Memory Leak?

I have the following code that simply loops until _KeyEntered >= 0.  The application works and the CPU in task manager shows 0.

The problem I'm having is that the Mem Usage in Task Managers keeps incrementing at a fairly significant amount.  Why would it do that?

 ''' <summary>
    ''' This routine will loop until _KeyEntered is >= 0.
    ''' _KeyEntered of 0 = Enter Key, 1 - 8 = Function Key, 9 = frmMain was Closed.
    ''' </summary>
    ''' <param name="comArea"></param>
    ''' <returns></returns>
    ''' <remarks></remarks>
    Public Function VREADFIELDS(ByVal comArea As ComAreaDefinition) As Integer
        _KeyEntered = -1

        Do
            System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
            Thread.Sleep(1)
        Loop Until _KeyEntered >= 0

        comArea.NumErrs = 0
        comArea.LastKey = _KeyEntered

        Return _KeyEntered
    End Function
