A Heavy Sigh

I am in the knititng dolldrums now. I am back at school and working too, longer hours per day, between a little under 12 hours and 14 hours, and the lack of energy extounds me. But between working on one of those cowl/hoodie things and a pair of purple socks for my friend, guess which one is not winning...Both! I really want to work on the cowl but really have to knock out the socks. The only problem is that my friend is a permanent purple devotee, even down to describing purples as too red or too blue. And after making hand warmers and a cowl/hoodie for her, I am in a major purple haze funk... As you can tell, I am really hating purple after the holidays and I am only on the first leg part of the first FLOGGING sock! I have to force myself to pull the sock out of the bag its in to freakin knit on. I am soooo tired of purple that I feel I am bleeding purple out of my eyes. I am so tempted to mail her all my purple yarn for someone else to use, that's how sick I am of it! But once I get these stupid socks out of the way, I am soooooo looking forward to some other color than bloody purple.
