That moment when

First of all-MERRY CHRISTMAS TO US ONE AND ALL! 

Weird conditions today in Alabama with temps at 70 degrees and rampant flash flooding.  I did have the pleasure of spending the day with my somewhat new girlfriend at home.  It had come up before about me collecting and trading cards but today was that moment when I got to explain my hobby.

I had saved a handful of packages to open today(Thanks to Angus,SpastikMoos, Stealing Home, and Uncle Tiny).  In the process of unearthing the goodies(post to come soon) I explained to her that these were just goodies that were sent to me "just because".  I think it surprises folks that many of us trade and send like we do.  She asked me do I send stuff to people just because and I told her some times I do.  I told her that was going to be my focus this year and then I showed her the organization I've been working on.

Gonna be a fun 2016
