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

Sorry to hear the dread is sitting heavy tonight @Bow - I think the physical feelings can definitely influence our mental state (and vice versa). Is there anything that might help you feel a little more soothed? Spiky mat, cup of hot tea, shower, stuff like that?

Re: My Mosaic

not feeling like anything is doable at the moment. Body feeling too overwhelmed and blocked

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow no disturbance ;)

Perhaps some focused/gentle breathing could help you to re-centre yourself a bit hun.

Hope you're able to get a bit of rest tonight <3

@Snowie

Hope all goes well for you with the dentist and it’s just the one filling. Is this the same dentist you were talking about that you found who is kind and gentle? I should probably get my teeth checked at some point too. I don’t remember when I last went.

@Bow

I agree with Jynx that you’re right and everything hits harder when we’re feeling physically unwell too. I’m so impressed that you were able to go to D’s school given everything you’re dealing with at the moment. That deserves real recognition.

I’m glad you were able to be honest with your SW about the trajectory you feel like you’re on at the moment. Hopefully that will help her better support you. I’m sorry it’s so painful at the moment.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Bow

I hope you made it to the supermarket today hon and it's gone well for you.

@Wintersweet

Just the one filling. Didn't take long but cost a fortune, even with private health cover.

Yes I only ever go to the one dentist.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Snowie @Wintersweet

yep made it to the shops to get groceries done and get my meds. I really struggle with getting groceries, more so at the moment when I’m on this projectory. I just don’t know what I need to get. Trolley ends up just being full with stuff for D. Dinner time is super stressful too, with an added layer of stress and frustration because of D’s fussiness.

My SW is down south today, so got a text from her asking how I was. I tried to explain to her what was going on but sometimes it’s hard to put it into words. She asked if I’d tried to have some toast. No. It’s so hard. She offered to call. I sat and stared at my phone for 1/2hr couldn’t decide if that would be helpful or not. Decided to just do some craft.

just curled up on the couch to watch a movie.

how are you both? How’s your day been?

Re: My Mosaic

Well done for getting those things done @Bow

I'm very much a list person. If it's not on the shopping list, I rarely get it.

Sometimes it is hard to put things into words. So much easier just saying it.

Could you write down what is in your head? Then take a picture of it and send it to her. Might make it bit easier.

Hoping the couch is nice.

I'm ok. Went to the dentist this morning and got my tooth fixed. Gee it is expensive even with private health cover. Have to take mum up the street tomorrow morning. I'm really finding it hard to be around her lately but not much choice.
