My Mosaic

Sigh my email notifications aren’t working again. @tyme @rav3n @Snowie Don’t know if any of you are still around

I'm around @Bow arg that's annoying. Thank you for letting us know

I was just looking into this for you @Bow and I believe at the moment if it doesn't resolve itself then we're asking members to submit the issue through our technical feedback form

It’s really hard to feel connected and get support when notifications aren’t working @Ru-bee

im running a bit … no a lot flat tonight. Lotsa things on my mind

Sorry to hear that. Are you still feeling quite worn out from yesterday @Bow?

A little @Ru-bee plus just had a rough night last night. I woke you up a couple of nightmares and then also dealt with some medical complications from an ED behavior. It’s very lonely inside my head. Lotsa thoughts. It’s scary and feeling stuck.

I'm glad that you're able to be connected here @Bow what do you reckon would help at the moment? Do you need a space to talk about the thoughts? Or would distraction from them maybe feel safer for you at the moment?

It’s just a horrible vicious loop yeah @Ru-bee A lot of things are really frustrating me at the moment. I don’t really have any supports for my ED and none in the foreseeable future either. And while yes addressing some of my trauma and many other things will be helpful, it’s its own gigantic monster too. It really sucks. And with this medical stuff popping up that I don’t really feel like I have the capacity to address on my own I feel like it’s just gonna get worse and the potential for it to become a lifelong physical disability feels very real. Which is scary.

But beyond that…. A distraction?

That all sounds like it could quickly become overwhelming @Bow and, yes, scary too. I know it's been mentioned above, but have you found the Butterfly foundation to be helpful for a sort of interim support until you're able to get some specific ED support?

Okay distraction, hmmm. Do you have any crafts you're working on at the moment? Any recent legos? I'd love to hear about it. I might not be able to reply tonight but I'll be back in tomorrow to read!

Yeah I have found them helpful in the past @Ru-bee … the butterfly foundation. I guess I’m just a bit cautious with what I share there cause they can overreact at times. But maybe I can give them a try.

yeah I’ve got a few craft projects on the go at the moment. Making sure I have all my stock up to date for markets. We have 4 markets in November, 2 being special Christmas events. I also have some Christmas themed pieces that I need to make some up. Have a few left over from last year, so added some more. I also have a few end of year teacher gifts that I make. So need to make some up of them. One I am redoing as I have a cricut now. And… I’m adding some little desk calendars using my cricut machine. That’s been driving me insane cause I’m using a template that someone else made within the program and I’m editing it which is being painful! But I’ve finally got it fixed!

And then I have my worry stones.
And my junk journal. Haven’t really been doing much of either of them cause I’ve been busy doing all of the above plus the kittens.
