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

It’s just stuff, but it’s all attached to some kind of meaning @Jynx a memory, something. Some stuff is in boxes and crates from our last move that I haven’t even touched. Trying to declutter and get rid of things.

hmm consumables that I shouldn’t have? I imagined how I might dispose of them by giving them to someone. Thought about who that somebody might be. But then just stashed them away again.

but so many emotions today. All the feels. Finding old journals. Gosh some of them words were real dark. I was brave back then to allow them to be out on paper.

read about how I use to cry a lot back then. Feel like a dry ol cow now days.

@Bow

I know your brain tryna be mean by comparing you to a cow (heyyyyyy.... you stop that!! [Psst dw still accept all of you wholly even the means parts] kthxbye 🤣) but now I'm thinking about how cute cows are... they are just big puppy dogs and I kinda wish we were both cows... frolicking in a field... 🐄🐮

...instead of you know, in the world where taxes exist 😒

Anyway, my mind is all over the place tonight and I may need you to err... clarify what 'consumables' are in this context? You can use a TW or email if need be!

Do you intend to keep the journals? Hang onto that darkness?

You don't have to feel ready or even think it's a good idea but... maybe they could fuel a fire huh?

I actually love burning old pieces of the past I'm ready to release. Plus, fire = pretty!

I’ve spent all day in bed. I really wanted to go to church, so did daughter. But could hardly walk this morning. Back was so sore. Shoulder so sore too.

Hey @RachSANECEO I mentioned these to you ages ago, old SANE fact sheets that I was given when inpatient back in 2005. Found them again today while packing to move. Says down the bottom that Sane had a ‘bookshop’.

Re: My Mosaic

Oh yes I remember you saying that you were going away @rav3n glad you had a nice time away.

I didn’t really get up to much. Packing and sorting. Spent most of yesterday in bed cause my back and shoulder was really bad. Was going to go to church, but oh well.

now I am dealing with my daughter who is having a big meltdown. I don’t cope well with them 😩

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow how's the packing & sorting, still got lots to do?

aww nooo sucks about the shoulder and back pain, have heat packs and ointments been helpful? or even a gentle self-massage?

meltdowns are tough, hope it's calmed down a bit? did the easter egg hunt for D go okay?
