Somewhat sadly, that is our family motto.
Hey, new books! That's always fun - sounds like you have some deep reading ahead of you.
Great quote! I used to be that way with cds. When I was younger my mum would give me a few dollars for lunch. I figured out that if I went without lunch for a week I could buy a cd with my saved coins. I bought many cds this way.
Now of course, my weakness is books. Books are food for the soul are they not? Especially the ones you have bought, Kim. Which will you read first?
I will be "using" the Concise Theology and I will begin reading both the nutrition book and the Packer prayer book. Piper will go on the shelf for a while.
