My blanket is finished! I don't really know the measurements but it's much bigger than a lap. I added a crochet border (my first ever!) to clean up the edges. The yarn was nothing special and is very soft but a bit heavy. I used larger needles (size 10) so the blanket has a lightweight quality to it because the stitches are larger. The colors are masculine because I knitted it for Mr. Grumpbump. However, my grandmother is in the hospital having surgery and I've decided to give it to her. She's not picky about colors.

I'm in love with my Wii game, Just Dance 2. I wish they had more downloads for it. I love pop music, but I can't listen to it in the car. In the car, I like to listen to talk radio; I think it has something to do with conversation. But when I'm working late or leaving work for the day, I pull out my earphones and my phone is my music player. Pop music puts me in such a good mood and instantly erases the stress of the day. Funny, it only works after work - before work just makes me depressed because I'm stuck inside all day.
Mr. Grumpbump says I take too many pictures of my cats. He's right.

Nothing new on our house purchase. At this point, we would just like to be in the house by June. How great would it be to have a pool during the hottest part of the year? So excited.....
