Learning a new skill

Tuesday already, had a quiet weekend and stayed in because of the horrible snow! Didn't do much yesterday either but ventured out this morning to one of the local churches to meet some crafting ladies and have lunch with them. They turned out a really nice friendly bunch and one lady called Sheila is in the process of learning me to crochet. My mum did try years ago but I could never get the hang of it. Found my hands got quite painful after a while so not sure how much I will be able to do with my arthritis but will persevere. Going back next week anyway and she is going to get me to follow a pattern so that will be fun!
