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 🙂

We must've been out together then blobbed together! I like that terminology "blobbed"! @Bow

Do you have a Costco? It's next level headache for me... after Bunnings.. my head goes round and roudn when I go into Bunnings.

So what I do now is that if I need anything, I order it and pick it up, or I write down the aisle and location, go straight in and straight out. It's the only way I manaage at Bunnings.

Did you get anything cool at the op shop?

We must’ve @tyme

we have a Costco about 30mins from us but we don’t go. Did for a bit, but always spent more money! The fuel was good and I used that for a while.

I generally like bunnings. I usually like most shops and wandering about. But lately it has been more stressful. I got a couple of things, but mum had a big list!

the op shop. This lady opened it to support the homeless. Things are sooo cheap! Like today I got 3 books (to turn into art), a desk drawer caddy thing, a paint pallet and D got a squishmallow. $3 total. I gave her $5. She really needs a bigger shop!

Ops shops have amazing things. My sister is an op shopper. I like the things that come from there, but I hate the actual shopping. It's too stressful for me. Actually, I don't like shopping in store in general. If I want something, I get it delievered @Bow But that's just me.

Ops shops would be sooo great for knick knacks for your craft! I LOVE your craft so much. It's so professionally done.

I'm going to a wedding in August so I hope to get a canvas and cricut a bible verse on it or something.

The cricut is still sitting on my loungeroom floor.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @rav3n I’m tired today. Had a bad night.

I also sent my SW this big long text in the middle of the night. And the one thing she picked out of it was feeling alone. 😩 don’t think that was my point 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ anyways. She was going to come walk and talk with me, she had an hour free. But I was busy.

yes. Tomorrow. Dropping daughter off at her fathers and then mum and I are going to the bookshop.

how are you?

Re: My Mosaic

glad she offered to walk and talk, would've been nice if she had given you an earlier heads up about the offer, hey @Bow

exciting!! hoping you get to add some to your collection tomorrow!!

i'm doing alright, been recharging my social battery in preparation for tonight. i'm going to a horror-themed escape room, there'll be live actors in it. i've been to one before and it was absolutely terrifying (and funny). hoping we'll survive this one!

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah @rav3n some notice would have been good. Now gotta wait until Tuesday when I can see her next.

im sure I will! Hopefully they aren’t too expensive.

oh an escape room that sounds cool. I haven’t done one of them before. Totally get needing to charge your social battery in preparation for it though.

my mum and D are about to head out to the movies. I could have gone but not feeling up to it.
