Is this a sock or Stocking?

In my quest for peace and harmony this season, is my second sock syndrome really that or am I thinking about Christmas stocking?  When I decided to rip the first sock because it no longer fits me well.  Why you ask?  Ah, the joys of aging!  I'll leave it at that.

So I nipped the toe (because it was knit cuff-down) and started to rewind; got disgusted and grabbed a pair of needles and cast on using http://knitty.com/ISSUEspring06/FEATmagiccaston.html and began to increase for the toe.

Got out my handy-dandy sock template from the queen, Wendy Johnson.  Here's the link: http://media.wendyknits.net/media/Sock-Templates.pdf.  Or you can go to her blog, http://wendyknits.net/finished-work-free-patterns-tips/sub-page/.  She has several free sock patterns and different heels.  I know the sock template one is one that fits me well.

So I was off and running - not really- maybe in my mind.  Actually I was relaxed and knitting, enjoying time with hubby as we watched Madam Secretary.  Keeps the needles flying.  By the end of the evening I had gotten to the gusset.

Put it away even tho I was tempted to keep going.  Gotta get some rest so I can work.

So Monday evening after knitting on must projects, I picked up the sock again.  What is this compulsion?  Haven't knit a sock in over a year.  Was too hard on the hands last year.  Got thru the heel and now it's cuff time.  Hopefully, I'll find a good movie and I can finish the cuff.

Will I then have second sock syndrome again for the same sock?  tune in.....
