I'm calling my mommy

Tomorrow is the day I get the brake work done on my car. It's far more expensive an undertaking than Jenny and I were hoping for in the first few weeks of my unemployment, but is for my and every one else's (on the road anyway) safety. With that said, I have to wake up early again (not used to that being unemployed) and drive out to the dealership so they can tinker with the Escape. I don't want to spend all day there, so I did what everyone would do. I called mom.

Mom will come pick me up tomorrow morning. She will likely even feed and entertain me in some way. I'm blessed to have parents who still enjoy doing that. I'm excited to spend the day with her. I hope all of you have families that are as much of a blessing as mine.

Spending the day with my mom will put my other adventure on hold though. In my quest to read 11 books in 11 days (I need someway to fill my time) I'll be stopping at 3 for 3 to take a "brake" (get it, its spelled incorrectly for pause, but correctly for my car). I've read a book each of the last 3 days, but won't keep that task tomorrow. Hopefully on Friday I will finish another one. I chose 11 because that is how many I owned from my reading list that I had yet to read, though I own more books than that which I haven't read. Regardless, if you have any recommendations of good books (mainly ones that help the spirit grow in some way or encourage deep thinking) I'm more than willing to read them.
