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

Thats a strange question @Bow I wonder if she meant you have contact with a SW all the time if needed.

Re: My Mosaic

I guess there are people that live in supported living? And I had my SW with me on Monday when I seen this person at the centre @Snowie

I don’t know. But is that what she thinks I need? She was very pushy about me going to hospital.

my SW came and did a quick home visit today. I think she understands how dark things are for me. How much I am struggling. She talked about how despite me feeling my lowest and darkest I still get up and get stuff done… cause I have to. Anyone else would probably be just in bed. I nodded. I agreed. It’s so exhausting. I really wish I could just be in bed all the time, sleep, hide. But I can’t. 1. Mum would worry so much. 2. I have people and things that rely on me.
Mum goes next week….. good that I will be able to do what I want, be in bed, sleep. But could also be bad that I’ll get stuck in that place and not be able to get out.
My SW said today that it’s ok to have a day like that, even she has a day like that every now and then, time to recharge and rest, but I can’t stay there. She knows that I’ve been there a week, nearly 2 and that’s not good.
I really hope things go ok with her daughter’s surgery on Monday and she back at work on Wednesday- the day mum leaves. She did say that if while she is away, I need a home visit to make sure I ask. I am allowed to ask for that.

sorry that was a lot.

how are you?

Re: My Mosaic

Never thought about that @Bow Something I guess she could have found out if she read your file though.

I can see where they are coming from, they just want you safe, but if only we could just think about ourselves. We have others that rely on us.

Glad your SW came today, especially if she is taking some time off next week.

She is right. You do need to give yourself credit hon. You are getting up, are functioning, are trying to be there for D. Alot of people would just give up.

I always find when H is around it's easier to function. Sometimes I think having that other person there does make it a bit easier.

Remember when your mum goes away you do have us here. You can reach out if you need. You are allowed to ask for others to help. I know it can be hard though.

I'm ok thanks. Been a busy day. Not much time to think so probably a good thing.
