A few of you have asked if I finished those socks for my mom.
I didn’t. I showed them to her on Mother’s Day, and she seems to like them. She forgives me, because she’s forgiving in general, she loves me, and I have a good excuse.
Three good excuses, actually. I’ve barely been knitting at all lately, for the following reasons.
1) Work
We’re working on a huge case right now. HUGE! I just got home from work actually. At 12:20 am. How depressing.
2) The Move
You may be thinking “hey, so that condo you bought… when are you actually moving there?” In a week. I’m not remotely ready.
3) I have a boo-boo on my yarn finger.
I know, I’m a big baby. It’s not a bad boo-boo, but it’s on the finger I use to “throw” the yarn, so it makes the whole operation much more difficult.
The boo-boo is almost better and the move will be over by June 1 whether I like it or not. Work will be busy until I quit to go to law school. Ah well, just a few more months to go.

Hang in there, Emilee! The socks look great — what a nice rich red!

Those socks are fabulous! You’ll finish them when work lets up, you’re all moved in, and your finger feels better. In the meantime, give yourself a break.

You’ll get there! But I can so relate to #1 & #2. You have my sympathy!!

Congrats on going to law school! And the socks do look great. I’ve yet to muster the courage to attempt a pair.
