I've Made Friday Week 11

Wow another week has passed already.

I am so looking forward to this weekend.

As it's the Queens Jubilee Hubby is off on Monday & Tuesday.

Little Red is also off this next week.

I made the biggest mistake ever yesterday!

My son really wanted to go and see the olympic flame.

I eventually gave in and said we would go.

This meant walking up to where the flame was going past and waiting for over an hour for it to arrive.

Hubby carried a pack lunch and ran round after Little Red

but the walk etc has had really bad effects on me.

By the time we got back I was in that much pain that my body went into shock.

Little red thought I was just cold as I was shivering and my teeth were chattering.

I went to bed taking some medication first.

Within an hour I was awake again with a really bad asthma attack.

I was then sick and things didn't get any better.

About 2am this morning I finally got some sleep.

Today I am in so much pain and finding it difficult to eat.

Although I am going through all of this

I'm glad we went for little Red.

He enjoyed himself so much!

 

 

Little Red really enjoyed it and for him to be able to see the flame being lit was fantastic.

Now onto what I've been making this week.

A knight from Creepy, Cute Crochet book

A cardigan for a preemie baby

using the pattern:

fantastic pattern to follow!

Really enjoyed making this one

roll top booties.

I used a smaller hook to make these smaller

as the baby is only 4 1/2 lbs

using the pattern:

A hat using the pattern:

I made another hat using the same pattern

but used a smaller hook

I then added some spikes to the larger hat.

I've read a couple of books this week

I decided to finish off

the Vampire Acedemy Series.

First I read book 5 Spirit Bound

Kindle:

 

Book:

   

I got a bit frustrated by this book.

I felt that some of the lessons that had been learnt in the previous books were repeated.

I know we don't always make right decisions but

I got a bit frustrated with them being used again.

It did have a lot of twists and turns

and it was needed for the next book in the series.
Kindle:

      

Book:

   

I am really going to miss this series of books.
I loved the ups and downs, the love and friendship
that runs through it all
This was a beautiful ending to a fantastic series.
Lots of exciting things happened
to get to the ending.
All the characters pulled together to make a fantastic ending.
This is well worth reading!

 I'm hoping to have a lovely relaxing weekend.

I hope you have a fantastic weekend.

If you are celebrating the jubilee

I hope you have a fantastic time!
