a hundred or something like that and then you might have an idea how I feel about doing those things.

But then my perfection and "Superfocus" comes to play...

Once I get started... I can't stop 0_o
Once I succeed to focus, it's almost impossible to unfocus! It has kept me from eating and sleeping(for a whole day and night) at worst.(back when I was single) Here's what normaly happened:

Washing the dishes:


Happened once a week(give or take a bit) or when in a mood that makes me feel like it(rarely).

Washing Clothes:


Um.. time-frame too embarrassing, I even re-used the clothes again till I saw spots or smelled something.

Making food:


When I'd been really hungry for some time and I began to think that I REALLY should eat something for my poor bodys sake.(I was actually pretty hungry when I first wrote this, but I kept writing:P )

Clean up:


I don't know why, but I just can't stop making a mess..(still do) and I hate mess o_o(the irony:o ). This normally only got done when someone was coming to visit, but then I'M FLYING about. And suddenly I'm very good at cleaning, but can't stop again till I hear the doorbell.(It ca never be too perfect;) ). So whenever I needed cleaning.. I just invited someone, and BOY it was clean afterwards:D.

Taking a shower:


I always hated to shower! Even though I love it too much, once I'm there.. so once a week I really need to shower. And I plan to do a quick 15 min. shower, but end up taking a 60 min. shower. I just can't stop! this is still true! I find that I'm so perfectionistic and thorough that it takes forever. and in these climate changing times, I sometimes find it embarising, until I reming myself that doing 1 hour a week is less water than 10 min. a day.^v^. also, washing the hair and skin every single day is not that healthy anyway.. it just dries out.
PS I do take an extra shower if I sweat a lot^_^'

Going to bed & getting up again:


Those were probably the HARDEST things EVER! NOT ONCE in my life(till I was married) had I succeeded in those two things on my own(without a pill or a call on the phone). When I suddenly came on time one day(Maybe 2-3 times a year). people would outburst: "hi Tanja! :D" In total amazement. And me be all shy by the attention from the whole room:*).
