Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

It's good that you ate something @Bow Better than nothing at all.

I haven't tried their iced chai's, will try one on the next hot day!

We don't really have any traditions. Just tonight with the Bailey's.

I always make the kids sit in front of the Christmas tree and get a photo. They even got one with Santa this year much to their complaints!!

I've never had a Shandy before but my Dad used to drink them.

Have you go any traditions? Maybe you could start one in memory of your step dad.

Re: My Mosaic

I actually ate some lunch today… so that was good too… a good ol cheese toasty @Snowie

i guess we don’t really have any traditions either. We have fresh ham on toast for breakfast. Some nice OJ. Will have to remember to put mine and my Ds matching Christmas pjs.

mum and I just put all the presents under the tree- couldn’t do it any earlier cause of the dog, she’d constantly be into them. D is in her room playing and doesn’t know! Stockings and Santa gift come out once D is in bed. Mum made us all gorgeous stockings many years ago out of scrap Christmas fabric and then embroidered our names in gold thread.

Re: My Mosaic

Thats good to hear about lunch too @Bow

We normally have bacon, eggs and pancakes for breakfast. Then no lunch and a big dinner.

Oh matching pj's sounds like fun. I'm sure D enjoys it. What time will she go to bed tonight? Hopefully she falls asleep quickly, she might be too excited!

My mum made my kids personalised christmas stockings when they were born. Still use them every year. I think personalised ones are so nice.

Re: My Mosaic

Very easy @Bow and turned ok too.

Just finished wrapping. Going to miss dinner tonight as we’re going out to a “walk through Bethlehem” and our baby is guess who??? So excited.

Re: My Mosaic

Oh I like to hear what everyone does on Christmas Day @Snowie we have breakfast and then a big late lunch. And then probably nothing for dinner.

I love our matching pjs. I want to go to Peter Alexander on Boxing Day and see what sales they have…, get us some new ones and might even get mum a pair too.

D will probably have a little bit of a late night. Carols start at 8 and she’ll wanna watch some of them and then she’ll be up and down with the ‘I can’t sleep’.

Re: My Mosaic

Already looked on the PA website. They have their sale on there already @Bow They have some cute mickey mouse xmas ones I will probably end up getting!

I hope she is not up too late hon and doesn't wake you up too early.

Going to go watch the carols. I hope you have a great day tomorrow hon. Will probably check in some time tomorrow on here.

Sending much love to you all 💕💕

Happy Christmas @Bow ! Hope you and D have a great day 🙂

It will be the first Cmas without your stepdad...thinking of you and your mum.

Re: My Mosaic

Thank you @NatureLover merry Christmas to you. Thank you for being around on the forums today. I know your presence will be appreciated.

D was awake early, but managed to get a few extra minutes in bed cause I can’t just jump straight out of bed after waking up.

She (impatiently) waited for my mum to get up and we had fresh cut ham on toast for breakfast and then opened gifts.

im back in bed now. Battling with terrible nausea this morning. Have had some anti nausea meds and some ginger oil on my tummy, so hopefully I’ll be up again soon.

@Snowie I had a look at the PA website last night too…. Definitely going to get the Mickey Mouse pjs! They have some other non Christmas Disney pjs too….. 😉

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @Bow . Is it partly the thought of all the Cmas foods that's making you nauseous? I hope the feeling goes away 🤞
