Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Snowie @Jynx @Eve7 

 

hope y’all are traveling along ok?

 

our day has been good so far. And yep you’re right, no sleep in for us today! D up early for her birthday. She was very spoilt. And did love and appreciate all her gifts. Lots of dragon stuff and arts and craft supplies that she keeps stealing off me! She now has her stuff… including 3 big rolls of masking tape! 😂 

 

we ordered McDonald’s for breakfast and was so disappointed! Took an hr and arrived cold. I got a refund. 

she spent a few hours at her dads. 

I stopped off at my favorite op shop. Went to get a few more towels for the kittens. I came home with 4 blankets, 2 cat beds, a pet carrier and a big bag of craft supplies! And all for $20!! I first just had a small pile if craft stuff and went to pay and she asked if I wanted some more craft stuff… say yes please… please say yes. I caved and said sure, I’ll have a look. She lead me upstairs to a room that had 5 big boxes of arts and craft stuff. Spend 1/2hr picking out some stuff and then wandered back down stairs to pay. I told her you shouldn’t have send me up there! She laughed. I would have happily paid more. But that’s how this lady does it. Everything is so cheap. She is there to help the community. When I told her I only came for towels for my foster kittens she gave me the extra cat beds and a pack of pet bowels too. 

I came home and cleaned my room a bit and then D came home. We sat down and did some Lego together. She doing her big Ninjago dragon she got for her birthday and I started on my hibiscus set. 

this is what I ended up setting up last night for  my D’s birthday. The green is her bedroom and then down to the living area. But apparently she spent most of the night on the couch cause there was a moth in her room!

Aww @Bow I love it, what a special day for her!! The deco is choice too hehe. I also love op shops like that hey, where they just seem to actually want to give back, not just make a buck! 

 

Lego buds is also adorable. Kittens still coming today?

Re: My Mosaic

So exciting @Bow! EEEEE OMG KITTIES!

Bit on the sleepy side, didn't get a lot. So much relaxing in the small patches of sun earlier, probably go to bed very early! 😅

Re: My Mosaic

Oh feeling ya on the sleepy side @Jynx  i have not been sleeping well the last few nights. Own fault totally. Complicated. And probably never be able to tell anyone about it. 

sigh. It’s depressing

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow that is very hard hun, and when it affects our sleep it makes everything else harder, hey. Still no word on a replacement psych I'm guessing? I can imagine it's pretty destabilising to not have that in the back of your mind as a space to delve into these things.

Re: My Mosaic

Nothing @Jynx  i dont even think I am on the wait list to receive a new one.  I need to work up the courage to have a conversation with my CM about it. Was wanting to do it last week but I had no words. 
I’m so stupid. Can’t even talk when I need to

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow that's not stupidity that's unconscious survival reflexes doing what they think is best to protect you in that situation. Not stupid, that's instinct, and not something easy to deny. 

Is this the CM who won't let you write stuff down?

Re: My Mosaic

Yep that’s her @Jynx 

 

im seeing my SW beforehand. I have arts and craft group and then see my CM straight after. I asked if my SW had time to sit with me and write some stuff down during group, that I can possible read to my CM. But I don’t even know if I’ll be able to do that. 

I just don’t understand why my CM is so against it? Like why won’t she read stuff? I’m really baffled by it 🤷🏼‍♀️
