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

how are you today? Up to much?

I had a really bad night. Didn’t sleep well at all and even dreamt about not sleeping well! Slow moving today. I did clean/tidy up the pantry cupboard- mum wanted it down and felt it was something I could manage. On the couch now. Gotta go and run my friends down to the train in an hour- they are off to the states for a month. I want to be asleep though.

D went to school today, she dragged her feet a bit, but got there.

Hi @Bow

Had psych this morning so nothing really this afternoon.

Sorry you had a bad night hon. However well done on the pantry. Accomplishing anything when tired is so hard to do. Maybe a nap after you've taken your friends.

I'm sure once D saw her friends she was fine and happy to be back.

Hey ya @Bow @Wintersweet @Snowie catching up here sorry for the delay.

How are you all going? Sorry you didn’t sleep well bow. That’s nice you are giving your friends a lift to the train. Hope you have a bit of time to squeeze in a nap when you get home 🙏🌻

@Snowie

I’m glad Dementia Australia have been helpful. It’s a really hard situation that warrants a lot of support. 💛

@Bow

I’m sorry you didn’t sleep well, dreaming about not sleeping well sucks. I’ve been there myself. I’m super impressed that you still managed to clean/tidy up the pantry! Hope the drive to the train station goes/went well and that you’re able to rest after. Any craft today?

@Chasingsunsets

I’m going ok, less intense anxiety when I woke up today and was able to get out of bed with less of a struggle. How are you?

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie hope your psych session went ok this morning. D had a good day at school but is worried that they did the camp cabin allocation while she was away, so have told her to talk to her teacher tomorrow.

Hey @Chasingsunsets nice you hear from you. Same stuff different day here. How are you doing?

@Wintersweet glad you woke up with less anxiety today- a better start to the day. I’m just on the couch watching Netflix. I’m slowly doing some art journaling. But I’m tired.

@Bow

Definitely a better start to the day! Slowly art journaling sounds like a good way to spend time. 💛

Re: My Mosaic

Hey there everyone @Bow @Snowie @Wintersweet, I can find it a bit hard to follow threads hehe so if I miss anything definitely not intentional 🤪.

Going through the motions @Bow, how’s the cabinet you got?

happy for you @Wintersweet, nice to wake up feeling better and less anxiety.

Im going okay, still trying to decide what exactly is happening and what the cause it but all ok here. Was nice to go for a walk tonight 😊

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow hope you got some sleep last night. If I'm right then your SW should be doing a home visit today. If so I hope it goes well

Morning @Wintersweet

Wishing you a good day today

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie

i had a bad night as usual. But added interruption of a house fire a couple of houses up the road at 2am. I woke to the first fire truck arriving. Fire truck 2 and 3 came and then #4 parked right outside my bedroom. Of course I had to get up and have a sticky beak but couldn’t really see anything and could smell smoke. Took me a while to get back to sleep. Drove past on my way to my psychologist appointment and it was pretty bad. Car in garage was destroyed.

psychologist went through the 7 different rests. Found that interesting. Sleep isn’t the only form of rest.

and yes my SW came to visit too. It went ok.

how are you today?

@Chasingsunsets things still feeling a bit off and out of sorts for you? My cabinet up cycle is on hold cause we have a house inspection next week.

hello @Wintersweet hope your day is going ok

Re: My Mosaic

That doesn't sound like a good night then @Bow I would of had a sticky beak too!

Never knew there were that many rests. Perhaps if you cannot sleep then you can use another form.

Have you got much planned for the rest of the day?

I'm ok. Didn't really sleep much either. Spent some time this morning cleaning out my wardrobe. Lots that I just don't wear anymore. Not even half way through but at least it's a start. Will have quite of number of garbage bags to donate when finished.
