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

Just had dinner here too @Bow Cooked fried rice and this beef dish. It's actually a recipe my mum used to cook when I was young. Kids and H love it!

You should be proud of yourself hon for making a few changes. That in itself can be really difficult to do. I hope you can do something about the heartburn.

I hope your SW is back on Sunday hon. I know our supports need to take time off at times, but it still doesn't make it any easier for us.


Almost done with the school run hon. Then you don't HAVE to get up in the morning. A disco sounds exciting. I hope she enjoys it. Oh a photo would be great!

I've been selling all of S's old text books and uniform on a facebook page for his school. At least I can get rid of it and make some money!

Re: My Mosaic

Okay, this is good to know! So, you have your support worker, dietician, GP, and our lovely @Snowie.

What would like to add onto that list?

AH! That is soo cute and creative. 🎄💛

PS: Have you had any water today? (This is my reminder to have some now!)

Re: My Mosaic

That sounds nice @Snowie its nice when we can keep cooking things from our childhood.., and the memories that they bring. We had chicken Kiev and salad. Had to cook chicken nuggets for D cause she don’t like the garlic butter stuff.

Is hard to feel proud of myself.., so much self talk inside my head. Can’t say any of it here though.

oh I am so looking forward to no school runs! Even though I am up early. I was awake at 5:30am this morning. Tossed and turned until 6am and then had to get up cause my back was stiff and sore. But no more making lunches, harassing D to get ready and out the door, pick ups. Yes!

that’s good that you can sell off sons school stuff. He gets his results tomorrow?

Re: My Mosaic

Hmmmm @AuntGlow ya want honesty???? Nah actually nevermind.

maybe I’ll get a psychologist soon.

No. No water. But I’ve had a bottle of cordial. But I will go get a drink now cause I am thirsty and haven’t drank enough today

Re: My Mosaic

I love chicken kiev @Bow or anything with garlic in it!

I know it's hard to feel proud hon, hard to acknowledge that we are trying. That talk can be so hard to ignore. It's easy to believe it when it is constantly in our head.

Yea that will be nice hon. No having to rush out the door by a certain time. No dealing with the school traffic.

S got his results last week. He did better than I thought, especially since he was not really into school.

Re: My Mosaic

Always honesty!! hehehe @Bow

A psychologist would be a wonderful addition - one that embraces all of you and how you communicate. 🫶

Cordial sounds yum! What flavour?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie Garlic is yum!

im glad your S did well. Congrats to him!

do you have anything on tomorrow ?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

It be nice to not feel so ignored here @AuntGlow being honest like you asked. Just how I feel.

yeah hopefully they will be able to allocate me one in the new year. Maybe even my CM will have some news about it for me tomorrow.

I drink sugar free cordial. Apple and blackcurrant is my favourite. I also like lime.

what are you doing for Christmas?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow S was happy so I was too. He never was really into school and doesn't want to go to Uni. Hopefully within the next year he works out what he wants to do.

Dogs gets groomed tomorrow morning. It's a mobile dog groomer so the lady comes to the house and does it. She needs a cut!

Was thinking of going to the shops tomorrow to try and finish of the shopping. Will see how I feel tomorrow.

Have you got anything on?

Re: My Mosaic

Our dog had a bath and summer slip last week @Snowie shes a different dog! She just chased my cat down the passage though!

I have my CM appointment tomorrow morning. Was then suppose to see my best friend but she has had to change that to the afternoon. I have a couple more things to get at the shops too. Hopefully then I will be all done! Then I get to do the best bit.,.. wrapping!

i really gotta drop a library book off too. They have been emailing me for months that it is overdue and today they sent me a text! That is why I do not take D to the library.., we just never get around to taking them back!

also need to take D to the shop so she can get her father a Christmas present. I so very hate doing this. But she is at the age where she can pick it all by herself.
