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

That sounds refreshing @Bow .

I've got lots of double booked events this weekend, so I'm sifting through and prioritising LOL.

I've been invited to a house warming, invited for a late Greek Easter lunch celebration, I'm working in the evenings....I also hope to catch up with family.

So yeah....busy, but I like it that way.

I'm not good at sitting idle - too much thinking time!

Your daughter returned to school this week? How'd she go?

Re: My Mosaic

Oh dear, that does sound a bit overwhelming! Good luck with prioritising it all!

I love Greek food… we had ‘my big fat Greek’ for dinner. We have been cake decorating and cookie decorating this afternoon… and mums been doing it all day, so got take away. We are both tired.

I’ve just crawled into bed and watching a movie.

yea daughter went back to school Wednesday. All good. She loves school, which makes it easy.

Re: My Mosaic

I’m very peopled out. Attended my sister in laws baby shower today, we were out most of the day and I am ready to collapse in a heap. I’ve just taken the dog for a walk…. Some exercise for me. And can’t keep fighting back the tears now. Nothing major. Just everything tipping me over the edge tonight.

i seen my gp this morning. I had to go back to her to renew my ED health care plan. She of course had to weigh me and I am disgusted. I’ve been eating better and I’ve staked on heap of weight very quickly. I know it just shows how much I have been restricting and it’s my body just going back to it’s normal weight. But my ED is very loud and angry and wanting to restrict. I will start afresh on Monday.
I came home from my appointment and got ready to go out to the baby shower and I made a comment about my weight gain to my mum and that I need to lose weight. She said we can do it together. Healthy self though that’s not what I need. But ED is cheering. Someone to help encourage my weight lose and I’ll probably be able to get away with so much if mum Is joining me.
i feel flat and really depressed tonight. I just wanna take my meds super early and go to bed. I truely hate myself and my life. I want it to be over. I remember sitting in my room yesterday with my case manager, she again reminded me how very close I came recently….. and asked me whether I fully grasped how close it was. Sometimes I think about it. It’s scary. Other times I want to see how far I can push my body.
it’s a sad miserable life. One that I don’t want anymore.
