Cleaning Out My Closet
How did I spend my Sunday afternoon on my final weekend of summer? Surfing in Santa Cruz? No. Hiking in Half Moon Bay? Nope. Sailing in San Francisco? Not even close.
Try cleaning out and organizing my "incomplete set" cubby. It's actually pretty amazing how much stuff you can fit inside one of those Ikea cubbies.
Here's what everything looks like when it's all laid out:
What you're feasting your eyes on are thirty-plus sets that I'm currently working on. This list of sets includes sports ranging from baseball to hockey and covers everything from base sets to oddball sets. It was actually a little disheartening to come to terms with the sheer number of incomplete sets I'm currently attempting to build.
I considered breaking some of them down, but after much deliberation... I decided to persevere and start targeting one set at a time.
Some sets are only one card short, like these:
On the other hand, I'm over fifty cards short of completing this set:
I have plenty of player and team lots that I'd be willing to trade if anyone out there can help me finish off any of these sets.
If you don't have any singles from the sets above... how about these?
Wait. Those are just the baseball sets I'm building. Here are the wantlists for my other sports sets:
And believe it or not... I'm even working on a few non-sports sets:
Okay. Now I'm done. Actually there are a few other sets that I haven't added to my website yet. But as of right now, there are thirty-nine sets listed above, which should keep me busy.
What about you guys?Anyone else a little overwhelmed with set building projects?
Feel free to list some (or all) of the sets you're building in the comments below and maybe someone else will see it and be able to help you out.
That's a wrap for now. Thanks for taking the time to read this post. Happy Tuesday and sayonara!
