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

Good morning @Bow I hope that D is feeling better hon. Did she end up going to school?

I read how many Alice books you have now. That is a lot!!

I hope you day is going well.

Morning too @Wintersweet I hope your day is going well.

I've never heard of that tv series before. Might have to look into it.

Re: My Mosaic

Good morning @Snowie

D is still unwell and stayed home from school.

I’ve been out to do the groceries this morning, picked up some photo frames from Kmart to get my Father’s Day frames done ready for market this week. Picked up meds. Forgot to take my vitamin D meds but did ask if they will put them in my Webster packs and they will so need to drop them down sometime this week.

SW team leader texted me this morning. SW apparently off today. I replied so will see what she says

how are you today?

Re: My Mosaic

Hi dear @Bow

Sounds like you have had a very busy morning.

I hope D feels better soon and that you don't catch what she has.

Hopefully the market goes well too. Do you normally sell much for fathers day?

I guess it is a wait and see with the SW...

I have my vitamins in my webster pack. So much easier and I can't forget to take them

I'm ok. Did groceries this morning too with mum. She was still in a sh*tty mood with me but heard how great my brother is numerous times. Got the slow cooker on for tea so my house is smelling nice!

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow

That’s a lot this morning! Well done! Would love to see what you do with the frames for Father’s Day.

Hope D feels better soon. 💛

@Snowie

I really feel for you with the unfairness of your mum praising your brother and criticising you when you’re the one who does all the stuff with her. Hope the rest of your day goes better. 💛 Sounds like dinner is going to be good!

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie im sorry your mum was in such a bad mood and took it out on you. Oh what did you cook for dinner? We had tacos. D was excited about that but didn’t end up eating much. She is feeling a bit better though.

hopefully having the vitamin d in my Webster pack it will bring my levels up quickly. Gp said it’s really really really low and when I told my dietitian she said wow that’s very low. Could help with a lot of my symptoms. Must remember to drop it off though.

@Wintersweet these are my Father’s Day frames.

I heard back from the SW team leader. I had asked if the SW that was maybe going to be my new SW but I never got to meet her cause she went on 2 weeks personal leave, whether she was back yet. And she was. First day back today. So I was in contact with her a little bit today via text. She sent a reassuring message saying she understood there have been lots of changes lately, but she can start from now and wants to take the time to get to know me, to understand me and whats important to me. So that sounds good I think. Not sure when she’s coming out though. She mentioned Thursday but I’m kinda hoping for sooner than that.

last day of winter today booooo 👎🏻

how was the rest of your days?

In response to: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Bow

Had chicken curry and rice for dinner. Everyone loves it and I chuck everything in the slow cooker in the morning and don't think about it until tea time!

That sounds promising for the SW hon. I really hope that it works out for you. You deserve the support hon.

Rest of my day was quiet, which was nice.

Have to take mum to kmart tomorrow.

Re: My Mosaic

Had me a shower and washed my hair. I find planning and working up to getting myself in the shower doesn’t work for me. It just needs to be a spare of the moment thing and I just do it.

In response to: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow

Hope you’re able to enjoy how it feels having had the shower. Totally makes sense about having to do it in the moment. I can really relate to the experience of “if I just do it on a whim it’s fine but if I stop and think about it I get overwhelmed and can’t”. Which is I think at least similar to what you’re describing?

The frames look great! I love how you have the comic design in the background of the second one. It creates a really cool “second frame”.

It’s really good that this SW is at least tuned-in enough to recognise the impact the changes would have had on you and that they want to put in the effort to actually get to know you. Thursday would feel far away though. Hope they can come to see you sooner.

@Snowie

Sorry that you have to take your mum to Kmart tomorrow. Hope it goes smoothly and is over as quickly as possible for you. Also, I meant to say, I really like Shetland but there’s at least one possibly triggering scene in the first two-episode story, another potentially very triggering storyline through the second half of season 3 into season 4, and likely also more that I’m forgetting. From memory those storylines aren’t part of the books and I really enjoyed the audiobooks, so I’d possibly recommend those more than the show. Do you have any books you’d recommend?

I’m glad the rest of your day was quiet and that dinner was nice. Hoping there’s nice quiet time in your day tomorrow too.

Re: My Mosaic

Morning @Bow

Well done on the shower hon. I know how hard that can be.

I hope D is feeling a little better today.

BTW I loved those fathers day piece of work. So creative.

Hoping today is going ok for you

Morning too @Wintersweet

Thanks for the info about Shetland. Will have a look into books.

I mostly read autobiographies or books about history. Have a kobo ereader (much like a kindle) that I use to read from.

Wishing you a good rest of the day
