Knitting at the crack of dawn

I couldn't sleep this morning so I got up and went downstairs and started knitting around 5:20 AM on my red and white shawl. I'm not exactly sure just how many rows I knitted in 1 hour and 39 minutes but I now have 164 stitches on this shawl. The hearts on this shawl are really starting to make the shawl look nice. I find myself adding more hearts 2 rows after I finished a complete heart. The hearts are spaced fairly evenly over the shawl. I even have some interlocking hearts added in.

After I finished 1 hour and 39 minutes of knitting on this shawl I stopped to fix myself some breakfast, fold some laundry, and wash the dishes. Then I started in knitting on my Frankenstein Clown Socks. I now have the heel finished on the mate and have started working on the leg of the sock. I sat and knitted on these for 1 hour and 40 minutes. I completed 35 rows on this sock during this time.

Now that its 9:33 AM I need to put another load into the washer, make the bed (now that hubby is up), put the dishes away, then head off to the bank. Once I'm finished with the bank hubby wants to go and get his hair cut, get the oil changed on the car, pick up 2 new kennels at Petco for 2 of our dogs (the kennels they are sleeping in are just too small for them now), then go over to Wal-mart to look for 2 lamps (for our bedroom). After that, when we get home I can sit at my spinning wheel and spin up some more yarn, and weave on my weaving loom.

I know that I will be tired come 9:00 PM tonight! Well, I sure hope so anyway's.
