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

So glad to hear that your group wasn't cancelled @Bow

Those cards are really good.

Well done on getting your bloods done, especially that you were alone. Thats a proud moment there.

Have you got much on tonight or just an easy night?

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow omg yessss more art!! I'm so glad to hear the group went ahead!!

Oh I love those cards!! Very cottagecore 😍

Good stuff pushing out of the comfort zone to tick the bloods box!! I know how hard that box can be to tick sometimes.

I have! Woke up and read for a while, which is a little unusual for me cos my brain takes at least an hour or two to 'load' when I first wake up 😅 Been reading these INCREDIBLE books, first was called Polysecure and second (that I'm reading now) is called Polywise. They're oriented towards folks practicing consensual non-monogamy (CNM), but the information in them about attachment theory, relationship trauma, navigating tricky conversations, dealing with jealousy and primal panic, conflict management, all of it, is soooo relevant to all humans! So much so that I reckon it's worth reading them both even if you never intend to practice CNM.

What you up to this evening? By the way, I'm guessing your mum will be away over the weekend, no? Does that mean no market?

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Eve7 👋 I’ll wave too! Sydney is gonna be warm tomorrow btw

hey @tyme hows your day?

@Snowie @Jynx not really up to much tonight. Just watching tv. Waiting for bedtime to arrive.

@Jynx you read a lot? Wish I could. I’d like to read. But my brain doesn’t remember/process much and by the time I get to the end of the paragraph I’ve often forgotten what I read.

Re: My Mosaic

I’m glad Sydney will be warm @Bow as it’s been cold and wet here the past two days . I don’t do cold 🥶 actually it is 20 which normally isn’t cold at all but the rain doesn’t help.

Re: My Mosaic

It's going to be 29 degrees here tomorrow @Bow

Then it'll be in the 30s in the days after.

My day has been pretty good. But when I came home, my niece had broken a glass jar on my sister's bed... oops!

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow I actually haven't for AGES. Not as much as I have been with this book! I totally get you though, it's especially the case where it's a dense book, like very wordy. I've had better success with audiobooks! You tried that?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

High 20s and climbing until mid next week here @tyme @Eve7 36 days ver the weekend! YUCK!

mums been following a FB page of the town we are going to for Christmas in the UK and it’s snowing already! Schools closed!

was it a big mess to clean up @tyme

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Oh hmmm audiobooks @Jynx i havent really tried. But think I’d have to be heaps interested in it otherwise my mind would wander! I can’t even get through a 1/2hr sermon!

I did read a book called ‘the girl who fell from the sky’ last year. I loved it! Read it during a hospital admission.

oh and no market this weekend. D is at her father’s Saturday… and I think 1/2 of Sunday. So lots of time to myself. Maybe I’ll mow the lawn? Or not lol 😂

mums back Thursday and then Friday is our twilight Christmas market!
