Congratulations, Cory!

Thank you, I'll be interested to see what my first $2.00 raise check will be.

So, I sold a Micheal Jordan sports card for $26.00, a Larry Bird card for $59.00, and a Rickey Henderson card for $58.00 on eBay. The buyer had to pay for the shipping. These were all of my father's cards, and he said I could keep 50% of the pay for doing the work to put them on eBay.

Between CDs and trading cards, I still have 14 listings on eBay. A lot of them have been relisted several times, but I usually take $2.00 or more off when that happens.

Good evening everyone! Just one more day then it's my weekend again. Today was interesting, the air compressor was down at work so no one could work on their machines for a good half hour. Even the ovens were down so literally nothing was being made aside from some wire since one of the machines that cut wire for the shelves was still up and running. I just went around and did a safety audit since no one could work on anything and there was nothing for me to enter into the computer.

First drive of the year is a fact! ❤️

Good afternoon everyone! Sadly another weekend is soon to be ending, but they can't last forever. Recently I heard that one of the people I watched on Youtube passed away... His name was Mark Nichols but he was better known as "Hobo Shoestring." He would hop trains and talk about his days on the rails. He unfortunately went to the ER since he had some medical problems, but he was discharged. He apparently was said to be a bit delusional, they found him in the lake outside his apartment. He probably was walking outside and fell into the lake.

All packed and ready for my trip to Bali tomorrow! Can’t wait

Hope everyone has a great week!

It looks like I'll be paying off a new (used) car soon because my car got in a slight crash in December and the repairs are so great that it has to be totaled. I'm thankful I'm getting my tax return soon; my upcoming check is the first one I got my $2.00 raise.

Good evening everyone! I fell asleep after work and woke up about an hour ago oops.

I'm only getting $100-something back this year.

I got $600-something back instead because they were compensating me for not making enough money, and my first $2.00 raise paycheck is this Thursday. I just got $100 as well for part of our garage sale profits. I have stuff sitting on eBay waiting to be sold, and I plan to take the remaining CDs I own to a resale entertainment store and see how much they'll give me. Insurance is giving me $5000 for my car.

I'm not trying to brag, but I'm just happy that I'm finally sitting pretty.

Hey everyone, Black Sails and Vikings just recently landed on Netflix, and me and my father plan to watch both of them. We're watching Black Sails first, which has 4 seasons and we're watching Vikings next which has 6 seasons.

So, I made $100 on the CDs I sold mentioned above, it was a full box worth of them. I'm satisfied with my earnings.

How's everyone?

How's everyone?

I'm doing great, I worked overnight last night then got about 5 hours of sleep afterward. On Monday I have to turn in a lost car title form to get my car title back since it's getting sold to insurance.

You?

 

[cpvr]

How's everyone?

Good. How are you?

 

[Liam]

I'm back from holidays

How's everything going?

Black Sails looks exciting!

Gotta get my sci-fi soap opera fix with Rebel Moon first though!

 

[Cory]

I'm back from holidays

Black Sails looks exciting!

I enjoyed the show the first time I watched it all the way through, and I expect I'll enjoy it the second time through. It's got a good plot, interesting characters, and cool scenes in general.

Howdy everyone? How is your week going so far?

 

[Cory]

How is your week going so far?

Pretty good, I'm glad I'm finally getting this car stuff taken care of so I can get $5000 from insurance to help me buy a new car. I'm going to buy a used car because I don't have the money to buy a brand-new car, but I'm clueless about what type of used car I should buy.

Good afternoon everyone! I had some bad luck this morning, so I decided to stay home for the day. Maybe it's a dumb reason to stay home, but honestly I think these things usually come in threes so there's no telling what else could have happened if I went to work. First off, I stepped in cat urine since my cat Gizmo peed on our rug by the door that leads to a unfinished room that leads to our bathroom, despite his litter box being cleaned. He's picky about the litter we get sometimes, so I guess he didn't like the litter we got. Then I had put my water bottle in my lunchbox yesterday so I could easily carry my lunchbox and anything else I thought about getting at Target since I went there with my best friend after I got off work. The water bottle was opened and it leaked in my lunchbox. :\ I'm afraid I'll get a talking to at work though tomorrow, but I just have to be careful about calling in again since I don't have PTO and didn't have any left to cover this call in. I wonder if I'm starting to feel a bit of burnout at my job... Lately I've been more irritated than usual and I wonder if it has something to do with that.
