Re: My Mosaic

Offered the house that we looked at last week and applied for. But we really want the house we applied for on Saturday. It’s literally around the corner and so close the school. Called the real estate and asked where our application is at, and she said they were still looking at it and could have an answer this afternoon or tomorrow.

You should totally write a book called ‘the little things- the little things that when done regularly and combined with all the other little things, aid in my recovery’. I’d read it. Or at least you could start a new thread @Jynx  maybe others have little things that help them too. 

Life is just so blinking busy and chaotic and I struggle to be able to think, focus and even remember what I should be doing to help myself. 

I went off to sleep before your last message came through. Was tired. And then up stupid early this morning to set up for our garage sale. I pulled a muscle in my chest putting the marquee up and I been in so much pain ever since. It’s been a slow day disappointingly, will hold it again next Saturday if we are still here or not moving house. 

hope you enjoy getting out in your green nature and that you found some frogs!


Hiya @Bow !

Aww yay you'd read my book? Not lying when I say I've thought about it (not that book specifically just the idea of writing a book hehe) 👀

 

Oh no ouch!! How is it today, still sore? Noooo 😭

 

No frogs for me... decided to try to clean my house, got a fairly decent chunk of dishes done then life decided NOPE time for a difficult emotional conversation w my partner instead lol. 

I will have to tell them that I was supposed to be finding frogs, and now they owe me a frog hunt I reckon! 

 

teehee

How's your Monday been hun?

Re: My Mosaic

Absolutely I’d read a book you write @Jynx  I reckon it would be pretty cool. You know I wrote a book yeah? I’d so love to write another. Maybe one day. 

Yeah it’s still sore, but not as bad as yesterday thankfully. 

oh… difficult emotional conversations. Yuck! But did it had a positive outcome? Maybe frog hunting next time yeah!?

 

my Monday? Was slow going. I was super sore everywhere and tired. But once I was up and moving for a while and some meds, that helped. Groceries done. 
call from real estate from the house we looked at last week and applied for. We got approved for it. We actually didn’t think we would after the phone call from them last week about affordability and cause they booked another open home over the weekend. 
thing is, we really want the house we looked at on Saturday and applied for. So I called them to see where our application was at. Explained we had been approved for another house but we would really like this one. She said she was still looking at app and would hopefully have an answer this arvo or tomorrow morning. 
meanwhile, other real estate want a response. We hold off for a bit. Wait. But then call them back and see what they want us to do next, saying we will take it. They emailed us with instructions for paying a holding fee and other things after that. Read email and it says we need to pay 2 weeks holding fee… but the T&C on the application said only 1 week. So we shall call them tomorrow to ask about it and gosh hopefully only real estate comes back to us. Urgh

 

it has been a very stressful day. I just wanted a day on the couch to recover from the weekend. I started watching more of the tv show I’ve been watching but I just couldn’t focus. So I got up and packed some more boxes. Whatever happens, we have a house and we are moving. 

my SW called this morning. I was really hoping that she’d say she had time for a home visit. But she didn’t 😞

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah. It’s not ‘published’ per se, I just wrote, edited it, and had it proper printed @Jynx had 100 printed and only got a couple left. Just sold it amongst family and friends. It was shipped all over the world though. It was a small snippet of my story and then a heap of small little devotionals/poems/ and other random things I’ve learnt. 

I’d like to do a proper autobiography. I’ve started. Just hard to know how to write it. 

oh, well hope it all goes well 

 

well we didn’t hear anything this arvo, so all fingers and toes crossed for early tomorrow morning! 


nope, no rest and no visit. So a bow full to the brim inside her head ready to explode and then pass out cause she is so exhausted and sore!
