Why oh why??

Oh why oh why do I go on a mad cleaning spree when my MIL is coming over??? she already thinks I don't do stuff around the house. I mean come one Cortney why put your self out? Oh for fucks sake! (thanks stephie for the great line) Yes I should be cleaning right now....

As for knitting I've been working on a ton of stuff I finished a pair of super cute baby socks for Miss Jenna's new baby, a gift for Kath's party on the 1oth (can't post pictures cause you might see it kath but you'll like it!) I've also been playing around with some bag patterns, I think I'm on my way to writing one, I'll post it here when I'm done! anyway I must get my ass in to gear!

My first crocheted granny square 

I have a problem

and it is I'm addicted to America's next top model....It was on VH1 all day and I watched them all.......I love the girl from Detroit! I so hope she wins. I guess I'll find out on Wed. Yes I have no life, but hey what can you do. As for the knitting, I'm working on the pinwheel baby blanket..I'm going to make it bigger and use it as a rug in gooey's room. I'm using some vintage yellow and white acrylic from my stash. If it doesn't work out as a rug I'll just have a big ass yellow round blanket. I'm also working on Joe's red blanket and Branching out...I haven't touched BO in weeks I really have to pick it up again, I'm just not feeling it right now. I loving the mindless knitting of the pinwheel, but I'm sure I'll get sick of that and have to put it down. hmmm we'll see.
