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

Hey @Snowie my dear friend. How are you doing today? You were quiet yesterday, hopefully just busy- but was thinking of you 💗

im feeling much better today. I cleaned up downstairs from when my daughter had her friend over. They left a big mess and if I want it cleaned properly…. I must do it myself!

my SW came by for a visit. And I’ve not long got out of the shower. My SW asked how I’d been going with personal hygiene… maybe I stunk?!?! lol

I really need to make a phone call. To book in my next sleep study for narcolepsy… they have called a couple of times. Making calls is so hard at times.

Hi @Bow

I'm doing ok. Family issues last night. Sorted now.

So glad you are feeling better today and able to get out of bed.

Well done on the shower too hon, I know that can be so difficult at times.

Thats good that your SW came. Hopefully she didn't talk too much.

Perhaps that can be a goal for this afternoon, ringing them up!!

Got to go take mum to a hearing appt. this afternoon. She says her hearing aids aren't working properly but she's not charging them the right way. I've tried to tell her but she won't listen and gets pissed off at me. So have to take her so they can tell her that there is nothing wrong with them.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie sorry you had things to sort out with your family.

nah my SW didn’t talk too much. Going out with her tomorrow. Might take her to one of my fav op shops. She asked me where/what I wanted to do.

I still haven’t got to make that phone call 😩

Oh I hope they can sort the hearing aid issue out. Sometimes it’s easier to get someone to do the work/tell them/or blame them for! My older bro in tassie has hearing aids and is always complaining about them. My mum will need them eventually too.

you have ECT tomorrow? Did I remember that correctly?

Re: My Mosaic

Glad to hear about your SW @Bow! Thats good that you're able to go out with her tomorrow.

D and I often raid op shops

We never made it to the hearing appointment. Picked mum up and she was crying and angry.

Her mobile wasn't working so she couldn't call me today. Had something to do with telstra. Spent 30 mins on phone to them to finally work it out. Went on about her mobile not working and wants a new one. Mobile works fine, she's just forgotten how to use it.

Anger taken out on me. I never ask how she is doing, I don't call enough, never tell her anything, she waited all day for me to pick her up, the list goes on.

Sorry, sure you didn't want to hear all that.

Yes, ECT tomorrow morning.

Re: My Mosaic

That sounds like a frustrating day @Snowie im sorry

not feeling ok much tonight. Frustrated. Teary. Hopeless. I don’t know what else I can do

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Sorry to hear you are feeling that way @Bow

Will talking to your SW tomorrow help at all? I know she may not have any answers/suggestions for you.

It's hard when we feel this way. Feels like there is no way forward. That we just have to accept that life is like this.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie hope ect went ok this morning and you got the super kind and caring nurses. Also hope you’ve been able to chill on the couch this afternoon.

im okish today. I took my SW…. Well she picked me up, and went to my favourite op shop. She had another SW, a casual that has recently gone to permanent pt. She was doing a buddy shift. Neither had been to this op shop, so they were excited. Been on the couch the rest of the afternoon finishing off a book book.

Re: My Mosaic

Evening @Bow

Sounds like you SW enjoyed the op shop! I hope you were able to grab some good bargains.

Hoping too the rest of your day went ok hon.

ECT went ok. Had some nice nurses on. Met with the pdoc too (the one in ect is different to my normal pdoc). The plan is to continue with the monthly ect sessions for now.

Will be in bed soon, was a very early start to the morning.

Glad you had some nice nurses today @Snowie

i finally made that phone call. Booked in for my narcolepsy sleep study… she sent me an email with all the details… I really don’t think I have this.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie hope you got some good sleep last night.

I dropped D at her father’s this morning and I’ve just finished vacuuming my car. It was very well and truly overdue. Been putting it off for too long. I just have no energy now. So hopefully I will have some motivation to wash it tomorrow and D can help.

really want to tidy up a bit today, few piles of things that I need to put away. Then I can chill on the couch for the rest of the day.

do you have plans? What about sun and mon?
