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

Sounds like you are all set @Bow

I really hope that they market goes well tomorrow and you sell lots.

Been trying to get rid of things. Clean out the shed a bit. Just gave 4 bikes away. I gave them to a man who does them up and then gives them away to children who's parents can't afford to buy them one. Such a great thing to do. Happy to help and give them away for free.

Thats annoying about D's uniforms. Some I will be able to sell but there is some that I'll just give away.

So glad we could chat tonight. I'm not sure if you realise how much you help me out too.

Goodnight hon 💕

Hey @Snowie ? Wondering how your day is going?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Hi dear @Bow

Day is going ok. Been awake since about 4 though. Woke up from a flashback and just couldn't settle again. Eventually got up and did a big pile of ironing. At least its done.

Just been on a Bunnings trip. Been asking H to fix the lid on my saucepan for ages. He finally did something about it today!

Its cold and wet here today. Sunshine is all gone.

How are you going? How did the market go?

Re: My Mosaic

Sorry your sleep was interrupted @Snowie thats rough. But yay for ironing all being done. Don’t remember the last time I ironed!

I didn’t sleep the best either. Storm was rumbling when I went to bed last night.,, and dog was scratching at my door. Went and wrapped her up in a blanket on the couch. But she wouldn’t stay. So I put a basket at more door so she wouldn’t scratch. Got to sleep. Woke to the hugest loudest thunder crack at 4am. So loud. Was waiting for the dog to smash the door down! But she didn’t. And then I woke just before my alarm at 5:30am. D’s bedroom door was wide open. Then the dog comes out of there. Think she slept under D’s bed all night.

market went ok. Not our best, but we still sold a bit. Was heaps of stalls, like the most I’ve seen there, but just not the foot traffic this weekend.
but I used my new market stand today for the first time and it worked perfectly. Quick and easy to set up unlike my old one. Bit chuffed with how it all worked out.
it was hot too. Glad to be home in front of the fan


I need a trip to bunnings. Decided I want a new market chair. I got a low and deep camping chair. This old body struggles to get up out of it.

Re: My Mosaic

Hopefully I can get a bit more sleep tonight @Bow See how I go.

Sometimes I find I can settle and go back to sleep, just didn't work out this morning.

Sounds like the dog finally found a safe place to sleep. Mine just takes up half the bed!

That was good about your new market stand. Anything to make setting up a bit easier. Glad to hear you sold some.

Have you got many more in the lead up to Xmas?

I totally agree with the chair hon. Some of them are very hard to get out of. One where you don't sink as low would be much better.

Have you got much on tomorrow or can you just take it easy after a big day today?

Re: My Mosaic

Got a market on Friday evening @Snowie twilight one. And then our country market the first Saturday in December. The one we did today is on again on the 21st. Not sure if we are doing that or not.

Tomorrow I’ll do the groceries and then I have a dietitian appointment in the morning. SW usually comes on Mondays too? Really hoping she does.

what about you? You got much on this week?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

At least your mum will be back for the other markets @Bow Make it a bit easier on you.

I hope your SW comes tomorrow hon.

Mum's got gp appt. tomorrow morning so will take her to that and then she'll want to go up the street, so will take her there too. She's the type that has to look at everything and touch everything so it will be a slow process.

No other appt's this week so hoping for an uneventful week.

Re: My Mosaic

Seeing you amongst the husband waiting outside all the shops for their wives…. But you’re waiting for your mum @Snowie ! I actually have a little chuckle when I see it, especially this time of the year cause there is so many of them.

Just had some toast for dinner. Not much hungry. Wanted something cold but don’t really have anything. I do have a tin of pineapple in the freezer though. I like it nice and cold.

spent some time down with the kittens a little while ago. My scales are messing up. Need to find our other kitchen ones and check them with that. I also grabbed a few ice cubes and put them on a plate for them. They were all so cautious. So slow to get close to it. They all eventually touched it but didn’t really like them, too cold! Does your dog like ice cubes? Our does, but they gotta have cucumber in them otherwise nope, not good enough for her!

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Even if we went to the shops a few days before hand @Bow she would still have to touch the same things again. It takes a lot of my patience. I am the type to make a list, get in and get out as quick as possible. Unfortunately I just can't let her go by herself. She doesn't remember how to use her card or money anymore so have to do it for her.

Never tried pineapple in the freezer. Might have to.

Also never tried her with ice cubes. She does like zooper doopers though!! Found D giving her some awhile ago.

I can imagine the kittens still being so little they fit on the scaes!

Re: My Mosaic

Oh that’s hard @Snowie 😞 im sorry

Oh you reminded me of my pineapple! I best get it out lol

you should totally try her with ice cubes. Mum cuts up cucumber and blueberries and puts that in with it too. Do you have aldi down there? They have doggy ice cream! It has peas and carrots in it!

I put the kittens in a little container and then on the scales. But they wriggle too much now so I gotta be so quick to get their numbers.
