Welcome to the next edition of 5 Things I Did In The Hobby Last Week. I almost got rid of this segment but decided I would keep it for now. Hopefully there will be more interaction, or it could be axed over the next few episodes.
For now, let's keep it rolling!
But, for those of you that are new to this segment, here is the background to it:
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/accomplishments they did for the week.
Also, once again, this is not about politics. I just liked the idea.
*its best to never post politics, make friends, not enemies*

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:
Matt's World Of Fun! - YouTube
On top of this, I have two Facebook accounts, Cards Over Coffee and Sport Card Collectors,
Twitter/X: Coffee Card Guy
Instagram account: Coffee Card Guy
Bluesky as Cards Over Coffee
There you have that. Now go check me out on those!
2. I finally sat down, did the numbers....
And updated them again!
3. I took some pictures for the blog to do some posts. Which by now you have read some of them.
4. I have been making sure to read all new blogs posts on my blogroll and trying to comment on as many as I can since I have been having extra time sitting around from shoulder surgery.
5. I haven't gotten a lot of mail days recently, so have been taking notes on what kind of posts I can do until my mailbox starts seeing cards again. Hard to trade with one arm and one stamp.
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*
Tell me five things you did in the hobby last week or make a comment on mine. I will make sure to read and comment back on all of them.
Have a great Tuesday!
