...I have sinned.
I just couldn't help myself.
Oh, just what is a daughter to do? *wailing*
I know I broke the cardinal rule regarding them today.
But...But...But...if I had not done it, (insert pouty face), the digits would have been most uncomfortable. (and that would have lead to unfocused attention on the game & that would have been unacceptable)
Yes.... I am very well aware of the time, experience, patience & love that went into them. As you made what? At least twenty pair of them that year? (that was a lot of knitting on teeny tiny knitting needles - * respectfully bowing to you*)
I should not have abused them the way I did. *sad face*
I am sorry - my feet, however, are not - *trying to stop those very Feet from doing the Warm Happy Feet Jig*
But...But...But...it was cold and damp with a light misty rain. (looking for some sympathy here, folks)
Yes indeed, Maple Leaf Red is hanging her head in shame...
...For wearing the hand knit socks from her Mom - (argggg... it even hurts to write the actual words) - IN BOOTS, yup that's right - BOOTS. They were lovingly made to be used as slippers ONLY. * deep sigh*
As a matter of a fact, I chewed out the oldest son when he did this same thing last winter.
*showing Mom I am a good daughter & parent* (Here Maple Leaf Red is acting as a responsible adult = trying to get back on the "good side" of her mom *nodding* , however, MLR knows her Mom is not really falling for any of this at all *sigh*)
The socks are so precious & warm, I want them to last forever...but if I fear those feet of mine will force me to continue down this evil path of wearing them with shoes or boots, which in turn will lead to an early demise of my favorite socks - *tearing up at the thought*
...And I am pretty sure there are no more coming my way anytime soon. *crying* (And I am not a sock kind of knitter)
Wait...Wait...Wait... Each of my boys also received a hand knit pair of socks as well...Do you think any of them would notice if their "Gramma Sox" all of a sudden "went missing" due to some kind of laundry mishap? (and EVERYONE knows MLR is not very good with everyday household chores) *mischievously rubbing hands together, supporting a somewhat lopsided evil grin while Feet are continuing on with the Warm Happy Feet Jig*
