5 Things I Did In The Hobby Last Week

HELLO FELLOW COFFEE CARD ENTHUSIASTS!

*takes a sip*

I have been trying to set aside some time to put up new posts and it seems to be working....for now. I am in the final stretch of my first semester so I may need to stay focused to get to the finish line which is December 15th with no break in-between.

Yes, that means doing homework during Thanksgiving week.

I also have a busy life and basketball has started as well so a lot of things to do in such little time. I will say the first open court gym practice we had with all of the 3rd/4th grade girls in the district went really well and I see a lot of potential in this group regardless of who I actually get on my team at the end of the month.

It's been a challenge to say the least to balance everything out, but, I am holding my ground the best I can.

I was actually even able to do five things in the hobby last week and here is what they were,

*pauses with a sip, then continues on*

I have only done three posts in this segment so far because I have been too busy to do this on a weekly basis, the last one was in June, but I wanted to let you know what this series is about if you don't remember or if you are a new reader.

This series is once again related/played on by Elon Musk's email to government officials in February 2025 asking them about what five things they did.

Also, once again, this is not about politics. I just liked the idea.

*its best to never post politics, make friends, not enemies*

Here we go onto my five things.

1.As always, I did a lot more social media posts across my planet of them. I started doing Rodney Hampton, Eli Manning updates along with small mail day posts on there since it's much faster to send out a social media message than putting up a big blog post.

If you want to catch up on stuff you missed out on, here is a list of all of my social media channels:Cards Over Coffee YouTube Channel is for cards:

Cards Over Coffee - YouTube

Matt's World Of Fun YouTube Channel is for everything else:

On top of this, I have two Facebook accounts, Cards Over Coffee and Sport Card Collectors,

Bluesky as Cards Over Coffee

There you have that. Now go check me out on those!!

2. I finally was able to update some numbers on TCDB and add new cards to a few of my collections.

3. I started work on getting together some WNBA cards to hand out to my girls when the basketball season ends. It was a big hit last year and I think it's another way to grow the future of collecting.

4.I started to initiate some pwe trades and even a bigger trade for a card I want pretty bad. Let's see if I can pull it off.

5. Some Christmas piles have been added to. I just need to find the time to get these in the mail box and on their way out. It's very time consuming to pack these up.

And there you have it. Five things I did in the hobby last week.

I hope to keep this series going when I have time to post on it.

*takes this posts final sip*
