Happy New Year everybody!
It’s starting to sink in that my long two weeks of PTO to end the year is coming to an end. That’s going to mean a rough week at work. I’ve done a pretty good job of avoiding my emails. While that’s a good thing during my PTO… it’s not going to make a fun start to the week. I think people have been filling up my calendar for my first week back.
Hopefully I’ve caught up with my blog enough that I’ll have an easier time balancing business and blog in the coming weeks.
This is usually a busy time for me because I’ll be getting out my December monthly report, a report of the full year, and #mybestnine in the coming weeks. I have today and tomorrow to see what I can get done without work getting in the way. To add to that I have another review of a purchase from Ryan’s Vintage Cards to do, one from Classic Wax and something else on it’s way from Ryan too. January is going to be busy.
Hope you are enjoying your holiday weekend!
The Review
Here’s what happened on the blog last week:
- Monday: Scott Sullivan
- Tuesday: Derrick May, Jose Cardenal
- Wednesday: Vin Mazzaro
- Thursday: Darren Bragg, Purchase: Ryan’s Vintage Cards #4
- Friday: Buddy Groom
- Saturday: Sal Butera
- Sunday: Bert Roberge
It was another week of getting through the oldest stuff in the backlog. I did happen to have to Chicago Cubs posts for the #twofortuesday so that was nice. Plus I was able to get out another purchase review post from Ryan.
The Preview
Here’s what I have coming up for this week:
- Monday: Billy don’t lose my number…
- Tuesday: He’s a Mason…
- Tuesday: Riki Tiki Tavi…
- Wednesday: Pankovits bread crumbs…
- Thursday: Foster the people…
- Friday: As Thelma says, Jenks-ies…
- Saturday: Dandy Andy…
- Sunday: Low key Broberg…
Still on the track of getting the oldest of the backlog out. No themes that I could put together for this week though.
Other Notes
Nineteen returns is pretty good for a short week. This was actually the second week in a row that I got two old returns from on guy – Dave Johnson. It was funny because I got the first attempt back second. It was also a week for a TON of stragglers. I think this month in particular will have a bunch of stragglers when I do the review. Here’s this week’s list.
- Pat Listach – 560
- Mike Kingery – 534
- John L. Williams – 473
- Dave Johnson – 449 (the second return)
- Dave Johnson – 271 (the first return)
- Dennis Rasmussen – 203
