It is common use in english at this point, not much use correcting it because its already been accepted and popularized within the 20-30 crowd.

My old roommate gave me Adulting, which has some tips that were super obvious (how to do dishes, how to pay bills, how to find car help, etc.), but also some that were like "how to tell your parents that you love them and you are not going to follow their advice this time." It's sooorta like a Guide to Being 23. Then again I am not a success story, as I've read the book many times and I have yet to escape my quarter-life crisis.

There's a book called Adulting.

I think as far as decoration inspiration goes, Pinterest can be helpful as to generate some jumping off points.

I'm reading Adulting, by Kelly Williams Brown and in the section on your living space/moving/decorating, she suggests looking to ones own closet for inspiration. It might not be the be-all-end-all or anything, however chances are it will provide a direction. Is your wardrobe entirely monochrome? Start in that direction. Is your wardrobe filled with blues? Maybe that's a good place to start.

Personally, I don't consider room decoration to be under the "fashion" subtitle, but I do think it belongs under the "personal expression" subtitle, which is sort of parallel to fashion as they are both under that umbrella. My apartment in the past has really reflected who I am but it depends how much time I expect to spend in a space [the longer I intend to stay, the more I will personalize it].

Sorry if this is too old a post to care about.

The book [Adulting] (https://www.amazon.com/Adulting-Become-Grown-up-Easy-Steps/dp/1455516902) has some good concepts in it even though its not directed at people who've gone through troubling times.

Perhaps you would be interested in the book Adulting by Kelly Williams Brown? (Admittedly I haven't had a chance to read it yet, she also has a blog http://adultingblog.com/)

Also, I think if you can imagine it, your subconscious can find a way to do it. If you can picture yourself as looking and feeling more competent I'm sure it will happen.

I'm reading this book right now: http://www.amazon.com/Adulting-Become-Grown-up-Easy-Steps/dp/1455516902

I've found it pretty inspiring, and the collection of advise is pretty universal. While most of it isn't directly related to your situation, I think it might help you find the mind to "grow up".

Also, maybe you could go to your supervisor and ask for advice. An employee coming up and saying "hey, I get the feeling I could be doing more around here but I genuinely am having a hard time finding things to do" stands out in a positive way. Don't be afraid to ask for more work if you find yourself idle.

There isn't much advice I can give but just to wish you good luck with you and her situation.

I really really really recommend buying this book because it kind of taught me a lot about "adult-ing." It might be helpful to your sister too. https://www.amazon.com/Adulting-Become-Grown-up-Easy-Steps/dp/1455516902/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1496024810&sr=8-1&keywords=adulting
