Photo an hour - 20th February

This Saturday was #photoanhour and got off to a very good start when I woke up, as I found Ben had been shopping whilst I slept and so my breakfast was going to be more exciting than cereal.

8am: maple pecan bun thing.  Yummy.

9am: For Christmas, Mum bought me the two Edward's Menagerie crochet books - they are superb.  This is my first finished animal, Sophia the Flamingo for Vikki.  Look at how she slouches on the heater!

10am: I've had a bit of a cold recently, so 10 o'clock was time for more tea to wash down the paracetamol.

11am: judging by the blanket over my legs in the 10am and 11am photos I don't think I moved very far!  I started my second animal, Blake the Orangutan, again for Vikki. I am not a fan of fur stitch, although it is very clever.

12pm: I got up, and had a shower, and got dressed! I like my bee socks, continuing with the animal theme so far!

2pm: back from errands in town, lunch of roasted butternut squash, spinach, gnocchi and goat's cheese.

3pm: on Sunday my Guiding district held an event to celebrate World Thinking Day - I was organising it (different people organise it every year - I wrote about the 2014 event here) and so I had a few last minute bits to do on Saturday afternoon.  Like make a trefoil out of a pipe cleaner.  

4pm:  more Thinking Day stuff.  The girls would be doing four different activities and collecting a bit of circle (below) they could connect at the end.

6pm: Wrapping presents for Mum's birthday which need posting this week.

7pm: Ben and I were off to the theatre.  We needed to leave at 7.15.  At 7.10 I was ready to go, and sat on the sofa to do some reading as Ben still needed to have a shower and get dressed.

An early 8pm: we made it to Chichester Festival Theatre in time.

9pm: A spot of reading in the interval.  

I was feeling pretty rotten by the end of the show and so we came straight home afterwards - I was in bed and asleep within minutes!

Thanks, as always, to Jane and Louisa for organising.
