Packing for Virginia

I'm getting ready to go to Virginia to house sit for my sister when she goes on vacation. Actually, she is going for 3 separate vacations and I am thinking about staying up there all summer. I'd like to spend more time with all my family up there and help out with the care of my folks and grandkids.

I'm getting out the worst of my UFO's and bringing them along. I know we be sitting around knitting and chatting and maybe the conversation will keep me from grousing about all the problems I am having with these UFO's.

I seem to have a lot of socks in various stages. There are several toes that need to be grafted and some that have to be unpicked and grafted correctly. I am definitely going to make the next socks the toe-up variety. I haven't so far because I decided I was going to make socks until I was comfortable with grafting...or at least could do it tolerably well.

I'm sure I can find a lot more projects to keep me busy and I am going not going to work on anything new until I have these done;)
