Busy day today mostly spent running around -
* I went food shopping today instead of tomorrow
* annual visit to the opticians (no change, everything fine, go back in 12 months, hurray!) Have to say I love my optician, been seeing him since I was a child and wouldn't trust anyone else with my eyes or my kids eyes.
* kids swimming lessons.
Anais has expressed an interest in getting a lifeguard badge now she is in the supreme swimming class (getting lifeguard skilled) so we asked about it today. Unfortunately it is only held on Friday nights over a period of 12 weeks, so x12 weeks for bronze badge, x12 weeks for silver badge and x12 weeks for gold badge. It is fully booked at the moment so she is unable to get a place at the moment anyway, but I said we would think about it for the winter months when we are not so busy and places become available.
So not a lot of time for much else today. I did have a go at crocheting this pattern out of the book Nicolette brought me for Christmas. Isn't it pretty!

In the summer I want to make a crochet blanket and this pattern is very pretty so thought I'd start to practise now.
Here is attempt 1, I missed out a row of "petals" though, there should be three rounds of "petals" but I only did two...
