I love work-from-home days when it’s just me, my cats, a few cups of tea, and a list of do-able projects. While I don’t dress up for a day at home, I do get dressed, and it makes a world of difference to me mentally. It gives my day a definite start, it makes me unashamed to answer the door when the mail lady knocks, and it helps me feel productive rather than lazy. Not bad for a couple of knit jersey pieces!

But perhaps the best part is that I get to wear my favorite footwear all day: these magenta, yak wool house slippers that my sister-in-law brought back from Mongolia. They’re warm, they’re an awesome color, and they have a curling elf toe. What more could you ask for?
