Volunteer Knitting

My mother has volunteered me to knit Christmas Stockings for her friend. I am knitting for a her daughter-in-law and her granddaughter. I love my mother and all, but I wonder if I'll even get any of my own knitting done if I'm constantly knitting for other folks. Not out of my own volunteering spirit. There is a lot of knitting yet to be done. I'm still working on that sweater ... and a scarf ... maybe socks ... lace. So many projects, so little time.
