The Bliss of Nothing

I'm excited for this weekend because I have absolutely no plans whatsoever.  No work, travel or guests!  I love having things to do, but I just needed a weekend to recharge the batteries.  So the daylight hours will be family time and the evenings will be full of cardboard. 

The goal is to get out 20 packages on Monday morning.  It is a lofty goal, but I think it can be done. The timing should be perfect as I made a large purchase a few days back that had a lot of cards for some of my regular trade partners.  It is scheduled for delivery tomorrow!  

As we approach November I'm thinking about making it "No Purchase November." I have such a large backlog of cards and so much to sort that it will probably be a good idea just to get things in proper order. Also helps that the holidays are approaching so it will free up some cash.  


Hope everyone enjoys the game tonight! The Indians have to win a non Kluber start.

  1. No purchase November? But what about the Black Friday sale?

    1. You know I didn't even find that much last year. COMC is usually only good for my WVU collection.

  2. I didn't spend a single cent on cards this month. Yet, with my stash of unopened packs, my birthday being the 18th, and a couple of trades, I still brought in 357 new cards this month.

    Scratch that. When checking my excel chart I realized I purchased 4 cards this month. I should have realized it as I have a window open composing a post about the very cards. Duh!

    1. Buying cards is so ingrained in my daily habits that sometimes I'll just go on eBay without even thinking about it and make an order. Taking some time off is good every once in a while. I usually do November to save some money for the holidays.
