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

Mum made it to tassie fine.

D enjoyed her first day back at school yesterday. She’s having a sleepover at school tomorrow night, so if she manages to sleep, I’ll be on my own tomorrow night.

my psych cancelled on me today. Wasn’t at work. It’s frustrating cause my appointments are fortnightly. She might try and squeeze me in some time.

today I had my arts and craft group. I facilitated it and taught watercolours with a quote over the top. Everyone really enjoyed it and was pleased with what they created. This is what I made for my daughter.

 

my mood ain’t good tonight. Struggling with prepping dinner and eating.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow ,

That sounds so tough. Anything you can think of to help you unwind a little?

Cuddles with D?

Thinking of you.

Re: My Mosaic

I don't want to add extra 'noise', but I'm wondering if listening to music or sounds will 'drown out' the unwanted noises? @Bow

Can you find 6 hidden words in this picture?

Re: My Mosaic

Doesn’t usually help @tyme

just need to sleep disappear into nothingness

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Awww @Bow . Hugs. Please know we are here for you.

I recognise 'disappearing' may feel the way out at this time. It sounds incredibly hard to sit with these thoughts and noises on your own.

Please reach out to speak to someone if you feel the need to:

Lifeline 13 11 14

SCBS 1300 659 467

Whilst they may not be able to 'solve' things, they are there to sit with you.

Re: My Mosaic

I need to hold my shit together while mum is away @tyme but the temptations and urges have started already. This afternoon was hard.

I need to be with people but it’s not feeling safe here.
