Where is BillyKingsley these days?



The squirrel seems to have become a yeti.



Who else haven't we heard from in a while?

He's active on facebook, but haven't seen him on here or Forvm.

Thank you for thinking of me! I didn't think anyone would notice I was missing considering how little I actually contributed (LOL). For the last two years, I've been focusing solely on my trading card collection and blog. I have not added anything new to the coin/currency collection other than the random new issue US quarter that shows up in change in quite a while.
It doesn't help that our Jeep is dead leaving us with no car and the local shop, while it has a good selection and good prices, is not open very often, and not when we can borrow a family member's car.

Since I stopped posting I discovered that I really like blogging- my trading card blog is at the forefront but I do have blogs for each of my main hobbies. I started blogging in November 2014 so I guess I've been away longer than I realized. Time really can get away from you!

I do have a coin/currency blog but I last made a post back in March. I had scanned a whole bunch of newer additions but then my remote hard drive promptly crashed taking every scan and photograph I had made since October, for the past 2 months I've been working to recover what I can, but I still have a lot of work ahead of me.

On my blog most of what I post is my One From Every Country collection. It may not be very original but I enjoy it. Of course when my remote drive died it took my notes on what I had posted with it.
My Numismatic Blog
I had to mess with the spelling of the blog so I could get anything close to the name I wanted. If any of you have blogs please let me know so I can add them to the list on the right side of the page. I want to get back into posting, and in fact writing this post has inspired me, I'm going to go and do that a post as soon as I post this message.

I've been going so much with my trading card hobby- pretty much every day since Christmas 2013-that I've neglected my other hobbies and the forums that go with them. I need to fix that but my follow through is marginal at best so I can't say how often I will actually pop in and read/post. I figured out how to get on the forum from my smart phone (a gift I received on May 1st) so that should allow me to check in more often. Of course I had written up this reply, and when I went to post it, the phone autorotated as I tried to hit the Post button, so I lost it all, and had to come on my actual computer and do it!

I see some new names since I was last here, and I see they collect Romans, so that's always a good thing.

Like Mat said, I am always on Facebook- even though I don't really enjoy it anymore, it's the only way I have to contact some of my family members so it's always open on my computer.

Thanks again!

I feel like I saw a post from MacCrimmon recently (within the past month). But it may have been an older post in an old thread somebody had revived. A few of those revivals going around it seems.



If their yeti excursions are anything like my own, they will be back. As an old friend of mine used to say (he was 60 at the time, would be about 70 now), "Don't rush. It will happen when it's time."
