Watermelon Socks & Tile

I finished a slew of projects this weekend. I told myself that when these particular ones were done, I would only work on stuff for me. I always get seduced by socks and I've knit a few pair, but I don't have one pair to call my own. So, in the coming weeks I hope to crank out socks, pour moi.

There is one catch. I'm dying to read a book. I'm thinking a time out may be coming my way. I may put my needles down. I've been thinking and thinking. Honestly, I'm a little afraid to stop. What if I never pick them up again? What if I fill my time with something else? I'll figure it out as I go.

I started socks on Sunday night. Here's where I was yesterday:

I finished turning the heel this evening. I've only the race to the toe. I call these my watermelon socks.


The floor is coming along for those interested in DIY stuffs. I still can take absolutely no credit for anything associated with this floor. Hubby has done it all and done it well.

Roxie's eating. What else is new?!

There's no grout yet and the grout will be the same color as the tile, so when it's done you won't see the cracks as well. I like it.
