Mother daughter book. I bought one for a friend that had a baby last year and its recording memories like a keepsake book. I want to find another one to do with my own mum.

Care to share what books? Where do you order your books from?
I used to go to amazon and then book depository as they had free shipping. But then i found nowadays its just cheaper to get good books from the op shop or library withdrawn sales.

My reading tastes have changed somewhat. New books can be so expensive.

The remaining books of John MacArthur's New Testament commentaries that I don't have. Same for John Calvin's commentaries.

John Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion.

Leon Morris' The Gospel According to Matthew.

David Limbaugh's Emmaus Code.

Then a handful of books on igo/baduk strategy.

MacArthur's books I ordered from his ministry's website. External sellers charge much more. Other stuff I typically buy via Amazon which sometimes, often times, involves The Book Depository as well.

No I'm not and yes they are. They're just for personal use in study. I feel drawn and called to apologetics so right now I am preparing myself intellectually and spiritually to fulfil that.

This is igo/go/baduk/ithasalotofnames;

It's an ancient Chinese game and the aim of the game is to essential encircle your opponent's pieces and end up controlling the most amount of surface on the board.

I'm not the best at explaining the amount of possibilities, so here's an excerpt from Wikipedia;

There is significant strategy involved in the game, and the number of possible games is vast (10^761 compared, for example, to the estimated 10^120 possible in chess), despite its relatively simple rules.

So there are more possible games than atoms in the observable universe. Kinda cool :)

All different kinds. Swiss Army knives, Spyderco, Emerson Kershaws, large size "pig stickers", survival knives of various kinds.

Not surprising. You always struck me as a knife person.

lol I thought they were lollies at first...
hmm. I suppose its like a board game version of Szun Tsu art of war.
Well I am doing battle in my war room prayer closet. My strategy is to surround my mum with love on all sides so that she will know who Jesus is. I just got an email today from a friend inviting me to carol singing. She says they are just going to three addresses, but I just had the thought that we could go to my house where mums at home and start singing carols and bring her the gift of salvation.

I need back up angels and an anointed preacher.

I never got around to buying a Spyderco. I really like them, though.

I only really use one knife now and it's just your typical 4 inch fixed-blade bushcraft knife.

Never time I buy one I am just going to get stainless steel though because carbon steel edge retention and sharpening isn't worth the added maintenance.

Well I got three on my list.
Not sure I need the hankies now, I can just wash the ones I have. They're more like prayer cloths I think. I borrowed a hanky off an elder who was praying for me. I just need to remember to take them with me when I go out.

phew its busy out there. I will go to the dairy later on..time for lunch.
not sure what the fascination with weapons is...methinks an american thing. When I go shopping its usually for clothes and food. Although this year I've been buying lots of plants.

You like to live dangerously :D

It's who I am. Haha. :D ...yeah, my lists aren't always as hardcore as that one, folks. I do have normal, civilized lists that contain things such as bread or kitty litter. Lol

New desktop computer with i7 and good GPU that's kinda compact in size for my CAD work.
Hydroponics system I want to build for fun since our family wants lettuce, and I'm experienced with hydro. Air pump, nutrients, timer, pvc pipe, and the works.
Business..... Never stops. Need a ton of wood that cost $30 per board foot, machinery, electronics, and stuff. Have to totally revamp everything, setup second CNC machine, and think of buying a third one. Past that nothing. I don't need anything, and don't really want anything.

Various stuff and things not worth mentioning. The more important stuff would be:

New vehicle
Concealed weapons permit
A firearm
New boxing gear

Well, its official.... a Miss S and Toro match is now out of the question..... she will either beat me like one of those...... rocky.... clown.... punching things..... or shoot me. If she gets a new car, it means she wont be afraid to use the old one to run me down.

:sorry:

Im against being compost for her precious carrots. :|
