Buttons for Eyes and Other Mothers

Watching:  Coraline on DVD

Our daughter loves the movie Coraline.  I find it quite peculiar.  I wonder what the creators of this movie were on when they came up with some of their ideas.

Two packages in the mail today - both trades with TCDB members.

First, a PWE hockey trade with vanoirm - our first trade.  This trade included cards for 1) sets, 2) Blackhawks and 3) Michigan.  Cards going toward sets include one 1990-91 Pro Set VAR, two 1991-92 Pinnacle, two 1991-92 Pro Set, and five 1992-93 Upper Deck.  Slowly chipping away at the Pro Set ERR and VAR cards.  I love the Pinnacle set.  Apparently, I am in the minority as this set carries a 5.4 rating on TCDB - 5.6 now :)



The vanorim trade also included two Eddie Belfour cards to go toward the Blackhawks collection.  Belfour is my all-time favorite Hawk.  Loved his fire.  I still have the custom jersey I received in '93 while still in high school.  I have Dallas and Toronto jerseys as well.



The vanorim trade wraps up with some Wolverines. 



The second package was a PWE football swap with AwgyDawgy.  This was our third trade.  All of the cards go toward the Michigan collection.



Michigan Wolverine collection additions -  (Football (17): T. Biakabutuka, E. Grbac 3, B. Griese 5, S. Hutchinson, C. Perry 5, D. Terrell 2 -- Hockey: M.Comrie 1, B. Morrison 2, J. Norton 1, D. Oliver 1, S. Shields 1, M. Turco 2)

Blackhawks collection - 2 (E. Belfour)

  1. Love reading your intro's and noticing what's popular on the TV at the Amann household. We go through a similar thing here but the main difference is our two granddaughters have hijacked the remote so no telling what you'll see. All the best in 2019.
