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

Sorry I missed you @rav3n had to take daughter to the shops to buy her father a birthday presents (I greatly dislike having to do this, but at least she is old enough to pick the gift herself). @tyme @Ru-bee if your around I’d really like a bit of company but if your busy totally ok

Yeah nightmares mostly. I can normally get back off to sleep but recently I haven’t been able to. Stay up feeling very unsettled.

it’s hot here today too and over the weekend. Yuck.

oh that’s cute with your bunny and it’s water! My kittens some how put their water everywhere too. I got them a bigger bowl that is heavier so they don’t knock it over but there is still water everywhere. I think they just play and probably end up IN the water too… there stuff ends up all over the place.

I didn’t do too much today. Had to take one of the kittens to the vet clinic for a check up. Had a bit of a rest and then did a coat of paint on my cupboard.

I'm around this evening @Bow and would love to keep you company

The kittens splashing around in the water sounds so cute, cheeky little ones! How old are they now?

What colour did you paint your cupboard?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Ru-bee thank you

the kittens are nearly 12 weeks old now. Getting big and so mischievous! Loving yo explore the place.

So I’m painting my display cupboard a navy blue. I’ve ordered some wallpaper off Temu to put inside the cupboard at the back. I’m doing a check pattern on the shelves and gold top and features! 🙂 can’t wait to see it all finished

do you have weekend plans?

Re: My Mosaic

Oh 12 weeks already! They'd be getting ready to find their forever homes soon right @Bow ?

What a beautiful thing you've been able to do for them, giving them a safe, loving space to grow

That sounds like it's going to look awesome! I'm sure the gold will really pop against the navy

I've got a weekend of family birthdays: Tomorrow is my parnter's yiayia's birthday so we're going out for lunch, and then Sunday is my dad's birthday so we'll go over there and have dinner and watch the footy. What about you, any plans?

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah they should have actually already gone @Ru-bee but one had an infection, which we think has cleared now, results from todays test should tell us. But then she has to have repeated negative tests for a few weeks I think they said. All of them have been having treatment to make sure the other 2 don’t get it as well. A bit annoying, but we love having them!

I hope it all comes together how I see it in my head! And yes the gold will look really good against the navy.

oh that does sound nice celebrating, but very socially draining! Are you an introvert or an extrovert?

tomorrow we are going to head out super early to our local charity garage sale. They open up their warehouse distribution center every now and then and allow the public to come in and grab all the goodies before they distribute them to individual op shops.
Then dropping daughter at her fathers for the day and I will then come home and do I’m not sure. Probably a load of washing. A coat of paint. Oh I have an order to do as well.

Sunday some really close friends from tassie who use to live up here are here for the weekend and will be sharing at church, so will go to church in the morning. It’s going to be stinking hot- so not looking forward to that, but excited to squeeze my friends. Then dropping D off at her father’s on the way home and I’ll be alone again for the afternoon.

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah the rest of the weekend will be spent having downtime and recharging @Bow I'm definitely an introvert, how about you?

Ooh I hope you find some goodies at the garage sale! That reminds me that I want to go to the op shop tomorrow

And having friend time on Sunday sounds like it'll be really nice! Do you get to see them often?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Oh very much an introvert @Ru-bee i definitely need lots of down time after a social outing!

I love op shopping, so hopefully I’ll find some goodies.

no unfortunately I don’t get to see them very often. I don’t get down to tassie much… and they don’t get up here much. Think I seen them last a couple of years ago when we went to tassie for a visit.

waiting for D to get sleepy so I can put her to bed and then go crawl into bed myself. Be nice when my body and brain was super tired that I would sleep well!

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Aw well that just makes this Sunday all the more special then @Bow!

Yes I love getting into bed when I'm so ready for sleep and can just pass out right away, it's a much better feeling than lying there waiting for sleep to come
