| Too bad I will not see any of it till at least Tuesday what with Monday being a holiday here. Going to have to hit up Unitrade on Tuesday as well. Might call them tomorrow to see if they are open as the day is weird in that it isn't a mandatory paid holiday like Christmas or Canada Day. Some places are open. It is just a case of hit or miss. _________________ Ignorance isn't bliss... it is just ignorance.

| Believe me am looking forward to the week. 1000 GB kiloware, a big box of stuff from Bear and a large number of the other purchases from eBay should be arriving over the week. Hoping for a present each day next week and a few the week after. _________________ Ignorance isn't bliss... it is just ignorance.

| Those boxes from Bear are something else, Ross. I bought two of the 2.6 pound and one of the 6 pound boxes and I sorted and sorted and sorted. I haven't touched them for probably a week or two now as I just needed a break from the sorting to at least make an effort at getting a toehold on some soaking.
For some reason while killing time before making a short road trip to go see Grand Funk last night I pulled out a 5000 U.S. and started sorting just to kill time while The Redhead readied herself.
Don't know what I'm going to fool with today but for certain at least pick up and sort to proper glassine the US that is sorted and spread across the stampin' room.
I do know I badly need a supply run to the Wal-Mart ... my envelope supply is virtually depleted so need some envelopes to make Postmark Pursuit cachets and for mailing and I'm almost out of the 120 pound card stock for the cachets as well. I could also use a few more binders as I have a butt load of album pages on decent paper and laser printed I've yet to hole punch and bind. |

| Well, since I work outside and it has been raining most of the day, I decided to work on some stamps.
Went throught the package that Mr Gordon sent me, and hinged all of them in there proper places in the GB Album.
Used Pure Citrus on some US self-adhesive stamps, removed a bunch of stamps that were giving to me by several of my relatives and friends. After drying, I hinged them in my US album, and since I am so nice of a father, I have an extra US album that I keep up to date also. Whenever something happens to me, both my kids will both have a US album. Just thinking, they will have to fight over the rest of collection. Thats there problem, not mine......lol
Now that US and GB is up to date, now back to sorting the 10,000 or so worldwide stamps I have in a box. Glad they are all off of paper now, makes it a little easier. Im sorting them by countries, and putting them in small ziploc bags. Once I am finished that, I will have some trading material ready to go. |

| Yesterday's stampy? Not a danged thing! I went home yesterday and enjoyed an evening unplugged with a couple of cold beers, a loud lawn mower and some good old fashioned south Louisiana heat and humidity! Heck, I even did something I've been VERY slack about the past six months or so - I even put in a workout with my sledgehammer and tractor tire!
Gonna pull another unplugged day soon too - time to yank up the summer garden and get that fall stuff in the dirt! |

| What's stampy you ask? This morning I put on to soak the LAST of all the Latin America that's been sorted to date! (There's the issue of 6 pounds of Bear Box sitting in my stampin' room but that's another story)
So once dried they can go onto pages and into the binder and voile'! Caught up on Latin America!... no, wait... what?
The other stampy thing I did this morning was buy 50 Vario sheets (100 pages). I can get some countries stock onto pages but not all - when the page in the binder gets full that's it - I've burned through 50 Vario pages to organize Latin America, Scandinavia, Ships and Nudes & Pin-Ups. |
