Title: This is getting Crazy
Post by: trout on August 30, 2015, 12:45:53 PM
I have just done a bit of tidying up and have found all sorts of stuff.
I started this yesterday and have just about finished (I think)
I had a look through my albums and blue boxes chokka with slabs, various boxes and bags.
I have half finished projects every bloody where and masses of extra coins and slabs.
Maybe I need to "Focus" on just one project at a time , finish that one and start on another.
Trouble is I find other numismatic interests and wonder off into the wilderness with these :angel:
I blame RAM entirely for this when they pissed me off with the mass production of 25mm dollars and I dumped them :dash1:
The good thing about that is I have widened my interests and am finding some interesting, unusual and sometimes quite beautiful coins in the process.
Now if I could only sort all this bloody clutter and disorganisation out It would be fantastic.:yahoo:

Gawd I have just found a few Masterpieces in silver sets that I had forgotten about.
I thought I got rid of all my "Grannybait" ages ago :dash1:

Isn't weird the stuff you "Gather" and forget about with this hobby.

Sounds like an eBay clearance sale is in the wind.

Not a problem, but cut the corners off the cheque, so that when it bounces it won't poke your eye out. :)

Some things have been buried for so long I've really had to scratch my head in wonder. But I have stopped looking at each item I am now just packing everything up & I'll go through it more thoroughly when I come to unpack it.
I will have my own room to do with what I want.

Gee I thought I was in trouble there for a sec for some of the things I've sent until I read that you blame the RAM :heat:

But I know what you mean as I have way too much stuff and try and tidy up from time to time but then can't work out in what collection or where I want to put things so it ends with me getting annoyed and just chuckin it all back in the cupboard again, but I know where it is and funny how much stuff you forget you even had once you start these missions :angel:
