Sock Psychology!

Sock Musings:
As I was sitting in my favorite chair knitting on the last pair of mittens for the local Head Start Center, I started thinking about getting online and about the knitting that I am currently doing while online. I always keep something on the needles that is kind of mindless next to the computer. I can't just sit here and read e-mail, I have to knit!
Anyway, as I was thinking about gettting online, I started thinking about my current project, which is a pair of fraternal stripey sock for me, myself, and I. I just started knitting the heel flap during yesterday's e-mail session. As I thought about coming in and reading my email, I found that I was putting it off because of the heel flap. I mean really; slip, knit, slip, knit, slip, knit......boring!?? Well, be that as it may, I really do like the heel flap knitting, and I like the picking up and knitting of the gussett, too. Yet every time that I reach that point in a pair of socks, I find myself putting it off. What gives with that?! Is it because I want to prolong this part, rather than avoid it? as I first thought? hmmmmmmmm What to call this psychology of the sock??? Is it 'psockology'? Does that make me a Psockologist? or a Psockiatrist?
hee-hee-hee your guess is as good as mine! Psockotic is the likely answer!!
More knitting:
I am currently working on my last pair of mittens and then I will have to knit one more hat. Then the fun starts, the sewing up and weaving in. I had hoped to have all these little mittens and hats done for the Head Start Center before the snow started coming down. We haven't had a lot of snow yet, but we have had some. Hopefully, I will have the hats and mittens all done before the little ones get back from their holiday this week. Next year I am going to start earlier. But, the idea came to me late this year. Next year I will start when school starts and then I won't be rushing like I have this year. In fact, if the mood strikes I will make a few thru-out the year and not have as many to do in the fall! It has been fun, anyway. I am using RH in crayon variegated colors and making the hats and cuffs of the mittens from Bernat Super Value in matching/co-ordinating solid colors. Pics to be posted when they are all done and ready to deliver.
Well, back to the socks and the email for now, and finishing mittens; later.
