Long time coming

It has been a long time since I posted last and I have been missing the conversation with myself.  I fade when my depression gets overwhelming.  So, here I am starting over again. 
I have recently gone through a startitis problem with socks.  Coincidentally Sock Bunny Knit and Fit is having a sockstravaganza event going on, so it is good timing.  I have already finished 2 pairs, but I have six seven more to finish up.  I even just started the pair in the picture this past weekend.  They are Socks on a Plane by Laura of the Knitgirllls made with a yarn I have never seen before (Schoppel in Wunderkleckse), but am enjoying very much.  I am also using Sock Rockets, which I have not tried before either.  The project keeps getting stuck on the join, which I am not too pleased about, but they are nice needles otherwise.

My oldest pair on the needles was started last year in January.  They are my HRH socks from the STR Sock Club.  I am not sure what to do with them.  I don't remember where I left off.  Should I rip back on the started heel, change the heel, and finish them up, or should I try to continue with what I was doing?  I did buy buttons for them and would like to see them completed.

I have 12 completed projects so far this year.  I started off with a shawl thing, but now that I don't want to wear shawls at work anymore and 2 of my shawls have gotten holes, I have switched to a sock thing.  I do wear my socks now to work and I need more selection.  I also did 4 hats for someone else.  It looks like I got into a hat thing, but that was only 1 weekend.

This is my start again, I have some ideas that I need to flesh out first before I will mention them.  Hello world!
