No jury duty today. No jury duty the rest of the week. Whoo-hoo!

I'm so happy to see Lucy is settling in nicely with Wendy. IMHO, Siamese (or part-Siamese) cats are the best - they "talk" to you and they have such distinctive personalities.

Finished the second croc sock last night. They match well enough, I guess. Now I have to decide the best (most deceiving) way to wrap three pairs of socks for my mom's birthday present. Normally I put socks in a scarf-sized box, but I need something more unusual this time.

I like making packages look like what they are not. One Christmas I gave my mom a gift certificate but wrapped it in a big big box with bags of those plastic stuffing pellets in the bottom to give it more weight.

The problem here is, I have to send the socks through the mail, so I don't want to add excess weight or bulk so I have to pay more or have a hard time finding a box to send it in.

I may look up a link for those origami boxes again, and get some stiff paper, and do that...
