My Mosaic

Relieved to hear that progress has been made today @Bow ♥

@Bow awww yissss snuggles are da bomb! Hope you get to hold her in your arms again all too soon 💜

Oh nice one, yeah I sometimes struggle with fine motor skills-based activities. A friend once tried to teach me to crochet - it was so funny, he showed me, I tried to do it exact same, and I bungled it. Then he even tried to hold my hands (like that pottery scene in the movie Ghost but without all the sexual tension 🤣) and guide me and it still didn't work! He was like 'I honestly don't understand, how is this so hard' hahaha. But I think embroidery might be more approachable, it's just stab the thread where you want the line to be, right? Yes. It must be that simple. Nailed it 😋

Naw not sick, just the monthly visit from a demon who wants to shred my uterus 😖 I'm quite lucky in that I don't get nasty pains or any PMS symptoms that are too debilitating most of the time. But every few months it's like 'Muahaha this time it's gonna be HELL' and I end up couch-bound for a couple days. Don't worry, got plenty of fluids, painkillers, and might even get some take away to treat myself. Just wish I had some chocolate!

Yeah I love rearranging! My house is a bit peculiar, it has all sliding doors and they're in weird enough positions that I can only arrange my bedroom in one way. Loungeroom is easier to muck about with, except I got this big couch I need to get rid of before I can finish putting it all together.

Oh wow would have loved to see that mural! Wish I could paint my walls haha.

Aww ty lovely, I do try my best to be a good friend. We were talking a bit about what we view to be the most important pillars of friendship - my besite says for her it's trust, honesty, and respect, all tied together with open communication and reciprocity. I reckon she's right on the money hey! I'm lucky to have her.

Hopefully tomorrow after school @Jynx i did an online grocery order for mum this morning, it was delivered this arvo…. D was telling me all about the treats I got her 🫣 Poptarts were 1/2 price too!

Haha, yes embroidery would probably be easier. You have the picture there and you yep stab the picture with the thread and fill in the bits. I’ve tried crocheting. Mum taught me, I managed to crochet my daughter a pixie hat and that was it. I’d have no idea how to do it now though.

oh yes that evil demon. I am very much the same, get that horrendous reminder every few months that I am in fact woman and I must suffer. I thought when I got one ovary out that it would only visit every second month, but I was wrong! I’ve found an oil blend that is rather helpful for my tummy. But yes chocolate would be good!

my room is prettt massive and I have a king bed. So I have lots of options to move things around but I don’t. Quite happy with how it’s all set up. Desk overlooking a window and my garden. I just need more Lego display space!

my mural was a seas scape… ya know back in the 90s when every teenage girl went through a love of dolphins! 😂 we painted when we moved into our current rental. Just asked the landlord if we could do it and they just cover the cost of the paint- which we never ended up getting reimbursed anyways!

yes they are most certainly very important parts of friendship. I definitely have that in my best friend too. She’s in qld at the moment!

@Bow oh yum, I haven't had poptarts in forever!

I would go get some embroidery kits buuuut I should probably finish my other projects first (laughs in ADHD).

Yeesh, yeah you'd hope it was a little less horrifying but... ugh the woes of it all. What kind of oil blend?

Haha yep more Lego display space would be ace! A whole shelf full hehe. With little lights and everything! That would be so cool.

Aww so pretty! Never was a dolphin person myself, I was really into dragons! Had a whole shelf full of dragon figures haha.

Aww yay! Will you get to catch up with your bestie soon?

Poptarts are so yumm @Jynx I only ever buy them when they are 1/2 price and only the chocolate ones! I remember when I did my camp counsellor stint in America we always had them for breakfast. So they give me sweet summer camp memories!

hehe… I’d imagine you’d have a few projects on the go with your ADHD. I don’t even have adhd and I have plenty of things on the go. Got boxes of half finished stuff. Must get in and grout our mosaic work we did over the holidays.

It’s just a ‘women’s balance’ blend. Mum was really into doterra. Some of them are really good and heaps helpful! And I diffuse some in my room to make it smell good.

I didn’t see you as a dolphin person! You know there is a super cute little red dragon Lego set? Not heaps detailed, but super cute. Seen it at the shops recently and thought of you.

I think my friend is back mid next week. They are up there inputting into heaps of churches. They are back for a couple of weeks (thankfully the weeks that mum is away for) and then they are off to Adelaide and then tassie. They travel heaps and always seem to be away when I am in hospital!

I’ve just had my last IV infusion for the day and now gotta wait for one more lot of meds. I hate how some Drs chart meds! All at different times. And then the night shift do a round of obs when they start at 10pm. No early night here! And then they do obs again at like 5am 😩

@Bow oof, so many interruptions to your sleepies! Yikes.

I am off for tonight, got super busy so can't reply to it all properly - but I think it's really sweet of you to think of me when seeing dragons!!

Feel free to tag me tomorrow hun, I'll try to check back in anyway but yeah, always lovely chatting.

Have good sleepies, nighty night! 💜

Thanks for chatting and keeping me company @Jynx enjoy the rest of your evening and I will no doubt tag you tomorrow 🙂 💕

Glad to hear things are moving in the right direction @Bow

Hopefully you are not in there for much longer.

Sending love 💜💜

Hey @Snowie im a bit tired today. Got woken a few times overnight and my throat is rather sore today. I had a chai this morning, first something in quiet a few days. I find it soothing on my throat.
my bloods are good though so they have increased the rate of my feds.
my support worker came in this morning, we had a good chat. But she forgot my embroidery.
think mum and D are coming in today, which I am looking forward to. Might stretch my legs a bit and go for a walk with them.

How are you? And what are you up to today?

So glad things are moving in the right direction now @Bow amongst all the chaos at the start.

I'm glad you are still getting support from you team and that they can come and visit you in hospital.

That will be nice to see D. I'm sure she misses you at home. You don't have to ask but how much does she understand about your situation?

I got braces on top and bottom. Pain is settling down a bit so can eat more foods now. Tighten them tomorrow so will see how that goes. Might be back to mush!

I am struggling. I don't want to go in but at the same time I need Friday to come quickly.

Have spoken to the kids and my mum. Of course my mum had plenty to say but at least that conversation is over now.

Not up to much today. Went up the supermarket and bumped into someone 😒Small talk needed but said I was rushing to an appt. (which I wasn't) so got out of that quickly.
