{127} Sometimes I know exactly what I want to read next, but sometimes I have a hard time deciding. So I wrote down all of the titles of books I own but haven't read (64 of them! Goodness) and put them in a jar. When I can't decide what to read next, I'll draw a book to read. :) The idea came from here.

{130} Friday was a crazy day. It was chicken processing day on our farm (we processed and packaged 95 birds) and then in the evening, my younger brother graduated from the auto body program at the community college. The only pictures I took all day were at graduation...so this is my sister-in-law, my brother, Mom and Dad.
{131} A peek at what I've been knitting this week.
{132} I'm finally getting around to reading Jane Austen's unfinished works. I don't know why it has taken me so long! The fact that the Sandition inspired spin-off of LBD starts tomorrow was a big motivator. :)
Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there! I'm thankful that me and my mom have always been close. My mom is ridiculously selfless (a fact that my dad and I like to tease her about, because we tend to be a bit more self-centered :). She seems to know (and be liked by) everyone, and people love to talk to her. She can meet a stranger in a store and by the time she leaves, she knows their entire life story, just because she's the kind of person that people naturally strike up conversations with. I'm not like that at all, so it amazes me (we are very similar in other ways, though). So happy Mother's Day, Mom! And I hope you don't get me for posting the graduation picture of you on my blog. :)
Until next time,

Thank you for making my Mother's day a very special one. Yes, we are alike in so many ways, and you are a very lovable daughter. We have a lot of fun times together, and I'm thankful that God blessed me with you and your brother and your dad! MOM
