rough time

@Snowie good to see you
ive not long come back from my gp and now going to put kungfu panda on and do abit of crochet. im just waiting on a hotel to ge back to me about booking fees hopefully there is none but i think ive finally found a hotel!

hotels booked @Snowie
geez the diference between holiday periods and other times can be abit much cant it!
its one less stress though as that was the thing bothering me the most.
gp was fairly average just spoke about how id been since i started back on my meds again and if i dont notice a change- that was the reason i stopped taking them- that and the price as they are quite expensive. she would like a second opinion from a psychiatrist.
other than that it wa a quick session.

im not crocheting anything in particular atm as ive lost abit of my crojo. @CheerBear suggested i try a different pattern as all ive been doing is sqaures the last few months o make the blankets so ive just had a look on youtube and picked 2 different patterns to make into sample swatches. my pop would like me to make him a blanket but not quite in the right space to make a queen size blanket so will practice some patterns and maybe he can pick which one he likes.
i need abit of an easy day today after yesterday and pops gp appt as well (which im glad i went to!) turns out he doesnt have dementia as yet but more short term memory issues and i was given a list of things to do for him 😕 and to make sure he does etc, that also got rid of the plans to get him further support (which wouldve helped me greatly) and anything such as home care etc for a break ill need to pay for myself. i mustve been gritting my teeth alot last night as they are quite sore today

oh ive also got abit of studying to do but i might leave it till tonight or tomorrow after ive had abit more sleep as ive got an assessment on the 8th. im in the middle of writing notes for the second topic, ive got one more topic to go before i do the quiz.

hows your day going?what are you up to today?


@Sans911 what are you up to today? did you get much of your studies done?

im trying the chevron pattern atm. makes me think cause i have to count! @Snowie
the course is quite good actually, its abit hard but i dont mind.
a quiet day sounds good, hehe if i didnt have o tot eh drs this morning id stillbe in pjs too!

I heard chevron and had to come by and ask how it is going @outlander?! 😉🙂

Hiya also to you @Snowie

lol @CheerBear its going quite well. ive made a small piece and will share later once ive got my better camera charged abit. i quite like the stitch. its pretty easy once you get the hang of it
i tried C2C and just got confused!
i had a quick go at the ripple stitch too but getting a headache so will wait till later to finish that one off. took me a few goes to get the chain number right. i kept ending up with one or 2 or 3 extra.

Awesome @outlander! Sounds like you're finding that crojo maybe 😆

Chevron is fun! C2C is definitely tricky to start. It's takes a different kind of brain power I think. As with most things crochet, once you get the hang of it it flows though.

Good to hear you trying new things! Love that ❤🙂

haha perhaps my crojo is coming back! @CheerBear

i really like it, i might make pops blanket in that stitch, i think he would like it too. im hoping my sample piece looks ok, its my first one so im sure theres mistakes in there!

yes definently a different kind of brain power, i tried it but it wasnt registering properly so making mistakes to much with it. will give it another go though but another day.


are you still working on the umm babette? blanket- i think thats what its called...

It would make a lovely one for your pop @outlander 😊

Yep I'm still working on mine. It's coming along now. I'm piecing together all of the squares which is taking a bit of time but slowly I'm getting through them.

I'll show you what's sitting on my lap right now (once I push post on this one). I can pick it up and put it down pretty easily so it's a good one for when I have only a moment to sneak in.
