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

Exactly @rav3n !! And yep… I’ve done a lot of heavy lifting. And a lot of taking things up stairs- mum can’t lift much and she also needs to hold on when going up and down stairs… and our new house is all upstairs! Our double garage downstairs is chock full of stuff we need to sort through and bring some stuff up! We also have a lot of furniture that we don’t need here.

yes, I like our new house. Will be good when we get everything sorted and in its place.

it certainly has got cold eh. It’s raining again here. Hard getting out of bed some eh.

cleaning and last day at the old house tomorrow. Wednesday I have arts and craft- I’ll see what they are doing and decide whether I go or not. Thursday psychologist. Saturday we are going to ikea!

Re: My Mosaic

Maybe you can drop her off and come back home to bed @Bow

I've been known to do that with S!!

Will you make it to arts and craft on Wed or just chill out in front of the tv?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

I think there will certainly be days like that @Snowie !

im not sure if I’ll get to arts and craft yet. We need to get some groceries at some point.

you got much on this week?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow yikesss stairs are so exhausting to climb up and down on with boxes!! i'm praying that you don't experience too much and that you all be able to rest up by the end of the week!! oo that reminds me, did you finish that painting project you working on with the chairs being those bright pink/blue/orange i think it was?

yes it issss! oo ikea shopping sounds so fun!

Re: My Mosaic

Well that’s all done. Cleaned and keys handed back to the old house. The real estate was an absolute jerk. He made a fuss about everything, especially the garage! That floods and leaks!

I feel a bit emotional. Traumatized. If that’s even possible?

now to begin the unpacking

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

So glad that is all over for you @Bow

I think it's normal to feel emotional. You have so many memories in that house, both good and bad.

Yes unpacking begins, but I hope you give yourself some time, just to rest and relax.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow Good afternoon!

Do you have a favourite type of plant?

Also not being able to take care of plants due to mental health is so real. It can be hard to stay on top of. 💛

Ow, that sounds very uncomfortable for you. I am hoping that you get better sleep with your new bed. 🤞

Perhaps you could make a card for when you're feeling unsure too! And also, for when you're feeling good. I would love to see some little characters for those emotions. 🤩

A couch day sounds so nice, especially with the weather change. What do you watch together?

Today has been slow, nothing too eventful... other than a new 2L water bottle, which I am hoping will encourage me to drink more water (I am bad at this haha). You?

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie That house was a bad house mental health wise. My mh declined terrible there. It’s where my ED started. My first very serious attempt.

but it’s where I found sane.

currently sitting on the couch in the dark. We lost power at some point last night… energy provider have been around the street all day and it’s still not back on.

how’s your day been?
