Day 29 - Hopes, Dreams And Plans For The Next 365 Days

Oooo, I'm not sure! I suppose mainly I'd like all my family to be well. I hope my brother doesn't get picked on this year and that my Mum learns to put her feet up every now and again.

I hope to lose at least 2 stone by Christmas, when I'm gonna go to Camden and buy loads of new, smaller, clothes! I've lost 10 pounds so far. I also hope to eat healthier and do more exercise.

I plan to write more amigurumi patterns, and may ever write a pattern for my own hat and gloves for Christmas time. I'll be spending most of my time crocheting for the stall in December - I hope that goes well and that I have a great time like last year.

I'd like to start doing volunteer work at a local charity shop. I desperately need something to fill my time and I don't think there's much chance of me getting a job.

And in general I'd like to have a bit more fun! Going to gigs with my brother, enjoying my crochet work, look into going to Japan next year and to continue talking to the friends I've made. I'd also like to do more cooking, I like cooking. Cakes...

Chilly, Chilly, Chilly!

Hiya, hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Well, I finished Chilly! There he is on the right! Out of everything, the hat took the longest to crochet! I had to keep un-doing it as I kept going wrong!

Also the weather's chilly here to at the mo. It snowed bigtime yesterday, which is rare in this part of Essex! I sometimes think we live under some sort of dome - it snows everywhere around us but not here! But the dome was lifted yesterday and we now have several cm's worth of snow. I ain't been out in it yet - but my Mum and Dad have. My Dad loves the stuff, he's like a big kid! He's 50-something lol!

Plans for this week - I want to get one of my crochet patterns up on here one day. It will either be a crochet flower brooch I made up a pattern for or an arm cuff I wrote last night whilst watching a Russell Brand DVD. I've never written patterns for others to follow before, so I hope they'll be understandable! Probably won't be...
