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

I generally have a few appointments every week @Jynx sometimes it’s like me every day. So yep, piles and piles of appointments. And for what??? I’m in such a bad place right now. I really don’t give any shit

Re: My Mosaic

Very frustrating @Bow - sounds like you're just over it! Which is very understandable if you feel like none of it is helping right now. Just as a thought experiment, what would it look like to cancel some of them, give yourself some respite? Like, would taking some time to rest and replenish, focus on other stuff be a good thing? Or would it be potentially exacerbate your current distress/exhaustion by not having that regular support?

I ask because sometimes, we need a break, even from the healing work.

Re: My Mosaic

I don’t know if people will let me do that @Jynx to be honest. Especially with the compromised medical state that I am currently in. If I cancel or don’t show up, people will worry and come knocking.

I do try and make the most of the days that I don’t have appointments. And I do rest when I can. But at the same time, my compulsion to exercise doesn’t help.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow aye it could be more trouble than it's worth. But perhaps still something to talk to your supports about, if it feels like it could be beneficial?

When is your next appt-free day, and what are you planning to do on it?

Re: My Mosaic

@Jynx Thursday this week. No appointments. Yet anyways. I’m not sure what I will do other than my usual exercise. Most of the time when I don’t have appointments I like to just try have a day at home. It’s nice not to have to go out…. And see people.
Maybe I will do some Lego with my daughter. Some painting.

Friday will be a day at home too. My support worker is doing a home visit which is easy. And then I have to stay at home and be prepared to help cause we have a new fridge coming.

Saturday we will try and get to the movies. We want to go see the new wonka movie.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow aww lego and painting sounds pretty magical! Something to look forward to 😊

Oof I hope you don't have to move the fridge yourself! But also, I do like getting stuff like new fridges or things that give you a chance to refresh/sort through old stuff! And maybe you can fill the new freezer with zooper doopers for you and your D hehe.

Oh cool new Wonka movie! You'll have to tell me how it is! I didn't even know they were making one lol 😋

I'm off for tonight hun, lovely chatting as always. I hope you have a restful evening, and I'll catch you tomorrow if you're around 😁💜
