Truly a Knitter-with-a-capital-K

This morning I woke up early, and it being Sunday I decided to let my spouse sleep. So I thought I'd indulge in a little me time and work on my Monkey socks. I got all comfortable and curled up on the couch, me at one end with my socks and the laptop at the other end, and knit a heel flap without looking while scrolling through blogs about knitting with my feet. It was great. I had a really pleasant morning.

And now I'm going to spend the rest of my afternoon cleaning, organizing and rearranging to make room for the tapestry frame that has now made it home and been assembled. (We met up last night with the people who were kind enough to drive it home for us after Coronation.) This is going to involve much discussion, planning, cursing and many cups of tea. Hopefully at the end spouse and I will still be on speaking terms and the living room will look less like a teenager's bedroom. Did I mention that in addition to the tapestry frame my living room holds a regular set of furniture, our dining table, all of my knitting, yarn and fabric stash, my husband's complete collection of wargaming stuff, two laundry racks and all of my little brother's worldly possessions while he's in between college and his first job in September? This could be fun. Or not...
