RecRef, it isn't traveling. Even if she contacted the floor, as long as she didn't pick the ball up before she stood, it still wouldn't be traveling.

Tony,
I am seeing a pass to herself.
She voluntarily released the ball, then tied her shoe, then picked up her pass to herself.

Putting the ball on the floor is no more a pass than it is a dribble. I don't find a rule prohibiting it.

Ah no, she didn't. This rule applies to a player who gains control of the ball while kneeling, sitting or lying on the floor.
As Padgett, if a player puts the ball on the floor, kneels and ties her shoe, stands, and then picks up the ball, she has not traveled.
