It's my birthday!

 It's my birthday, and I will cry if I want to. I do want to (more reasons than one), but I will man up if only for this post. Normally I have this day's post predetermined with things that happened on September 16th. It's been a tradition on here since I began. I'd also highlight a few birthday binder guys of mine. I could whip out some of those guys and try to get them scanned. You know the likes of Robin Yount, Tim Raines, and Orel Hershiser. But, I'm not. Everything I want to drop in this post is on the "other" laptop. UGH! I hope to recover all of that data which includes my baseball stuff. Fingers crossed.

So, what will I post up tonight? 


Here are  a few vintages goodies from another of my OCT buds.





Here are a couple more from another OCT bud. This one also included some 1986 Topps Tattoos (of Braves) that I needed.

It was great those 2 packages came on back to back days. What are the odds 53' Bowmans on consecutive days. That felt like my birthday, but that was last week. My birthday is today. A sister sent me an Amazon card (she knows I hate that). Not just Amazon (which I do dislike), but that she is still sending me a gift. I went strait away and ordered up a couple of 100 9-pocket page boxes that arrived today. I did get a Cardbarrel order that I was able to scan so that will be what's on for Friday. Then I have the weekend to work on scanning other stuff if I can. My youngest daughter and my grandson are supposed to be coming up to visit me also. Now that is a birthday present. I will leave it there to keep it positive and will explain later.

  4. Happy belated, belated birthday. Sorry so late, it's been a rough 2 days. Not laptop-hassles rough but still rough.
