Look at what I got for Mother's Day (a few days early).
Isn't it beautiful. Well at least it is functional. Now I can get all these dirty dishes done. Yes, I got my dishwasher repaired.
I am grateful we had the money to get it repaired. I am grateful I don't have to wash any more dishes by hand. I am grateful it could be repaired. I am grateful for all the people who create the dirty dishes.
Happy Mother's Day to me.

Eugene H. Peterson: A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society
Life changing. A study of The Psalms of Ascent. IF there were more than 5 stars, this would get 10. (*****)
Blue Like Jazz
Excellent in the line, the male Anne Lamont. (*****)

Also for mature audiences but a wonderful mystery and look at human nature. (*****)

Another should read. I really had some preconceived ideas about immigrants and Middle Eastern people that have been changed. (*****)

Mature audiences only but a good story. (****)

Have you ever gotten half way through a book and realized you'd read it before?
Jhumpa Lahiri: The Namesake
Loved this and am not sure why. It is a universal story about discontent and finding contentment. Descriptions are brilliant. I could smell the curry. (*****)
It took me a minute ... :), but if you're happy, I'm happy! LOL.
I got a decent working dishwasher for my big 50 (8 years ago), at my request, so I hear ya'! And it's worked fine all these years. Well, the door doesn't worked right since Madam B fell over the whole thing one night ... dangerous leaving that door open at night. I was in Tennessee at the time. But, oh well, everyone closes it now!

I got a dishwasher for Christmas! It's the first time I've had one in 12 years! I love it, and would hate to go back now that I'm spoiled. What a nice gift. When someone asks what I got for Christmas, I tell them 'Time' because that is what it has given me.
