Re: My Mosaic

Ah that’s heaps awesome @Jynx  feel nice having a fresh clean space? 

I have a list of things I wanna clean and tidy over the coming 2 weeks while mum is away. 

feeling fairly crummy this evening. Fragile and emotional. Been curled up in bed for a while. It’s been a big day.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow yeah it's already done wonders for my creativity!! I found some bits and bobs that should work for making myself this like... cottage-core x magic forest vibe style lampshade by tying some branches and fake plants around a frame so that it kinda makes branch-patterns on the wall. I will show you if I can get it to work!! 

 

I hope you get bit by the same cleaning bug that got me then, haha it took me the better part of three days 😅

 

Aww hun, I know the feeling. I call it being 'emotionally brittle' because the smallest thing could tip me into overwhelm/meltdown/spiral territory! I once had a break down after my headphones got caught on a door handle, got wrenched outta my ears, and interrupted the sad song I was listening to just before it got to the part that hurt the most. I shamed myself a lot over that one, despite the fact that I had been dealing with a LOT. You're dealing with a lot too hun! Too much. So it's always okay to take a day to hide under the covers 😉

 

In any case, I do find the creature comforts to be especially important when I'm feeling that way - time for some nostalgic disney movies maybe?

Re: My Mosaic

Finding things you forgot about or couldn’t find is the best @Jynx  your lampshade sounds very cool! I hope it works out how you have envisioned and you can share a pic. 

im hoping to declutter a lot. Do a couple of vinnie drop offs. Sort through all my clothes. 

emotionally brittle- that’s how it feels. I was on the couch earlier tonight and started crying over nothing really…. well no, the dog wouldn’t shut up. She always barks but tonight it was too much. That’s when I went and crawled into bed. 

just went and took my meds, should of done it ages ago with how I’m feeling, but didn’t wanna move from under the blankets, got a drink, went to the loo and said goodnight. Really wanting sleep to hit me but my head is really loud. Going on repeat from what happened today.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow yeah I still have to clean out/sort through my drawers too, so I imagine there'll be even more long lost trinkets popping up 😅

 

Oh hun, yeah that would've pushed me over the edge too! The sensory overwhelm alone of a dog endlessly barking sets my teeth on edge. I hope you can get some reprieve and some solid rest tonight hun! Hopefully I'll catch ya tomorrow 💜 Sleep tight!

Re: My Mosaic

Well done @Jynx on getting your room done!

Aww thanks @Snowie!! Feels like a weight off me for sure!! How you doing today hun? You got any spring cleaning on the agenda any time soon? 

 

Hope you're doing okay today @Bow 😊💜

Re: My Mosaic

Dissociated down the street this morning @Jynx Wasn't fun. 

Need to clean out my linen closet. Just throw it in and close the door. I compromised and washed all the sheets!

 

How has your day been?

Re: My Mosaic

Oof yeah I bet @Snowie that sounds very unfun indeed. How does it tend to impact the rest of your day, like are you a bit frazzled or have all the funky brain chemicals made their way outta your system? 

 

Hahaha that's a mood!! I have done the same with my 'floordrobe' on many an occasion 😅 But yay for fresh sheets!! I finally hauled myself to the laundromat last night and got a load done! One more to go... boy I do miss having a washing machine 😵

 

Day has been alright! Managed to get to Kmart before work and grabbed some hooks - I framed this collage I made after a holotropic breathwork session and wanna hang it above my bed! Ooh I'll take a pic and show you!

 

How about you, just errands today?
