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 🙂

Hey @Bow

What's going on for you this morning? If there's something that you're not able to talk about here on the forums, remember that there's certainly a support service where you can talk about it. If it's something on your mind or something difficult that's going on today I'd encourage you to reach out.

What time does your mum get home today?

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Ru-bee

thanks, but not really worth burdening someone else with stuff.

my mum gets in later this arvo.

Re: My Mosaic

May I challenge that idea @Bow by suggesting that that's exactly what these support services are for?

You deserve a space to be able to voice what's happening for you right now, and to have someone listen and support you ❤️

Hey @Bow ,

Is your mum back yet? Do you need to pick her up?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @tyme

mums home now. I feel like I can breathe a sigh of relief. But I’m also angst up.

As soon as my daughter got home from school we headed into the airport to pick her up. We drove around in circles for ages cause they have changed the roads at the airport so much and I couldn’t find the usual spot I go park and wait at and I refuse to park and pay. Literally as soon as I found the spot and parked mum called to say she was there!
We then went to ikea for a wander and dinner cause it was peak hour. We still got a bit of traffic on the way home but it wasn’t as bad.

how are you?

Heya @Bow ,

Wow. Sounds like you've been around the world! Any cool ideas from Ikea?

I hear your sigh of relief.

I guess any change can take time getting used to - both her going away and her coming back.

My day has been pretty busy. Tomorrow morning, I have to take my car for a service at about 7am. It'll take about an hour.

Re: My Mosaic

Oh it felt like it @tyme

@I got some shelves for Lego 😂 and a plan outdoor mat…. Gonna have a go at painting something on it…. Perhaps an idea for my arts and craft group.

yeah the change is always difficult, but you know what???? I just crawled into bed. Daughter is still up, I didn’t have to worry about the dog or locking the house up and stuff. Took some extra prn cause we got zero plans tomorrow and I’m wanna sleep

you on the other hand…. Yuck. 7am car service. Will you just wait? With coffee?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah, I'm going to have to wait there. It's only an hour. They have free coffee there - proper coffee...... not instant! So I don't mind have a few coffees.. mochas... expressos...

I'm going to come out a bit caffeinated, but that's okay @Bow

Rest up! Please take photos of the lego stuff later!

Actually, come to think of it, last year, I bought the lego boxes from ikea. The big white ones. Not sure if you saw any when you went to ikea
