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

It's not being a bad mum @Bow It's looking after yourself. We have all gone to bed before our kids before hon. You are not alone. I know it's hard but sometimes putting ourselves first is really needed.

Hopefully this SW coming tomorrow gives you just a little more support especially if you are going to be alone.

No plans for the weekend. Will probably go see mum tomorrow morning.

Re: My Mosaic

I been tired today, with lotsa nausea. But got up early, stupid body clock, gosh it’s annoying when you wake up early for no reason and can’t get back to sleep. I put washing on. Folded last weeks washing. Fed the kittens and cleaned their enclosure out. They didn’t eat much of their dinner last night and I’ve noticed they haven’t eaten much of their breakfast this morning. Not sure why. Dropped D at her fathers, I went to the shops, did what I needed to do and got out of there. I was gonna get on the treadmill but wasn’t feeling well. So I’ve managed to get some market stock done.
now I’m waiting for the casual SW to arrive. I’m anxious. Feeling really vulnerable and I don’t really know this lady

Well done for getting so much done today. You have accomplished a lot.

I hope it goes ok with the SW.

Hi @Snowie

SW came, eventually… she went to my old address! I have no idea how she managed to do that? She was an older lady, she just stood at the door, I like opened the door and walked towards the couches, short of asking if she wanted to come in and sit, I think I invited her in? Oh well. She just asked me a heap of questions, said she was mainly told to check if I’d eaten. She didn’t understand why I don’t eat much, which makes it awkward. But she only stayed a few minutes.

How are you doing today?

Re: My Mosaic

This is what I’ve done today.


 

 

I write the quotes on the cardstock and I’ve got a big pile to work through now. It should last a few months at the market. I like to add a few new quotes each time too but there are some that sell quickly. Now I just have to unwrap each individual frame, remove the glass (I always have a huge pile and they just go in the recycling bin cause what else do I do with them?) and then I have my logo sticker and then a small bits warning sticker for the back.

oh and the table they are all on. Is our coffee table that I have been stripping back! I’ve just about finished it. Need to now see if the electric tool we have down stairs is a wood planer… cause I need one of them!

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow

Well I guess at least she came but I'm sure it felt a bit odd.

How did you go with answering her questions?


I so wish I could buy some of your work hon. You create amazing pieces of art.

I'm sure they sell well at the markets.

Thats cool that you have your own logo that you can add to them.

You'll have to show us a pic of the table once you finish it.

Today's been hard. Took H and the kids to see mum so at least I'm in the good books for that.

Things just piling up.

Re: My Mosaic

Was hard to answer her questions @Snowie hard to be honest with some of them. Sigh won’t say anything else.

im sorry things have been hard today
