As I’m writing this, the area I’m living in is seeing it’s first snowfall. It’s not a dusting, but it’s not too much so it shouldn’t be a lot of work to shovel and all that. I love it when there’s enough snow to notice and there’s still snow coming down.
I was just going through some hockey cards to start getting some out in TTM requests and I realized it was a perfect situation. Snow coming down, checking out hockey cards, watching a movie, and hanging out in the room with all my memorabilia and autographs around me. I won’t say it’s the perfect day, but all the sudden it felt that way to me.
Hopefully this is the start of a great week ahead and work won’t be too busy.
Stay safe and healthy!
The Review
Here’s what happened on the blog last week:
- Monday: Mike “Iceman” Dunne
- Tuesday: Jim “Amazing Emu” Kern, John “Blue Moon” Odom
- Wednesday: Danny “The Bonham Bullet / Dr. Death” Darwin
- Thursday: “Sweet Lou” Lou Piniella, Pack vs. Pack: 90 Pacific Senior League
- Friday: Danny Espinosa “Dirtbag” – not really his nickname though
- Saturday: Al “The Mad Hungarian” Hrabosky
- Sunday: Bill “Toy Tiger” Stoneman
Another #nickname week in the books. This week had a lot of guys that were appearing for a second time. Unfortunately some of them with the same cards as well. What can I say, I have an addiction.
The Preview
Here’s what I have coming up for this week:
- Monday: Perkins-alating…
- Tuesday: The nicest guy in baseball…
- Tuesday: A Michigan Man…
- Wednesday: From the Fish files…
- Thursday: A Bubba…
- Friday: In the Nick of time…
- Saturday: Jim E…
- Sunday: Paup up shop…
I’m going back to random / first in, first out posts this week. You’ll see whatever I have to post that is the oldest that I haven’t posted. I think that will take us for the most part back to last June or July.
Other Notes
A little less came back this week with 15 returns. That’s still good for me though and closed out maybe the best week I’ve ever had. I can’t wait post the monthly report, hopefully later in the week.
I know I usually talk about my backlog here, which is now at 348, and how I might deal with it. I might actually consider not posting guys I’ve gotten multiple times. I think especially if I kind of doubled up on a lot of the cards I got back. But maybe I’ll sneak those in via multiple posts in the week. I get so busy though that I end up forgetting to post again sometimes. Hopefully work cooperates.
Have a great week!
