| 1. You know more about the products and tools in Home Depot and where they are located than your husband. 2. 99% of your shopping trips involve things having to do with mosaics and the other 1% is food. 3. You have a bandaid on more than one finger |

| When you're eat in a nice restuarant and your Hubby tells you, "No you can't take the dishes home!" This actually happened to me yesterday when my Hubby took me to Red Lobster for our belated Valentines dinner. They were using Beautiful bright multi-colored crockery!! Kathy |

| When most of your furniture and clothing has silicone on it and it doesn't bother you. |
|
| Tasy- I LOVE those Red Lobster plates Lets see, when when every surface in you house looks like it needs when I hate to drive 10 min to the grocery store but think nothing of planning on a 1 hr drive to the glass store Maria |

| I can't think of anything - I'm laughing too hard, sitting here in my silicone covered clothing. That stuff has fumes? funny I've never noticed. |

| OMG -- Too funny !!! Keep 'em coming ! |
|
| 1- when you have mosaic WIP projects throughout the house. (I have one on my coffe table in the living room, a birdbath in the family room and finished projects on a table in the family room - besides I have a glass shop in the shed.) 2- You'd rather shop for glass and dishes than food, clothes, and basic needs. 3 - When you can't sleep because all you can think of is your next project. Let's make a book! This is good. |
|
| Well, those fumes do explain a lot around here......... Maria |

| "AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU REALIZE YOU NEVER HAD A SHOWER OR COMBED YOUR HAIR!" "when you tell your DH==it's leftovers again" "when you go shopping and realize you have your work pants on." Love all of these! |
|
| I accidently broke a Fiesta coffee mug last night. My daughter (13) was at my mothers, I was telling her on the phone and replied "Dont make anthing with it, until I see it." She loves our Fiesta, so much she buys it herself. I think she did not quite belive that i did not do it on purpose! |
|
| When you stay up all night because YOU JUST HAD TO SEE IT GROUTED! When you look at every item at the thrift/auction/yard sale deciding whether an item can be mosaiked or broken. When you stop lusting after jewelry to wear and only dream of glueing it to something. When you order a mannequin. when you have your Dh calling from Lowes to verify, if you wanted sanded or unsanded. when caring for your family's needs is just something to get over with so you can go back to glueing. when everytime your friend calls and asks what you're doing, you keep giving her the same answer, she even answers for you now... I'm glueing... you say in unison! |

| your hairdresser has to cut glass and glue out of your hair....your friends think you had to much to drink at the last party when you started covering someones bald head with broken china...little did they know! |
|
| when the only breaks you take are to snap a pic and upload it, to post a WIP at GW! and you can type, "what color grout?" with your eyes closed. |
|
| all of the above----cant wait for my day off so i can cut up glass..barb |

| If the only thing you break is a plate when your best friend says 'You're an uncontrollable crack addict, sniffing too much glue and buying too much alcohol.' You have irresistible urges to leave or lurk by back doors of restaurants using expensive dinnerware. The temptation of 'nudging' a table heavily laden with Bridal gifts has you climbing walls muttering something about mosaics-in-law. When your surfing son suddenly figures why mom was so excited about 'those really great breakers'. When the sales clerk at the local china store is always out on the side walk with Windex at the ready when she wasn't there a few minutes before when you drove into town. |

| When it's 10:30 at night and you've been uncapping the silicone for the last 1/2hr saying "This is the last piece!!!" |
|
| You walk into the spendy houseware's department.......and wonder what the discount would be if you dropped it! Hazie |
|
| When the silicone fumes from one project cause your nose to run, you use your black grout-covered fingers from another project to wipe it.... then walk outside and have a nice long convo with the neighbor who is giving you weird side-glances all the while. When you've finished cooking your hurridly-made grilled cheese sandwich, you reach for a plate, but discover you have no more clean plates... so you grab one off of the stack of smasher plates. And you don't care that it's not washed until well after the fact. |
|
| Your nose thing MAD is too funny!!! Hubby and I were sanding our walls........new drywall...and the new neighbor came over......Hubby chatted with him for a while...and when he came back in I noticed his nostrils were full of white dust! the new neighbor told the other neighbors, we may have a COKE problem!!! it infuriated me! so they are not our friends...and we feel we have to prove to the old neighbors we are not drug addicts!.....doesn't help that I'm up late working in my studio at all hours!!hahah Just one of those things!! Hazie |
|
| Coke problem? LOL... oh man, that's not good. Well, at least the old neighbors were friends enough to tell you what they said, but still. |

| Oh, I forgot one - along w/the "can't sleep for thinking up next project". When you're sitting in church disecting people's faces thinking "that would be an easy shape to cut". And talk about the dirty, grout/adhesive covered work clothes, AND BLACK UNDER THE NAILS. Oh, man - not a pretty sight. |

| Oh Hazie that happened to my hub and I also, We were building our house and were sanding and took a break some one brought powder donuts from Dunkins and here were are with dust in our hair, it was up hubs nose, everywhere and I had chunks of Powder down my shirt from the donut yeah we have a "crack" problem, some one finally pointed out what we looked like Laughingly!! W Went to the grange hall in town yesterday and they have Vintage plates , alot of pinks with little flowers and I so wanted to "drop" a few!! |

| ...when your loved ones plan a "mosaic intervention" ....when the best way to make you lose it is to hide your tools... ....being told by your DH..ya know were gonna have to put you on "MOSAIC" restriction... ...trying to pay your boss to lay you off so you have "more time" to mosaic!! ...when you hear of someone breaking an entering on the news you wonder if they put good alarms at the glass store/2nd hand store! ...you start calling neighbors looking for "usable" household items and dishes to donate to your "cause" ...you wonder how long your family would stop talking to you if you broke ALL the family china that was handed down for generations!! |
|
| ......When you 'accidently' break a family heirloom on purpose (it was just a coffee cup and I have another like it, Im only waiting for that one to break) ......when your DH has to bribe you w/a trip to the glass store just to get you to stop gluing and take a shower. ......when you get excited at the sound of crashing glass at the resteraunt. ......when your six year old finds a broken beer bottle in the park and begs DH to take it home to mom. .......when your b/f skips calling you for coffee cause she knows what your up to. |
|
| LOL! I have red glassware handed down, I'm gonna have to wait for my mom to pass away before I can use it! my 5 year old brings me pieces of glass from the playground too! |

| 1. When your husband goes out and buys a set of glasses and tells you they are NOT to be used by you because of all the adhesive stuck on the old ones. 2. Assuring even strangers that the black under your nails isn't dirt, but grout....somehow that seems like it would be more socially acceptable in your own mind. 3. You come home from work and your drive way is lined with bowling balls from complete strangers...by your door is boxes of broken dishes, junk jewelry, etc. left by friends. 4. You walk everywhere with your head down thinking you might find a "treasure" to pick up to use for mosaicing...parking lots especially! 5. Buying grout and junk is more important than perfume and lipstick! (and that's a biggie for me) |
|
- Posted by diamondjennie (My Page) on Mon, Feb 19, 07 at 20:49
| When you nearly hyperventilate when you find a great sale on your favorite grout. (Or any grout!);.) When your DD just says "Mom, I really love you...but you are very strange." when you share your excitement over your latest "find"! When the people at the local Thrift Shops are starting to know you by name, and wonder just what you DO with all those dishes??? |
|
| You ask the clerk "how much for a broken plate" and she says "Now, you don't REALLY want that do you?" (this really happened to me) |
|
- Posted by morninglori (My Page) on Mon, Feb 19, 07 at 21:10
| I love this...I can relate to everyone!! ...when you warn your husband if he goes barefoot around the mosaic area, its at his own risk! ...when your piles of plates get so high that you have to periodically go thru them to remember what you have and find the perfect plate to finish a project on the bottom! ...when you realize everything in your house and garden would look better mosaicked and start doing it! ...when you can always find another time to do housework but theres never enough time to mosaic!! |
|
| this is so scary, because every dang one of these is SO TRUE! LOL |
|
| Great thread, and you guys are all so funny. Must be all the glue fumes. Maybe this is only funny to us, perhaps all the "regular" people wouldn't see the humor we do,lol. Cindy |

| when today, I was in a ts and found the most beautiful set of dishes..the saucers were completely covered with print..the dishes were around the edges but they didn't accept debit cards.. so, after I left..I called to have them hold them (instead of having them hold them before I left) they asked me to describe them...one of 3 sets there.. the really striking pretty ones..the blues, lavenders and the pale peachy color apples.... and she says they were being wrapped up as we were speaking..someone had just bought them!!!!! I think I was more sad than when a family pet died. |

| You're in Lowes and your husband asks what you're looking for and you say "That adhesive/grout stuff that Slow uses" and he says "who???" |
|
| When you have that gritty feeling between your teeth. When your hubby asks "what's for dinner?" You say, "nothing." When your hubby runs to Lowes to get your more grout. When asked why he is so nice about it, he replies, "I like watching you smile while you work." My rule #5432: Never work after dark. I know I am addicted to mosaics when I can't wait for, and anticipate what I will do when, it is morning. When my mosaic is equal to that which was magneted to the fridge, when I was 5. Jynja |

| *Most women's husbands dread them going to the mall, my husband dreads me going to Lowe's, thrift stores and the tile warehouse my friend has (he let's me sift through all the leftovers from jobs he does). *When you look forward to doing laundry cause it gives a legitimate reason for going into the basement, to work on mosaics in between loads. |

| You know you're a mosaicin' maniac when ...... Working on a project right up to the minute I had to leave, and then realizing OH NO I'm late, I grabbed my keys and dashed out the door to meet a best friend at Home Depot to help her pick out crown molding, not seeing her car (she's late also) I sit down on a bench outside the store to wait, and in passing, a little girl with her mommy hands me a dollar. I'm shocked and speechless...in a panic, I go back to my car, assess myself, and realize I too hadn't showered, brushed my hair (much less my teeth), was wearing my worst stained, siliconed, and ripped jeans and t-shirt, had BLACK stained HANDS and finger nails, AND to top it off, I had painted my laundry room that morning and some white paint must have dripped on the top of my head which, to a little girl, must have looked like bird doo doo...I’m sure the little girl thought I was HOMELESS! I was mortified, determined I wasn't getting out of my car again except to go in to my house...I called my friend and told her I couldn't make it..sorry, something had came up. It was several weeks before I could tell her what REALLY happened. We laughed so hard I almost wet my pants....but I wasn't laughing when it happened. Addiesue |
