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 🙂

Aww wow @Bow that little pebble art is soooo cute! What did you use for the little cherry blossoms, are they lego? Amazing!

Hey @Snowie 👋

I slept ok last night. I think my new meds are helping, I’ve slept til like 8am the last 2 mornings instead of waking at like 5:30-6…. 8am maybe an issue of a school morning!. Only issue is that I’ve been on one of them before and they cause weight gain… which is a massive problem.


how are you today? Got plans?

im on the treadmill at the moment. I’ve been watching ‘this is us’. Have you seen it? I really like it.
Once I’m done gonna go through daughters clothes. She has way too many, a lot are too small and overflowing drawers.

Re: My Mosaic

Glad your new meds are helping hon @Bow Unfortunately we have to deal with some side effects at times. However, I know how much it will affect your ED. I hope it doesn't happen for your sake.

Hopefully with an alarm set you can wake up for the school run. It never seems to end! Has your D got 2 weeks off after this week?

I haven't seen 'this is us' before nor ever heard about it. I have been watching Criminal Minds.

They do grow so quickly don't they. Sometimes it is hard to keep up. They certainly outgrow their clothes before they outwear them. I'm lucky that D has stopped growing but now steals my clothes since we are the same size. S on the other hand is still growing. He now wears a size 11 in shoes!!

Not up to much today. Already done the washing and ironing so can tick them off my list. Would like to clean the bathrooms but that might have to wait until tomorrow. The Formula 1 car racing is on today so will be watching that.

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah new meds has my ED more on edge @Snowie very worried about the possibility of weight gain.

yes I may just have to set an alarm for school mornings. Mum is an early riser and often gets up and does D lunch. But I like to do something.., don’t feel as bad then.
D has another week after this week I think… school holidays don’t line up with Easter this year for us for some reason.

cleaned out 3 bags of D clothes. 2 for my friend for her granddaughter and 1 bag for vinnies. And thankfully she doesn’t really need any new clothes to replace them. Just some winter tights for schools.
that’s cool that you and d can share clothes… do you stew her clothes too? Me and mum often share stuff. Or I’ll have a clean out and she takes some of mine.
that’s a big hoof size for your S!!

I did some crafting this afternoon. More mosaic and pebble art. I want to try and sell some of them.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow totally get the weight aspect with meds, it can be hard.

It does sound like you’ve had a productive day. I hope you are able to see that as a win 💖

Mosaic and pebble art sound relaxing. I wish my assignment was a self care art piece because don’t social worker students need lots of self care and then I could do a reflection. I’ve got to get a 2000 words essay worth 40% written up. I’m more than halfway through, it’s due Tuesday at 23:59pm
