Books I Plan to Finish Someday...

"The best laid plans of mice and men.........are about equal."

[These are now sorted into a list of  abbreviations that I use in the CTT writings...hope it helps. I have also begun filing previous years books in their own file--to shorten file access times. I have all of 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, and most of 1995books.

New acquisitions...(and old "I brought them in from the garage" ones!)...

Also, note that these books are NOT uniformly cited in the technically-correct fashion, but only to the extent needed to identify/find them yourself.

Note: as of Oct 2015 I will no longer be putting entries into this log for books purchased from Logos software [list of my Oct 2015 holdings at logos6_2015OCT.pdf ,578 pages, 8600+ entries, 3.3M]. Since citations from those works will be in-full, there will be no need for abbreviations and name-anchors. I will periodically post the purchase history somewhere (Logos_Order_History_2020MAY29 for now), though, as I can--so readers can see electronic resources what I find worth investing in.

What is new with the May 18/2020 update, is that several of these books were purchased with funds from Tank support gifts, from treasures in His family (smile)!
