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 🙂

Going to try and plan some things with my kids too @Bow, that is when D isn't working. She worked today and got paid double time because it was a public holiday. Will be borrowing money of her soon!!!

I hope you are able to do some things with your D hon. She will love spending time with you.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @NatureLover im doing as ok as I can be at the moment. things are a bit difficult at the moment, just trying to get through the day.

And yep, we got some hot days at the moment. Daughter and I are in my room with the AC on today.
my friend keeps inviting us over to their place to go for a swim- which is nice. But I am so uncomfortable in my own skin at the moment that I don’t wanna go.

how are you doing??

Sorry to hear your day deteriorated and it sounds like you had a tough evening /night, dear @Bow 😞

How are you doing this morning?

Thanks for asking how I was doing, I am OK although the state of the house is worse than it's ever been 😞

I really hope today is better for you 💜

Re: My Mosaic

I’m ok @NatureLover thank you. Started the day off watering my plants and now I’m on the treadmill.

im sorry your house is worse than it’s ever been. How can I support you? Is there something that I can say, encourage you with or check in with you about?

Re: My Mosaic

I'm glad you are OK, @Bow ...you seem to do better in the mornings?

I am touched, thank you ❤️ xx

It does help me to report back what I've done that day. So if I tell you that I want to do 1 hour per day specifically on the mess (on top of my regular morning tidying or daily laundry, etc) then that will help me, as I want to be able to tell you I've done that 1 hour per day extra.

1 hour seems huge to me at the moment...obviously I'll have to step that up at some point in January, as I have a rental inspection due at the end of January. But I want to get into the habit of doing 1 hour every day on the mess, to create a long-term habit. Not on my 2 work days (Mondays and Thursdays) though, as I'm too exhausted those days. So just 5 days a week.

Thank you ❤️

Re: My Mosaic

Yes I seem to do better of a morning…. Most days @NatureLover i get up and start the day off with good intentions… trying to have a better day than the day before, but something usually happens, whether that be flashbacks, bad body day or something else.

I’d be glad to hear you report back daily that you have done your one hour of cleaning, even what you cleaned and managed to do.
We have been fortunate that our real estate hasn’t ever done a house inspection with us, we have been here over 2 yrs and have never had one, I think it’s cause the office is over an hour away. But I know that feeling though, use to hate them!
