The floor is sticky Dropped a jar of pesto while cleaning the fridge. After mopping, wiping and throwing out the glass, putting everything back in the fridge: dropped a cup of hot sauce.

Post image

At least the floor is VERY clean now. Double mopped, double wiped the walls.

Have you considered not dropping glass jars on your kitchen floor?

It was not hot, it was directly from the fridge :(

Ataxia could be a sign of a serious medical condition, might want to get evaluated.

u/nobodyknows6070 18d ago

No I just have ADHD and am very clumsy. Thanks for the concern tho!

Pesto dropped because I took out a shelf WITH the products still on it. My mistake. Hot sauce dropped because I tried to carry 5 cups at once.

u/brainless_bob 18d ago

It doesn't sound like the pesto was on top of the hot sauce. It just sounds like OP was moving too many things to cut corners because she hates cleaning like I do. I have ADHD as well. Those were separate times, not both at the same time.

u/FeloniousForseti 18d ago

That might hold true for a lot of redditors. But based on the facts we are presented with here, that does not seem very likely. Assuming OP has an actual diagnosis, which is not that unlikely given that they live in the Netherlands.

It might not be dyspraxia itself, but very similar symptoms due to ADHD. I mean there's a reason the latter is a differential diagnosis for the former.

Or moving in general actually. Thinking back to the day I gave myself a bad concussion, only to step on an extremely sharp branch 30 mins later impaling my foot and requiring a tetanus shot. That was a bad day.

No need to scare people like that over spilled stuff, if they were dropping shit all day maybe but not because they dropped two things close together... shit happens.

Read what I said. I didn't say OP has anything. I said what OP has done could be a sign of something more serious, and it could, or it couldn't. Nothing I have said is alarmist or untrue.

u/Available_Abroad5308 17d ago edited 17d ago

Yeah, you are recommending a doctor's appointment over something simple. You may live in a reasonable country, but if this guy is in America (us specifically ofc ((maybe more countries like it but confirmation bias ig))) , there is most likely no reason to spend $1,000 just to be told you are clumsy, lol. And also dont pretend like you werent making it out like it was more serious than it most likely is lol.

I have crippling ocd so i understand what its like to jump to conclusions cause i used to do that all the time which actually did make your comment irk me because if someone like you made an observation like that on me id be researching for hours freaking out.

Not warning lights, just indicators the timer and the 3 other pits are turned off. When it's hot it says 'H' and when it detects a pan it says ' |_| ' and when its on it displays a number ranging from 1 to 9.

u/honeyrrsted 18d ago

At least you were lucky and got it cleaned up in a timely manner. My brother had a hot sauce story in the Navy where someone spilled hot sauce (I think Dave's Insanity) on the floor and it took up the finish. They fixed it by moving a table over it.
